For large $q$, does the (discrete) uniform distribution on the set of $q!$ permutations of the vector $(1,2,\dots,q)$ closely approximate the (continuous) uniform distribution on the $(q-2)$-sphere that contains them? These permutations…

Given a parametric polynomial curve $\gamma:[a,b]\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$, how can we sample a random point $\mathfrak{x}\in \mathrm{im}(\gamma)$ in such a way that it is distributed uniformly with respect to the arc-length? Unfortunately,…

We develop a systematic framework for constructing spherical harmonics on the two-dimensional unit sphere as superpositions of Gaussian beams whose poles form well-separated point configurations. The distributional and analytic properties…

We propose an extension of a result by Repetowicz et al. about Wick's theorem and its applications: we first show that Wick's theorem can be extended to the uniform distribution on the sphere and then to the whole class of elliptical…

We extend the notion of hyperuniformity to the projective spaces $\mathbb{RP}^{d-1}$, $\mathbb{CP}^{d-1}$, $\mathbb{HP}^{d-1}$, and $\mathbb{OP}^2$. We show that hyperuniformity implies uniform distribution and present examples of…

Testing uniformity of a sample supported on the hypersphere is one of the first steps when analysing multivariate data for which only the directions (and not the magnitudes) are of interest. In this work, a projection-based Cram\'er-von…

In this paper, we give a general formula to determine the quantization coefficients for uniform distributions defined on the boundaries of different regular $m$-sided polygons inscribed in a circle. The result shows that the quantization…

In this article, one investigates in a very general frame mass transference principles from ball to arbitrary open sets when the sequence of balls is distributed according to a finite measure. As an application of the main theorem, a mass…
