This article investigates, by probabilistic methods, various geometric questions on B_p^n, the unit ball of \ell_p^n. We propose realizations in terms of independent random variables of several distributions on B_p^n, including the…

We establish Central Limit Theorems for the volumes of intersections of $B_{p}^n$ (the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$) with uniform random subspaces of codimension $d$ for fixed $d$ and $n\to \infty$. As a corollary we obtain higher order…

Let Omega(n) be the volume of the unit ball in R^n. We formulate as an infinite product the gamma function ratio gamma(x+1/2)/gamma(x),x>0, which allows us to reproduce and /or produce a variety of formulas and inequalities, some of them…

We study the volume of unit balls $B^n_{p,q}$ of finite-dimensional Lorentz sequence spaces $\ell_{p,q}^n.$ We give an iterative formula for ${\rm vol}(B^n_{p,q})$ for the weak Lebesgue spaces with $q=\infty$ and explicit formulas for $q=1$…

The normalised volume measure on the $\ell_p^n$ unit ball ($1\leq p\leq 2$) satisfies the following isoperimetric inequality: the boundary measure of a set of measure $a$ is at least $cn^{1/p}\tilde{a}\log^{1-1/p}(1/\tilde{a})$, where…

We prove a large deviations principle for orthogonal projections of the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_p^n$ of $\ell_p^n$ onto a random $k$-dimensional linear subspace of $\mathbb{R}^n$ as $n\to\infty$ in the case $2<p\le \infty$ and for the…

Let $\mathbb{B}_p^N$ be the $N$-dimensional unit ball corresponding to the $\ell_p$-norm. For each $N\in\mathbb N$ we sample a uniform random subspace $E_N$ of fixed dimension $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and consider the volume of $\mathbb{B}_p^N$…

If $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is a convex body and $\Gamma_pK$ is the $p$-centroid body of $K$, the $L_p$ Busemann-Petty centroid inequality states that $\vol(\Gamma_pK) \geq \vol(K)$, with equality if and only if $K$ is an ellipsoid centered…

We prove the validity of the $p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the intrinsic volume $V_k$, $k=2,\dots, n-1$, of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in a neighborhood of the unit ball, for $0\le p<1$. We also prove that this inequality does…

We re-confirm, for the case of the unit p-ball of R^n, one of recent conjectures of G.Kuperberg on centrally symmetric convex bodies.This conjecture was very recently confirmrd for this particular case by D.A.Gutierrez using polygamma…

The volume of the unit ball of the Lebesgue sequence space $\ell_p^m$ is very well known since the times of Dirichlet. We calculate the volume of the unit ball in the mixed norm $\ell^n_q(\ell_p^m)$, whose special cases are nowadays popular…

In present paper, we prove the monotonicity of two functions involving the gamma function $\Gamma(x)$ and relating to the $n$-dimensional volume of the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$.

For $2 < p < p_0 \simeq 26.265$, the hyperplane section of the $l_p^n$-unit ball $B_p^n$ perpendicular to a^(n) = 1/sqrt(n) (1, ... ,1) for large $n$ has larger volume than the one orthogonal to a^(2) = 1/sqrt(2) (1,1,0, ...,0), as shown by…

For $p>1$, we derive explicit formulas for the intrinsic volumes $V_0(\mathbb B_p^n),\dots,V_{n-1}(\mathbb B_p^n)$ of the $n$-dimensional $\ell_p$-balls $$ \mathbb B_p^n = \{x\in\mathbb R^n:\ |x_1|^p+\ldots+|x_n|^p\le 1\} $$ and, more…

We show that the slicing problem holds true for subspaces of $L_p,p>2$ in the setting of arbitrary measures in place of volume. This generalizes a result of Milman for the original slicing problem.

We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…

Associated to a holomorphic quadratic differential is a unit ball of the measured lamination space. The Thurston volume of the unit ball defines a function on the moduli space. We show that the volume function is not proper and characterize…

For every large enough $n$, we explicitly construct a body of constant width $2$ that has volume less than $0.9^n \text{Vol}(\mathbb{B}^{n}$), where $\mathbb{B}^{n}$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. This answers a question of…

This paper studies the relationship between volume and surface uniform measures on n-dimensional p-balls under the p-norm. It is proved that for p=1, p=2 and p=infinity, and only for these values of p, radial projection maps a…

For $\alpha>-1$ and $0<p<\infty$, we study weighted Bergman spaces $\mathcal B^p_\alpha$ of harmonic functions on the real hyperbolic ball and obtain an atomic decomposition of these spaces in terms of reproducing kernels. We show that an…
