We prove that the category of finitely generated graded modules over the quiver Hecke algebra of arbitrary type admits numerous stratifications in the sense of Kleshchev. A direct consequence is that the full subcategory corresponding to…

Let K be a d-dimensional convex body, and let $K^{(n)}$ be the intersection of n halfspaces containing $K$ whose bounding hyperplanes are independent and identically distributed. Under suitable distributional assumptions, we prove an…

Given a non-negative integer k, we construct a lattice 3-simplex P with the following property: The affine semigroup Q_P associated to P is not normal, and every element $q \in \sat{Q}_P \setminus Q_P$ has lattice distance at least k above…

Consider the random polytope, that is given by the convex hull of a Poisson point process on a smooth convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove central limit theorems for continuous motion invariant valuations including the Will's functional…

The isotropic constant $L_K$ is an affine-invariant measure of the spread of a convex body $K$. For a $d$-dimensional convex body $K$, $L_K$ can be defined by $L_K^{2d} = \det(A(K))/(\mathrm{vol}(K))^2$, where $A(K)$ is the covariance…

Let N > n, and denote by K the convex hull of N independent standard gaussian random vectors in an n-dimensional Euclidean space. We prove that with high probability, the isotropic constant of K is bounded by a universal constant. Thus we…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$. We introduce a new affine invariant, which we call $\Omega_K$, that can be found in three different ways: as a limit of normalized $L_p$-affine surface areas, as the relative entropy of the cone…

For a permutationally invariant unconditional convex body K in R^n we define a finite sequence (K_j), j = 1, ..., n of projections of the body K to the space spanned by first j vectors of the standard basis of R^n. We prove that the…

Let \phi be a real-valued valuation on the family of compact convex subsets of \mathbb{R}^n and let K be a convex body in \mathbb{R}^n. We introduce the \phi -covariogram g_{K,\phi} of K as the function associating to each x \in…

We will prove that an origin-symmetric star-convex body $K$ with sufficiently smooth boundary and such that every hyperplane section of $K$ passing through the origin is a body of affine revolution, is itself a body of affine revolution.…

Generalizing the slicing inequality for functions on convex bodies from [11], it was proved in [4] that there exists an absolute constant $c$ so that for any $n\in \mathbb N$, any $q\in [0,n-1)$ which is not an odd integer, any…

Barker and Larman asked the following. Let $K' \subset {\Bbb{R}}^d$ be a convex body, whose interior contains a given convex body $K \subset {\Bbb{R}}^d$, and let, for all supporting hyperplanes $H$ of $K$, the $(d-1)$-volumes of the…

Let us denote by $\mathcal K_n$ the hyperspace of all convex bodies of $\mathbb R^n$ equipped with the Hausdorff distance topology. An affine invariant point $p$ is a continuous and Aff(n)-equivariant map $p:\mathcal K_n\to \mathbb R^n$,…

Assume $K$ is a convex body in $R^d$, and $X$ is a (large) finite subset of $K$. How many convex polytopes are there whose vertices come from $X$? What is the typical shape of such a polytope? How well the largest such polytope (which is…

We consider the convex hull of a finite sample of i.i.d. points uniformly distributed in a convex body in $\R^d$, $d\geq 2$. We prove an exponential deviation inequality, which leads to rate optimal upper bounds on all the moments of the…

We derive lower estimates for the approximation of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean ball by polytopes with a fixed number of $k$-dimensional faces, $k\in\{0,1,\ldots,d-1\}$. The metrics considered include the intrinsic volume difference and…
