We consider the product of i.i.d. random matrices sampled according to a probability measure $\mu$ supported on a strongly irreducible and proximal subset of a compact set $S\subset GL(d,\mathbb{R})$. We establish the local analyticity of…

We present a new construction of a Skorohod embedding, namely, given a probability measure mu with zero expectation and finite variance, we construct an integrable stopping time T adapted to a filtration F_t, such that W_t has the law mu,…

We study a random matching problem on closed compact $2$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (with respect to the squared Riemannian distance), with samples of random points whose common law is absolutely continuous with respect to the volume…

In this paper we develop tools for studying limit theorems by means of convexity. We establish bounds for the discrepancy in total variation between probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ such that $\nu$ is log-concave with respect to $\mu$.…

We study the problem of approximating the mixed volume $V(P_1^{(\alpha_1)}, \dots, P_k^{(\alpha_k)})$ of an $k$-tuple of convex polytopes $(P_1, \dots, P_k)$, each of which is defined as the convex hull of at most $m_0$ points in…

In this paper, for $\mu$ and $\nu$ two probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with finite moments of order $\rho\ge 1$, we define the respective projections for the $W_\rho$-Wasserstein distance of $\mu$ and $\nu$ on the sets of probability…

We prove the existence of a limit distribution for the normalized normality measure $\mathcal{N}(E_N)/\sqrt{N}$ (as $N \to \infty$) for random binary sequences $E_N$, by this means confirming a conjecture of Alon, Kohayakawa, Mauduit,…

In stochastic geometry there are several instances of threshold phenomena in high dimensions: the behavior of a limit of some expectation changes abruptly when some parameter passes through a critical value. This note continues the…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\rr^n$ ($n \geq 2$) with Lebesgue density proportional to $e^{-V (\Vert x\Vert )}$, where $V : \rr_+ \to \rr$ is a smooth convex potential. We show that the associated spectral gap in $L^2 (\mu)$ lies…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the appropriately scaled and possibly perturbed spectral measure $\mu$ of large random real symmetric matrices with heavy tailed entries. Specifically, consider the N by N symmetric matrix $Y_N^\sigma$…

We study the lower bound for Koldobsky's slicing inequality. We show that there exists a measure $\mu$ and a symmetric convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, such that for all $\xi\in S^{n-1}$ and all $t\in \mathbb{R},$…

Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space. We consider the behavior of probability measures $\mu$ with the property that $$ \int_{X} d(x, y) d\mu(y) \qquad \mbox{is independent of}~x \in X.$$ It appears that such measures, when they exist,…

For a probability measure $\mu$ on $[0,1]$ without discrete component, the best possible order of approximation by a finite point set in terms of the star-discrepancy is $\frac{1}{2N}$ as has been proven relatively recently. However, if…

Muon colliders are expected to naturally have a small spread in beam energy making them an ideal place to study the excitation curve. We present the parameter determinations that are possible from measuring the total cross section near…

We establish analogs of Cheeger's inequality for probability measures with heavy tails. As one of the principal applications, suppose $\lambda > 3$ and define the (Pareto) probability measure $\mu_{\lambda}$ on $[1,\infty)$ by…

We explore the relation between entanglement entropy of quantum many body systems and the distribution of corresponding, properly selected, observables. Such a relation is necessary to actually measure the entanglement entropy. We show that…

A metric probability space $M$ admits thresholds if the random geometric graph on $M$ has a threshold for every monotone graph property. We connect the existence of thresholds to the uniform expansion of $M$ and prove that all standard…

We consider the problem of estimating the mean of a random vector based on $N$ independent, identically distributed observations. We prove the existence of an estimator that has a near-optimal error in all directions in which the variance…

We study the asymptotic distribution of critical values of random holomorphic `polynomials' s_n on a Kaehler manifold M as the degree n tends to infinity. By `polynomial' of degree n we mean a holomorphic section of the nth power of a…

We establish upper bounds for the expected $p$-th power of the Gaussian-smoothed $p$-Wasserstein distance between a probability measure $\mu$ and the corresponding empirical measure $\mu_N$, whenever $\mu$ has finite $q$-th moment for some…
