In this note, we provide explicit expressions for the projections onto the graph of a quadratic polynomial. The projections are obtained by examining the critical points of the associated quartic polynomial, that is, the roots of the cubic…

The topological Tverberg theorem states that any continuous map of a $(d+1)(r-1)$-simplex into the Euclidean $d$-space maps some points from $r$ pairwise disjoint faces of the simplex to the same point whenever $r$ is a prime power. We…

This paper introduces a new method of partitioning the solution space of a multi-objective optimisation problem for parallel processing, called Efficient Projection Partitioning. This method projects solutions down into a single dimension,…

We describe an algorithm that, given any full-rank matrix A having fewer rows than columns, can rapidly compute the orthogonal projection of any vector onto the null space of A, as well as the orthogonal projection onto the row space of A,…

In this work, we consider a class of convex optimization problems in a real Hilbert space that can be solved by performing a single projection, i.e., by projecting an infeasible point onto the feasible set. Our results improve those…

We propose a novel meshless method to compute harmonic maps and conformal maps for surfaces embedded in the Euclidean 3-space, using point cloud data only. Given a surface, or a point cloud approximation, we simply use the standard cubic…

In many robotics applications, it is necessary to compute not only the distance between the robot and the environment, but also its derivative - for example, when using control barrier functions. However, since the traditional Euclidean…

We investigate connections between the geometry of linear subspaces and the convergence of the alternating projection method for linear projections. The aim of this article is twofold: in the first part, we show that even in Euclidean…

We consider the problem of maximizing a convex function over a closed convex set in a real Hilbert space. For linear functions, we show that a single orthogonal projection suffices to obtain an approximate solution. For continuous convex…
