Facets of the convex hull of $n$ independent random vectors chosen uniformly at random from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are studied. A particular focus is given on the height of the facets as well as the expected number of facets as…

We study the volume distribution of nodal domains of random band-limited functions on generic manifolds, and find that in the high energy limit a typical instance obeys a deterministic universal law, independent of the manifold. Some of the…
This paper studies the local structure of continuous random fields on $\mathbb R^d$ taking values in a complete separable linear metric space ${\mathbb V}$. Extending seminal work of Falconer, we show that the generalized $(1+k)$-th order…

This is a manuscript containing the full proofs of results announced in [KW], together with some recent updates. We prove that the Nazarov-Sodin constant, which up to a natural scaling gives the leading order growth for the expected number…
The scalar, vector and tensor spherical harmonics on three-dimensional de Sitter spacetime are defined and analyzed. Each harmonic defines two sets of asymptotic data on the two sphere in the asymptotic expansion close to both the past and…

Random fields on the sphere play a fundamental role in the natural sciences. This paper presents a simulation algorithm parenthetical to the spectral turning bands method used in Euclidean spaces, for simulating scalar- or vector-valued…
We consider vectors of random variables, obtained by restricting the length of the nodal set of Berry's random wave model to a finite collection of (possibly overlapping) smooth compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our main result shows that,…
We show that the variance of the number of connected components of the zero set of the two-dimensional Gaussian ensemble of random spherical harmonics of degree n grows as a positive power of n. The proof uses no special properties of…
We consider the general nonvanishing, divergence-free vector fields defined on a domain in three space and tangent to its boundary. Based on the theory of finite type invariants, we define a family of invariants for such fields, in the…
In a recent paper, we analyzed the properties of a new kind of spherical wavelets (called needlets) for statistical inference procedures on spherical random fields; the investigation was mainly motivated by applications to cosmological…
We study random spherical harmonics at shrinking scales. We compare the mass assigned to a small spherical cap with its area, and find the smallest possible scale at which, with high probability, the discrepancy between them is small…
This paper presents a formulation of the notion of monotonicity on homogeneous spaces. We review the general theory of invariant cone fields on homogeneous spaces and provide a list of examples involving spaces that arise in applications in…
The investigation of the behaviour for geometric functionals of random fields on manifolds has drawn recently considerable attention. In this paper, we extend this framework by considering fluctuations over time for the level curves of…

Observables in random tensor theory are polynomials in the entries of a tensor of rank $d$ which are invariant under $U(N)^d$. It is notoriously difficult to evaluate the expectations of such polynomials, even in the Gaussian distribution.…
