In this work we study constant-coefficient first order systems of partial differential equations and give necessary and sufficient conditions for those systems to have a well posed Cauchy Problem. In many physical applications, due to the…
In this paper, we prove the nonexistence of $L^2$ harmonic 1-forms on a complete super stable minimal submanifold $M$ in hyperbolic space under the assumption that the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1 (M)$ for the Laplace operator on $M$ is…
The Dantzig selector (Candes and Tao, 2007) is a popular l1-regularization method for variable selection and estimation in linear regression. We present a very weak geometric condition on the observed predictors which is related to…
We derive conditions under which random sequences of polarizations (two-point symmetrizations) converge almost surely to the symmetric decreasing rearrangement. The parameters for the polarizations are independent random variables whose…
Minimizers in the least gradient problem with discontinuous boundary data need not be unique. However, all of them have a similar structure of level sets. Here, we give a full characterization of the set of minimizers in terms of any one of…
The parameters of the supersymmetry Lagrangian are the place where experiment and theory will meet. We show that measuring them is harder than has been thought, particularly because of large unavoidable dependences on phases. Measurements…

Second-order sufficient conditions for local optimality have been playing an important role in local convergence analysis of optimization algorithms. In this paper, we demonstrate that this condition alone suffices to justify the linear…
We consider the well-posedness of a class of hyperbolic partial differential equations on a one dimensional spatial domain. This class includes in particular infinite-dimensional networks of transport, wave and beam equations, or even…
In this paper we prove the uniqueness and radial symmetry of minimizers for variational problems that model several phenomena. The uniqueness is a consequence of the convexity of the functional. The main technique is Fourier transform of…
We propose two geometric versions of the bounded reduction property and find conditions for them to coincide. In particular, for the natural automatic structure on a hyperbolic group, the two notions are equivalent. We study endomorphisms…
In this paper we study the global regularity for the solution to the Dirichlet problem of the equation of minimal graphs over a convex domain in hyperbolic spaces. We find that the global regularity depends only on the convexity of the…
