We use the Cayley transform to provide an explicit isomorphism at the level of cycles from van Daele $K$-theory to $KK$-theory for graded $C^*$-algebras with a real structure. Isomorphisms between $KK$-theory and complex or real $K$-theory…

The classical Cayley transform is a birational map between a quadratic matrix group and its Lie algebra, which was first discovered by Cayley in 1846. Because of its essential role in both pure and applied mathematics, the classical Cayley…

We discuss the notion of the orbifold transform, and illustrate it on simple examples. The basic properties of the transform are presented, including transitivity and the exponential formula for symmetric products. The connection with the…

We show that linearly constrained linear optimization over a Stiefel or Grassmann manifold is NP-hard in general. We show that the same is true for unconstrained quadratic optimization over a Stiefel manifold. We will show that unless…

In this paper I suggest an alternative approach (using generic flat bundles and higher Massey products) to a Lusternik-Schnirelman type theory for closed 1-forms (cf. also math.DG/9811113)

We give examples on the use of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem in inverse problems. We show uniqueness in the linearized Calder\'on problem on holomorphically separable K\"ahler manifolds, and in the Calder\'on problem for nonlinear equations…

In this paper we extend recent developments in computational optimal transport to the setting of Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we show how to learn optimal transport maps from samples that relate probability distributions defined on…

In this preprint the notion of deformation quantization of endomorphism bundles over symplectic manifolds is defined and developed, including index theory.

We show how the newly developed method of Periodic Unfolding on Riemannian manifolds can be applied to PDE problems: We consider the homogenization of an elliptic model problem. In the limit, we obtain a generalization of the well-known…

Retractions are the workhorse in Riemannian computing applications, where computational efficiency is of the essence. This work introduces a new retraction on the compact Stiefel manifold of orthogonal frames. The retraction is second-order…

We define Cayley structures as a field of Cayley's ruled cubic surfaces over a four dimensional manifold and motivate their study by showing their similarity to indefinite conformal structures and their link to differential equations. In…

The purpose of this article is to adapt the Frolicher-type inequality to the case of transversely holomorphic and transversely symplectic foliations. These inequalities can be used to e.g. determine whether a given foliation can be made…
