 nstrained convex bodies with maximal affine surface area</a>\nby Elisabeth
  Werner (Case Western Reserve University) as part of Online asymptotic geo
 metric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nGiven a convex body K in R^n\, we s
 tudy the maximal affine surface area of K\, i.e.\, the quantity AS(K) = su
 p_{C} as(C) where as(C) denotes the affine surface area of C\, and the sup
 remum is taken over all convex subsets of K. In particular\, we give asymp
 totic estimates on the size of AS(K).\n

 tric distortion of random spaces</a>\nby Uri Grupel (University of Innsbru
 k) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\n
 We consider a random set in the unit circle. Is the induced discrete metri
 c of the set closer to that of another independent random set or to the ev
 enly spaced set of the same cardinality? We measure the distortion by look
 ing at the smallest bi-Lipschitz norm of all the bijections between the tw
 o sets. Since the distortion between two random sets has infinite expectat
 ion\, the talk will focus on the median. We show that two random sets have
  "typically" smaller distortion than a random set and an evenly spaced set

  the fundamental gap and convex sets in hyperbolic space</a>\nby Alina Sta
 ncu (Concordia University) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis
  seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe lower bound on the fundamental gap of the Lapl
 acian on convex domains in R^n\, with Dirichlet boundary conditions\, has 
 a long history and has been finally settled a few years ago with parabolic
  methods by Andrews and Clutterbuck. More recently\, the same lower bound\
 , which depends on the diameter of the domain\, has been proved for convex
  sets on the standard sphere in several stages with several groups of auth
 ors\, 2016-2018. Over the past year\, together with collaborators\, we hav
 e found that the gap on the hyperbolic space behaves strikingly different 
 and we aim to explain it\, particularly for this audience\, as a differenc
 e in the nature of convex sets in H^n versus R^n or S^n.\n

 gidity of Riemannian embeddings of discrete metric spaces</a>\nby Bo'az Kl
 artag (Weizmann Institute) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis
  seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nLet M be a complete\, connected Riemannian surface
  and suppose that S is a discrete subset of M. What can we learn about M f
 rom the knowledge of all distances in the surface between pairs of points 
 of S? We prove that if the distances in S correspond to the distances in a
  2-dimensional lattice\, or more generally in an arbitrary net in R^2\, th
 en M is isometric to the Euclidean plane. We thus find that Riemannian emb
 eddings of certain discrete metric spaces are rather rigid. A corollary is
  that a subset of Z^3 that strictly contains a two-dimensional lattice can
 not be isometrically embedded in any complete Riemannian surface. This is 
 a joint work with M. Eilat.\n

 rrespond with the class of convex bodies containing the origin\, so by stu
 dying flowers we are also studying convex bodies from a new viewpoint. We 
 will give several equivalent definitions of flowers and describe some of t
 heir basic properties. We will also discuss how to apply an arbitrary (rea
 l) function to a flower\, and the corresponding construction for convex bo
 dies. In particular\, we will explain how to raise a flower to a given pow
 er. Finally\, we will discuss some elements of the asymptotic theory of fl

 which actually gives better estimates than the corresponding estimates for
  convex bodies. Based on two papers by the speakers\, the first of which i

 as a few applications to integral geometry. In the first part of the talk

 algebra of even translation invariant valuations over other locally compac

 odewise methods for tensor dimension reduction</a>\nby Elizaveta Rebrova (
 UCLA) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
 t\nAlthough tensors are a natural multi-modal extension of matrices\, goin
 g beyond two modes (that is\, rows and columns) presents many interesting 
 non-trivialities. For example\, the notion of singular values is no longer
  well-defined\, and there are various versions of the rank. One of the mos
 t natural (and mathematically challenging) definitions of the tensor rank 
 is so-called CP-rank: for a tensor X\, it is a minimal number of rank one 
 tensors whose linear combination constitutes X. Main focus of my talk will
  be an extension of the celebrated Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma to low CP-r
 ank tensors. Namely\, I will discuss how modewise randomized projections c
 an preserve tensor geometry in the subspace oblivious way (that is\, a pro
 jection model is not adapted for a particular tensor subspace). Modewise m
 ethods are especially interesting for the tensors as they preserve the mul
 ti-modal structure of the data\, acting on a tensor directly\, without ini
 tial conversion of tensors to matrices or vectors. I will also discuss an 
 application for the least squares fitting CP model for tensors. Based on o
 ur joint work with Mark Iwen\, Deanna Needell\, and Ali Zare.\n

