We develop a simple geometric variant of the Kabatiansky-Levenshtein approach to proving sphere packing density bounds. This variant gives a small improvement to the best bounds known in Euclidean space (from 1978) and an exponential improvement in...

Several examples of Hamiltonian evolution equations for systems with infinitely many degrees of freedom are presented. It is sketched how these equations can be derived from some underlying quantum dynamics ("mean-field limit") and what kind of...

Abstract: We give near-tight lower bounds for the sparsity required in several dimensionality reducing linear maps. In particular, we show: (1) The sparsity achieved by [Kane-Nelson, SODA 2012] in the sparse Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma is optimal up...

In small dimension a random geometric graph behaves very differently from a standard Erdös-Rényi random graph. On the other hand, when the dimension tends to infinity (with the number of vertices being fixed) both models coincide. In this talk we...
