For a convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ the mean distance $\Delta(K)=\mathbb{E}|X_1-X_2|$ is the expected Euclidean distance of two independent and uniformly distributed random points $X_1,X_2\in K$. Optimal lower and upper bounds for…
In this paper we study general highest weight modules $\mathbb{V}^\lambda$ over a complex finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We present three formulas for the set of weights of a large family of modules…
We consider random orthonormal polynomials $$ P_{n}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^{n}\xi_{i}p_{i}(x), $$ where $\xi_{0}$, . . . , $\xi_{n}$ are independent random variables with zero mean, unit variance and uniformly bounded $(2+\ep_0)$-moments, and…
The aim of this note is to connect a reversed form of the Gross logarithmic Sobolev inequality with the Gaussian maximum of Shannon's entropy power. There is thus a complete parallel with the well-known link between logarithmic Sobolev…
We prove various extensions of the Loomis-Whitney inequality and its dual, where the subspaces on which the projections (or sections) are considered are either spanned by vectors $w_i$ of a not necessarily orthonormal basis of…
Among other things, we prove that, for a doubling weight $w$, $0< p\leq\infty$, $r\in{\mathbb N}_0$, and $0<\alpha <r+1 - 1/\lambda_p$, we have \[ E_n(f)_{p, w_n} = O(n^{-\alpha}) \iff \omega_\varphi^{r+1}(f, n^{-1})_{p, w_n} =…
Let G=SO(n,1) and Gamma a geometrically finite Zariski dense subgroup of G which is contained in an arithmetic subgroup of G. Denoting by Gamma(q) the principal congruence subgroup of Gamma of level q, and fixing a positive number \lambda_0…
We consider orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle with respect to a weight which is a quotient of $q$-gamma functions. We show that the Verblunsky coefficients of these polynomials satisfy discrete Painlev\'e equations, in a Lax form,…
Let $f$ be analytic in the unit disk and $\mathcal{S}$ be the subclass of normalized univalent functions with $f(0) = 0$, and $f'(0) = 1$. Let $F$ be the inverse function of $f$, given by $F(w)=w+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}A_nw^n$ defined on some…
The illumination conjecture is a classical open problem in convex and discrete geometry, asserting that every compact convex body~$K$ in $\mathbb R^n$ can be illuminated by a set of no more than $2^n$ points. If $K$ has smooth boundary, it…
We introduce the notion of "hypergeometric" polynomials with respect to Newtonian bases. These polynomials are eigenfunctions ($L P_n(x) = \lambda_n P_n(x)$) of some abstract operator $L$ which is 2-diagonal in the Newtonian basis…
A central problem in discrete geometry, known as Hadwiger's covering problem, asks what the smallest natural number $N\left(n\right)$ is such that every convex body in ${\mathbb R}^{n}$ can be covered by a union of the interiors of at most…
Let $\| \cdot \|$ be the euclidean norm on ${\bf R}^n$ and $\gamma_n$ the (standard) Gaussian measure on ${\bf R}^n$ with density $(2 \pi )^{-n/2} e^{- \| x\|^2 /2}$. Let $\vartheta$ ($ \simeq 1.3489795$) be defined by $\gamma_1 ([ -…
The \emph{relative projection constant} $\lambda(Y, X)$ of normed spaces $Y \subset X$ is defined as $\lambda(Y, X) = \inf \{ ||P|| : P \in \mathcal{P}(X, Y) \}$, where $\mathcal{P}(X, Y)$ denotes the set of all continuous projections from…
Using uniform global Carleman estimates for discrete elliptic and semi-discrete hyperbolic equations, we study Lipschitz and logarithmic stability for the inverse problem of recovering a potential in a semi-discrete wave equation,…
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 derive local estimates of positive solutions to the conformal $Q$-curvature equation $$ (-\Delta)^m u = K(x) u^{\frac{n+2m}{n-2m}} ~~~~~~ in ~ \Omega \backslash \Lambda $$ near their singular set $\Lambda$, where $\Omega \subset…

We study the problem of reconstructing a convex body using only a finite number of measurements of outer normal vectors. More precisely, we suppose that the normal vectors are measured at independent random locations uniformly distributed…
