We study stochastic density control between Gaussian-mixture endpoint distributions under Brownian prior dynamics. Since the direct Schr\"odinger bridge between Gaussian mixtures is generally not available in closed form, we introduce a…
Tubal scalars are usual vectors, and tubal matrices are matrices with every element being a tubal scalar. Such a matrix is often recognized as a third-order tensor. The product between tubal scalars, tubal vectors, and tubal matrices can be…
We construct a unitarily invariant Hermitian matrix ensemble whose fixed-time eigenvalue law coincides with the Karlin--McGregor law for non-intersecting Brownian bridges with arbitrary finite multiplicities at both endpoints. This provides…
In the first part of the article, a new interesting system of difference equations is introduced. It is developed for re-rating purposes in general insurance. A nonlinear transformation $\varphi $ of a d-dimensional $(d \ge 2)$ Euclidean…
We present a fixed point theorem on topological cylinders in normed linear spaces for maps satisfying a property of stretching a space along paths. This result is a generalization of a similar theorem obtained by D. Papini and F. Zanolin.…
We consider bounded 2-metric spaces satisfying an additional axiom, and show that a contractive mapping has either a fixed point or a fixed line.
The uniqueness of the Perron vector of a nonnegative block matrix associated to a multiplex network is discussed. The conclusions come from the relationships between the irreducibility of some nonnegative block matrix associated to a…
Two years ago, Conlon and Gowers, and Schacht proved general theorems that allow one to transfer a large class of extremal combinatorial results from the deterministic to the probabilistic setting. Even though the two papers solve the same…
In this paper we disprove the following conjectured generalization of the Contraction Mapping Theorem (due to J.D. Stein Jr.): Let X be a complete metric space and let F be a finite family of self-maps of X. Suppose there is a postive…
This paper is a survey of various proofs of the so called {\em fundamental theorem of Markov chains}: every ergodic Markov chain has a unique positive stationary distribution and the chain attains this distribution in the limit independent…
We provide the following result and its discrete equivalent: Let $f \colon I^n \to \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ be a continuous function. Then, there exist a point $p \in \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ and a compact subset $S \subset…
A quantum finite multi-barrier system, with a periodic potential, is considered and exact expressions for its plane wave amplitudes are obtained using the Transfer Matrix method [10]. This quantum model is then associated with a stochastic…
We introduce and study the permanence properties of the class of linear transfers between probability measures. This class contains all cost minimizing mass transports, but also martingale mass transports, the Schrodinger bridge associated…
In this article, we derive a common fixed point result for a pair of single valued and set-valued mappings on a metric space having graphical structure. In this case, the set-valued map is assumed to be closed valued instead of closed and…
For a positive linear map F and a normal matrix N, we show that |F(N)| is bounded by some simple linear combinations in the unitary orbit of F(|N|). Several elegant sharp inequalities are derived, especially for the Schur product.
Following Barany et al., who proved that large random lattice zonotopes converge to a deterministic shape in any dimension after rescaling, we establish a central limit theorem for finite-dimensional marginals of the boundary of the…
A perturbative quantum theory of the two Killing vector reduction of Einstein gravity is constructed. Although the reduced theory inherits from the full one the lack of standard perturbative renormalizability, we show that strict cutoff…
This note presents a new proof of an important result due to Bourgain and Tzafriri that provides a partial solution to the Kadison--Singer problem. The result shows that every unit-norm matrix whose entries are relatively small in…
In this work, using a new geometrical approach we study to the existence of the fixed-point of mappings that independence of the smoothness, and also of their single-values or multi-values. This work proved the theorems that generalize in…
This is a survey of the current state of the question "Which closed connected manifolds of dimension $n\ge 5$ admit Riemannian metrics whose scalar curvature function is everywhere positive?" The introduction gives a brief overview of these…
