Circular and non-flat data distributions are prevalent across diverse domains of data science, yet their specific geometric structures often remain underutilized in machine learning frameworks. A principled approach to accounting for the…

Links between power law probability distributions and marginal distributions of uniform laws on $p$-spheres in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ show that a mathematical derivation of the Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution necessarily passes through power law…

A quantum system can be entirely described by the K\"ahler structure of the projective space P(H) associated to the Hilbert space H of possible states; this is the so-called geometrical formulation of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we…

Metrics on shape space are used to describe deformations that take one shape to another, and to determine a distance between them. We study a family of metrics on the space of curves, that includes several recently proposed metrics, for…

The distributional statistical framework replaces classical probability densities by distribution-kernel pairs $(T, \varphi)$, where $T$ is a tempered distribution and $\varphi$ is a rapidly decaying kernel. We develop the thesis that the…

We construct the differential geometry of smooth manifolds equipped with an algebraic curvature map acting as an area measure. Area metric geometry provides a spacetime structure suitable for the discussion of gauge theories and strings,…

We describe the natural geometry of Hilbert schemes of curves in ${\mathbb P}^3$ and, in some cases, in ${\mathbb P}^n$ , $n\geq 4$.

The Gumbel-Softmax probability distribution allows learning discrete tokens in generative learning, while the Gumbel-Argmax probability distribution is useful in learning discrete structures in discriminative learning. Despite the efforts…

Modern datasets across many disciplines increasingly consist of time-evolving, potentially infinite-dimensional random objects, such as dynamic functional data, which are naturally modeled in Hilbert spaces. In these settings,…

The introduction of a metric onto the space of parameters in models in Statistical Mechanics and beyond gives an alternative perspective on their phase structure. In such a geometrization, the scalar curvature, R, plays a central role. A…

In this paper, we study the geometric structure induced by the canonical reciprocal cost function and its natural $n$-dimensional extension. In logarithmic coordinates, the potential depends only on the linear combination $S=\alpha\cdot t$,…

The Freund family of distributions becomes a Riemannian 4-manifold with Fisher information as metric; we derive the induced $\alpha$-geometry, i.e., the $\alpha$-curvature, $\alpha$-Ricci curvature with its eigenvales and eigenvectors, the…

We investigate the degree sequences of geometric preferential attachment graphs in general compact metric spaces. We show that, under certain conditions on the attractiveness function, the behaviour of the degree sequence is similar to that…
