We prove two results on convex subsets of Euclidean spaces invariant under an orthogonal group action. First, we show that invariant spectrahedra admit an equivariant spectrahedral description, i.e., can be described by an equivariant…

We present several refinements on the fluctuations of sequences of random vectors (with values in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$) which converge after normalization to a multidimensional Gaussian distribution. More precisely we refine…

We introduce a new notion of influence for symmetric convex sets over Gaussian space, which we term "convex influence". We show that this new notion of influence shares many of the familiar properties of influences of variables for monotone…

Motivated by the central limit problem for convex bodies, we study normal approximation of linear functionals of high-dimensional random vectors with various types of symmetries. In particular, we obtain results for distributions which are…

We introduce and initiate the study of new parameters associated with any norm and any log-concave measure on $\mathbb R^n$, which provide sharp distributional inequalities. In the Gaussian context this investigation sheds light to the…

In the present work we suggest a general covariant theory which can be used to study the stability of any physical system treated geometrically. Stability conditions are connected to the magnitude of the deviation vector. This theory is a…

This work is concerned with linear inverse problems where a distributed parameter is known a priori to only take on values from a given discrete set. This property can be promoted in Tikhonov regularization with the aid of a suitable convex…
