Anticoncentration of sums of random vectors: on conjectures of
Leader-Radcliffe and Lee Jones
Tomas Juškevičius
Czech Academy of Sciences
February 24, 2022, 12:20 in S6
Abstract
In this talk we shall address the topic anticoncentration inequalities
for sums of random vectors. In particular, we shall asymptotically
establish two conjectures: one by Lee Jones (1978) and another by
Leader-Radcliffe (1994). Perhaps surprisingly, the essential ingredient
to establish the latter result is the Strong Perfect Graph Theorem by
Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas (2002). The talk is based on
recent joint work with V. Kurauskas (Vilnius University).
