A finite subset of a Euclidean space is called an $s$-distance set if there exist exactly $s$ values of the Euclidean distances between two distinct points in the set. In this paper, we prove that the maximum cardinality among all…
The Tammes problem delves into the optimal arrangement of $N$ points on the surface of the $n$-dimensional unit sphere (denoted as $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$), aiming to maximize the minimum distance between any two points. In this paper, we…
An exact upper bound on the sum of squared nearest-neighbor distances between points in a rectangle is given.
By using a quantum probabilistic approach we obtain a description of the extreme points of the convex set of all joint probability distributions on the product of two standard Borel spaces with fixed marginal distributions.
We point out that the field equations in 5D, with spatial spherical symmetry, possess an extra symmetry that leaves them invariant. This symmetry corresponds to certain simultaneous interchange of coordinates and metric coefficients. As a…
Consider the integer points lying on the sphere of fixed radius projected onto the unit sphere. Duke showed that, on congruence conditions for the radius squared, these points equidistribute. To further this study of equidistribution, we…
A point set $P \subset {\Bbb{R}}^d$ is {\it separated} if the minimum distance between any two points in $P$ is at least $1$. For $d \ne 4,5,$ we determine, for every $t_1,t_2 \ge 1$, and for $n$ at least a suitable $n_d$, the maximum…
In this paper we study the problem of maximizing the distance to a given point $C_0$ over a polytope $\mathcal{P}$. Assuming that the polytope is circumscribed by a known ball we construct an intersection of balls which preserves the…
The location of the unique supremum of a stationary process on an interval does not need to be uniformly distributed over that interval. We describe all possible distributions of the supremum location for a broad class of such stationary…
The isoperimetric problem asks for the maximum area of a region of given perimeter. It is natural to consider other measurements of a region, such as the diameter and width, and ask for the extreme value of one when another is fixed. The…
The theory of modular forms and spherical harmonic analysis are applied to establish new best bounds towards the counting and equidistribution of rational points on spheres and other higher dimensional ellipsoids, in what may be viewed as a…
This article gives an introduction to optimal transport, a mathematical theory that makes it possible to measure distances between functions (or distances between more general objects), to interpolate between objects or to enforce…
In this paper, we propose two methods of calculating theoretically maximal metamer mismatch volumes. Unlike prior art techniques, our methods do not make any assumptions on the shape of spectra on the boundary of the mismatch volumes. Both…
Consider two balls with radius $r>0$ whose centers are at a distance $2$, positioned symmetrically with respect to the origin in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$. Suppose that the initial velocities are independent standard normal vectors. When $r\to0$,…
We bound the number of incidences between points and spheres in finite vector spaces by bounding the sum of the number of points in the pairwise intersections of the spheres. We obtain new incidence bounds that are interesting when the…
For a distribution function $F$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a point $q\in \mathbb{R}^d$, the \emph{spherical depth} $\SphD(q;F)$ is defined to be the probability that a point $q$ is contained inside a random closed hyper-ball obtained from a pair…
The Tammes problem is to find the arrangement of N points on a unit sphere which maximizes the minimum distance between any two points. This problem is presently solved for several values of N, namely for N=3,4,6,12 by L. Fejes Toth (1943);…
Let's have $n$ points in the space such that the maximum distance between any of them is $a$. We prove that there exists a sphere of radius $r \leq a \frac{\sqrt(6)}{4}$ that contains in its interior or on its surface all these points.…
In [1], the author considered the problem of the optimal approximation of symmetric surfaces by biquadratic B\'ezier patches. Unfortunately, the results therein are incorrect, which is shown in this paper by considering the optimal…
We present a general mechanistic model of mass diffusion for a composite sphere placed in a large ambient medium. The multi-layer problem is described by a system of diffusion equations coupled via interlayer boundary conditions such as…
