Let R+ = (0,infinity) and let M be the family of all mean values of two numbers in R+ (some examples are the arithmetic, geometric, and harmonic means). Given m1, m2 in M, we say that a function f : R+ to R+ is (m1,m2)-convex if f(m1(x,y))…
A rather natural construction for a smooth random surface in space is the level surface of value zero, or 'nodal' surface f(x,y,z)=0, of a (real) random function f; the interface between positive and negative regions of the function. A…
In this work, standard methods of the mixed thin-shell foramlism are refined using the framework of Colombeau's theory of generalized functions. To this end, systematic use is made of smooth generalized functions, in particular…
In Minkowski geometry the metric features are based on a compact convex body containing the origin in its interior. This body works as a unit ball with its boundary formed by the unit vectors. Using one-homogeneous extension we have a…
In geometry, Monge's theorem states that for any three nonoverlapping circles of distinct radii in the two dimensional analytical plane equipped with the Euclidean metric, none of which is completely inside one of the others, the…
As in the case of the other gauge field theories, there is so called ``gauge'' also in general relativity. This ``gauge'' is unphysical degree of freedom. There are two kinds of ``gauges'' in general relativity. These are called the first-…
This paper presents a study of generalized polyhedral convexity under basic operations on multifunctions. We address the preservation of generalized polyhedral convexity under sums and compositions of multifunctions, the domains and ranges…
Generalized Functions play a central role in the understanding of differential equations containing singularities and nonlinearities. Introducing infinitesimals and infinities to deal with these obstructions leads to controversies…
In a traditional gauge theory, the matter fields \phi^a and the gauge fields A^c_\mu are fundamental objects of the theory. The traditional gauge field is similar to the connection coefficient in the Riemannian geometry covariant…
The aim of this review is to present an overview over available models and approaches to non-commutative gauge theory. Our main focus thereby is on gauge models formulated on flat Groenewold-Moyal spaces and renormalizability, but we will…
The present paper mainly presents, for example, explicit classifications of compact smooth manifolds having non-empty boundaries and simple structures where the dimensions are general. Studies of this type is fundamental and important. They…
The analysis of curves has been routinely dealt with using tools from functional data analysis. However its extension to multi-dimensional curves poses a new challenge due to its inherent geometric features that are difficult to capture…
We study random perturbations of Riemannian manifolds $(\mathsf{M},\mathsf{g})$ by means of so-called Fractional Gaussian Fields, which are defined intrinsically by the given manifold. The fields $h^\bullet: \omega\mapsto h^\omega$ will act…
This work presents a collection of useful properties of the Moreau envelope for finite-dimensional, proper, lower semicontinuous, convex functions. In particular, gauge functions and piecewise cubic functions are investigated and their…
The surgery technique of Gromov and Lawson may be used to construct families of positive scalar curvature metrics which are parameterised by Morse functions. This has played an important role in the study of the space of metrics of positive…
Although Regge finite element functions are not continuous, useful generalizations of nonlinear derivatives like the curvature, can be defined using them. This paper is devoted to studying the convergence of the finite element lifting of a…
In this paper, we propose a generalization of the Riemann curvature tensor on manifolds (of dimension two or higher) endowed with a Regge metric. Specifically, while all components of the metric tensor are assumed to be smooth within…

We consider a generalised complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation on a compact K\"ahler manifold and treat it using the method of continuity. For complex surfaces, we prove an easy existence result. We also prove that (for three-folds and a related…
We present a generalisation of surface photometry to the higher-order moments of the line-of-sight velocity distribution of galaxies observed with integral-field spectrographs. The generalisation follows the approach of surface photometry…
