Probability and analysis on convex bodies

A. V. Kolesnikov

Faculty of Mathematics, Higher School of Economics

Abstract: Uniform distributions on convex bodies (more generally: log-concave measures) admit nice geometric and analytic properties. It this talk we discuss isoperimetric and Sobolev-type inequalities. This branch of research is highly motivated by several beautiful open problems. We discuss new result from this field with a special emphasis on attempts to unify probabilistic and differential-geometric approaches.
