This paper deals with the computation of sectional curvature for the manifolds of $N$ landmarks (or feature points) in D dimensions, endowed with the Riemannian metric induced by the group action of diffeomorphisms. The inverse of the…

Many statistical models are algebraic in that they are defined by polynomial constraints or by parameterizations that are polynomial or rational maps. This opens the door for tools from computational algebraic geometry. These tools can be…

Here a new notion of fractional length of a smooth curve, which depends on a parameter $\sigma$, is introduced that is analogous to the fractional perimeter functional of sets that has been studied in recent years. It is shown that in an…

We present a novel approach to the concept of gluing in mathematics by introducing the notions of a gluing data category and a gluing data functor. Our work provides a formal categorical characterization of the notion of gluing in algebraic…

A special formula for the total mean curvature of an ovaloid is derived. This formula allows us to extend the notion of the mean curvature to the class of boundaries of strictly convex sets. Moreover, some integral formula for ovaloids is…

Coarse geometry is the study of large-scale properties of spaces. In this paper we study group coarse structures (i.e., coarse structures on groups that agree with the algebraic structures), by using group ideals. We introduce a large class…

The introduction of a metric onto the space of parameters in models in Statistical Mechanics and beyond gives an alternative perspective on their phase structure. In such a geometrization, the scalar curvature, R, plays a central role. A…

In this paper, we apply the machinery developed in arXiv:2401.06641(2) to study the behavior of computable categoricity relativized to non-c.e. degrees. In particular, we show that we can build a computable structure which is not computably…
