We consider a point cloud $X_n := \{ x_1, \dots, x_n \}$ uniformly distributed on the flat torus $\mathbb{T}^d : = \mathbb{R}^d / \mathbb{Z}^d $, and construct a geometric graph on the cloud by connecting points that are within distance…

It is hereby established that, in Euclidean spaces of finite dimension, bounded self-contracted curves have finite length. This extends the main result of Daniilidis, Ley, and Sabourau (J. Math. Pures Appl. 2010) concerning continuous…

In this paper, we prove the continuity of the flow of KdV on spaces of probability measures with respect to a combination of Wasserstein distances on $H^s$, $s>0$ and $L^2$. We are motivated by the existence of an invariant measure…
