Let $\mathbb{P}_{\kappa}(n)$ be the probability that $n$ points $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ picked uniformly and independently in $\mathfrak{C}_\kappa$, a regular $\kappa$-gon with area $1$, are in convex position, that is, form the vertex set of a…

In a $d$-dimensional convex body $K$ random points $X_0, \dots, X_d$ are chosen. Their convex hull is a random simplex. The expected volume of a random simplex is monotone under set inclusion, if $K \subset L$ implies that the expected…

We consider the convex hull of the perturbed point process comprised of $n$ i.i.d. points, each distributed as the sum of a uniform point on the unit sphere $\S^{d-1}$ and a uniform point in the $d$-dimensional ball centered at the origin…

We study the geometry of centrally-symmetric random polytopes, generated by $N$ independent copies of a random vector $X$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We show that under minimal assumptions on $X$, for $N \gtrsim n$ and with high…

For a compact convex set $K$ and a Poisson point process $\eta$, the union of all Voronoi cells with a nucleus in $K$ is the Poisson-Voronoi approximation of $K$. Lower and upper bounds for the variance and a central limit theorem for the…

Let $p_n$ be the characteristic polynomial of an $n \times n$ random matrix drawn from one of the compact classical matrix groups. We show that the critical points of $p_n$ converge to the uniform distribution on the unit circle as $n$…

We examine the behavior of the number of $k$-term arithmetic progressions in a random subset of $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We prove that if a set is chosen by including each element of $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ independently with constant…

We prove a central limit theorem for non-commutative random variables in a von Neumann algebra with a tracial state: Any non-commutative polynomial of averages of i.i.d. samples converges to a classical limit. The proof is based on a…

A strengthened version of the central limit theorem for discrete random variables is established, relying only on information-theoretic tools and elementary arguments. It is shown that the relative entropy between the standardised sum of…

It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be true…
