Random simplices and more general random convex bodies of dimension $p$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $p\leq n$ are considered, which are generated by random vectors having an elliptical distribution. In the high-dimensional regime, that is, if…

We determine the probability that a random polynomial of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ has exactly $r$ roots in $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and show that it is given by a rational function of $p$ that is invariant under replacing $p$ by $1/p$.

We consider random rectangles in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that are distributed according to a Poisson random measure, i.e., independently and uniformly scattered in the plane. The distributions of the length and the width of the rectangles are…

The ball-constrained weighted maximin dispersion problem $(\rm P_{ball})$ is to find a point in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean ball such that the minimum of the weighted Euclidean distance from given $m$ points is maximized. We propose a new…

For every fixed finite field $\F_q$, $p \in (0,1-1/q)$ and $\epsilon > 0$, we prove that with high probability a random subspace $C$ of $\F_q^n$ of dimension $(1-H_q(p)-\epsilon)n$ has the property that every Hamming ball of radius $pn$ has…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In…

We introduce the concept of average best $m$-term approximation widths with respect to a probability measure on the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$. We estimate these quantities for the embedding $id:\ell_p^n\to\ell_q^n$ with $0<p\le q\le \infty$…

We relate the $p$-adic heights of generalized Heegner cycles to the derivative of a $p$-adic $L$-function attached to a pair $(f, \chi)$, where $f$ is an ordinary weight $2r$ newform and $\chi$ is an unramified imaginary quadratic Hecke…

We consider the triangular ratio metric and estimate the radius of convexity for balls in some special domains and prove the inclusion relations of metric balls defined by the triangular ratio metric, the quasihyperbolic metric and the…

The paper provides a description of the large deviation behavior for the Euclidean norm of projections of $\ell_p^n$-balls to high-dimensional random subspaces. More precisely, for each integer $n\geq 1$, let $k_n\in\{1,\ldots,n-1\}$,…

In this paper, we will show that the $p$-adic valuation (where $p$ is a given prime number) of some type of rational numbers is unusually large. This generalizes the very recent results by the author and by A. Dubickas, which are both…

We derive an upper bound on the size of a ball such that the image of the ball under quadratic map is strongly convex and smooth. Our result is the best possible improvement of the analogous result by Polyak in the case of quadratic map. We…

We verify that $\liminf_{q\to\infty} q\cdot |q|_p\cdot ||qx||<\epsilon$ for all real $x$, small primes $p$ and relatively small $\epsilon$. This result supports the famous $p$-adic Littlewood conjecture which states that the above lower…
