Using a probabilistic method, we prove that $d(d+1)$-connected graphs are rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a conjecture of Lov\'asz and Yemini. Then, using recent results on weakly globally linked pairs, we modify our argument to prove that…

The edge-of-the-wedge theorem in several complex variables gives the analytic continuation of functions defined on the poly upper half plane and the poly lower half plane, the set of points in $\mathbb{C}^d$ with all coordinates in the…

For integers $d \geq 2$ and $k \geq d+1$, a $k$-hole in a set $S$ of points in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a $k$-tuple of points from $S$ in convex position such that the interior of their convex hull does not contain any point…

Let $d\geq 2$ be a positive integer, $K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic not dividing $d$, $n\geq d+1$ a positive integer that is prime to $d$, $f(x)\in K[x]$ a degree $n$ monic polynomial without multiple roots, $C_{f,d}:…

We solve a randomized version of the following open question: is there a strictly convex, bounded curve \gamma in the plane such that the number of rational points on \gamma, with denominator $n$, approaches infinity with $n$? Although this…

In this work, the classical Borsuk conjecture is discussed, which states that any set of diameter 1 in the Euclidean space $ {\mathbb R}^d $ can be divided into $ d+1 $ parts of smaller diameter. During the last two decades, many…

A theorem of Bayer and Teichmann implies that if a finite real multisequence \beta = \beta^(2d) has a representing measure, then the associated moment matrix M_d admits positive, recursively generated moment matrix extensions M_(d+1),…

In this paper we propose a method to construct probability measures on the space of convex bodies with a given pushforward distribution. Concretely we show that there is a measure on the metric space of centrally symmetric convex bodies,…

In the paper a theorem of Piccard's type is proved and, consequently, the continuity of $\mathcal{D}$-measurable polynomial functions of $n$-th order as well as $\mathcal{D}$-measurable $n$-convex functions is shown. The paper refers to the…

The symmetric convex hull of random points that are independent and distributed according to the cone probability measure on the $\ell_p$-unit sphere of $\mathbb R^n$ for some $1\leq p < \infty$ is considered. We prove that these random…

The convex hull of N independent random points chosen on the boundary of a simple polytope in R^n is investigated. Asymptotic formulas for the expected number of vertices and facets, and for the expectation of the volume difference are…

Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number $d$ can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finite continued fraction $\frac{b}{d}=[d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}],$ with all partial quotients $d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}$…

In this note, as a particular case of a more general result, we obtain the following theorem: Let $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ be a non-empty bounded open set and let $f:\overline {\Omega}\to {\bf R}^n$ be a continuous function which is…

We adapt an argument of Tao and Vu to show that if $\lambda_1\le\cdots\le\lambda_d$ are the successive minima of an origin-symmetric convex body $K$ with respect to some lattice $\Lambda<\mathbb{R}^d$, and if we set…

Tverberg's theorem is one of the cornerstones of discrete geometry. It states that, given a set $X$ of at least $(d+1)(r-1)+1$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, one can find a partition $X=X_1\cup \ldots \cup X_r$ of $X$, such that the convex hulls…

We prove the following Helly-type result. Let $\mathcal{C}_1,\dots,\mathcal{C}_{3d}$ be finite families of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Assume that for any colorful selection of $2d$ sets, $C_{i_k}\in \mathcal{C}_{i_k}$ for each $1\leq…

It is well known that for a standard Brownian motion (BM) $ \{B(t), \;t \geq 0\}$ with values in $\mathbb{R}^d$, its convex hull $ V(t)=\conv \{\{\,B(s),\;s \leq t \}$ with probability $1$ for each $t > 0$ contains $0$ as an interior point…

In order to investigate minimal sufficient conditions for an abstract integral to belong to the convex hull of the integrand, we propose a system of axioms under which it happens. If the integrand is a continuous $R^n$-valued function over…
