The aim of this paper is to study certain properties of the Kullback-Leibler distance between two positive integer numbers or between two ideals. We present some results related the entropy of a positive integer number and the divergence of…
The recent breakthrough of Guth, Iosevich, Ou, and Wang (2019) on the Falconer distance problem states that for a compact set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^2$, if the Hausdorff dimension of $A$ is greater than $\frac{5}{4}$, then the distance set…
A range counting problem is specified by a set $P$ of size $|P| = n$ of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, an integer weight $x_p$ associated to each point $p \in P$, and a range space ${\cal R} \subseteq 2^{P}$. Given a query range $R \in {\cal…

We prove that if $P$ is a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{C}^2$, then either the points in $P$ determine $\Omega(n^{1-\epsilon})$ complex distances, or $P$ is contained in a line with slope $\pm i$. If the latter occurs then each pair of…
We show that for almost any vector $v$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the dimension of the set of vectors $w$ satisfying $\liminf_{k\to\infty} k^{1/n}<kv-w> \ge \epsilon$ (where $<\cdot>$ denotes…
Despite many applications, dimensionality reduction in the $\ell_1$-norm is much less understood than in the Euclidean norm. We give two new oblivious dimensionality reduction techniques for the $\ell_1$-norm which improve exponentially…
We consider the minimal distance between orbits of measure preserving dynamical systems. In the spirit of dynamical shrinking target problems we identify distance rates for which almost sure asymptotic closeness properties can be ensured.…
We study the non-uniformity of probability measures on the interval and the circle. On the interval, we identify the Wasserstein-$p$ distance with the classical $L^p$-discrepancy. We thereby derive sharp estimates in Wasserstein distances…
We give a complete description of the horofunction boundary of finite-dimensional $\ell_p$ spaces for $1\leq p\leq \infty$. We also study the variation norm on $\mathbb{R}^{\mathcal{N}}$, $\mathcal{N}=\{1,...,N\}$, and the corresponding…
The present paper establishes the first result on the absolute continuity of elliptic measure with respect to the Lebesgue measure for a divergence form elliptic operator with non-smooth coefficients that have a BMO anti-symmetric part. In…
We obtain optimal generalized versions of Hardy inequalities, which as special cases contain Hardy's inequality and Hardy's inequality involving the distance function to the boundary of $ \Omega$. In addition we obtain neccesary and…
Consider a compact $M \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and $l > 0$. A maximal distance minimizer problem is to find a connected compact set $\Sigma$ of the length (one-dimensional Hausdorff measure $\mathcal H$) at most $l$ that minimizes \[ \max_{y…
We give a simple argument to obtain $\mathrm{L}^p$-boundedness for heat semigroups associated to uniformly strongly elliptic systems on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by using Stein interpolation between Gaussian estimates and hypercontractivity. Our…
We analyze convergence rates of norm-minimization-based outer approximation algorithms for convex vector optimization when the scalarization uses an $\ell_p$ norm with $p \in (1,\infty)$. While the Euclidean case ($p=2$) achieves the…
We analyze the problem of discrete distribution estimation under $\ell_1$ loss. We provide non-asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the maximum risk of the empirical distribution (the maximum likelihood estimator), and the minimax risk in…
We show that the maximum number of unit distances or of diameters in a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space is attained only by specific types of Lenz constructions, for all d >= 4 and n sufficiently large, depending on d. As a…
The study of high-dimensional distributions is of interest in probability theory, statistics and asymptotic convex geometry, where the object of interest is the uniform distribution on a convex set in high dimensions. The $\ell^p$ spaces…
We seek for lines of minimal distance to finitely many points in the plane. The distance between a line and a set of points is defined by the L^p-norm, 1\leq p\leq \infty, of the vector of vertical or orthogonal distances from the single…