  and an $L_p$-Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality\, 10:30-10:50\n\nAbstract: t
 he classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality asserts that the volume of convex 
 Minkowski combination exhibits (1/n)-concavity when applied for any pair o
 f convex bodies (or more generally\, Borel sets). Many advancements of thi
 s inequality have been studied throughout the year\, famous examples of su
 ch mathematicians who pursued these studies are Prekopa\, Leindler\, and B
 rascamp and Lieb. The goal of this talk is to introduce the "L_p" versions
  of such inequalities following the L_p-Minkowski sum introduced by Firey 
 (and later more generally by Lutwak\, Yang\, and Zhang)\, as well as it's 
 associated L_p_ Brunn-Minkowksi inequality. In particular\, we show that s
 uch inequalities hold in the class of s-concave measures\, and discuss the
  related isoperimetric inequality (joint with S. Xing).\n\nJesús Yepes Ni
 colás\, Universidad de Murcia\, Spain\n\nTopic: Further inequalities for 
 the Wills functional of convex bodies.\n\nAbstract: The Wills functional o
 f a convex body\, defined as the sum of its intrinsic volumes\, turned out
  to have many interesting applications and properties. In this talk\, maki
 ng profit of the fact that it can be represented as the integral of a log-
 concave function\, which is furthermore the Asplund product of other two l
 og-concave functions\, we will show new properties of the Wills functional
 . Among others\, we get Brunn-Minkowski and Rogers-Shephard type inequalit
 ies for this functional and show that the cube of edge-length 2 maximizes 
 it among all 0-symmetric convex bodies in John position. Joint work with D

 rofton formulas in isotropic pseudo-Riemannian spaces</a>\nby Dima Faifman
  (Tel Aviv University) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis sem
 inar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe length of a curve in the plane can be computed by 
 counting the intersection points with a line\, and integrating over all li
 nes. More generally\, the intrinsic volumes (quermassintegrals) of a subse
 t of Euclidean space can be computed by Crofton integrals\, bringing forth
  their fundamental role in integral geometry. In spherical and hyperbolic 
 geometry\, such formulas are also known and classical. In pseudo-Riemannia
 n isotropic spaces\, such as de Sitter or anti-de Sitter space\, one can s
 imilarly ask for an integral-geometric formula for the volume of a submani
 fold\, or more generally for the intrinsic volumes of a subset\, which wer
 e introduced only recently. I will explain how to obtain and apply such fo
 rmulas\, and how in fact there is a universal Crofton formula depending on
  a complex parameter extending the Riemannian Crofton formulas\, for which
  all indefinite signatures are distributional boundary values. This is a j
 oint work in progress with Andreas Bernig and Gil Solanes.\n

 harp Isoperimetric Inequalities for Affine Quermassintegrals</a>\nby Emanu
 el Milman (Technion\, Haifa) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analys
 is seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe affine quermassintegrals associated to a con
 vex body in $\\R^n$ are affine-invariant analogues of the classical intrin
 sic volumes from the Brunn--Minkowski theory\, and thus constitute a centr
 al pillar of affine convex geometry. They were introduced in the 1980's by
  E. Lutwak\, who conjectured that among all convex bodies of a given volum
 e\, the $k$-th affine quermassintegral is minimized precisely on the famil
 y of ellipsoids. The known cases $k=1$ and $k=n-1$ correspond to the class
 ical Blaschke--Santal\\'o and Petty projection inequalities\, respectively
 . In this work we confirm Lutwak's conjecture\, including characterization
  of the equality cases\, for all values of $k=1\,\\ldots\,n-1$\, in a sing
 le unified framework. In fact\, it turns out that ellipsoids are the only 
 \\emph{local} minimizers with respect to the Hausdorff topology. In additi
 on\, we address a related conjecture of Lutwak on the validity of certain 
 Alexandrov--Fenchel-type inequalities for affine (and more generally $L^p$
 -moment) quermassintegrals. The case $p=0$ corresponds to a sharp averaged
  Loomis--Whitney isoperimetric inequality. Based on joint work with Amir Y
 ehudayoff.\n

 onvex polytopes that tile space with translations: Voronoi domains and spe

 In this talk I am going to discuss convex d-dimensional polytopes that til
 e R^d with translations and their properties related to two conjectures. T
 he first conjecture\, the Fuglede conjecture\, claims that every spectral 
 set in R^d tiles the space with translations\; this conjecture was recentl
 y settled for convex domains by Lev and Matolcsi. The second conjecture\, 
 the Voronoi conjecture\, claims that every convex polytope that tiles R^d 
 with translations is the Voronoi domain for some d-dimensional lattice. Th
 e conjecture originates from the Voronoi�s geometric theory of positive 
 definite quadratic forms and is related to many questions in mathematical 
 crystallography including Hilbert�s 18th problem. I mostly plan to discu
 ss recent progress in the Voronoi conjecture and the proof of the conjectu
 re for five-dimensional parallelohedra\; in the general setting the Vorono
 i conjecture is still open. The talk is based on a joint work with Alexand
 er Magazinov (Skoltech).\n

