Based on Smirnov's decomposition theorem we prove that every rectifiable $1$-current $T$ with finite mass $\mathbb{M}(T)$ and finite mass $\mathbb{M}(\partial T)$ of its boundary $\partial T$ can be approximated in mass by a sequence of…

In this note we prove an explicit formula for the lower semicontinuous envelope of some functionals defined on real polyhedral chains. More precisely, denoting by $H \colon \mathbb{R} \to \left[ 0,\infty \right)$ an even, subadditive, and…

We show that a $2k$-current $T$ on a complex manifold is a real holomorphic $k$-chain if and only if $T$ is locally real rectifiable, $d$-closed and has $\mathcal{H}^{2k}$-locally finite support. This result is applied to study homology…

A comprehensive study of one-dimensional metric currents and their relationship to the geometry of metric spaces is presented. We resolve the one-dimensional flat chain conjecture in this general setting, by proving that its validity is…

In the present paper, we prove that the convergence of rectifiable chains in flat norm implies the weak convergence of associated rectifiable varifolds if the limit flat chain is rectifiable and the mass converges also to the mass of limit…

We prove (without using Federer's structure theorem) that a finite-mass flat chain over any coefficient group is rectifiable if and only if almost all of its 0-dimensional slices are rectifiable. This implies that every flat chain of finite…

Let $H$ be a fixed graph. The $H$-Transversal problem, given a graph $G$, asks to remove the smallest number of vertices from $G$ so that $G$ does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. While a simple $|V(H)|$-approximation algorithm exists and is…

The persistent homology transform (PHT) of a subset $M \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is a map $\text{PHT}(M):\mathbb{S}^{d-1} \to \mathbf{Dgm}$ from the unit sphere to the space of persistence diagrams. This map assigns to each direction $v\in…

We study some fundamental properties of real rectifiable currents and give a generalization of King's theorem in characterizing currents defined by positive real holomorphic chains. Our proof uses Siu's semicontinuity theorem and largely…

We consider a class of Hermitian Hamiltonians with position-dependent mass $H=((m^alpha)p(m^beta)p(m^alpha))/2+\V$ with $2(alpha)+\beta=-1$. We apply these Hamiltonians to different piecewise flat potentials and masses (step, barrier, well…

We consider the convergence of a continuous-time Markov chain approximation X^h, h>0, to an R^d-valued Levy process X. The state space of X^h is an equidistant lattice and its Q-matrix is chosen to approximate the generator of X. In…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $\theta$ a smooth closed $(1,1)$-real form representing a big cohomology class $\alpha \in H^{1,1}(X,\R)$. The purpose of this note is to show, using pluripotential and viscosity techniques, that…

In this paper we start a detailed study of a new notion of rectifiability in Carnot groups: we say that a Radon measure is $\mathscr{P}_h$-rectifiable, for $h\in\mathbb N$, if it has positive $h$-lower density and finite $h$-upper density…

Let $P$ be a finite simplicial comple with underlying space (union of simplices in $P$) $|P|$. Let $Q$ be a subcomplex of $P$. Let $a \geq 0$. Then there exists $K < \infty$, \emph{depending only on $a$ and $Q$,} with the following…
