We establish the Gaussian Multi-Bubble Conjecture: the least Gaussian-weighted perimeter way to decompose $\mathbb{R}^n$ into $q$ cells of prescribed (positive) Gaussian measure when $2 \leq q \leq n+1$, is to use a "simplicial cluster",…
The geometric mean is shown to be an appropriate statistic for the scale of a heavy-tailed coupled Gaussian distribution or equivalently the Student's t distribution. The coupled Gaussian is a member of a family of distributions…
We present a method, based on the correlation function of excursion sets above a given threshold, to test the Gaussianity of the CMB temperature fluctuations in the sky. In particular, this method can be applied to discriminate between…
High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to spherical, Euclidean and…
Symmetry is one of the most general and useful concepts in physics. A theory or a system that has a symmetry is fundamentally constrained by it. The same constraints do not apply when the symmetry is broken. The quantitative determination…
Based on the ideas of {\it quantum extension} and {\it quantum conditioning}, we propose a generic approach to construct a new kind of entanglement measures called {\it conditional entanglement}. The new measures, built from the known…
The cosmological dynamics of gravitational clustering satisfies an approximate invariance with respect to the cosmological parameters that is often used to simplify analytical computations. We describe how this approximate symmetry gives…
Context. In previous work, we developed a quasi-Gaussian approximation for the likelihood of correlation functions, which, in contrast to the usual Gaussian approach, incorporates fundamental mathematical constraints on correlation…
A geometric framework for quantum statistical estimation is used to establish a series of higher order corrections to the Heisenberg uncertainty relations associated with pairs of canonically conjugate variables. These corrections can be…
Joint estimation and scheduling for sensor networks is considered in a system formed by two sensors, a scheduler and a remote estimator. Each sensor observes a Gaussian source, which may be correlated. The scheduler observes the output of…
In this paper we investigate the reverse isoperimetric inequality with respect to the Gaussian measure for convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. While the isoperimetric problem for the Gaussian measure is well understood, many relevant aspects…
It is argued that the standard quantum mechanical description of the Bell correlations between entangled subsystems is in conflict with relativistic space-time symmetry. Proposals to abandon relativistic symmetry, in the sense of explicitly…
In this paper we study some relationships between polyhedral convex sets (PCS) and generalized polyhedral convex sets (GPCS). In particular, we clarify by a counterexample that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the separation of a…
In this paper we study Cartesian products of graphs and their divisorial gonality, which is a tropical version of the gonality of an algebraic curve. We present an upper bound on the gonality of the Cartesian product of any two graphs, and…
We provide a sharp quantitative version of the Gaussian concentration inequality: for every $r>0$, the difference between the measure of the $r$-enlargement of a given set and the $r$-enlargement of a half-space controls the square of the…
We revisit Royen's proof of the Gaussian correlation inequality from a supersymmetric point of view. Many key elements in Royen's proof of this inequality have natural geometric interpretations in terms of supersymmetric dimensional…
Although a system is described by a well-known set of equations leading to a deterministic behavior, in the real world the value of a measurand obtained by an experiment will mostly scatter. Accordingly, an uncertainty is associated with…
Consider an infinite-dimensional linear space equipped with a Gaussian measure and the group $GL(\infty)$ of linear transformations that send the measure to equivalent one. Limit points of $GL(\infty)$ can be regarded as 'spreading' maps…
We provide theoretical and empirical evidence for a type of asymmetry between causes and effects that is present when these are related via linear models contaminated with additive non-Gaussian noise. Assuming that the causes and the…
We prove a rigorous inequality estimating the purity of a reduced density matrix of a composite quantum system in terms of cross-correlation of the same state and an arbitrary product state. Various immediate applications of our result are…
