The declustering problem is to allocate given data on parallel working storage devices in such a manner that typical requests find their data evenly distributed on the devices. Using deep results from discrepancy theory, we improve previous…
We study an optimal M-partition problem for the Yamabe equation on the round sphere, in the presence of some particular symmetries. We show that there is a correspondence between solutions to this problem and least-energy sign-changing…
We establish the existence and the pointwise bound of the fundamental solution for the stationary Stokes system with measurable coefficients in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 3$, under the assumption that weak solutions of the…
The minimal spherical cap dispersion ${\rm disp}_{\mathcal{C}}(n,d)$ is the largest number $\varepsilon\in (0,1]$ such that, for every $n$ points on the $d$-dimensional Euclidean unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$, there exists a spherical cap with…
For an $n$-variate order-$d$ tensor $A$, define $ A_{\max} := \sup_{\| x \|_2 = 1} \langle A , x^{\otimes d} \rangle$ to be the maximum value taken by the tensor on the unit sphere. It is known that for a random tensor with i.i.d $\pm 1$…
We present a theorem of Sard type for semi-algebraic set-valued mappings whose graphs have dimension no larger than that of their range space: the inverse of such a mapping admits a single-valued analytic localization around any pair in the…
We generalize the classic definition of Delaunay triangulation and prove that for a locally finite and coarsely dense generic point set, $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the $d$-simplices whose vertices belong to $A$ and whose circumscribed…
In this paper, we investigate the consensus models on the sphere with control signals, where both the first and second order systems are considered. We provide the existence of the optimal control-trajectory pair and derive the first order…
Given any finite or countable collection of real numbers $T_j,j\in J$, we find all solutions $F$ to the stochastic fixed point equation \[W\stackrel{\mathrm {d}}{=}\inf_{j\in J}T_jW_j,\] where $W$ and the $W_j,j\in J$, are independent…
The problem of interpolation at $(n+1)^2$ points on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ by spherical polynomials of degree at most $n$ is proved to have a unique solution for several sets of points. The points are located on a number of circles…
We present a unified treatment of the abstract problem of finding the best approximation between a cone and spheres in the image of affine transformations. Prominent instances of this problem are phase retrieval and source localization. The…
In this paper we prove an analogue in the discrete setting of \Bbb Z^d, of the spherical maximal theorem for \Bbb R^d. The methods used are two-fold: the application of certain "sampling" techniques, and ideas arising in the study of the…
We study the counting function of rational approximations with given bounds on the denominator and satisfying the critical Dirichlet exponent on the sphere $S^d$, $d\geq 3$. We give an effective estimate for this counting function, with an…
In this paper, we propose a stochastic scheduling strategy for estimating the states of N discrete-time linear time invariant (DTLTI) dynamic systems, where only one system can be observed by the sensor at each time instant due to practical…
Let $D_n$ be the dihedral group with $2n$ elements, and suppose $n$ is greater than one. We call ring system a finite $D_n$-symmetric set of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Ring systems have been used as models for planets surrounded by rings,…
We consider the following variant of the Monge-Kantorovich transportation problem. Let S be a finite set of point sites in d dimensions. A bounded set C in d-dimensional space is to be distributed among the sites p in S such that (i) each p…
We describe a randomized algorithm that, given a set $P$ of points in the plane, computes the best location to insert a new point $p$, such that the Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup\{p\}$ has the largest possible minimum angle. The expected…
A notion of weighted multivariate majorization is defined as a preorder on sequences of vectors in Euclidean space induced by the Choquet ordering for atomic probability measures. We characterize this preorder both in terms of stochastic…
Two averaging algorithms are considered which are intended for choosing an optimal plane and an optimal circle approximating a group of points in three-dimensional Euclidean space.
We introduce a convergent finite difference method for solving the optimal transportation problem on the sphere. The method applies to both the traditional squared geodesic cost (arising in mesh generation) and a logarithmic cost (arising…
