We consider the moments of the volume of the symmetric convex hull of independent random points in an $n$-dimensional symmetric convex body. We calculate explicitly the second and fourth moments for $n$ points when the given body is $B_q^n$…

We give an Euler-Maclaurin formula with remainder for the weighted sum of the values of a smooth function on the integral points in a simple integral polytope. Our work generalizes the formula obtained by Karshon, Sternberg and Weitsman in…
We derive an approximate formula for the mean first-passage time (MFPT) to a small absorbing target of arbitrary shape inside an elongated domain of a slowly varying axisymmetric profile. For this purpose, the original Poisson equation in…
We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…
In the articles [1] and [2] of D. Finch, M. Haltmeier, S. Patch and D. Rakesh inversion formulas were found in any dimension $n\geq2$ for recovering a smooth function with compact support in the unit ball from spherical means centered on…
A natural extension of Heron's 2000 year old formula for the area of a triangle to the volume of a tetrahedron is presented. This gives the fourth power of the volume as a polynomial in six simple rational functions of the areas of its four…
In this paper, we derive an explicit sample size formula based a mixed criterion of absolute and relative errors for estimating means of Poisson random variables.
In this paper we study a notion of volume for Cartier divisors on arbitrary blow-ups of normal complex algebraic varieties of dimension greater than one, with a distinguished point. We apply this to study a volume for normal isolated…
The conformal flow of metrics [2] has been used to successfully establish a special case of the Penrose inequality, which yields a lower bound for the total mass of a spacetime in terms of horizon area. Here we show how to adapt the…
This is a companion to our previous paper. Here, we derive local dimension-free estimates for volumes of sub- and super-level sets of analytic functions of several variables.
We present an efficient algorithm for uniformly sampling from an arbitrary compact body $\mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ from a warm start under isoperimetry and a natural volume growth condition. Our result provides a substantial common…
We write down a one-dimensional integral formula and compute large-n asymptotics for the expectation of the absolute value of the smallest component of a unit vector in n-dimensional Euclidean space. The method is general, and allows to…

An example of the volume and boundary face area of a curved polyhedron for the case of regular spherical and hyperbolic tetrahedron is discussed. An exact formula is explicitly derived as a function of the scalar curvature and the edge…
The expected range of a sample of n+1 normally distributed variables is known to be related to the mean width of a regular n-simplex. We show that the expected maximum mu_n of a sample of n half-normally distributed variables is related to…

The general Poisson summation formula of Mellin analysis can be considered as a quadrature formula for the positive real axis with remainder. For Mellin bandlimited functions it becomes an exact quadrature formula. Our main aim is to study…
