We recall the notion of (vertical) translating solitons in a product of a semi-Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and the real line. Mainly, we restrict our attention to those which are the graph of a smooth function. When dealing with…
It is shown that Paley-Wiener functions on Riemannian manifolds of bounded geometry can be reconstructed in a stable way from some countable sets of their inner products with certain distributions of compact support. A reconstruction method…
This is the first in a series of papers where we will derive invariants of three-manifolds and framed knots in them from the geometry of a manifold pseudotriangulation put in some way in a four-dimensional Euclidean space. Thus, the…
The spherical Radon transform on the unit sphere can be regarded as a member of the analytic family of suitably normalized generalized cosine transforms. We derive new formulas for these transforms and apply them to study classes of…
The act of measuring a physical signal or field suggests a generalization of the wavelet transform that turns out to be a windowed version of the Radon transform. A reconstruction formula is derived which inverts this transform. A special…
The transform considered in the paper averages a function supported in a ball in $\RR^n$ over all spheres centered at the boundary of the ball. This Radon type transform arises in several contemporary applications, e.g. in thermoacoustic…
We propose iterative inversion algorithms for weighted Radon transforms $R_W$ along hyperplanes in $R^3$. More precisely, expandingthe weight $W = W (x, \theta), x \in R^3 , \theta \in S^2$ , into the series of spherical harmonics in…
The gauge symmetry of classical general relativity under space-time diffeomorphisms implies that any path integral quantization which can be interpreted as a sum over space-time geometries, gives rise to a formal invariant of smooth…
We give a construction of a Poisson transform mapping density valued differential forms on generalized flag manifolds to differential forms on the corresponding Riemannian symmetric spaces, which can be described entirely in terms of finite…
We present a numerical implementation of the geodesic ray transform and its inversion over functions and solenoidal vector fields on two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. For each problem, inversion formulas previously derived in…
Topological transforms have been very useful in statistical analysis of shapes or surfaces without restrictions that the shapes are diffeomorphic and requiring the estimation of correspondence maps. In this paper we introduce two…
Topological integral transforms have found many applications in shape analysis, from prediction of clinical outcomes in brain cancer to analysis of barley seeds. Using Euler characteristic as a measure, these objects record rich geometric…
In this article we study the spherical mean Radon transform in $\mathbf R^3$ with detectors centered on a plane. We use the consistency method suggested by the author of this article for the inversion of the transform in 3D. A new iterative…
For a manifold M we define a structure on the group action of Diff(M) on the smooth functions on M which reduces to the usual differential geometry upon differentiation at zero along the one-parameter groups of Diff(M). This ``integrated…
Modern machine learning increasingly leverages the insight that high-dimensional data often lie near low-dimensional, non-linear manifolds, an idea known as the manifold hypothesis. By explicitly modeling the geometric structure of data…
We introduce a novel class of rotation invariants of two dimensional curves based on iterated integrals. The invariants we present are in some sense complete and we describe an algorithm to calculate them, giving explicit computations up to…
We consider the weighted Radon transforms $R_W$ along hyperplanes in $R^d, \, d \geq 3$, with strictly positive weights $W = W (x, \theta), \, x \in R^d, \, \theta \in S^{d-1}$. We construct an example of such a transform with non-trivial…
The aim of this paper is to present inversion methods for the classical Radon transform which is defined on a family of $k$ dimensional planes in $\Bbb R^{n}$ where $1\leq k\leq n - 2$. For these values of $k$ the dimension of the set…
We consider natural algebraic differential operations acting on geometric quantities over smooth manifolds. We introduce a method of study and classification of such operations, called IT-reduction. It reduces the study of natural…
We suggest an algorithm allowing to obtain some new integral-geometric formulae from the existing formulae of Crofton type. These new formulae are applied to get smooth versions of BKK theorem. The algorithm is based on the calculations in…
