We investigate the low-dimensional structure of deterministic transformations between random variables, i.e., transport maps between probability measures. In the context of statistics and machine learning, these transformations can be used…
The graph translation operator has been defined with good spectral properties in mind, and in particular with the end goal of being an isometric operator. Unfortunately, the resulting definitions do not provide good intuitions on a…
Diffusion-driven patterns appear on curved surfaces in many settings, initiated by unstable modes of an underlying Laplacian operator. On a flat surface or perfect sphere, the patterns are degenerate, reflecting translational/rotational…
This paper studies convergence behavior of latent mixing measures that arise in finite and infinite mixture models, using transportation distances (i.e., Wasserstein metrics). The relationship between Wasserstein distances on the space of…
We study the convergence of distributions on finite paths of weighted digraphs, namely the family of Boltzmann distributions and the sequence of uniform distributions. Targeting applications to the convergence of distributions on paths, we…
The calculation of transport profiles from experimental measurements belongs in the category of inverse problems which are known to come with issues of ill-conditioning or singularity. A reformulation of the calculation, the matricial…
We consider the waveguide modelled by a $n$-dimensional infinite tube. The operator we study is the Dirichlet Laplacian perturbed by two distant perturbations. The perturbations are described by arbitrary abstract operators ''localized'' in…
Recent studies have indicated that the coarse grained dynamics of a large class of traffic models and driven-diffusive systems may be described by urn models. We consider a class of one-dimensional urn models whereby particles hop from an…
We study the boundary regularity of solutions of elliptic operators in divergence form with $C^{0,\alpha}$ coefficients or operators which are small perturbations of the Laplacian in non-smooth domains. We show that, as in the case of the…
We introduce the diffusion and superposition distances as two metrics to compare signals supported in the nodes of a network. Both metrics consider the given vectors as initial temperature distributions and diffuse heat trough the edges of…
We provide a pointwise bipolar theorem for liminf-closed convex sets of positive Borel measurable functions on a sigma-compact metric space without the assumption that the polar is a tight set of measures. As applications we derive a…
We consider a diffusion problem on a network on whose nodes we impose Dirichlet and generalized, non-local Kirchhoff-type conditions. We prove well-posedness of the associated initial value problem, and we exploit the theory of…
We provide an asymptotic analysis of linear transport problems in the diffusion limit under minimal regularity assumptions on the domain, the coefficients, and the data. The weak form of the limit equation is derived and the convergence of…
A variety of boundary value problems in linear transport theory are expressed as a diffusion equation of the two-way, or forward-backward, type. In such problems boundary data are specified only on part of the boundary, which introduces…
In this note we present some properties of the Dirac operator on noncompact metric graphs with Kirchoff-type vertex conditions. In particular, we discuss the specific features of the spectrum of the operator and, finally, we give some…
Traditionally the effects of MHD instabilities and micro-instabilities on plasma confinement are investigated separately. However, these two instabilities often occur simultaneously, with the overlap of the dynamics on a broad range of…
We first give a characterization of the L^1-transportation cost-information inequality on a metric space and next find some appropriate sufficient condition to transportation cost-information inequalities for dependent sequences.…
A fundamentally different approach to path integral quantum mechanics in curved space-time is presented, as compared to the standard approaches currently available in the literature. Within the context of scalar particle propagation in a…
Darboux transformation of a second-order linear differential operator is a well-known technique with many applications in mathematics and physics. We study Darboux transformation from the point of view of Markov semigroups of diffusion…
Experiments featuring fast heat propagation, or so called "non-local" transport, were a puzzle for almost two decades. However recently it was shown, and it is recalled here, that a collective ideal MHD response of the plasma provides a…
