Given a compact basic semi-algebraic set $K\subset R^n\times R^m$, a simple set $B$ (box or ellipsoid), and some semi-algebraic function $f$, we consider sets defined with quantifiers, of the form $R_f:=\{x\in B: \mbox{$f(x,y)\leq 0$ for…
Let $f:\mathbb{K}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{K}^m$ be a generically finite polynomial map of degree $d$ between affine spaces. In arXiv:1411.5011 we proved that if $\mathbb{K}$ is the field of complex or real numbers, then the set $S_f$ of points…
On a general Fano hypersurface in projective space, we determine for infinitely many $k$ the minimal degree $e$ of a rational curve through a general collection of $k$ points. In the case of a hypersurface of index 1, our results hold for…
Given a conformally variational scalar Riemannian invariant $I$, we identify a sufficient condition for a compact Riemannian manifold to admit finite regular coverings with many nonhomothetic conformal rescalings with $I$ constant. We also…
The main motivation of this paper arises from the study of Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces, where the class of 1-rectifiable sets does not contain smooth non-horizontal curves; therefore a new definition of rectifiable sets including…
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate and easily implemented approach to many-electron calculations, we will develop a new Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, we derive an approximation to electron density, the first term of…
Predictive simulations are crucial for the success of many subsurface applications, and it is highly desirable to obtain accurate non-negative solutions for transport equations in these numerical simulations. In this paper, we propose a…
This paper is concerned with the derivation of necessary conditions for the optimal shape of a design problem governed by a non-smooth PDE. The main particularity thereof is the lack of differentiability of the nonlinearity in the state…
Reversing the effects of a quantum evolution, for example as is done in error correction, is an important task for controlling quantum systems in order to produce reliable quantum devices. When the evolution is governed by a completely…
We initiate a formal study of reproducibility in optimization. We define a quantitative measure of reproducibility of optimization procedures in the face of noisy or error-prone operations such as inexact or stochastic gradient computations…
In this paper it is shown that if $\mu$ is an n-dimensional Ahlfors-David regular measure in $R^d$ which satisfies the so-called weak constant density condition, then $\mu$ is uniformly rectifiable. This had already been proved by David and…
This study considers the (soft) capacitated vertex cover problem in a dynamic setting. This problem generalizes the dynamic model of the vertex cover problem, which has been intensively studied in recent years. Given a dynamically changing…
This work aims to provide a comprehensive and unified numerical analysis for non linear system of parabolic variational inequalities (PVIs) subject to Dirichlet boundary condition. This analysis enables us to establish an existence of the…
The classical Dvoretzky covering problem asks for conditions on the sequence of lengths $\{\ell_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ so that the random intervals $I_n : = (\omega_n -(\ell_n/2), \omega_n +(\ell_n/2))$ where $\omega_n$ is a sequence of…
For a given family of smooth closed curves $\gamma^1,...,\gamma^\alpha\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ we consider the problem of finding an elastic \emph{connected} compact surface $M$ with boundary $\gamma=\gamma^1\cup...\cup\gamma^\alpha$. This is…
Many graph coloring proofs proceed by showing that a minimal counterexample to the theorem being proved cannot contain certain configurations, and then showing that each graph under consideration contains at least one such configuration;…
We give the following characterization of rectifiable metric spaces. A metric space with positive lower Hausdorff density is rectifiable if and only if, for any subset $F$ and $f:F\to Y$, a Lipschitz map into a metric space with positive…
The Reifenberg theorem \cite{reif_orig} tells us that if a set $S\subseteq B_2\subseteq \mathbb R^n$ is uniformly close on all points and scales to a $k$-dimensional subspace, then $S$ is H\"older homeomorphic to a $k$-dimensional Euclidean…
We construct several modular compactifications of the Hurwitz space $H^d_{g/h}$ of genus $g$ curves expressed as $d$-sheeted, simply branched covers of genus $h$ curves. These compactifications are obtained by allowing the branch points of…
Maxwell introduced a necessary minimum number of edges in terms of the number of vertices required for a graph to yield a Euclidean rigid generic framework in $\mathbb{R}^3$, this count was generalised to $\mathbb{R}^d$, for all $d\geq 1$.…
