Abstract: 

This talk is focused on the comparison between the probabilities that the sum and difference of two independent, identically distributed random elements take values in very general sets. We prove these distribution-free probabilistic inequalities by showing that underlying them are inequalities of extremal combinatorial nature, related among other things to classical sphere packing/covering problems.
