The $J$-equation proposed by Donaldson is a complex Hessian quotient equation on K\"ahler manifolds. The solvability of the $J$-equation is proved by Song-Weinkove to be equivalent to the existence of a subsolution. It is also conjectured…

We study an infinite-dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction introduced by Donaldson and associated with the constant scalar curvature equation on a Riemann surface. It is known that the corresponding moment map equations admit special…

In this paper, we obtain optimal upper bounds for all the Neumann eigenvalues in two situations (that are closely related). First we consider a one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem where the density is a function $h(x)$ whose…

Here we develop some basic analytic tools to study compactness properties of $J$-curves (i.e. pseudo-holomorphic curves) when regarded as submanifolds. Incorporating techniques from the theory of minimal surfaces, we derive an inhomogeneous…

Structured reinforcement learning and stochastic optimization often involve parameters evolving on matrix Lie groups such as rotations and rigid-body transformations. We establish a representation-optimization dichotomy for…

We prove a gradient estimate for Donaldson's equation \[\omega\wedge(\chi+\sqrt{-1}\partial\overline{\partial}\varphi)^{n-1}=e^F(\chi+\sqrt{-1}\partial\overline{\partial}\varphi)^n\] (and its parabolic analog) on an $n$-dimensional compact…

This note has a twofold purpose. To improve the best known lower estimates of the Hardy-Littlewood inequality for $m$-linear forms in $\ell_{p}$ spaces and to provide a closed formula encompassing the cases $p>2m$ and $% p=2m.$ Our approach…

This paper presents a lower bound for optimizing a finite sum of $n$ functions, where each function is $L$-smooth and the sum is $\mu$-strongly convex. We show that no algorithm can reach an error $\epsilon$ in minimizing all functions from…

We formulate an effective variant of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture, then review effective results on K-stability of spherical varieties, that is, K-stability criterions which can be effectively computed given the combinatorial data…

We study a family of potential functions for online learning. We show that if the potential function has strictly positive derivatives of order 1-4 then the min-max optimal strategy for the adversary is Brownian motion. Using that fact we…

We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric "adjacent" to a fixed K\"ahler class is unique up to isomorphism. This extends the uniqueness theorem of Donaldson and Chen-Tian, and formally fits into the infinite dimensional G.I.T…
