We show that every $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued Sobolev path with regularity $\alpha$ and integrability $p$ can be lifted to a Sobolev rough path provided $\alpha < 1/p<1/3$. The novelty of our approach is its use of ideas underlying Hairer's…

We introduce the space of rough paths with Sobolev regularity and the corresponding concept of controlled Sobolev paths. Based on these notions, we study rough path integration and rough differential equations. As main result, we prove that…

We prove a sharp global $W^{2,\,p}$ estimate for potentials of optimal transport maps that take a certain class of non-convex planar domains to convex ones.

We use simple sub-Riemannian techniques to prove that an arbitrary geometric p-rough path in the sense of Lyons (98) is the limit in sup-norm of a sequence of canonically lifted smooth paths, which are uniformly bounded in p-variation,…

We study weighted Sobolev inequalities on open convex cones endowed with $\alpha$-homogeneous weights satisfying a certain concavity condition. We establish a so-called reduction principle for these inequalities and characterize optimal…

Lyons' Rough Path theory is currently formulated in p-variation topology. We extend his main-result, the Universal Limit Theorem, to a stronger Hoelder topology. Several approximations to Brownian Rough Paths are studied. As application of…

By using optimal mass transport theory, we provide a direct proof to the sharp $L^p$-log-Sobolev inequality $(p\geq 1)$ involving a log-concave homogeneous weight on an open convex cone $E\subseteq \mathbb R^n$. The perk of this proof is…

A geometric p-rough path can be seen to be a genuine path of finite p-variation with values in a Lie group equipped with a natural distance. The group and its distance lift (R^{d},+,0) and its Euclidean distance. This approach allows us to…

We prove lifting theorems for complex representations $V$ of finite groups $G$. Let $\sigma=(\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_n)$ be a minimal system of homogeneous basic invariants and let $d$ be their maximal degree. We prove that any continuous map…

Based on a dyadic approximation of It\^o integrals, we show the existence of It\^o c\`adl\`ag rough paths above general semimartingales, suitable Gaussian processes and non-negative typical price paths. Furthermore, Lyons-Victoir extension…

How can one lift a functional defined on maps from a space X to a space Y into a functional defined on maps from X into P(Y) the space of probability distributions over Y? Looking at measure-valued maps can be interpreted as knowing a…

Functional lifting methods provide a tool for approximating solutions of difficult non-convex problems by embedding them into a larger space. In this work, we investigate a mathematically rigorous formulation based on embedding into the…

We introduce the class of "smooth rough paths" and study their main properties. Working in a smooth setting allows us to discard sewing arguments and focus on algebraic and geometric aspects. Specifically, a Maurer-Cartan perspective is the…

We establish the higher differentiability of solutions to a class of obstacle problems for integral functionals where the convex integrand f satisfies p-growth conditions with respect to the gradient variable. We derive that the higher…

This paper constructs unique compactly supported functions in Sobolev spaces that have minimal norm, maximal support, and maximal central value, under certain renormalizations. They may serve as optimized basis functions in interpolation or…

We consider rough paths with jumps. In particular, the analogue of Lyons' extension theorem and rough integration are established in a jump setting, offering a pathwise view on stochastic integration against cadlag processes. A class of…

We prove that almost every level set of a Sobolev function in a planar domain consists of points, Jordan curves, or homeomorphic copies of an interval. For monotone Sobolev functions in the plane we have the stronger conclusion that almost…

There are at least two directions concerning the extension of classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality: (1) Extending the sharp inequality on general manifolds; (2) Extending it for the negative exponent $\lambda=n-\alpha$ (that…

We prove an extension to the classical continuity theorem in rough paths. We show that two $p$-rough paths are close in all levels of iterated integrals provided the first $\lfl p \rfl$ terms are close in a uniform sense. Applications…

We give a sharp characterization of how additional integrability in the interior improves the integrability of boundary traces of $\mathrm{W}^{1,p}$-Sobolev functions. The optimality of our results relies on a novel nonlinear extension or…
