One of the oldest and richest problems from continuous location science is the famous Fermat-Torricelli problem, asking for the unique point in Euclidean space that has minimal distance sum to n given (non-collinear) points. Many natural…
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…
Some concepts, such as non-compactness measure and condensing operators, defined on metric spaces are extended to uniform spaces. Such extensions allow us to locate, in the context of uniform spaces, some classical results existing in…
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…
Busemann's intersection inequality gives an upper bound for the volume of the intersection body of a star body in terms of the volume of the body itself. Koldobsky, Paouris, and Zymonopoulou asked if there is a similar result for…
The discrete moment problem is a foundational problem in distribution-free robust optimization, where the goal is to find a worst-case distribution that satisfies a given set of moments. This paper studies the discrete moment problems with…
We provide a simple, general argument to obtain improvements of concentration-type inequalities starting from improvements of their corresponding isoperimetric-type inequalities. We apply this argument to obtain robust improvements of the…
We consider a generalisation of the classical Lehmer problem about the parity distribution of an integer and its modular inverse. We use some known estimates of exponential sums to study a more general question of simultaneous distribution…
One of the basic problems in discrete geometry is to determine the most efficient packing of congruent replicas of a given convex set $K$ in the plane or in space. The most commonly used measure of efficiency is density. Several types of…
In convex geometry, the Blaschke surface area measure on the boundary of a convex domain can be interpreted in terms of the complexity of approximating polyhedra. In response to a question raised by D. Barrett, this approach is formulated…
We show that the cone-volume measure of a convex body with centroid at the origin satisfies the subspace concentration condition. This implies, among others, a conjectured best possible inequality for the $\mathrm{U}$-functional of a convex…
A nonparametric variant of the Kiefer--Weiss problem is proposed and investigated. In analogy to the classical Kiefer--Weiss problem, the objective is to minimize the maximum expected sample size of a sequential test. However, instead of…
Motivated by the central limit problem for convex bodies, we study normal approximation of linear functionals of high-dimensional random vectors with various types of symmetries. In particular, we obtain results for distributions which are…
We consider a general class of non-gradient hypoelliptic Langevin diffusions and study two related questions. The first one is large deviations for hypoelliptic multiscale diffusions. The second one is small mass asymptotics of the…
Mean density of lower dimensional random closed sets, as well as the mean boundary density of full dimensional random sets, and their estimation are of great interest in many real applications. Only partial results are available so far in…
Phenomena with a constrained sample space appear frequently in practice. This is the case e.g. with strictly positive data and with compositional data, like percentages and the like. If the natural measure of difference is not the absolute…
In this paper we consider weakly hyperbolic equations of higher orders in arbitrary dimensions with time-dependent coefficients and lower order terms. We prove the Gevrey well-posedness of the Cauchy problem under $C^k$-regularity of…
We consider partially hyperbolic attractors for non-singular endomorphisms admitting an invariant stable bundle and a positively invariant cone field with non-uniform cone expansion at a positive Lebesgue measure set of points. We prove…
We prove that if a convex body has absolutely continuous surface area measure, whose density is sufficiently close to the constant, then the sequence $\{\Pi^mK\}$ of convex bodies converges to the ball with respect to the Banach-Mazur…
We provide a sharp lower bound for the perimeter of the inner parallel sets of a convex body $\Omega$. The bound depends only on the perimeter and inradius $r$ of the original body and states that \[|\partial\Omega_t| \geq…
