We are introducing two methods for revealing the true inflection point of data that contains or not error. The starting point is a set of geometrical properties that follow the existence of an inflection point p for a smooth function. These…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $f : \partial K \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$ a continuous, strictly positive function with $\int\limits_{\partial K} f(x) d \mu_{\partial K}(x) = 1$. We give an upper bound for the approximation…

We study the polytopes of affine maps between two polytopes -- the hom-polytopes. The hom-polytope functor has a left adjoint -- tensor product polytopes. The analogy with the category of vector spaces is limited, as we illustrate by a…

We study the mixed Christoffel problem for $C^{2,+}$ convex bodies providing sufficient conditions for its solution. Key to our approach is a constant rank theorem, following the approach developed in \cite{Guan-Ma-2003} to address the…

Based on Morse theory for the energy functional on path spaces we develop a deformation theory for mapping spaces of spheres into orthogonal groups. This is used to show that these mapping spaces are weakly homotopy equivalent, in a stable…

A strengthened canonical quantization scheme for the constrained motion on a curved hypersurface is proposed with introduction of the second category of fundamental commutation relations between Hamiltonian and positions/momenta, whereas…

Recently, Auffinger, Ben Arous, and \v{C}ern\'y initiated the study of critical points of the Hamiltonian in the spherical pure $p$-spin spin glass model, and established connections between those and several notions from the physics…

The intrinsically relativistic problem of a fermion subject to a pseudoscalar screened Coulomb plus a uniform background potential in two-dimensional space-time is mapped into a Sturm-Liouville. This mapping gives rise to an effective…

This paper studies projections of uniform random elements of (co)adjoint orbits of compact Lie groups. Such projections generalize several widely studied ensembles in random matrix theory, including the randomized Horn's problem, the…

The randomised Horn problem, in both its additive and multiplicative version, has recently drawn increasing interest. Especially, closed analytical results have been found for the rank-1 perturbation of sums of Hermitian matrices and…

Let $\Rx$ denote the ring of polynomials in $g$ freely non-commuting variables $x=(x_1,...,x_g)$. There is a natural involution * on $\Rx$ determined by $x_j^*=x_j$ and $(pq)^*=q^* p^*$ and a free polynomial $p\in\Rx$ is symmetric if it is…

We consider the analogues of the Horn inequalities in finite von Neumann algebras, which concern the possible spectral distributions of sums $a+b$ of self--adjoint elements $a$ and $b$ in a finite von Neumann algebra. It is an open question…

We analyze the question of which motivic homotopy types admit smooth schemes as representatives. We show that given a pointed smooth affine scheme $X$ and an embedding into affine space, the affine deformation space of the embedding gives a…

The inhomogeneous single-, two- and three-boson realizations of the more general polynomial angular momentum algebra SU_n(2) are obtained from the Fock representations of SU_n(2) that corresponds to the indecomposable representation on the…

We associate to a real projective variety $X$ two convex cones which are fundamental in real algebraic geometry: the cone $P_X$ of quadratic forms nonnegative on $X$, and the cone $\Sigma_X$ of sums of squares of linear forms. The dual cone…

We prove a concordance version of the 4-dimensional light bulb theorem for $\pi_1$-negligible compact orientable surfaces, where there is a framed but not necessarily embedded dual sphere. That is, we show that if $F_0$ and $F_1$ are such…

Let $f_i(P)$ denote the number of $i$-dimensional faces of a convex polytope $P$. Furthermore, let $S(n,d)$ and $C(n,d)$ denote, respectively, the stacked and the cyclic $d$-dimensional polytopes on $n$ vertices. Our main result is that for…

Let M be a compact manifold with a Hamiltonian T action and moment map Phi. The restriction map in equivariant cohomology from M to a level set Phi^{-1}(p) is a surjection, and we denote the kernel by I_p. When T has isolated fixed points,…

We prove the central limit theorem for the volume and the $f$-vector of the Poisson random polytope $\Pi_{\eta}$ in a fixed convex polytope $P\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. Here, $\Pi_{\eta}$ is the convex hull of the intersection of a Poisson…

For the unitary ensembles of $N\times N$ Hermitian matrices associated with a weight function $w$ there is a kernel, expressible in terms of the polynomials orthogonal with respect to the weight function, which plays an important role. For…
