Let $K, L$ be convex sets in the plane. For normalization purposes, suppose that the area of $K$ is $1$. Suppose that a set $K_n$ of $n$ points are chosen independently and uniformly over $K$, and call a subset of $K$ a {\em hole} if it…

The variance of the number of lattice points inside the dilated bounded set rD with random position in R^d has asymptotics r^(d-1) if the rotational quadratic average of the modulus of the Fourier transform of the set is O(r^(-d-1)). The…

Convex hulls are a fundamental geometric tool used in a number of algorithms. As a side-effect of exhaustive tests for an algorithm for which a convex hull computation was the first step, interesting experimental results were found and are…

We study constrained selection sets of random closed sets defined on a non-atomic probability space. Given a random interval $Y=[y_L,y_U]$ and scalar constraints on the expectation or the median of admissible selections, we characterize the…

Barthe, Schechtman and Schmuckenschl\"ager proved that the cube maximizes the mean width of symmetric convex bodies whose John ellipsoid (maximal volume ellipsoid contained in the body) is the Euclidean unit ball, and the regular…

How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a notion of dispersion and connect it to asymptotic convex…

In this work we deal with the problem of support estimation under shape restrictions. The shape restriction we deal with is an extension of the notion of convexity named alpha-convexity. Instead of assuming, as in the convex case, the…

We obtain new upper bounds on the minimal density of lattice coverings of Euclidean space by dilates of a convex body K. We also obtain bounds on the probability (with respect to the natural Haar-Siegel measure on the space of lattices)…

Let K be a convex set in R d and let K $\lambda$ be the convex hull of a homogeneous Poisson point process P $\lambda$ of intensity $\lambda$ on K. When K is a simple polytope, we establish scaling limits as $\lambda$ $\rightarrow$ $\infty$…

Kernel quadrature can exploit RKHS spectral structure and outperform Monte Carlo on smooth integrands, but optimized quadrature weights are generally signed and may be numerically unstable. We study whether spectral acceleration remains…

$\def\DD{{{\bf \delta}}}\def\CH{{\mathop{\mathrm{ConvexHull}}}}\newcommand{\LL}{{\cal {L}}} \newcommand{\ZZ}{\mathbb{Z}} $ Given a convex body $C$ in the plane, its discrete hull is $C^0 = \CH( C \cap \LL )$, where $\LL = \ZZ \times \ZZ$ is…

Various results are proved giving lower bounds for the $m$th intrinsic volume $V_m(K)$, $m=1,\dots,n-1$, of a compact convex set $K$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, in terms of the $m$th intrinsic volumes of its projections on the coordinate…

The purpose of this paper is to study convex bodies $C$ for which there exists no convex body $C^\prime\subsetneq C$ of the same lattice width. Such bodies shall be called ``lattice reduced'', and they occur naturally in the study of the…

Let B denote a three-dimensional body of rotation, with respect to one coordinate axis, whose boundary is sufficiently smooth and of bounded nonzero Gaussian curvature throughout, except for the two boundary points on the axis of rotation,…

This paper studies the convex hull of $d$-dimensional samples i.i.d. generated from spherically symmetric distributions. Specifically, we derive a complete integration formula for the expected facet number of the convex hull. This formula…

Nonstandard hulls of a vector lattice were introduced and studied in \cite{E10,E9,E7,E5,E3}. In recent paper \cite{EG}, these notions were extended to ordered vector spaces. In the present paper, following the construction of associated…

We establish two-sided bounds for expectations of order statistics ($k$-th maxima) of moduli of coordinates of centered log-concave random vectors with uncorrelated coordinates. Our bounds are exact up to multiplicative universal constants…

Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, we study the computation of the probability distribution function of both the area and perimeter of the convex hull of a random subset $S$ of $P$. The random subset $S$ is formed by drawing each…

We estimate the distribution of relatively $r$-prime lattice points in number fields $K$ with their components having a norm less than $x$. In the previous paper we obtained uniform upper bounds as $K$ runs through all number fields under…

Rank-width is a width parameter of graphs describing whether it is possible to decompose a graph into a tree-like structure by `simple' cuts. This survey aims to summarize known algorithmic and structural results on rank-width of graphs.
