We write down a one-dimensional integral formula and compute large-n asymptotics for the expectation of the absolute value of the smallest component of a unit vector in n-dimensional Euclidean space. The method is general, and allows to…
The transfer equation in spherical geometry with central symmetry, which is a partial differential equation in two variables r and m, is reduced to a one-dimensional transfer equation in r parametric in m. This is done by dropping the…
In this note, we give a generalization of the inversion formulas of Pestov-Uhlmann for the geodesic ray transform of functions and vector fields on simple 2-dimensional manifolds of constant curvature. The inversion formulas given here hold…
Recently, Hong, Mertens, Ono and Zhang proved a conjecture of C\u{a}ld\u{a}raru, He, and Huang that expresses the Taylor series of the modular $j$-function around the elliptic points $i$ and $\rho=e^{\pi i/3}$ as rational functions arising…
Any function from a round $n$-dimensional sphere of radius $r$ into $n$-dimensional Euclidean space must distort the metric additively by at least $\displaystyle \frac{\pi r}{1 + \sqrt{1 - \frac{2}{n+2}}}$ if $n$ is even and $\displaystyle…
This paper gives a detailed derivation of the surface of a tri-axial ellipsoid. The general result is in terms of the elliptic integrals of the first and second kind. It is in checked for all special cases included and the corresponding…
A transformation based on mean curvature is introduced which morphs triangulated surfaces into round spheres.
The concept of turnaround surface in an accelerating universe is generalized to arbitrarily large deviations from spherical symmetry, to close the gap between the idealized theoretical literature and the real world observed by astronomers.…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a generalization of Steiner symmetrization in Euclidean space for spherical space, which is the dual of the Steiner symmetrization in hyperbolic space introduced by J. Schneider (Manuscripta Math. 60:…
A compact expression for the DeWitt-Schwinger renormalization terms suitable for use in even-dimensional space-times is derived. This formula should be useful for calculations of $<\phi^2(x)>$ and $<T_{\mu\nu}(x)>$ in even dimensions.
We write down estimates for the surface area, and more generally, integral mean curvatures of an ellipsoid E in n-dimensional Euclidean space in terms of the lengths of the major semi-axes. We give applications to estimating the area of…
We give three formulas expressing the Smale invariant of an immersion f of a (4k-1)-sphere into (4k+1)-space. The terms of the formulas are geometric characteristics of any generic smooth map g of any oriented 4k-dimensional manifold, where…
Regularization methods improve the stability of ill-posed inverse problems by introducing some a priori characteristics for the solution such as smoothness or sharpness. In this contribution, we propose a multidimensional, scale-dependent…
Circle- and sphere-valued data play a significant role in inverse problems like magnetic resonance phase imaging and radar interferometry, in the analysis of directional information, and in color restoration tasks. In this paper, we aim to…
In this work, we construct the Born and inverse Born approximation and series to recover two function-valued coefficients in the Helmholtz equation for inverse scattering problems from the scattering data at two different frequencies. An…
We establish injectivity results for three different spherical means on an $H$-type group, $G$. First is the standard spherical means which is defined to be the average of a function over the spheres in the complement of the center, second…
In this note, we will consider two classical volume problems related to elliptic integrals. The first problem has a neat formula by means of elliptic integrals. We remade it with details. In the second problem, we found a messy formula. On…
In this paper, we combine separate works on (a) the transfer of infinitesimal rigidity results from an Euclidean space to the next higher dimension by coning, (b) the further transfer of these results to spherical space via associated…
For a distribution function $F$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a point $q\in \mathbb{R}^d$, the \emph{spherical depth} $\SphD(q;F)$ is defined to be the probability that a point $q$ is contained inside a random closed hyper-ball obtained from a pair…
