In derivative-free optimization, the cosine measure is a value that often arises in the convergence analysis of direct search methods. Given the increasing interest in high-dimensional derivative-free optimization problems, it is valuable…
This paper studies the uniqueness of solutions to the dual optimal transport problem, both qualitatively and quantitatively (bounds on the diameter of the set of optimisers). On the qualitative side, we prove that when one marginal…
Quantum communication, while promising unparalleled security, faces significant practical challenges due to imperfections in quantum devices, particularly in single-photon detectors (SPDs). One of the key issues is the impact of dark…

Let $\nu$ be a vector measure defined on a $\sigma$-algebra $\Sigma$ and taking values in a Banach space. We prove that if $\nu$ is homogeneous and $L_1(\nu)$ is non-separable, then there is a vector measure $\tilde{\nu}:\Sigma \to…

This paper deals with the reducibility property of semidirect products of the form $\bf V*\bf D$ relatively to graph equation systems, where $\bf D$ denotes the pseudovariety of definite semigroups. We show that, if the pseudovariety $\bf…

A metric measure space is said to be Carnot-rectifiable if it can be covered up to a null set by countably many biLipschitz images of compact sets of a fixed Carnot group. In this paper, we give several characterisations of such notion of…

If moments of singular measures are passed as inputs to the entropy maximization procedure, the optimization algorithm might not terminate. The framework developed in our previous paper demonstrated how input moments of measures, on a broad…
