A convex body $R$ in the hyperbolic plane is reduced if any convex body $K\subset R$ has a smaller minimal width than $R$. We examine the area of a family of hyperbolic reduced $n$-gons, and prove that, within this family, regular $n$-gons…
We study the relationship between local and global density for sphere packings, and in particular the convergence of packing densities in large, compact regions to the Euclidean limit. We axiomatize key properties of sphere packing bounds…
We prove the following result: For each closed $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ in a (finite or infinite-dimensional) Banach space $B$, and each positive real $m\leq n$ there exists a pseudomanifold $W^{n+1}\subset B$ such that $\partial…
We consider the problem of minimizing a given $n$-variate polynomial $f$ over the hypercube $[-1,1]^n$. An idea introduced by Lasserre, is to find a probability distribution on $[-1,1]^n$ with polynomial density function $h$ (of given…
A celebrated result of Alon and F\"{u}redi gives a tight lower bound on the number of hyperplanes required to cover all points of the Boolean cube $B^n$ except the origin $\bm{0}$. Recent breakthroughs by Sauermann and Wigderson generalized…
We introduce and discuss the concept of Gaussian probability density function (pdf) for the n-dimensional hyperbolic space which has been proposed as an environment for coding and decoding signals. An upper bound for the error probability…
We derive upper bounds to free-space concentration of electromagnetic waves, mapping out the limits to maximum intensity for any spot size and optical beam-shaping device. For sub-diffraction-limited optical beams, our bounds suggest the…
This paper generalizes D. Burago and S. Ivanov's work on filling volume minimality and boundary rigidity of almost real hyperbolic metrics. We show that regions with metrics close to a negatively curved symmetric metric are strict minimal…
We introduce and study certain notions which might serve as substitutes for maximum density packings and minimum density coverings. A body is a compact connected set which is the closure of its interior. A packing $\cal P$ with congruent…
We give near-tight lower bounds for the sparsity required in several dimensionality reducing linear maps. First, consider the JL lemma which states that for any set of n vectors in R there is a matrix A in R^{m x d} with m = O(eps^{-2}log…
In this paper, we find lower bounds for volumes of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with various topological conditions. Let V_3 = 1.01494 denote the volume of a regular ideal simplex in hyperbolic 3-space. As a special case of the main theorem, if a…
In this work, we study self-gravitating objects that obey a polytropic equation of state in hyperbolic symmetry. Specifically, we describe in detail the steps to derive the Lane-Emden equation from the structure equations of the system. To…
We discuss the global regularity of solutions $f$ to the Dirichlet problem for minimal graphs in the hyperbolic space when the boundary of the domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ has a nonnegative mean curvature and prove an optimal…
G. Fejes T\'oth posed the following problem: Determine the infimum of the densities of the lattices of closed balls in $\bR^n$ such that each affine $k$-subspace $(0 \le k \le n-1)$ of $\bR^n$ intersects some ball of the lattice. We give a…
A binary code with covering radius $R$ is a subset $C$ of the hypercube $Q_n=\{0,1\}^n$ such that every $x\in Q_n$ is within Hamming distance $R$ of some codeword $c\in C$, where $R$ is as small as possible. For a fixed coordinate…
We prove a new lower bound for the almost 20 year old problem of determining the smallest possible size of an essential cover of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $\{\pm 1\}^n$, i.e. the smallest possible size of a collection of hyperplanes…
Consider a compact K\"{a}hler manifold $M^m$ with Ricci curvature lower bound $Ric_M\geq -2(m+1) .$ Assume that its universal cover $% \widetilde{M}$ has maximal bottom of spectrum $\lambda_1(\widetilde{M}%) =m^2.$ Then we prove that…
We develop a new method suitable for establishing lower bounds on the ball measure of noncompactness of operators acting between considerably general quasinormed function spaces. This new method removes some of the restrictions…
We prove that the density of a topologically nontrivial, area-minimizing hypercone with an isolated singularity must be greater than the square root of 2. The Simons' cones show that this is the best possible constant. If one of the…
