Superconcentration in random geometric structures
Description Phase 2
The first aim of this project "Superconcentration in random geometric structures"
is to investigate the phenomenon of superconcentration for measurable
functionals of a Poisson process on an abstract space, specifically, to
find some very general conditions under which superconcentration holds.
Secondly, our goal is to improve known state of the art methods, such as the
second-order Poincaré inequality, to obtain quantitative central limit theorems
for Poisson functionals that are superconcentrated. Finally, we aim to
exploit the connection of superconcentration to the notion of noise-sensitivity.
One of our main goals is to study (sharp) noise-sensitivity in various continuum
percolation models by exploring this connection, as well as other
avenues based on spectral methods and differential inequalities.
