Let $K$ be a $d$ dimensional convex body with a twice continuously differentiable boundary and everywhere positive Gauss-Kronecker curvature. Denote by $K_n$ the convex hull of $n$ points chosen randomly and independently from $K$ according…
We prove the endpoint case of a conjecture of Khot and Moshkovitz related to the Unique Games Conjecture, less a small error. Let $n\geq2$. Suppose a subset $\Omega$ of $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ satisfies…
We derive inequalities for $n$ spin-1/2 systems under the assumption that the hidden-variable theoretical joint probability distribution for any pair of commuting observables is equal to the quantum mechanical one. Fine showed that this…
We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…
We prove the validity of the $p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the intrinsic volume $V_k$, $k=2,\dots, n-1$, of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in a neighborhood of the unit ball, for $0\le p<1$. We also prove that this inequality does…
In this paper we will provide a new proof of the fact that for any convex body $K\subseteq\R^n$ $$ \frac{{{2n}\choose{n}}}{n^n}n\int_0^\infty r^{n-1}\vol_n(K\cap(re_n+K))dr\leq\frac{(\vol_n(K))^{n+1}}{(\vol_{n-1}(P_{e_n^\perp}(K)))^n}, $$…
The mean width of a convex body is the average distance between parallel supporting hyperplanes when the normal direction is chosen uniformly over the sphere. The Simplex Mean Width Conjecture (SMWC) is a longstanding open problem that says…
The following hypothesis was formulated by Goreinov, Tyrtyshnikov, and Zamarashkin in \cite{goreinov1997theory}. If $U$ is $n\times k$ real matrix with the orthonormal columns $(n>k)$, then there exists a submatrix $Q$ of $U$ of size…
Let K be a d-dimensional convex body, and let $K^{(n)}$ be the intersection of n halfspaces containing $K$ whose bounding hyperplanes are independent and identically distributed. Under suitable distributional assumptions, we prove an…
The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin symmetric convex bodies in $\R^n$ with smaller hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is affirmative if $n\leq 3$ and negative if $n\geq 4.$ We consider a class of…
We derive an upper bound on the size of a ball such that the image of the ball under quadratic map is strongly convex and smooth. Our result is the best possible improvement of the analogous result by Polyak in the case of quadratic map. We…
Necessary and sufficient conditions of uniform consistency are explored. A hypothesis is simple. Nonparametric sets of alternatives are bounded convex sets in $\mathbb{L}_p$, $p >1$ with "small" balls deleted. The "small" balls have the…
We provide a natural generalization of a geometric conjecture of F\'{a}ry and R\'{e}dei regarding the volume of the convex hull of $K \subset {\mathbb R}^n$, and its negative image $-K$. We show that it implies Godbersen's conjecture…
Let $K$ be a centrally-symmetric convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and let $\|\cdot\|$ be its induced norm on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We show that if $K \supseteq r B_2^n$ then: \[ \sqrt{n} M(K) \leqslant C \sum_{k=1}^{n} \frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}…
A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ sides are unknown when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we propose an approach to construct convex small $n$-gons of…
In this paper we prove the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture for the case of large radii. Namely, if a finite number of points in Euclidean space $E^n$ is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of points does not decrease, then there…
We generalize the classical Hardy and Faber-Krahn inequalities to arbitrary functions on a convex body $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, not necessarily vanishing on the boundary $\partial \Omega$. This reduces the study of the Neumann…
More than twenty years ago, Manickam, Mikl\'{o}s, and Singhi conjectured that for any integers $n, k$ satisfying $n \geq 4k$, every set of $n$ real numbers with nonnegative sum has at least $\binom{n-1}{k-1}$ $k$-element subsets whose sum…
In this paper we discuss a couple of observations related to polynomial convexity. More precisely, (i) We observe that the union of finitely many disjoint closed balls with centres in $\cup_{\theta\in[0,\pi/2]}e^{i\theta}V$ is polynomially…
Having its origin in theoretical computer science, the Kannan-Lov\'asz-Simonovits (KLS) conjecture is one of the major open problems in asymptotic convex geometry and high-dimensional probability theory today. In this work, we establish a…
