In this article we continue the study of properties of squeezing functions and geometry of bounded domains. The limit of squeezing functions of a sequence of bounded domains is studied. We give comparisons of intrinsic positive forms and…

We derive a precise link between series expansions of Gaussian random vectors in a Banach space and Parseval frames in their reproducing kernel Hilbert space. The results are applied to pathwise continuous Gaussian processes and a new…

In this paper we develop an intrinsic formalism to study the topology, smooth structure, and Riemannian geometry of the Wasserstein space of a closed Riemannian manifold. Our formalism allows for a new characterisation of the Weak topology…

Let $\{X_i\}$ be a sequence of compact $n$-dimensional Alexandrov spaces (e.g. Riemannian manifolds) with curvature uniformly bounded below which converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a compact Alexandrov space $X$. In an earlier paper…

We show that a considerable part of the theory of (ultra)distributions and hyperfunctions can be extended to more singular generalized functions, starting from an angular localizability notion introduced previously. Such an extension is…

We derive bounds for the Orlicz norm of the deviation of a random variable defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ from its Gaussian mean value. The random variables are assumed to be smooth and the bound itself depends on the Orlicz norm of the…

The Minkowski tensors are valuations on the space of convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with values in a space of symmetric tensors, having additional covariance and continuity properties. They are extensions of the intrinsic volumes, and as…

A mathematical smooth function means that the function has continuous derivatives to a certain degree C(k). We call it a k-smooth function or a smooth function if k can grow infinitively. Based on quantum physics, there is no such smooth…

In this short note, we prove that all geodesically convex functions defined on a Riemannian manifold are continuous in the interior of their domain. This is a folklore result, but to the best of our knowledge, there is only one available…

In asymptotically Minkowski space-times, one finds a surprisingly rich interplay between geometry and physics in both the classical and quantum regimes. On the mathematical side it involves null geometry, infinite dimensional groups,…

We say that a random vector $X=(X_1,...,X_n)$ in $R^n$ is an $n$-dimensional version of a random variable $Y$ if for any $a\in R^n$ the random variables $\sum a_iX_i$ and $\gamma(a) Y$ are identically distributed, where $\gamma:R^n\to…
