Let $\mathbb{B}_p^N$ be the $N$-dimensional unit ball corresponding to the $\ell_p$-norm. For each $N\in\mathbb N$ we sample a uniform random subspace $E_N$ of fixed dimension $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and consider the volume of $\mathbb{B}_p^N$…

We consider $k$-dimensional central sections of the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$ (denoted $B_p^n$) and we prove that their volume are bounded by the volume of $B_p^n$ whenever $1<p<2$ and $1\le k\le (n-1)/2$ or $k=n-1$. We also consider $0<p<1$…

Let $K$ be a smooth convex set with volume one in $\BBR^d$. Choose $n$ random points in $K$ independently according to the uniform distribution. The convex hull of these points, denoted by $K_n$, is called a {\it random polytope}. We prove…

This article investigates, by probabilistic methods, various geometric questions on B_p^n, the unit ball of \ell_p^n. We propose realizations in terms of independent random variables of several distributions on B_p^n, including the…

We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…
