Let $\mu$ be a non-negative Borel measure on $R^d$ satisfying that the measure of a cube in $R^d$ is smaller than the length of its side raised to the $n$-th power, $0<n\leq d$. In this article we study the class of weights related to the…

Uniform measures are defined as the functionals on the space of bounded uniformly continuous functions that are continuous on bounded uniformly equicontinuous sets. If every cardinal has measure zero then every countably additive measure is…

Here we examine some connections between the notions of generalized arithmetic means, geodesics, Lagrange-Hamilton dynamics and Bregman divergences. In a previous paper we developed a predictive interpretation of generalized arithmetic…

Topological measures and quasi-linear functionals generalize measures and linear functionals. We define and study deficient topological measures on locally compact spaces. A deficient topological measure on a locally compact space is a set…

Given a measure on the Thurston boundary of Teichmueller space, one can pick a geodesic ray joining some basepoint to a randomly chosen point on the boundary. Different choices of measures may yield typical geodesics with different…

A classical theorem of Hutchinson asserts that if an iterated function system acts on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by similitudes and satisfies the open set condition then it admits a unique self-similar measure with Hausdorff dimension equal to the…

We study the Reidemeister torsion and the analytic torsion of the $m$ dimensional disc in the Euclidean $m$ dimensional space, using the base for the homology defined by Ray and Singer in \cite{RS}. We prove that the Reidemeister torsion…

We relate Fuglede-Kadison determinants to entropy of algebraic actions of sofic groups in essentially complete generality. This generalizes recent results of Hanfeng Li and Andreas Thom from the amenable case to the sofic case, as well as…

Via a unified geometric approach, a class of generalized trigonometric functions with two parameters are analytically extended to maximal domains on which they are univalent. Some consequences are deduced concerning radius of convergence…

In this paper we show how Einstein metrics are naturally described using the quantization of the algebra of functions on a Kahler manifold M. In this setup one interprets M as the phase space itself, equipped with the Poisson brackets…

For matrix analogues of embedded surfaces we define discrete curvatures and Euler characteristics, and a non-commutative Gauss--Bonnet theorem is shown to follow. We derive simple expressions for the discrete Gauss curvature in terms of…

We consider families of geometries of D--dimensional space, described by a finite number of parameters. Starting from the De Witt metric we extract a unique integration measure which turns out to be a geometric invariant, i.e. independent…

Using functional equations, we define functors that generalize standard examples from calculus of one variable. Examples of such functors are discussed and their Taylor towers are computed. We also show that these functors factor through…

In a recent paper Donaldson explains how to use an older construction of Joyce to obtain four dimensional local models for scalar-flat Kahler metrics with a 2-torus symmetry. Using this idea, he recovers and generalizes the Taub-NUT metric…

Given a measure $\nu$ on a regular planar domain $D$, the Gaussian multiplicative chaos measure of $\nu$ studied in this paper is the random measure ${\widetilde \nu}$ obtained as the limit of the exponential of the $\gamma$-parameter…

We prove a formula expressing a general n by n Toeplitz determinant as a Fredholm determinant of an operator 1-K acting on l_2({n,n+1,...}), where the kernel K admits an integral representation in terms of the symbol of the original…

We prove that for a typical Radon measure mu in R^d, every non-zero Radon measure is a tangent measure of mu at mu almost every point. This was already shown by T. O'Neil in his PhD thesis from 1994, but we provide a different…

In this paper we define the Reidemeister torsion as a rational function on the geometric components of the character variety of a one-cusped hyperbolic manifold M. We study its poles and zeros, and we deduce sufficient conditions on the…

There exists and is unique up to multiplication by a constant function a form of the highest dimension on the manifold of n-dimensional continued fractions in the sense of Klein, such that the form is invariant under the natural action of…

We show that for uniform domains $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose boundaries satisfy a certain nondegeneracy condition that harmonic measure cannot be mutually absolutely continuous with respect to $\alpha$-dimensional Hausdorff…
