A new notion of typicality for arbitrary probability measures on standard Borel spaces is proposed, which encompasses the classical notions of weak and strong typicality as special cases. Useful lemmas about strong typical sets, including…

We study the globalization of partial actions on sets and topological spaces and of partial coactions on algebras by applying the general theory of globalization for geometric partial comodules, as previously developed by the authors. We…

The mathematical theory of gravitational lensing has revealed many generic and global properties. Beginning with multiple imaging, we review Morse-theoretic image counting formulas and lower bound results, and complex-algebraic upper bounds…

This paper develops a geometric reinterpretation of probability in which expectation arises from averaging in probability coordinates rather than in value space. By interpreting the cumulative distribution functions as coordinate maps, a…

The idea of convexity feeds generation, separation, calculus, and approximation. Generation appears as duality; separation, as optimality; calculus, as representation; and approximation, as stability. This is an overview of the origin,…

Tropicalizations form a bridge between algebraic and convex geometry. We generalize basic results from tropical geometry which are well-known for special ground fields to arbitrary non-archimedean valued fields. To achieve this, we develop…

We develop the calculus of superforms as a tool for convex geometry. The formalism is applied to valuations on convex bodies, the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities and Monge- Amp\`ere equations on the boundary of convex bodies.

Learning-to-optimize leverages machine learning to accelerate optimization algorithms. While empirical results show tremendous improvements compared to classical optimization algorithms, theoretical guarantees are mostly lacking, such that…

We revisit a classical theme of (general or translation invariant) valuations on convex polyhedra. Our setting generalizes the classical one, in a ``dual'' direction to previously considered generalizations: while previous research was…

Differentiable structure ensures that many of the basics of classical convex analysis extend naturally from Euclidean space to Riemannian manifolds. Without such structure, however, extensions are more challenging. Nonetheless, in…

In the paper we generalize the notion of problem (P) introduced by Poletsky. We introduce the notion of (P_m) extremals. For example, geodesics are (P_1) extremals. Using obtained results we present a description of (P_m) extremals in…

This work is dedicated to a new completely algebraic approach to Arakelov geometry, which doesn't require the variety under consideration to be generically smooth or projective. In order to construct such an approach we develop a theory of…

We generalize Kuznetsov's theory of homological projective duality to the setting of noncommutative algebraic geometry. Simultaneously, we develop the theory over general base schemes, and remove the usual smoothness, properness, and…

Alexandrov's Theorem states that every metric with the global topology and local geometry required of a convex polyhedron is in fact the intrinsic metric of a unique convex polyhedron. Recent work by Bobenko and Izmestiev describes a…
