For $N\geq n$, let $P_{N,n}$ be a random polytope in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with vertices $\pm X_i$, $1\leq i\leq N$, where $X_1,\dots,X_N$ are i.i.d standard Gaussian vectors in ${\mathbb R}^n$. Random polytopes $P_{N,n}$, as well as their duals,…

It is known that polytopes with at most two nonsimple vertices are reconstructible from their graphs, and that $d$-polytopes with at most $d-2$ nonsimple vertices are reconstructible from their 2-skeletons. Here we close the gap between 2…

We study vectors chosen at random from a compact convex polytope in $\mathbb{R}^n$ given by a finite number of linear constraints. We determine which projections of these random vectors are asymptotically normal as $n\to\infty$. Marginal…

For a stationary Poisson hyperplane tessellation $X$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, whose directional distribution satisfies some mild conditions (which hold in the isotropic case, for example), it was recently shown that with probability one every…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. A Steiner convex partition is a tiling of ${\rm conv}(S)$ with empty convex bodies. For every integer $d$, we show that $S$ admits a Steiner convex partition with at most $\lceil…

In this paper we present several results on the expected complexity of a convex hull of $n$ points chosen uniformly and independently from a convex shape. (i) We show that the expected number of vertices of the convex hull of $n$ points,…

Let $X$ be a finite set in $Z^d$. We consider the problem of optimizing linear function $f(x) = c^T x$ on $X$, where $c\in Z^d$ is an input vector. We call it a problem $X$. A problem $X$ is related with linear program $\max\limits_{x \in…

This is an overview of results from our experiment of merging two seemingly unrelated disciplines - higher algebraic K-theory of rings and the theory of lattice polytopes. The usual K-theory is the ``theory of a unit simplex''. A conjecture…

Consider the random polytope, that is given by the convex hull of a Poisson point process on a smooth convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove central limit theorems for continuous motion invariant valuations including the Will's functional…

In the spirit of the Genetics of the Regular Figures, by L. Fejes T\'oth, we prove the following theorem: If $2n$ points are selected in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean ball $B^n$ so that the smallest distance between any two of them is as…

We survey recent (and not so recent) results concerning arrangements of lines, points and other geometric objects and the applications these results have in theoretical computer science and combinatorics. The three main types of problems we…

In this paper we explicitly estimate the number of points in a subset $A \subset \R^{d}$ as a function of the maximum angle $\angle A$ that any three of these points form, provided $\angle A < \theta_d := \arccos(-\frac 1 {d}) \in…

We consider the following geometric optimization problem: find a convex polygon of maximum area contained in a given simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices. We give a randomized near-linear-time $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm for…

Consider N equally-spaced points on a circle of circumference N. Choose at random n points out of $N$ on this circle and append clockwise an arc of integral length k to each such point. The resulting random set is made of a random number of…

We examine how the measure and the number of vertices of the convex hull of a random sample of $n$ points from an arbitrary probability measure in $\mathbf{R}^d$ relates to the wet part of that measure. This extends classical results for…

Let $K_n$ denote the number of distinct values among the first $n$ terms of an infinite exchangeable sequence of random variables $(X_1,X_2,\ldots)$. We prove for $n=3$ that the extreme points of the convex set of all possible laws of $K_3$…

Given a finite collection P of convex n-polytopes in RP^n (n>1), we consider a real projective manifold M which is obtained by gluing together the polytopes in P along their facets in such a way that the union of any two adjacent polytopes…

Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima asserts that the volume of a 0-symmetric convex body K over the covolume of a lattice \Lambda can be bounded above by a quantity involving all the successive minima of K with respect to…

Given a convex body C in R^d containing the origin in its interior and a real number tau > 1 we seek to construct a polytope P in C with as few vertices as possible such that C in tau P. Our construction is nearly optimal for a wide range…

Let K be a convex set in R d and let K $\lambda$ be the convex hull of a homogeneous Poisson point process P $\lambda$ of intensity $\lambda$ on K. When K is a simple polytope, we establish scaling limits as $\lambda$ $\rightarrow$ $\infty$…
