This note deals with the following problem, the case $p=1$, $q=2$ of which was introduced to us by Vitali Milman: What is the volume left in the $L_p^n$ ball after removing a t-multiple of the $L_q^n$ ball? Recall that the $L_r^n$ ball is…

We show that the hyperplane conjecture holds for the classes of $k$-intersection bodies with arbitrary measures in place of volume.

We consider a generalization of the hyperplane problem to arbitrary measures in place of volume and to sections of lower dimensions. We prove this generalization for unconditional convex bodies and for duals of bodies with bounded volume…

We prove new versions of the isomorphic Busemann-Petty problem for two different measures and show how these results can be used to recover slicing and distance inequalities. We also prove a sharp upper estimate for the outer volume ratio…

Eskenazis, Nayar and Tkocz have shown recently some resilience of Ball's celebrated cube slicing theorem, namely its analogue in $l^n_p$ for large $p$. We show that the complex analogue, i.e. resilience of the polydisc slicing theorem…

This article is a survey of recent results on slicing inequalities for convex bodies. The focus is on the setting of arbitrary measures in place of volume.

Upper bounds for the $L_p$-discrepancies of point distributions in compact metric measure spaces for $0<p\le\infty$ have been established in the paper [6] by Brandolini, Chen, Colzani, Gigante and Travaglini. In the present paper we show…

We prove several estimates for the moments of arbitrary measures on convex bodies. We apply these estimates to show a new slicing inequality for measures on convex bodies. We also deduce estimates for the outer volume ratio distance from an…

In this paper we introduce a new type of restriction problem, called the \textit{restriction problem with moments}. We show that the surface area measure of the sphere satisfies the $L^p$-$L^2$ restriction problem with moments if $1 \leq p…

We derive bounds for the ball $L_p$-discrepancies in the Hamming space for $0<p<\infty$ and $p=\infty$. Sharp estimates of discrepancies have been obtained for many spaces such as the Euclidean spheres and more general compact Riemannian…

Consider a closed Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ admitting a negatively curved Riemannian metric. We show that for every Riemannian metric on $M$ of sufficiently small volume, there is a point in the universal cover of $M$ such that the volume…

The normalised volume measure on the $\ell_p^n$ unit ball ($1\leq p\leq 2$) satisfies the following isoperimetric inequality: the boundary measure of a set of measure $a$ is at least $cn^{1/p}\tilde{a}\log^{1-1/p}(1/\tilde{a})$, where…

We show that given a real number $p<1$, a positive integer $n$ and a proper subspace $H$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, the measure on the Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, which is concentrated in $H$ and whose restriction to the class of Borel…

We prove that on an essentially non-branching $\mathrm{MCP}(K,N)$ space, if a geodesic ball has a volume lower bound and satisfies some additional geometric conditions, then in a smaller geodesic ball (in a quantified sense) we have an…

We consider $k$-dimensional central sections of the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$ (denoted $B_p^n$) and we prove that their volume are bounded by the volume of $B_p^n$ whenever $1<p<2$ and $1\le k\le (n-1)/2$ or $k=n-1$. We also consider $0<p<1$…

Complementing a recent observation of Newman and Rabinovich for $p=1$ we observe here that for all $0<p<2$ any $k$ points in $L_p$ embeds with distortion $(1+\e)$ into $\ell_p^n$ where $n$ is linear in $k$ (and polynomial in $\e^{-1}$).

This article investigates, by probabilistic methods, various geometric questions on B_p^n, the unit ball of \ell_p^n. We propose realizations in terms of independent random variables of several distributions on B_p^n, including the…

We show that the two-dimensional minimum-volume central section of the $n$-dimensional cross-polytope is attained by the regular $2n$-gon. We establish stability-type results for hyperplane sections of $\ell_p$-balls in all the cases where…

We study the slicing inequality for the surface area instead of volume. This is the question whether there exists a constant $\alpha_n$ depending (or not) on the dimension $n$ so that $$S(K)\leq\alpha_n|K|^{\frac{1}{n}}\max_{\xi\in…

We prove bounds for the covering numbers of classes of convex functions and convex sets in Euclidean space. Previous results require the underlying convex functions or sets to be uniformly bounded. We relax this assumption and replace it…
