In this paper, we prove an upper bound on the second non-zero Laplacian eigenvalue on $n$-dimensional real projective space. The sharp result for 2-dimensions was shown by Nadirashvili and Penskoi and later by Karpukhin when the metric…
A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ vertices are not known when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we construct a family of convex small $n$-gons, $n=2^s$…
We study asymptotic lower and upper bounds for the sizes of constant dimension codes with respect to the subspace or injection distance, which is used in random linear network coding. In this context we review known upper bounds and show…
We derive strong observational limits on any possible large-scale spatial variation in the values of physical 'constants' whose space-time evolution is driven by a scalar field. The limits are imposed by the isotropy of the microwave…
These notes are focused on three recent results in discrete random geometry, namely: the proof by Duminil-Copin and Smirnov that the connective constant of the hexagonal lattice is \sqrt{2+\sqrt 2}; the proof by the author and Manolescu of…
The motivation of this work stems from the numerical approximation of bounded functions by polynomials satisfying the same bounds. The present contribution makes use of the recent algebraic characterization found in [B. Despr\'es, Numer.…
The main result of this paper is that for any norm on a complex or real $n$-dimensional linear space, every extremal basis satisfies inverted triangle inequality with scaling factor $2^n-1$. Furthermore, the constant $2^n-1$ is tight. We…
Estimates of the fractal dimension $D$ of the set of galaxies in the universe, based on ever improving data sets, tend to settle on $D\approx 2$. This result raised a raging debate due to its glaring contradiction with astrophysical models…
Let $b_{\bullet}$ be a sequence of integers $1 < b_1 \leq b_2 \leq \cdots \leq b_{n-1}$. Let $M(b_{\bullet})$ be the space parameterizing nondegenerate, rational curves of degree $e$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with ordinary singularities such that…
We take points and planes as fundamental, lines as derived, in an axiomatic formulation of three-dimensional projective space, the self-dual nature of which formulation renders automatic the principle of duality.
We prove that real projective space RP^{n-3} is homeomorphic to the space of all isometry classes of n-gons in the plane with one side of length n-2 and all other sides of length 1. This makes the topological complexity of real projective…
Let $\mathbb{B}_p^N$ be the $N$-dimensional unit ball corresponding to the $\ell_p$-norm. For each $N\in\mathbb N$ we sample a uniform random subspace $E_N$ of fixed dimension $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and consider the volume of $\mathbb{B}_p^N$…
There are two main thrusts in the theory of regular and chiral polytopes: the abstract, purely combinatorial aspect, and the geometric one of realizations. This brief survey concentrates on the latter. The dimension of a faithful…
We fully characterize orthogonal projections of infinite right circular (round) cones in real Hilbert spaces. Another interpretation is that, given two vectors in a real Hilbert space, we establish the optimal estimate on the angle between…
Consider the projections of a finite set $A\subset R^n$ onto the coordinate hyperplanes. How small can the sum of the sizes of these projections be, given the size of $A$? In a different form, this problem has been studied earlier in the…
We use methods of approximation theory to find the absolute minima on the sphere of the potential of spherical $(2m-3)$-designs with a non-trivial index $2m$ that are contained in a union of $m$ parallel hyperplanes, $m\geq 2$, whose…
In 3-d the average projected area of a convex solid is 1/4 the surface area, as Cauchy showed in the 19th century. In general, the ratio in n dimensions may be obtained from Cauchy's surface area formula, which is in turn a special case of…
A notion of sectional regularity for a homogeneous ideal $I$, which measures the regularity of its generic sections with respect to linear spaces of various dimensions, is introduced. It is related to axial constants defined as the…
The main purpose of this survey is to gather results on the boundedness of the Bergman projection. First, we shall go over some equivalent norms on weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_\omega$ which are useful in the study of this question. In…
We consider the configuration space of planar $n$-gons with fixed perimeter, which is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^{n-2}$. The oriented area function has the minimal number of critical points on the…
