We consider random polytopes in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space that are the convex hulls i.i.d. random points selected according to beta-prime distributions. These distributions are rotationally symmetric, heavy-tailed, and their…

Suppose we choose $N$ points uniformly randomly from a convex body in $d$ dimensions. How large must $N$ be, asymptotically with respect to $d$, so that the convex hull of the points is nearly as large as the convex body itself? It was…

Consider a random set of points on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which can be either uniformly sampled or a Poisson point process. Its convex hull is a random inscribed polytope, whose boundary approximates the sphere. We focus on the…

We provide sharp lower and upper bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of the intersection of a typical random covering set with a fixed analytic set both in Ahlfors regular metric spaces and in the $d$-dimensional torus. In metric spaces, we…

We study the convex hull of the first $n$ steps of a planar random walk, and present large-$n$ asymptotic results on its perimeter length $L_n$, diameter $D_n$, and shape. In the case where the walk has a non-zero mean drift, we show that…

The $K$-hull of a compact set $A\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, where $K\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is a fixed compact convex body, is the intersection of all translates of $K$ that contain $A$. A set is called $K$-strongly convex if it coincides with its…
