Random sections of p-ellipsoids and optimal recovery

Activity: Talk or presentation › Invited talk › science-to-science
Description
Understanding whether the circumradius of a random section of a set is close to the minimal circum-
radius is related to understanding the power of random (Gaussian) information compared to optimal
information for recovering vectors from this set. We consider p-ellipsoids, which are generalizations of
ellipsoids, and present recent results on the power of random information for them. In the case of poly-
nomially decaying semiaxes, we find that for a certain range of parameters we have a threshold of decay,
above of which Gaussian information is close to optimal and below of which it is useless. Concepts from
compressed sensing will be used for an upper bound for non-convex p-ellipsoids. This is joint work with
A. Hinrichs and J. Prochno.
