We set up a formalism of Maurer-Cartan moduli sets for L-infinity algebras and associated twistings based on the closed model category structure on formal differential graded algebras (a.k.a. differential graded coalgebras). Among other…
For any metric space X, the predual of Lip(X) is unique. If X has finite diameter or is complete and convex --- in particular, if it is a Banach space --- then the predual of Lip_0(X) is unique.
For all $1\leq m\leq n-1$, we investigate the interaction of locally finite measures in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the family of $m$-dimensional Lipschitz graphs. For instance, we characterize Radon measures $\mu$, which are carried by Lipschitz…
We introduce the notion of good coverings of metric spaces, and prove that if a metric space admits a good covering, then it has the same locally Lipschitz homotopy type as the nerve complex of the covering. As an application, we obtain a…
We show that, given a Banach space $X$, the Lipschitz-free space over $X$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is isomorphic to $(\sum_{n=1}^\infty \mathcal{F}(X))_{\ell_1}$. Some applications are presented, including a non-linear version of…
We study the existence of tangent lines, i.e. subsets of the tangent space isometric to the real line, in tangent spaces of metric spaces. We first revisit the almost everywhere metric differentiability of Lipschitz continuous curves. We…
We characterise the Banach spaces $X$ which are $L_1$-predual as those for which every Lipschitz compact mapping $f:N\longrightarrow X$ admits, for every $\varepsilon>0$ and every $M$ containing $N$, a Lipschitz (compact) extension…
In this article the author presents results on the selection for the space of convex hulls of $n$ points and compacts of the complete convex metric space of Busemann nonpositve curvature. Namely, we determine Lipschitz and H\"older…
Datasets consisting of objects such as shapes, networks, images, or signals overlaid on such geometric objects permeate data science. Such datasets are often equipped with metrics that quantify the similarity or divergence between any pair…
Recently the authors have explored new concepts of plurisubharmonicity and pseudoconvexity, with much of the attendant analysis, in the context of calibrated manifolds. Here a much broader extension is made. This development covers a wide…
The concept of electric-magnetic duality can be extended to linearized gravity. It has indeed been established that in four dimensions, the Pauli-Fierz action (quadratic part of the Einstein-Hilbert action) can be cast in a form that is…
In the literature surrounding the theory of Banach spaces, considerable effort has been invested in exploring the conditions on a Banach space X that characterise X as being an inner product space or as a linearly isomorphic copy of a…
The $p$-modulus of curves, test plans, upper gradients, charts, differentials, approximations in energy and density of directions are all concepts associated to the theory of Sobolev functions in metric measure spaces. The purpose of this…
In this paper we define a space $\ghu{M}$ of Hardy--Goldberg type on a measured metric space satisfying some mild conditions. We prove that the dual of $\ghu{M}$ may be identified with $\gbmo{M}$, a space of functions with "local" bounded…
We generalize the classical Fisher information metric on statistical models to $L^p$-metrics on various spaces of differential forms or group of diffeomorphisms. Using this new interpretation from information geometry, we derive several new…
We characterize the existence of a locally conformally K\"ahler metric on a compact complex manifold in terms of currents, adapting the celebrated result of Harvey and Lawson for K\"ahler metrics.
Using the standard tools of Daniell-Stone integrals, Stone-\v{C}ech compactification and Gelfand transform, we discuss how any Dirichlet form defined on a measurable space can be transformed into a regular Dirichlet form on a locally…
The nonlinear spaces of shapes (unparameterized immersed curves or submanifolds) are of interest for many applications in image analysis, such as the identification of shapes that are similar modulo the action of some group. In this paper…
Let $D$ be a nonempty open set in a metric space $(X,d)$ with $\partial D\neq \emptyset$. Define \begin{equation*} h_{D,c}(x,y)=\log\left(1+c\frac{d(x,y)}{\sqrt{d_D(x)d_D(y)}}\right), \end{equation*} where $d_D(x)=d(x,\partial D)$ is the…
We consider subsets $S$ of a metric space $M$ such that Lipschitz mappings defined on $S$ can be extended to Lipschitz mappings on $M$, and we show that the union of such subsets has the same property under appropriate geometric conditions.…
