A family of plane oriented continuous paths depending on a fixed real positive number $R$ is considered. For any point $x$ on the path, the previous points lie out of any circle of radius $R$ having at $x$ interior normal in a suitable…

We prove that any self-contracted curve in R 2 endowed with a C 2 and strictly convex norm, has finite length. The proof follows from the study of the curve bisector of two points in R 2 for a general norm together with an adaptation of the…

We use Taylor's formula with Lagrange remainder to prove that functions with bounded second derivative are rectifiable in the case when polygonal paths are defined by interval subdivisions which are equally spaced. We discuss potential…

The aim of this paper is to associate a measure for certain sets of paths in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ with fixed starting and ending points. Then, working on parameterized surfaces with a specific Riemannian metric, we define and…

We prove almost tight bounds on the length of paths in $2$-edge-connected cubic graphs. Concretely, we show that (i) every $2$-edge-connected cubic graph of size $n$ has a path of length $\Omega\left(\frac{\log^2{n}}{\log{\log{n}}}\right)$,…

Finding paths in graphs is a fundamental graph-theoretic task. In this work, we we are concerned with finding a path with some constraints on its length and the number of vertices neighboring the path, that is, being outside of and incident…

For sufficiently tame paths in $\mathbb{R}^n$, Euclidean length provides a canonical parametrization of a path by length. In this paper we provide such a parametrization for all continuous paths. This parametrization is based on an…

We develop two methods to reconstruct a path of bounded variation from its signature. The first method gives a simple and explicit expression of any axis path in terms of its signature, but it does not apply directlty to more general ones.…

We present several constructions of paths and processes with finite quadratic variation along a refining sequence of partitions, extending previous constructions to the non-uniform case. We study in particular the dependence of quadratic…

We consider a family of variational regularization functionals for a generic inverse problem, where the data fidelity and regularization term are given by powers of a Hilbert norm and an absolutely one-homogeneous functional, respectively,…

We prove that, when a path of length n is embedded in R^2, the 3-distortion is an Omega(n^{1/2}), and that, when embedded in R^d, the 3-distortion is an O(n^{1/d-1}).

Directional replicability addresses the question of whether an effect studied across $n$ independent studies is present with the same direction in at least $r$ of them, for $r \geq 2$. When the expected direction of the effect is not…

A simple proof is given of the known fact that an m-times continuously differentiable function on the real line can be approximated along with its derivatives by an entire function and its respective derivatives.

The paper is split in two parts: in the first part, we construct the exact likelihood for a discretely observed rough differential equation, driven by a piecewise linear path. In the second part, we use this likelihood in order to construct…

A reparametrization (of a continuous path) is given by a surjective weakly increasing self-map of the unit interval. We show that the monoid of reparametrizations (with respect to compositions) can be understood via ``stop-maps'' that allow…

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…

We show that there is a point on a computable arc that does not belong to any computable rectifiable curve. We also show that there is a point on a computable rectifiable curve with computable length that does not belong to any computable…

The signature of a rectifiable path is a tensor series in the tensor algebra whose coefficients are definite iterated integrals of the path. The signature characterises the path up to a generalised form of reparametrisation. It is a…

We show that if a graph $G$ admits a quasi-isometry $\phi$ to a graph $H$ of bounded path-width, then we can assign a non-negative integer length to each edge of $H$, such that the same function $\phi$ is a quasi-isometry to this weighted…

We give bijective results between several variants of lattice paths of length $2n$ (or $2n-2$) and integer compositions of n, all enumerated by the seemingly innocuous formula $4^{n-1}$. These associations lead us to make new connections…
