We define the finite extension property for $d$-dimensional subshifts, which generalizes the topological strong spatial mixing condition defined by Brice\~no (2016), and we prove that this property is invariant under topological conjugacy.…

We study the contraction in Wasserstein distance of the coordinate ascent variational inference algorithm. This is shown to hold under a transport-information inequality at the fixed points and a functional smoothness condition. The results…

We present a simple approach to study the one-dimensional pressureless Euler system via adhesion dynamics in the Wasserstein space of probability measures with finite quadratic moments. Starting from a discrete system of a finite number of…

In this paper we show that, for topological dynamical systems with a dense set (in the weak topology) of periodic measures, a typical (in Baire's sense) invariant measure has, for each $q>0$, zero lower $q$-generalized fractal dimension.…

Let X/S be a hyperelliptic curve of genus g over the spectrum of a discrete valuation ring. Two fundamental numerical invariants are attached to X/S: the valuation of the hyperelliptic discriminant of X/S, and the valuation of the Mumford…

In this paper we analyze the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on $\mathbb{T}$ with randomized initial data in $\cap_{s < \frac{1}{2}} H^{s}(\mathbb{T})$ according to a Wiener measure. We construct an invariant measure at each…

Given a family $f:\mathcal X \to S$ of canonically polarized manifolds, the unique K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on the fibers induce a hermitian metric on the relative canonical bundle $\mathcal K_{\mathcal X/S}$. We use a global elliptic…

Sliced Wasserstein distances preserve properties of classic Wasserstein distances while being more scalable for computation and estimation in high dimensions. The goal of this work is to quantify this scalability from three key aspects: (i)…

Light propagation through a normal medium is determined not only by the real part of the refractive index but also by its imaginary part, which represents optical gain and loss. Therefore, two media with different gain and loss landscapes…

The recently developed concept of spreadability, $\mathcal{S}(t)$, provides a direct link between time-dependent diffusive transport and the microstructure of two-phase media across length scales. We explicitly compute $\mathcal{S}(t)$ for…

We consider skew product dynamical systems $f:\Theta\times\mathbb{R}\to\Theta\times\mathbb{R}, f(\theta,y)=(T\theta,f_\theta(y))$ with a (generalized) baker transformation $T$ at the base and uniformly bounded increasing $C^3$ fibre maps…
