Let $\gamma$ be a Gaussian measure on a locally convex space and $H$ be the corresponding Cameron-Martin space. It has been recently shown by L. Ambrosio and A. Figalli that the linear first-order PDE $$ \dot{\rho} + \mbox{div}_{\gamma}…

In this paper, we revisit the notion of length measures associated to planar closed curves. These are a special case of area measures of hypersurfaces which were introduced early on in the field of convex geometry. The length measure of a…

We prove the following theorem. Let $\mu$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $\mu(K\cap H)\le \mu(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $\mu(K)\le…

In this note, we study possible extensions of the Central Limit Theorem for non-convex bodies. First, we prove a Berry-Esseen type theorem for a certain class of unconditional bodies that are not necessarily convex. Then, we consider a…

We introduce the coherent algebra of a compact metric measure space by analogy with the corresponding concept for a finite graph. As an application we show that upon topologizing the collection of isomorphism classes of compact metric…

On a convex bounded open set, we prove that Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from below in terms of the norm of the distance function in a suitable Lebesgue space. This generalizes a result…

In this paper, we study the issue of estimating a structured signal $x_0 \in \mathbb{R}^n$ from non-linear and noisy Gaussian observations. Supposing that $x_0$ is contained in a certain convex subset $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that…

To prove that a measure, linearly representable by means of a finite set of nonnegative matrices $\mathcal M$, has the weak-Gibbs property, one check the uniform convergence (on $\mathcal M^\mathbb N$) of the sequence of vectors…

We initiate a classification of uniform measures in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb H$ equipped with the Kor\'anyi metric $d_H$, that represents the first example of a noncommutative stratified group equipped with a homogeneous…

This paper, originally motivated by a question raised by Wood and Hanna [Soft Matter, 15, 2411 (2019)], shows that pure measures of bending for soft plates can be defined by introducing the class of bending-neutral deformations, finite…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on a separable Banach space $X$. A subset $U\subset X$ is $\mu$-continuous if $\mu(\partial U)=0$. In the paper the $\mu$-continuity and uniform $\mu$-continuity of convex bodies in $X$, especially of…

Motivated by the inverse moment problem for convex polytopes, we study the pushforward to a line of the Lebesgue measure restricted to a convex $d$-polytope. Such pushforwards are spline densities of degree $d-1$, and their moments lead…

We present a technique that allows to obtain certain results in the compressible fluid theory: in particular, it is a nonexistence result for the highly decreasing at infinity solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations, the construction of…

Karshon constructed the first counterexample to the log-concavity conjecture for the Duistermaat-Heckman measure: a Hamiltonian six manifold whose fixed points set is the disjoint union of two copies of $T^4$. In this article, for any…

We consider feasibility and constrained optimization problems defined over smooth and/or strongly convex sets. These notions mirror their popular function counterparts but are much less explored in the first-order optimization literature.…

We prove a tight subspace concentration inequality for the dual curvature measures of a symmetric convex body.

This paper presents new approaches to the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in L^1 spaces. While it is well-known that L^1 fails the fixed point property in general, we provide a complete and self-contained proof that…

In this paper we address the following question: given a measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, does there exists a constant $C>0$ such that, for any $m$-dimensional subspace $H \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and any convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$,…

We initiate a systematic investigation of group actions on compact medain algebras via the corresponding dynamics on their spaces of measures. We show that a probability measure which is invariant under a natural push forward operation must…

In the present work we shall show that nonlinear contractive conditions on TVS-cone metric spaces can be reduced to nonlinear contractive conditions on usual metric spaces. Our results extend the results of Du (2010) [W.S. Du, A note on…
