A projective parameter of a geodesic on a Finsler space is defined to be solution of a certain ODE. Using projective parameter and Funk metric, one can construct a projectively invariant intrinsic pseudo-distance on a Finsler space. In the…
We give a new characterisation of the unparametrised geodesics, or distinguished curves, for affine, pseudo-Riemannian, conformal, and projective geometry. This is a type of moving incidence relation. The characterisation is used to provide…
We introduce the concept of spray-invariant sets on infinite-dimensional manifolds, where any geodesic of a spray starting in the set stays within it for its entire domain. These sets, possibly including singular spaces such as stratified…
In complex Finsler geometry, an open problem is: does there exist a weakly K\"ahler Finsler metric which is not K\"ahler? In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to this open problem. More precisely, we construct a family of the weakly…
Characterisations of metrizable topological spaces or metrizable uniform spaces are well known. A natural counterpart to being metrizable for topological spaces can be expressed in terms of probabilistic metrizability for approach spaces.…
For a large class of metric spaces with nice local structure, which includes Banach-Finsler manifolds and geodesic spaces of curvature bounded above, we give sufficient conditions for a local homeomorphism to be a covering projection. We…
This paper is concerned with the derivation of necessary conditions for the optimal shape of a design problem governed by a non-smooth PDE. The main particularity thereof is the lack of differentiability of the nonlinearity in the state…
Let $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ be a K\"ahler manifold obtained by blowing up a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ along a line $\mathbb{P}^1$. We prove that $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ does not admit constant…
We prove that the set of orthogonal projections on a Hilbert space equipped with the length metric is $\frac\pi2$-geodesic. As an application, we consider the problem of variation of spectral subspaces for bounded linear self-adjoint…
For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions. The…
Riemannian first-passage percolation (FPP) is a continuum model, with a distance function arising from a random Riemannian metric in $\R^d$. Our main result is a shape theorem for this model, which says that large balls under this metric…
Motivated by persistent homology and topological data analysis, we consider formal sums on a metric space with a distinguished subset. These formal sums, which we call persistence diagrams, have a canonical 1-parameter family of metrics…
In the present paper, we find the conditions to characterize projective change between two $(\alpha, \beta)$-metrics, F = $\alpha + \epsilon \beta + k\frac{\beta^2}{\alpha}$ ($\epsilon$ and k $\neq$ 0 are constants) and a Matsumoto metric…
We give to the categorical theory PR of Primitive Recursion a logically simple, algebraic presentation, via equations between maps, plus one genuine Horner type schema, namely Freyd's uniqueness of the initialised iterated. Free Variables…
We show that in dimension 2 every Finsler metric with at least 3-dimensional Lie algebra of projective vector fields is locally projectively equivalent to a Randers metric. We give a short list of such Finsler metrics which is complete up…
On metric spaces equipped with doubling measures, we prove that a differentiability theorem holds for Lipschitz functions if and only if the space supports nontrivial (metric) derivations in the sense of Weaver that satisfy an additional…
In this paper we are investigating variational homogeneous second order differential equations by considering the questions of how many different variational principles exist for a given spray. We focus our attention on h(2)-variationality;…
Standard projective measurements represent a subset of all possible measurements in quantum physics, defined by positive-operator-valued measures. We study what quantum measurements are projective simulable, that is, can be simulated by…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a curved $L_\infty$-algebra endowed with a complete filtration $\mathfrak{F}\mathfrak{g}$. Suppose there exists an integer $r \in \mathbb{N}_0$ for which the curvature $\mu_0$ satisfies $\mu_0 \in \mathfrak{F}_{2r+1}…
A conformal metric on a 4-ball induces on the boundary 3-sphere a conformal metric and a trace-free second fundamental form. Conversely, such a data on the 3-sphere is the boundary of a unique selfdual conformal metric, defined in a…
