Our starting point is an improved version of a result of D. Hajela related to a question of Koml{o}s: we show that if $f(n)$ is a function such that $limlimits_{ntoinfty }f(n)=infty $ and $f(n)=o(n)$, there exists $n_0=n_0(f)$ such that for every $ngeqslant n_0$ and any $Ssubseteq {-1,1}^n$ with cardinality $|S|leqslant 2^{n/f(n)}$ one can find orthonormal vectors $x_1,ldots ,x_nin {mathbb R}^n$ that satisfy $$|epsilon_1x_1+cdots +epsilon_nx_n|_{infty }geqslant csqrt{log f(n)}$$ for all $(epsilon_1,ldots ,epsilon_n)in S$. We obtain analogous results in the case where $x_1,ldots ,x_n$ are independent random points uniformly distributed in the Euclidean unit ball $B_2^n$ or any symmetric convex body, and the $ell_{infty }^n$-norm is replaced by an arbitrary norm on ${mathbb R}^n$.

Let $C$ and $K$ be centrally symmetric convex bodies of volume $1$ in ${mathbb R}^n$. We provide upper bounds for the multi-integral expression begin{equation*}|{bf t}|_{C^s,K}=int_{C}cdotsint_{C}Big|sum_{j=1}^st_jx_jBig|_K,dx_1cdots dx_send{equation*} in the case where $C$ is isotropic. Our approach provides an alternative proof of the sharp lower bound, due to Gluskin and V. Milman, for this quantity. We also present some applications to randomized vector balancing problems.
A question related to some conjectures of Lutwak about the affine quermassintegrals of a convex body $K$ in ${mathbb R}^n$ asks whether for every convex body $K$ in ${mathbb R}^n$ and all $1leqslant kleqslant n$ $$Phi_{[k]}(K):={rm vol}_n(K)^{-frac{1}{n}}left (int_{G_{n,k}}{rm vol}_k(P_F(K))^{-n},d u_{n,k}(F)right )^{-frac{1}{kn}}leqslant csqrt{n/k},$$ where $c>0$ is an absolute constant. We provide an affirmative answer for some broad classes of random polytopes. We also discuss upper bounds for $Phi_{[k]}(K)$ when $K=B_1^n$, the unit ball of $ell_1^n$, and explain how this special instance has implications for the case of a general unconditional convex body $K$.
Let $X$ be a geodesic metric space with $H_1(X)$ uniformly generated. If $X$ has asymptotic dimension one then $X$ is quasi-isometric to an unbounded tree. As a corollary, we show that the asymptotic dimension of the curve graph of a compact, oriented surface with genus $g ge 2$ and one boundary component is at least two.
We obtain new estimates on the maximal operator applied to the Weyl sums. We also consider the quadratic case (that is, Gauss sums) in more details. In wide ranges of parameters our estimates are optimal and match lower bounds. Our approach is based on a combination of ideas of Baker (2021) and Chen and Shparlinski (2020).
Let $D$ denote the distance matrix for an $n+1$ point metric space $(X,d)$. In the case that $X$ is an unweighted metric tree, the sum of the entries in $D^{-1}$ is always equal to $2/n$. Such trees can be considered as affinely independent subsets of the Hamming cube $H_n$, and it was conjectured that the value $2/n$ was minimal among all such subsets. In this paper we confirm this conjecture and give a geometric interpretation of our result which applies to any subset of $H_n$.
