We study the $L^p(\mu)$-norm of the metric projection onto a closed, convex set $C \subset \mathbf{R}^n$ when $\mu$ is the uniform measure on the sphere or the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbf{R}^n$. Up to universal constants, we determine the optimal reverse H\"older inequalities (i.e., $L^q-L^p$ estimates for $q>p$) for both settings and for all $1 \leq p<q \leq \infty$. The optimal constants in these inequalities depend polynomially on the dimension $n$. We establish upper bounds for the expected norm of the metric projection for a wide class of probability measures. Our inequalities improve and extend previous results of S. Chatterjee.
Let $2\le k\le n$, let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be open and convex, and let $u$ be a convex viscosity solution of $\sigma_k(D^2u)=1$ in $\Omega$. We prove that the set on which $u$ fails to be locally $C^2$ has vanishing $(n-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. In the intermediate range $3\le k<n$, this gives a codime...
Let $K\subset\R^n$ be a convex body in isotropic position. We prove the optimal mean-width estimate \[ M^*(K)\leq C\sqrt{n\log n}. \] The main new ingredient is a geometric inequality relating the Gaussian mean of the support function to its mean under the uniform measure on $K$, obtained through a heat-flow argument....
Let $S^n$ be the unit round sphere with its intrinsic angular metric, normalized so that $\operatorname{diam}S^n=\pi$. For finite homogeneous metric spaces $X$, put \[ \delta_n=\inf_X d_{GH}(X,S^n). \] The main open problem is whether $\inf_{n\ge2}\delta_n>0$. Gelander's theorem gives $\delta_n>0$ in each fixed dimensi...
Let $X=G/K$ be a symmetric space of noncompact type, of dimension $n$ and rank $r$, and let $Y=\Gamma\backslash X$. Sarnak's local bound for an $L^2$-normalized spherical joint eigenfunction with regular tempered parameter of size $T$ is $\|\phi\|_\infty\ll T^{(n-r)/2}$. We prove $o(T^{(n-r)/2})$ locally uniformly on e...
We prove a sufficient criterion for closed subspaces of operator spaces containing the finite-rank operators to have the uniform ball-covering property. Let $F$ be a separable uniformly convex Banach space, and let $\Lambda_F>1$ be a constant determined by its modulus of convexity. If $F$ has the $\pi_\lambda$-property...
Fix an integer $p\geq 2$ and $0<s<1$. We construct an ergodic $\times p$-invariant measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb T^2$ of dimension $s$, such that every line projection preserves dimension, including when the corresponding projected IFS has exact overlaps. In fact, our measure assigns mass $O(w^s)$ to every planar tube of w...
