The Minkowski problem for a class of unbounded closed convex sets is considered. This is equivalent to a Monge-Amp\`ere equation on a bounded convex open domain with possibly non-integrable given data. A complete solution (necessary and…

Dub\'e introduced cone decompositions and their Macaulay constants and used them to obtain an upper bound on the degrees of the generators in a Gr\"obner basis of an ideal. Liang extended the theory to submodules of a free module. In this…

We extend the theory of logarithmic Voronoi cells to Gaussian statistical models. In general, a logarithmic Voronoi cell at a point on a Gaussian model is a convex set contained in its log-normal spectrahedron. We show that for models of ML…