 omputational Barriers to Estimation from Low-Degree Polynomials</a>\nby Ts
 elil Schramm (Stanford University) as part of Online asymptotic geometric 
 analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nOne fundamental goal of high-dimensional s
 tatistics is to detect and recover structure from noisy data. But even for
  simple settings (e.g. a planted low-rank matrix perturbed by noise)\, the
  computational complexity of estimation is sometimes poorly understood. A 
 growing body of work studies low-degree polynomials as a proxy for computa
 tional complexity: it has been demonstrated in various settings that low-d
 egree polynomials of the data can match the statistical performance of the
  best known polynomial-time algorithms for detection. But prior work has f
 ailed to address settings in which there is a "detection-recovery gap" and
  detection is qualitatively easier than recovery.\n\nIn this talk\, I'll d
 escribe a recent result in which we extend the method of low-degree polyno
 mials to address recovery problems. As applications\, we resolve (in the l
 ow-degree framework) open problems about the computational complexity of r
 ecovery for the planted submatrix and planted dense subgraph problems.\n\n

 n integrable domains and surfaces</a>\nby Mark Agranovsky (Bar Ilan Univer
 sity) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
 t\nIntegrability of domains or surfaces in R^n is defined in terms of sect
 ional or solid volume functions\, evaluating the volumes of the intersecti
 ons with affine planes or half-spaces. Study of relations between the geom
 etry of domains and types of their volume functions is motivated by a prob
 lem of V.I. Arnold about algebraically integrable bodies\, which in turn g
 oes back to celebrated Newton's Lemma about ovals. The talk will be devote
 d to a survey of some recent works in this area.\n

 ew inequalities for mixed volumes of convex bodies and valuations theory</
 a>\nby Semyon Alesker (Tel Aviv University) as part of Online asymptotic g
 eometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nI will present a few new inequali
 ties for mixed volumes of general convex bodies. In a special case they ca
 n be considered as a new isoperimetric property of Euclidean ball in R^n. 
 The inequalities are consequences of a recent result of J. Kotrbaty on Hod
 ge-Riemann type inequalities on the space of translation invariant valuati
 ons on convex sets.\n

 ingularity of discrete random matrices</a>\nby Vishesh Jain (Stanford Univ
 ersity) as part of Online asymptotic geometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstr
 act\nLet $M_n$ be an $n\\times n$ random matrix whose entries are i.i.d co
 pies of a discrete random variable $\\xi$. It has been conjectured that th
 e dominant reason for the singularity of $M_n$ is the event that a row or 
 column of $M_n$ is zero\, or that two rows or columns of $M_n$ coincide (u
 p to a sign). I will discuss recent work\, joint with Ashwin Sah (MIT) and
  Mehtaab Sawhney (MIT)\, towards the resolution of this conjecture.\n

  sharp form of Assouad's embedding theorem for Carnot groups</a>\nby Sang 
 Woo Ryoo (Princeton University) as part of Online asymptotic geometric ana
 lysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nAssouad's embedding theorem\, which embeds sn
 owflakes of doubling metric spaces into Euclidean spaces\, has recently be
 en sharpened in many different aspects. Following the work of Tao\, which 
 establishes an optimal Assouad embedding theorem for the Heisenberg group\
 , we establish it for general Carnot groups. One main tool is a Nash--Mose
 r type iteration scheme developed by Tao\, which we extend into the settin
 g of Carnot groups. The other tool\, which is the main novelty of this pap
 er\, is a certain orthonormal basis extension theorem in the setting of ge
 neral doubling metric spaces. We anticipate that this latter tool could be
  used for other applications.\n

 nequalities for the Derivatives of the Radon Transform on Convex Bodies</a

 asymptotic geometric analysis seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nIt has been shown tha
 t the sup-norm of the Radon transform of a probability density defined on 
 an origin-symmetric convex body of volume 1 is bounded from below by a pos
 itive constant that depends only on the dimension. Using Fourier analysis\
 , we extend this estimate to the derivatives of the Radon transform. We al
 so provide a comparison theorem for these derivatives.\n
