We consider metrics which are preserved under a $p$-Wasserstein transport map, up to a possible contraction. In the case $p=1$ this corresponds to a metric which is uniformly curved in the sense of coarse Ricci curvature. We investigate the…

We establish the well-posedness of viscosity solutions for a class of semi-linear Hamilton-Jacobi equations set on the space of probability measures on the torus. In particular, we focus on equations with both common and idiosyncratic…

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…

This is the first of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several notions of metric Sobolev space and on their equivalence. More precisely, we give a systematic…

The problems of continuation of a partially defined metric and a partially defined ultrametric were considered in (O. Dovgoshey, O. Martio and M. Vuorinen, Metrization of weighted graphs, Ann. Comb., 17:455--476, 2013) and (A. A. Dovgoshey…

Let X be a smooth projective Berkovich space over a complete discrete valuation field K of residue characteristic zero, endowed with an ample line bundle L. We introduce a general notion of (possibly singular) semipositive (or…

It is proved that a parameterized curve in a metric space $X$ is absolutely continuous if and only if its composition with any Lipschitz function on $X$ is absolutely continuous.

Aim of this paper is to show that it makes sense to write the continuity equation on a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ and that absolutely continuous curves $\mu_t$ w.r.t. the distance $W_2$ can be completely characterized as solutions of…

The notion of the ultrametrics can be considered as a zero-dimensional analogue of ordinary metrics, and it is expected to prove ultrametric versions of theorems on metric spaces. In this paper, we provide ultrametric versions of the…

A special class of metrics, called universal metrics, solve all gravity theories defined by covariant field equations purely based on the metric tensor. Since we currently lack the knowledge of what the full of quantum-corrected field…

The superposition principle is the cornerstone of quantum mechanics, leading to a variety of genuinely quantum effects. Whether the principle applies also to macroscopic systems or, instead, there is a progressive breakdown when moving to…

This expository paper provides a unified and pedagogical introduction to optimal quantization for probability measures supported on spherical curves and discrete subsets of the sphere, emphasizing both continuous and discrete settings. We…

A complete recipe of measure-preserving diffusions in Euclidean space was recently derived unifying several MCMC algorithms into a single framework. In this paper, we develop a geometric theory that improves and generalises this…

In this paper we will argue that the superposition of waves can be calculated and taught in a simple way. We show, using the Gauss's method to sum an arithmetic sequence, how we can construct the superposition of waves - with different…

The standard arithmetic measures of center, the mean and median, have natural topological counterparts which have been widely used in continuum theory. In the context of metric spaces it is natural to consider the Lipschitz continuous…
