In this work, we approach the minimization of a continuously differentiable convex function under linear equality constraints by a second-order dynamical system with asymptotically vanishing damping term. The system is formulated in terms…

Let $(X,d,f)$ be a topological dynamical system, where $(X,d)$ is a compact metric space and $f:X\to X$ is a continuous map. We define $n$-ordered empirical measure of $x\in X$ by \begin{align*}…

We define and study $C^1-$solutions of the Aronsson equation (AE), a second order quasi linear equation. We show that such super/subsolutions make the Hamiltonian monotone on the trajectories of the closed loop Hamiltonian dynamics. We give…

In this article we introduce a definition of topological minimal sets, which is a generalization of that of Mumford-Shah-minimal sets. We prove some general properties as well as two existence theorems for topological minimal sets. As an…

The problem of minimizing convex functionals of probability distributions is solved under the assumption that the density of every distribution is bounded from above and below. A system of sufficient and necessary first-order optimality…

Score-based methods are powerful across machine learning, but they face a paradox: theoretically path-independent, yet practically path-dependent. We resolve this by proving that practical training objectives differ from the ideal,…

The aim of this paper is to show that the Lagrange-d'Alembert and its equivalent the Gauss and Appel principle are not the only way to deduce the equations of motion of the nonholonomic systems. Instead of them, here we consider the…

Minimal representations of a real reductive group G are the "smallest" irreducible unitary representations of G. The author suggests a program of global analysis built on minimal representations from the philosophy: small representation of…

This work introduces and rigorously analyzes a novel operator-splitting finite element scheme for approximating viscosity solutions of a broad class of constrained second-order partial differential equations. By decoupling the primary PDE…

This paper addresses a large class of vector optimization problems in infinite-dimensional spaces with respect to two important binary relations derived from domination structures. Motivated by theoretical challenges as well as by…

We show that an earlier conjecture of the author, on diophantine approximation of rational points on varieties, implies the ``abc conjecture'' of Masser and Oesterl'e. In fact, a weak form of the former conjecture is sufficient, involving…

We propose global surjectivity theorems of differentiable maps based on second order conditions. Using the homotopy continuation method, we demonstrate that, for a $C^2$ differentiable map from a Hilbert space to a finite-dimensional…

Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes (PDMPs) are studied in a general framework. First, different constructions are proven to be equivalent. Second, we introduce a coupling between two PDMPs following the same differential flow which…

We study the spectral properties of positive absolutely minimum attaining operators defined on infinite dimensional complex Hilbert spaces and using that derive a characterization theorem for such type of operators. We construct several…

The Contextuality-by-Default approach to determining and measuring the (non)contextuality of a system of random variables requires that every random variable in the system be represented by an equivalent set of dichotomous random variables.…

Some variational problems for a Foppl-von Karman plate subject to general equilibrated loads are studied. The existence of global minimizers is proved under the assumption that the out-of-plane displacement fulfils homogeneous Dirichlet…

The Clebsch method provides a unifying approach for deriving variational principles for continuous and discrete dynamical systems where elements of a vector space are used to control dynamics on the cotangent bundle of a Lie group…

Let $\Omega \Subset \mathbb R^n$, $f \in C^1(\mathbb R^{N\times n})$ and $g\in C^1(\mathbb R^N)$, where $N,n \in \mathbb N$. We study the minimisation problem of finding $u \in W^{1,\infty}_0(\Omega;\mathbb R^N)$ that satisfies \[ \big\|…

Moser's Bernstein theorem \cite{moser61} says that an entire minimal graph of codimension 1 with bounded slope must be a hyperplane. An analogous result for arbitrary codimension is not true, by an example of Lawson-Osserman. Here, we show…

We introduce a new quantification of nonuniform ellipticity in variational problems via convex duality, and prove higher differentiability and $2d$-smoothness results for vector valued minimizers of possibly degenerate functionals. Our…
