In many applications involving binary variables, only pairwise dependence measures, such as correlations, are available. However, for multi-way tables involving more than two variables, these quantities do not uniquely determine the joint…

We present a sheaf-theoretic construction of shape space -- the space of all shapes. We do this by describing a homotopy sheaf on the poset category of constructible sets, where each set is mapped to its Persistent Homology Transform (PHT).…

A unified construction of the $H^m$-nonconforming virtual elements of any order $k$ is developed on any shape of polytope in $\mathbb R^n$ with constraints $m\leq n$ and $k\geq m$. As a vital tool in the construction, a generalized Green's…

We propose and explore a new, general-purpose method for the implicit time integration of elastica. Key to our approach is the use of a mixed variational principle. In turn its finite element discretization leads to an efficient alternating…
