    The paper studies statistical properties of the convex hull formed by \(n\) uniformly distributed points in a disk in \(\mathbb{R}^ 2\). The main results are that the asymptotic variance of the area outside this convex hull is of the order \(n^{-5/3}\), and that the asymptotic distribution of this area is normal.
