Gaussian processes can be treated as subsets of a standard Hilbert space, however, the volume size relation between the underlying index space of random processes and its convex hull is not clear. The understanding of such volume size…
We present three methods to construct majorizing measures in various settings. These methods are based on direct constructions of increasing sequences of partitions through a simple exhaustion procedure rather than on the construction of…
Magnitude of a finite metric space and the related notion of magnitude functions on metric spaces is an active area of research in algebraic topology. Magnitude originally arose in the context of biology, where it represents the number of…
Magnitude is a numerical invariant of compact metric spaces, originally inspired by category theory and now known to be related to myriad other geometric quantities. Generalizing earlier results in $\ell_1^n$ and Euclidean space, we prove…
The Brunn-Minkowski theory in convex geometry concerns, among other things, the volumes, mixed volumes, and surface area measures of convex bodies. We study generalizations of these concepts to Borel measures with density in…
The Hardy-Littlewood-P?olya majorization theorem is extended to the framework of some spaces with a curved geometry (such as the global NPC spaces and the Wasserstein spaces). We also discuss the connection between our concept of…
The general dual volume $\dveV(K)$ and the general dual Orlicz curvature measure $\deV(K, \cdot)$ were recently introduced for functions $G: (0, \infty)\times \sphere\rightarrow (0, \infty)$ and convex bodies $K$ in $\R^n$ containing the…
The Minkowski problem in convex geometry concerns showing that a given Borel measure on the unit sphere is, up to perhaps a constant, some type of surface area measure of a convex body. Two types of Minkowski problems in particular are an…
For a given metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ we consider finite samples of points, calculate the matrix of distances between them and then reconstruct the points in some finite-dimensional space using the multidimensional scaling (MDS)…
Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…
The aim of this paper is to study properties of sections of convex bodies with respect to different types of measures. We present a formula connecting the Minkowski functional of a convex symmetric body K with the measure of its sections.…
In geometric measure theory, there is interest in studying the interaction of measures with rectifiable sets. Here, we extend a theorem of Badger and Schul in Euclidean space to characterize rectifiable pointwise doubling measures in…
Recent results of Trudinger on Isoperimetric Inequalities for non-convex bodies are applied to the gravitational collapse of a lightlike shell of matter to form a black hole. Using some integral identities for co-dimension two surfaces in…
Halfspace (or Tukey) depth is a fundamental and robust measure of centrality of data points in multivariate datasets. Computing the depth of a point with respect to the uniform distribution on an open convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a…
With any convex function F on a finite-dimensional linear space X such that F goes to infinity at infinity, we associate a Borel measure on the dual space X*. This measure is obtained by pushing forward the measure exp(-F(x))dx under the…
We discuss the notions of circumradius, inradius, diameter, and minimum width in generalized Minkowski spaces (that is, with respect to gauges), i.e., we measure the "size" of a given convex set in a finite-dimensional real vector space…
In this paper we study the following geometric problem: given $2^n-1$ real numbers $x_A$ indexed by the non-empty subsets $A\subset \{1,..,n\}$, is it possible to construct a body $T\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $x_A=|T_A|$ where $|T_A|$…
When the gauge group of a theory has infinite volume, defining the inner product on physical states becomes subtle. This is the case for gravity, even in exactly solvable models such as minisuperspace or low-dimensional theories: the…
Let $(\mathcal{X},\rho)$ be a metric space and $\lambda$ be a Borel measure on this space defined on the $\sigma$-algebra generated by open subsets of $\mathcal{X}$; this measure $\lambda$ defines volumes of Borel subsets of $\mathcal{X}$.…
We study the connection between the concavity properties of a measure $\nu$ and the convexity properties of the associated relative entropy $D(\cdot \Vert \nu)$ along optimal transport. As a corollary we prove a new dimensional…
