$d$-ball approximation for $d\gg 1$ with a convex hull of random points on its boundary

Given a $d$-ball $\mathcal{S}^{d}$, let $P_n$ a set of $n$ points selected uniformly at random on the boundary $\mathcal{S}^{d-1}$ of $\mathcal{S}^{d}$. Let $\mathcal{C}_n$ the convex hull of $P_n$. ...

Elementary precise estimate of the covering number of euclidean balls by hypercubes

I am looking for a straightforward way to upper bound the covering number of a $d$-dimensional euclidean ball by $\ell_\infty$-balls of radius $\varepsilon$, which I will call cubes of sidelength $2\...

Upper bounds for high-dimensional spherical codes given the covering radius

I assume that this sort of question has already been considered at great length. Nevertheless, I could not find an answer to this question in the related literature. Given a constant $a\in (0,2]$, ...
