Blaschke--Santaló inequalities with respect to costs

Alexander V. Kolesnikov, Galyna V. Livshyts, Liran Rotem

We study functional Blaschke--Santaló inequalities in which the inner product is replaced by a cost. An inequality on each orthant, combined with Steiner symmetrization, gives a su…

Kohler-Jobin meets Ehrhard: the sharp lower bound for the Gaussian principal frequency while the Gaussian torsional rigidity is fixed, via rearrangements

Orli Herscovici, Galyna V. Livshyts

In this note, we provide an adaptation of the Kohler-Jobin rearrangement technique to the setting of the Gauss space. As a result, we prove the Gaussian analogue of the Kohler-Jobi…

Asymptotic Bounds on the Combinatorial Diameter of Random Polytopes

Gilles Bonnet, Daniel Dadush, Uri Grupel +2

The combinatorial diameter of a polytope is the maximum shortest path distance between any pair of vertices. In this paper, we provide upper and lower…
