Results by van der Vaart (1991) from semi-parametric statistics about the existence of a non-zero Fisher information are reviewed in an infinite-dimensional non-linear Gaussian regression setting. Information-theoretically optimal inference…

Nonlinear analysis has played a prominent role in the recent developments in geometry and topology. The study of the Yang-Mills equation and its cousins gave rise to the Donaldson invariants and more recently, the Seiberg-Witten invariants.…

We review the construction of a quantum version of the exponential statistical manifold over the set of all faithful normal positive functionals on a von Neumann algebra. The construction is based on the relative entropy approach to state…

Nowozin \textit{et al} showed last year how to extend the GAN \textit{principle} to all $f$-divergences. The approach is elegant but falls short of a full description of the supervised game, and says little about the key player, the…

We study the interplay between geometry and partial differential equations. We show how the fundamental ideas we use require the ability to correctly calculate the dimensions of spaces associated to the varieties of zeros of the symbols of…

In [2] we characterized in terms of a quadratic growth condition various metric regularity properties of the subdifferential of a lower semicontinuous convex function acting in a Hilbert space. Motivated by some recent results in [16] where…

Information geometry is a study of statistical manifolds, that is, spaces of probability distributions from a geometric perspective. Its classical information-theoretic applications relate to statistical concepts such as Fisher information,…

Upon a consistent topological statistical theory the application of structural statistics requires a quantification of the proximity structure of model spaces. An important tool to study these structures are Pseudo-Riemannian metrices,…

Miculescu and Mihail in 2008 introduced the concept of a \emph{generalized iterated function system} (GIFS in~short), a particular extension of the classical IFS. The idea is that, instead of families of selfmaps of a metric space~$X$,…
