The Gromov--Wasserstein problem is a non-convex optimization problem over the polytope of transportation plans between two probability measures supported on two spaces, each equipped with a cost function evaluating similarities between…
We generalize earlier results of Peller, Aleksandrov - Peller, Aleksandrov - Peller - Potapov - Sukochev to the case of functions of $n$-tuples of commuting self-adjoint operators. In particular, we prove that if a function $f$ belongs to…
In this article, we study a form of free transport for the interpolated free group factors, extending the work of Guionnet and Shlyakhtenko for the usual free group factors. Our model for the interpolated free group factors comes from a…
Given a function $f: (a,b) \rightarrow \mathbb{R},$ L\"owner's theorem states $f$ is monotone when extended to self-adjoint matrices via the functional calculus, if and only if $f$ extends to a self-map of the complex upper half plane. In…
In this paper we establish a multivariable non-commutative generalization of L\"owner's classical theorem from 1934 characterizing operator monotone functions as real functions admitting analytic continuation mapping the upper complex…
Let a countable amenable group G acts freely and ergodically on a Lebesgue space (X,mu), preserving the measure mu. If T is an automorphism of the equivalence relation defined by G then T can be extended to an automorphism alpha_T of the…
We construct an infinite set of conserved tensor currents of rank $2n$, $n=1,2,\dots$, in the two-dimensional theory of free massive fermions, which are bilinear in the fermionic fields. The one-point functions of these currents on the…
We rephrase Monge's optimal transportation (OT) problem with quadratic cost--via a Monge-Amp\`ere equation--as an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, which is in fact a convex problem when the target is a log-concave measure with…
We prove that $c$-cyclically monotone transport plans $\pi$ optimize the Monge-Kantorovich transportation problem under an additional measurability condition. This measurability condition is always satisfied for finitely valued, lower…
Consider a_1,a_2,...,a_n, arbitrary elements of R. We characterize those real functions f that decompose into the sum of a_j-periodic functions, i.e., f=f_1+...+f_n with D_{a_j}f(x):=f(x+a_j)-f(x)=0. We show that f has such a decomposition…
We prove a nonsmooth implicit function theorem applicable to the zero set of the difference of convex functions. This theorem is explicit and global: it gives a formula representing this zero set as a difference of convex functions which…
In this paper we consider the Benamou-Brenier formulation of optimal transport for nonlinear control affine systems on $\Rd$, removing the compactness assumption of the underlying manifold in previous work by the author. By using Bernard's…
We show that noncommutative gauge theories with arbitrary compact gauge group defined by means of the Seiberg-Witten map have the same one-loop anomalies as their commutative counterparts. This is done in two steps. By explicitly…
We present an alternative approach to the theory of free Gibbs states with convex potentials. Instead of solving SDE's, we combine PDE techniques with a notion of asymptotic approximability by trace polynomials for a sequence of functions…
Consider two bounded domains $\Omega$ and $\Lambda$ in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$, and two sufficiently regular probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ supported on them. By Brenier's theorem, there exists a unique transportation map $T$ satisfying…
Random matrices like GUE, GOE and GSE have been studied for decades and have been shown that they possess a lot of nice properties. In 2005, a new property of independent GUE random matrices is discovered by Haagerup and Thorbj{\o}rnsen in…
We study cyclically monotone transport plans between measures in $\mathrm{M}_0(\mathbb{R}^d)$, the class of Borel measures on $\mathbb{R}^d \setminus \{0\}$ that are finite on sets bounded away from the origin but may have infinite total…
Let $\M$ be a type ${\rm II_1}$ factor and let $\tau$ be the faithful normal tracial state on $\M$. In this paper, we prove that given finite elements $X_1,\cdots X_n \in \M$, there is a finite decomposition of the identity into $N \in…
Noncommutative functions are graded functions between sets of square matrices of all sizes over two vector spaces that respect direct sums and similarities. They possess very strong regularity properties (reminiscent of the regularity…
We introduce and analyze a statistical estimator for Monge transport maps: solutions to the quadratic optimal transport problem in Euclidean space. For absolutely continuous source measures, this map is uniquely defined as the gradient of a…
