We prove that any cyclic quadrilateral can be inscribed in any closed convex $C^1$-curve. The smoothness condition is not required if the quadrilateral is a rectangle.

We give a necessary condition on a geodesic in a Riemannian manifold that can run in some convex hypersurface. As a corollary we obtain peculiar properties that hold true for every convex set in any generic Riemannian manifold (M,g). For example, if a convex set in (M,g) is bounded by a smooth hypersurface, then it is strictly convex.
This paper proposes a coordinate-free controller to drive a mobile robot to encircle a target at unknown position by only using range measurements. Different from the existing works, a backstepping based controller is proposed to encircle the target with zero steady-state error for any desired smooth pattern. Moreover, we show its asymptotic exponential convergence under a fixed set of control parameters, which are independent of the initial distance to the target. The effectiveness and advantages of the proposed controller are validated via simulations.
We study the explicit relation between violation of Bell inequalities and bipartite distillability of multi-qubit states. It has been shown that even though for $Nge 8$ there exist $N$-qubit bound entangled states which violates a Bell inequality [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 87}, 230402 (2001)], for all the states violating the inequality there exists at least one splitting of the parties into two groups such that pure-state entanglement can be distilled [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 88}, 027901 (2002)]. We here prove that for all $N$-qubit states violating the inequality the number of distillable bipartite splits increases exponentially with $N$, and hence the probability that a randomly chosen bipartite split is distillable approaches one exponentially with $N$, as $N$ tends to infinity. We also show that there exists at least one $N$-qubit bound entangled state violating the inequality if and only if $Nge 6$.
Let $K$ be a convex body in $mathbb{R}^n$ and $f : partial K rightarrow mathbb{R}_+$ a continuous, strictly positive function with $intlimits_{partial K} f(x) d mu_{partial K}(x) = 1$. We give an upper bound for the approximation of $K$ in the symmetric difference metric by an arbitrarily positioned polytope $P_f$ in $mathbb{R}^n$ having a fixed number of vertices. This generalizes a result by Ludwig, Schutt and Werner $[36]$. The polytope $P_f$ is obtained by a random construction via a probability measure with density $f$. In our result, the dependence on the number of vertices is optimal. With the optimal density $f$, the dependence on $K$ in our result is also optimal.
The deviation of a general convex body with twice differentiable boundary and an arbitrarily positioned polytope with a given number of vertices is studied. The paper considers the case where the deviation is measured in terms of the surface areas of the involved sets, more precisely, by what is called the surface area deviation. The proof uses arguments and constructions from probability, convex and integral geometry. The bound is closely related to $p$-affine surface areas.
