The paper considers the stationary Poisson Boolean model with spherical grains and proposes a family of nonparametric estimators for the radius distribution. These estimators are based on observed distances and radii, weighted in an…

We describe the range of a restricted spherical mean transform, which sends a function supported inside a closed ball in a hyperbolic space to its mean values on the geodesics spheres centered at the boundary of the ball. The description…

We discuss Linnik's work on the distribution of integral solutions to $x^2+y^2+z^2 =d$, as $d$ goes to infinity. We give an exposition of Linnik's ergodic method; indeed, by using large-deviation results for random walks on expander graphs,…

Consider an arrangement of $n$ congruent zones on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere $S^{d-1}$, where a zone is the intersection of an origin symmetric Euclidean plank with $S^{d-1}$. We prove that, for sufficiently large $n$, it is possible…

We address the problem of producing a lower bound for the mean of a discrete probability distribution, with known support over a finite set of real numbers, from an iid sample of that distribution. Up to a constant, this is equivalent to…

We prove a point-wise and average bound for the number of incidences between points and hyper-planes in vector spaces over finite fields. While our estimates are, in general, sharp, we observe an improvement for product sets and sets…

The distribution function of particles over clusters is proposed for a system of identical intersecting spheres, the centres of which are uniformly distributed in space. Consideration is based on the concept of the rank number of clusters,…

Facets of the convex hull of $n$ independent random vectors chosen uniformly at random from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are studied. A particular focus is given on the height of the facets as well as the expected number of facets as…

Let $K$ be a centrally symmetric spherical and simplicial polytope, whose vertices form a $\frac{1}{4n}-$net in the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove a uniform lower bound on the norms of all hyperplane projections $P: X \to X$, where…

For any positive integer $k>1$, we classify the antipodal point arrangements on the sphere $S^k$ up to an isomorphism, by associating a finite complete set of cycle invariants.

We prove {\em sign equidistribution} of Legendre polynomials: the ratio between the lengths of the regions in the interval $[-1, 1]$ where the Legendre polynomial assumes positive versus negative values, converges to one as the degree…

By a profound result of Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski, and Wo{\'z}niakowski the inverse of the star-discrepancy $n^*(s,\ve)$ satisfies the upper bound $n^*(s,\ve) \leq c_{\mathrm{abs}} s \ve^{-2}$. This is equivalent to the fact that for any…

Let $ D$ be a bounded open subset of $\mathbb R^n$ with $|\partial D| < \infty$ and let $x_0 $ be a point of $D$. We introduce a new parameter, that we call Kuran gap of $\partial D$ w.r.t. $x_0$. Roughly speaking, this parameter, denoted…

We study the equidistribution of integers of the form $n= x_1^2 + \cdots + x_d^2$ under the arithmetic constraints given by $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^d$. The first step in addressing this problem is to construct modular forms whose Fourier…

In this paper, we give a general formula to determine the quantization coefficients for uniform distributions defined on the boundaries of different regular $m$-sided polygons inscribed in a circle. The result shows that the quantization…
