We study the asymptotic behavior of the diameter or maximum interpoint distance of a cloud of i.i.d. $d$-dimensional random vectors when the number of points in the cloud tends to infinity. This is a non standard extreme value problem since…
For a broad class of Gaussian disordered systems at low temperature, we show that the Gibbs measure is asymptotically localized in small neighborhoods of a small number of states. From a single argument, we obtain (i) a version of…
