This paper contains an $L^{p}$ improving result for convolution operators defined by singular measures associated to hypersurfaces on the motion group. This needs only mild geometric properties of the surfaces, and it extends earlier…

Motivated by the study of H\"ormander's sums-of-squares operators and their generalizations, we define the convolution algebra of transverse distributions associated to a singular foliation. We prove that this algebra is represented as…

In this work the equivariant signature of a manifold with proper action of a discrete group is defined as an invariant of equivariant bordisms. It is shown that the computation of this signature can be reduced to its computation on fixed…

This article announces joint work with Frank Connolly and Jim Davis. We generalize our classification of pseudo-free involutions on the n-torus, by studying the action of the associated infinite group with torsion in the universal cover.…

We study groups, exponential groups and ordered groups equipped with valuations. We investigate algebraic and topological features of such valued structures, and apply our findings in order to solve regular equations over groups using…

We present a novel surface convolution operator acting on vector fields that is based on a simple observation: instead of combining neighboring features with respect to a single coordinate parameterization defined at a given point, we have…

For certain quasi-split reductive groups $G$ over a general field $F$, we construct an automorphism $\iota_G$ of $G$ over $F$, well-defined as an element of ${\rm Aut}(G)(F)/jG(F)$ where $j:G(F) \rightarrow {\rm Aut}(G)(F)$ is the…

Convolution is an integral operation that defines how the shape of one function is modified by another function. This powerful concept forms the basis of hierarchical feature learning in deep neural networks. Although performing convolution…

Alesker's theory of generalized valuations unifies smooth measures and constructible functions on real analytic manifolds, extending classical operations on functions and measures. Alesker showed that these operations agree with the…

A classification of $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ and translation covariant Minkowski valuations on log-concave functions is established. The moment vector and the recently introduced level set body of log-concave functions are characterized.…

Image processing problems in general, and in particular in the field of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy, often require considering images up to their rotations and translations. Such problems were tackled successfully when…

The algebra of smooth translation-invariant valuations on convex bodies, introduced by S.Alesker in the early 2000s, was in part proved and in part conjectured to satisfy properties formally analogous to those of the cohomology ring of a…

Within the framework of quantum harmonic analysis, for a locally compact group $G$ with a square-integrable, irreducible unitary representation, we analyze the eigenvalue distributions of convolutions between indicator functions on $G$ and…

Every action of a finite group scheme $G$ on a variety admits a projective equivariant model, but not necessarily a normal one. As a remedy, we introduce and explore the notion of $G$-normalization. In particular, every curve equipped with…

To study operator algebras with symmetries in a wide sense we introduce a notion of {\em relative convolution operators} induced by a Lie algebra. Relative convolutions recover many important classes of operators, which have been already…

Let $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ be commuting involutions of a semisimple algebraic group $G$. This yields a $Z_2\times Z_2$-grading of $\g=\Lie(G)$, $\g=\bigoplus_{i,j=0,1}\g_{ij}$, and we study invariant-theoretic aspects of this…
