The halfspace depth of a $d$-dimensional point $x$ with respect to a finite (or probability) Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is defined as the infimum of the $\mu$-masses of all closed halfspaces containing $x$. A natural question is…

In this work, we establish a sharp form of a nonlocal quantitative isoperimetric inequality involving the barycentric asymmetry for convex sets. This result can be seen as the nonlocal analogue of the one obtained by Fuglede in 1993.

In this paper, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for the domain of dependence of a finite lightcone in the Minkowski spacetime of dimension greater than or equal to 3. The inequality involves two quantities: the volume of the domain of…

In 2011 Lutwak, Yang and Zhang extended the definition of the $L_p$-Minkowski convex combination ($p \geq 1$) introduced by Firey in the 1960s from convex bodies containing the origin in their interiors to all measurable subsets in…

In this paper, we are interested in Gaussian versions of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We prove in a streamlined way a semigroup version of the Ehrard inequality for $m$ Borel or convex sets based on a previous work by Borell.…

In recent years, it has been shown that some classical inequalities follow from a local stochastic dominance for naturally associated random polytopes. We strengthen planar isoperimetric inequalities by attaching a stochastic model to some…

Building on recent results regarding symmetric probabilistic constructions of countable structures, we provide a method for constructing probability measures, concentrated on certain classes of countably infinite structures, that are…

We show that a strong version of the Brascamp--Lieb inequality for symmetric log-concave measure with $\alpha$-homogeneous potential $V$ is equivalent to a $p$-Brunn--Minkowski inequality for level sets of $V$ with some $p(\alpha,n)<0$. We…

On the class of log-concave functions on $\R^n$, endowed with a suitable algebraic structure, we study the first variation of the total mass functional, which corresponds to the volume of convex bodies when restricted to the subclass of…

We prove an analogue of the portmanteau theorem on weak convergence of probability measures allowing measures which are unbounded on an underlying metric space but finite on the complement of any Borel neighbourhood of a fixed element.

We consider capillarity functionals which measure the perimeter of sets contained in a Euclidean half-space assigning a constant weight $\lambda \in (-1,1)$ to the portion of the boundary that touches the boundary of the half-space.…

Let $(E,\F,\mu)$ be a $\si$-finite measure space. For a non-negative symmetric measure $J(\d x, \d y):=J(x,y) \,\mu(\d x)\,\mu(\d y)$ on $E\times E,$ consider the quadratic form $$\E(f,f):= \frac{1}{2}\int_{E\times E} (f(x)-f(y))^2 \, J(\d…

Log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality was conjectured by Bor\"oczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang \cite{BLYZ}, and it states that a certain strengthening of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality is admissible in the case of symmetric convex sets. It…

We present an alternative approach to some results of Koldobsky on measures of sections of symmetric convex bodies, which allows us to extend them to the not necessarily symmetric setting. We prove that if $K$ is a convex body in ${\mathbb…
