Abstract: Statistical properties of distances between random points in an n-dimensional hypercube at large dimensions are investigated. An exact distance distribution function is constructed between random uniformly distributed points in the range of values r < 1 for an arbitrary dimension of the hypercube. An exact asymptotic distribution of distances between random points whose coordinates are independent and identically distributed is also constructed with increasing hypercube dimension. These results have two aspects of practical applications. First, in numerically processing large-dimensional random vectors, the task of constructing the distribution of distances between them is computationally difficult, so the theoretical function can serve as a good approximation and can significantly reduce the calculations. Second, in analyzing a large amount of data, the theoretical probability that the distance between them is less than one can be used as an estimate of their independence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
