Consider two sequences of $n$ independent and identically distributed fair coin tosses, $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ and $Y=(Y_1,\ldots,Y_n)$, which are $\rho$-correlated for each $j$, i.e. $\mathbb{P}[X_j=Y_j] = {1+\rho\over 2}$. We study the…

We consider the simplices $$ K_n^A=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^{n+1}:x_1\ge x_2\ge \ldots\ge x_{n+1},x_1-x_{n+1}\le 1,x_1+\ldots+x_{n+1}=0\} $$ and $$ K_n^B=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:1\ge x_1\ge x_2\ge \ldots\ge x_n\ge 0\}, $$ which are called the Schl\"afli…

We analyze sumsets A+B = {a+b : a in A, b in B} where A,B are sets of integers, A is infinite, and B has positive upper Banach density. For each k, we show that A+B contains at least the expected density of k-term arithmetic progressions…

We define a random zonotope in Euclidean space, by adding finitely many random segments, which are independently and identically distributed. For this random polytope, we determine, under a mild assumption on the distribution, the…

We consider the moments of the volume of the symmetric convex hull of independent random points in an $n$-dimensional symmetric convex body. We calculate explicitly the second and fourth moments for $n$ points when the given body is $B_q^n$…

In 1965, Bollob\'as proved that for a Bollob\'as set-pair system $\{(A_i,B_i)\mid i\in[m]\}$, the maximum value of $\sum_{i=1}^m\binom{|A_i|+|B_i|}{A_i}^{-1}$ is $1$. Heged\"{u}s and Frankl recently extended the concept of Bollob\'as…

Finding a largest Euclidean ball in a given convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and finding a largest volume ellipsoid in $K$ are two problems of fundamentally different nature. The first is a purely Euclidean problem, where we consider…

We propose a new approach for the study of the quadratic stochastic Euclidean bipartite matching problem between two sets of $N$ points each, $N\gg 1$. The points are supposed independently randomly generated on a domain…

We study a class of convex bodies called operatopes that are obtained by taking Minkowski sums of affine images of an operator norm ball. This notion generalizes that of zonotopes which are Minkowksi sums of line segments. Taking the limit…

We study the problem of representing a discrete tensor that comes from finite uniform samplings of a multi-dimensional and multiband analog signal. Particularly, we consider two typical cases in which the shape of the subbands is cubic or…

Intrinsic volumes, which generalize both Euler characteristic and Lebesgue volume, are important properties of $d$-dimensional sets. A random cubical complex is a union of unit cubes, each with vertices on a regular cubic lattice,…

We describe a maximum entropy approach for computing volumes and counting integer points in polyhedra. To estimate the number of points from a particular set X in R^n in a polyhedron P in R^n, by solving a certain entropy maximization…

Let ${\mathbb E}^d$ denote the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. The $r$-ball body generated by a given set in ${\mathbb E}^d$ is the intersection of balls of radius $r$ centered at the points of the given set. In this paper we prove the…

We show the existence of a limiting distribution $\cD_\cC$ of the adequately normalized discrepancy function of a random translation on a torus relative to a strictly convex set $\cC$. Using a correspondence between the small divisors in…

In noncommutative probability theory independence can be based on free products instead of tensor products. This yields a highly noncommutative theory: free probability . Here we show that the classical Shannon's entropy power inequality…

We obtain optimal inequalities for the volume of the polar of random sets, generated for instance by the convex hull of independent random vectors in Euclidean space. Extremizers are given by random vectors uniformly distributed in…

A sum where each of the $N$ summands can be independently chosen from two choices yields $2^N$ possible summation outcomes. There is an $\mathcal{O}(K^2)$-algorithm that finds the $K$ smallest/largest of these sums by evading the…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which slides freely in a ball. Let $K^{(n)}$ denote the intersection of $n$ closed half-spaces containing $K$ whose bounding hyperplanes are independent and identically distributed according to a…

Sidon sets are those sets such that the sums of two of its elements never coincide. They go back to the 30s when Sidon asked for the maximal size of a subset of consecutive integers with that property. This question is now answered in a…

We study the problem of learning a high-density region of an arbitrary distribution over $\mathbb{R}^d$. Given a target coverage parameter $\delta$, and sample access to an arbitrary distribution $D$, we want to output a confidence set $S…
