We uncover geometric aspects that underlie the sum of two independent stochastic variables when both are governed by q-Gaussian probability distributions. The pertinent discussion is given in terms of random vectors uniformly distributed on…
We establish central limit theorems for natural volumes of random inscribed polytopes in projective Riemannian or Finsler geometries. In addition, normal approximation of dual volumes and the mean width of random polyhedral sets are…
We asymptotically estimate the variance of the number of lattice points in a thin, randomly rotated annulus lying on the surface of the sphere. This partially resolves a conjecture of Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak. We also obtain estimates…
Let $\{B(\xi_n,r_n)\}_{n\ge1}$ be a sequence of random balls whose centers $\{\xi_n\}_{n\ge1}$ is a stationary process, and $\{r_n\}_{n\ge1}$ is a sequence of positive numbers decreasing to 0. Our object is the random covering set…
For fixed functions $G,H:[0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$, consider the rotationally invariant probability density on $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form \[ \mu^n(ds) = \frac{1}{Z_n} G(\|s\|_2)\, e^{ - n H( \|s\|_2)} ds. \] We show that when $n$ is large,…
In this paper, we study the distribution of the minimal distance (in the Hamming metric) of a random linear code of dimension $k$ in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. We provide quantitative estimates showing that the distribution function of the minimal…
In this paper we consider the minimizing sequence for some energy functional of an elliptic equation associated with the mean field limit of the point vortex distribution one-sided Borel probability measure. If such a sequence blows up, we…
The study of Schatten classes has a long tradition in geometric functional analysis and related fields. In this paper we study a variety of geometric and probabilistic aspects of finite-dimensional Schatten classes of not necessarily square…
Recent advances in statistics introduced versions of the central limit theorem for high-dimensional vectors, allowing for the construction of confidence regions for high-dimensional parameters. In this note, $s$-sparsely convex…
We study the relative entropy of the empirical probability vector with respect to the true probability vector in multinomial sampling of $k$ categories, which, when multiplied by sample size $n$, is also the log-likelihood ratio statistic.…
We study two notions of concentration for homogeneous polynomials of degree $N$ in $d+1$ complex variables on the unit sphere: a local notion measuring the fraction of the $L^2$-norm supported on a measurable subset; and a global notion…
In this paper we characterize surjective isometries on certain classes of non-commutative spaces associated with semi-finite von Neumann algebras: the Lorentz spaces $L^{w,1}$, as well as the spaces $L^1+L^\infty$ and $L^1\cap L^\infty$.…
In this paper, we prove a Poincar\'e-type inequality for any set of finite perimeter which is stable with respect to the free energy among volume-preserving perturbation, provided that the Hausdorff dimension of its singular set is at most…
In his 1996 paper, Talagrand highlighted that the Law of Large Numbers (LLN) for independent random variables can be viewed as a geometric property of multidimensional product spaces. This phenomenon is known as the concentration of…
How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a notion of dispersion and connect it to asymptotic convex…
We study how measures with finite lower density are distributed around $(n-m)$-planes in small balls in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also discuss relations between conical upper density theorems and porosity. Our results may be applied to a large…
Spatial random permutations were originally studied due to their connections to Bose-Einstein condensation, but they possess many interesting properties of their own. For random permutations of a regular lattice with periodic boundary…
The Euclidean concentration inequality states that, among sets with fixed volume, balls have $r$-neighborhoods of minimal volume for every $r>0$. On an arbitrary set, the deviation of this volume growth from that of a ball is shown to…
Given a prime $p$, let $P(t)$ be a non-constant monic polynomial in $t$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ of $p$-adic integers. Let $X_{n}$ be an $n \times n$ random matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ with independent entries that lie in any residue…
We consider the volume of a Boolean expression of some congruent balls about a given system of centers in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. When the radius $r$ of the balls is large, this volume can be approximated by a polynomial of…
