This paper is concerned by statistical inference problems from a data set whose elements may be modeled as random probability measures such as multiple histograms or point clouds. We propose to review recent contributions in statistics on…
As an effective theory, relativistic hydrodynamics is fixed by symmetries up to a set of transport coefficients. A lot of effort has been devoted to explicit calculations of these coefficients. Here we propose a shift in perspective: we…
Wasserstein distance (WD) and the associated optimal transport plan have been proven useful in many applications where probability measures are at stake. In this paper, we propose a new proxy of the squared WD, coined min-SWGG, that is…
In the paper we investigate submanifolds in a tangent bundle endowed with g-natural metric G, defined by a vector field on a base manifold. We give a sufficient condition for a vector field on M to defined totally geodesic submanifold in…
A 10-dimensional symplectic moduli space of torsion sheaves on the cubic 4-fold is constructed. It parametrizes the stable rank 2 vector bundles on the hypeplane sections of the cubic 4-fold which are obtained by Serre's construction from…
We obtain a gradient estimate for the Gauss maps from complete spacelike constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in Minkowski space into the hyperbolic space. As applications, we prove a Bernstein theorem which says that if the image of the…
In this paper, we introduce a variant of optimal transport adapted to the causal structure given by an underlying directed graph $G$. Different graph structures lead to different specifications of the optimal transport problem. For…
In this paper we extend a previous result of the author [Lis07] of characterization of absolutely continuous curves in Wasserstein spaces to a more general class of spaces: the spaces of probability measures endowed with the…
The purpose of the present work is to study the complete and horizontal lifts of the metallic structure on tangent bundles with respect to almost product structure. We also establish fundamental formulae related to integrability and…
We study the notion of algebraic tangent cones at singularities of reflexive sheaves. These correspond to extensions of reflexive sheaves across a negative divisor. We show the existence of optimal extensions in a constructive manner, and…
We study a robust topological transport carried by vortices in a thin film of an easy-plane ferromagnetic insulator between two metal contacts. A vortex, which is a nonlocal topological spin texture in two-dimensional magnets, exhibits some…
We analyze a variational time discretization of geodesic calculus on finite- and certain classes of infinite-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We investigate the fundamental properties of discrete geodesics, the associated discrete…
For given finite system of convex polygons in the plane which have no transversal, find such homothety transformations of polygons (having fixed centres inside given polygons) with minimal similarity ratio c>1 that the transformed system…
We show that if $(X,d)$ is a metric space which admits a consistent convex geodesic bicombing, then we can construct a conical bicombing on $CB(X)$, the hyperspace of nonempty, closed, bounded, and convex subsets of $X$ (with the Hausdorff…
In this paper a geometric characterization of the unique geodesics in Thompson's metric spaces is presented. This characterization is used to prove a variety of other geometric results. Firstly, it will be shown that there exists a unique…
We study the Wasserstein natural gradient in parametric statistical models with continuous sample spaces. Our approach is to pull back the $L^2$-Wasserstein metric tensor in the probability density space to a parameter space, equipping the…
This short note has been written as an Oberwolfach report for the workshop "Differentialgeometrie im Grossen". We discuss properties of metric spaces that at almost all points admit a tangent metric space. We explain why, under some mild…
The notion of frontals in Euclidean space is introduced and the normal and tangent maps to frontals are studied for both geometrical and dynamical aspects of frontals. Moreover we observe that parallels of the tangent map to a frontal curve…
This note proves a result on the existence of barycenters in a class of uniformly convex geodesic spaces.
We prove a transverse diameter theorem in the context of Lorentzian foliations, which can be interpreted as a Hawking--Penrose-type singularity theorem for timelike geodesics transverse to the foliation. In order to develop the necessary…
