Convex sets appear in various mathematical theories, and are used to define notions such as convex functions and hulls. As an abstraction from the usual definition of convex sets in vector spaces, we formalize in Coq an intrinsic…

We define and study a family of distributions with domain complete Riemannian manifold. They are obtained by projection onto a fixed tangent space via the inverse exponential map. This construction is a popular choice in the literature for…

We consider sequences of symmetric $U$-statistics, not necessarily Hoeffding-degenerate, both in a one- and multi-dimensional setting, and prove quantitative central limit theorems (CLTs) based on the use of {\it contraction operators}. Our…

Here we analyze three dimensional analogues of the classical Crofton's formula for planar compact convex sets. In this formula a fundamental role is played by the visual angle of the convex set from an exterior point. A generalization of…

The Cauchy problem in $\mathbb R^n$ is considered for \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} u_t = \Delta u - \nabla \cdot (u\nabla v),\\ 0 = \Delta v + u. \end{array} \right. \end{eqnarray*} For each $n\ge 10$, a statement on stability…

For regularized distributions we establish stability of the characterization of the normal law in Cramer's theorem with respect to the total variation norm and the entropic distance. As part of the argument, Sapogov-type theorems are…

We consider the general case of an accelerating, expanding and shearing model of a radiating relativistic star using Lie symmetries. We obtain the Lie symmetry generators that leave the equation for the junction condition invariant, and…

The union of the particles of a stationary Poisson process of compact (convex) sets in Euclidean space is called Boolean model and is a classical topic of stochastic geometry. In this paper, Boolean models in hyperbolic space are…

A normalized univalent function is uniformly convex if it maps every circular arc contained in the open unit disk with center in it into a convex curve. This article surveys recent results on the class of uniformly convex functions and on…

We study the limiting distributions of Birkhoff sums of a large class of cost functions (observables) evaluated along orbits, under the Gauss map, of rational numbers in $(0,1]$ ordered by denominators. We show convergence to a stable law…

A rotating continuum of particles attracted to each other by gravity may be modeled by the Euler-Poisson system. The existence of solutions is a very classical problem. Here it is proven that a curve of solutions exists, parametrized by the…

We introduce an intrinsic notion of Hoelder-Zygmund regularity for Colombeau generalized functions. In case of embedded distributions belonging to some Zygmund-Hoelder space this is shown to be consistent. The definition is motivated by the…

The convex hull generated by the restriction to the unit ball of a stationary Poisson point process in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space is considered. By establishing sharp bounds on cumulants, exponential estimates for large deviation…

Convergence to stable laws in relative entropy is established for sums of i.i.d. random variables.

Motivated by problems of hyperbolic stochastic geometry we introduce and study the class of beta-star polytopes. A beta-star polytope is defined as the convex hull of an inhomogeneous Poisson processes on the complement of the unit ball in…

The convex and metric structures underlying probabilistic physical theories are generally described in terms of base normed vector spaces. According to a recent proposal, the purely geometrical features of these spaces are appropriately…

In many applications involving binary variables, only pairwise dependence measures, such as correlations, are available. However, for multi-way tables involving more than two variables, these quantities do not uniquely determine the joint…

Consider a pair of cumulative distribution functions $F$ and $G$, where $F$ is unknown and $G$ is a known reference distribution. Given a sample from $F$, we propose tests to detect the convexity or the concavity of $G^{-1}\circ F$ versus…

In this work we study a class of random convex sets that "interpolate" between polytopes and zonotopes. These sets arise from considering a $q^{th}$-moment ($q\geq 1$) of an average of order statistics of $1$-dimensional marginals of a…
