We determine the maximal non-central hyperplane sections of the n-dimensional $l_1$-ball if the fixed distance of the hyperplane to the origin is between $1 / \sqrt 3$ and $1 / \sqrt 2$. This adds to a result of Liu and Tkocz who considered…

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…

We determine the maximal hyperplane sections of the regular $n$-simplex, if the distance of the hyperplane to the centroid is fairly large, i.e. larger than the distance of the centroid to the midpoint of edges. Similar results for the…

Ball's celebrated cube slicing (1986) asserts that among hyperplane sections of the cube in $\mathbb{R}^n$, the central section orthogonal to $(1,1,0,\dots,0)$ has the greatest volume. We show that the same continues to hold for slicing…

Eskenazis, Nayar and Tkocz have shown recently some resilience of Ball's celebrated cube slicing theorem, namely its analogue in $l^n_p$ for large $p$. We show that the complex analogue, i.e. resilience of the polydisc slicing theorem…

We prove that the (n-2)-dimensional surface area (perimeter) of central hyperplane sections of the n-dimensional unit cube is maximal for the hyperplane perpendicular to the vector (1,1,0,...,0). This gives a positive answer to a question…

In this paper, we prove that the Euclidean distance between two independent random vectors uniformly distributed on $l_p^n$-balls $(1 \leq p \leq \infty)$ or on its boundary satisfies a central limit theorem as $n$ tends to $\infty$. Also,…

We prove that for all fixed $p > 2$, the translative packing density of unit $\ell_p$-balls in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is at most $2^{(\gamma_p + o(1))n}$ with $\gamma_p < - 1/p$. This is the first exponential improvement in high dimensions since…

In this paper we study the problem of maximizing the distance to a given point $C_0$ over a polytope $\mathcal{P}$. Assuming that the polytope is circumscribed by a known ball we construct an intersection of balls which preserves the…

To prove by probabilistic methods that every $(n-1)$-dimensional section of the unit cube in $R^n$ has volume at most $\sqrt 2$, K. Ball made essential use of the inequality $$ \frac{1}{\pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \left(\frac{\sin^2…

We prove that the highest density of non-overlapping translates of a given centrally symmetric convex domain relative to its outer parallel domain of given outer radius is attained by a lattice packing in the Euclidean plane. This…

We find an optimal upper bound on the volume of the John ellipsoid of a $k$-dimensional section of the $n$-dimensional cube, and an optimal lower bound on the volume of the L\"owner ellipsoid of a projection of the $n$-dimensional…

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…

We prove that for any $2<p<\infty$ and for every $n$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p$, represented on $\mathbb R^n$, whose unit ball $B_X$ is in Lewis' position one has the following two-level Gaussian concentration inequality: \[ \mathbb…

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…

Average distance between two points in a unit-volume body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ tends to infinity as $n \to \infty$. However, for two small subsets of volume $\varepsilon > 0$ the situation is different. For unit-volume cubes and…

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 $k_n\in\{1,\ldots,n-1\}$,…

We provide sharp lower and upper bounds for the Gelfand widths of $\ell_p$-balls in the $N$-dimensional $\ell_q^N$-space for $0<p\leq 1$ and $p<q \leq 2$. Such estimates are highly relevant to the novel theory of compressive sensing, and…

The sum of the first $n \geq 1$ eigenvalues of the Laplacian is shown to be maximal among simplexes for the regular simplex (the regular tetrahedron, in three dimensions), maximal among parallelepipeds for the hypercube, and maximal among…

We show that the maximal non-central hyperplane sections of the regular n-simplex of side-length sqrt 2 at a fixed distance t to the centroid are those parallel to a face of the simplex, if $\sqrt{(n-2)/(3(n+1))} < t <…
