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 show estimates of the "macroscopic dimension" of the $\ell^p$-ball with respect to the $\ell^q$-norm.
We consider the $p$-generalized arithmetic-geometric mean inequality for vectors chosen randomly from the $\ell_p^n$-ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In this setting the inequality can be improved or reversed up to a respective scalar constant with…
In this article, we analyse the domain mapping method approach to approximate statistical moments of solutions to linear elliptic partial differential equations posed over random geometries including smooth surfaces and bulk-surface…
We consider $\ell_p$-direct sums ($1\leq p<\infty$) and $c_0$-direct sums of countably many normed spaces and find the duals of these spaces. We characterize the support functionals of arbitrary elements in these spaces to characterize…
Let $B_p^n$ be the unit ball of $\ell_p^n$, with $1\le p<2$. We study central densities of one-dimensional marginals of the uniform measure on $B_p^n$ and of its Gaussian heat-flow regularizations. The profile is standardized by multiplying…
We define new surface area measures for ball-convex bodies which we call $L_p$ relative surface areas. We show that those are rigid motion invariant valuations. We establish inequalities for these quantities and prove a monotonicity…
The symmetric convex hull of random points that are independent and distributed according to the cone probability measure on the $\ell_p$-unit sphere of $\mathbb R^n$ for some $1\leq p < \infty$ is considered. We prove that these random…
This article investigates sharp comparison of moments for various classes of random variables appearing in a geometric context. In the first part of our work we find the optimal constants in the Khintchine inequality for random vectors…
An asymptotic formula is proved for the expected $T$-functional of the convex hull of independent and identically distributed random points sampled from the Euclidean unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$ according to an arbitrary positive…
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.
Suppose an interval is put on a horizontal line with random roughness. With probability one it is supported at two points, one from the left, and another from the right from its center. We compute probability distribution of support points…
In this survey, we discuss volumetric and combinatorial results concerning (mostly finite) intersections or unions of balls (mostly of equal radii) in the $d$-dimensional real vector space, mostly equipped with the Euclidean norm. Our first…
We describe the set of parameters $(p_1,p_2,q_1,q_2)$ such that the balls $B_{q_1,q_2}^{s,b}$ are rigid in $\ell_{q_1,q_2}^{s,b}$ metric i.e. they are poorly approximated by linear subspaces of dimension $\le (1-\varepsilon)sb$, for large…
Central limit theorems for the log-volume of a class of random convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are obtained in the high-dimensional regime, that is, as $n\to\infty$. In particular, the case of random simplices pinned at the origin and…
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 give several characterizations of holomorphic mean Besov-Lipschitz space on the unit ball in $\cn $ and appropriate Besov-Lipschitz space and prove the equivalences between them. Equivalent norms on the mean Besov-Lipschitz space involve…
We experimentally study the fundamental problem of computing the volume of a convex polytope given as an intersection of linear inequalities. We implement and evaluate practical randomized algorithms for accurately approximating the…
Although for the most part classical, the topic of electrostatics finds to this day new applications. In this review we highlight several theoretical results on electrostatics, chosen to both illustrate general principles, and for their…
