An inequality refining the lower bound for a periodic (Breitenberger) uncertainty constant is proved for a wide class of functions. A connection of uncertainty constants for periodic and non-periodic functions is extended to this class. A…
We study the notion of debiasability for cost functions arising in optimal transport. We call a symmetric cost function $c:\mathscr{X}\times\mathscr{X}\to\mathbb{R}\cup\{+\infty\}$ debiasable if it satisfies $c(x,y)\ge…
We prove transportation-cost inequalities for the law of SDE solutions driven by general Gaussian processes. Examples include the fractional Brownian motion, but also more general processes like bifractional Brownian motion. In case of…
In this paper we prove some improved Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities and uncertainty principle for complex- and vector-valued functions on $\mathbb R^n$, which is a further study of the results in \cite{Dang-Deng-Qian}. In…
We study the transportation problem on the unit sphere $S^{n-1}$ for symmetric probability measures and the cost function $c(x,y) = \log \frac{1}{\langle x, y \rangle}$. We calculate the variation of the corresponding Kantorovich functional…
For a given $1$-Lipschitz map $u\colon\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m$ we define a partition, up to a set of Lebesgue measure zero, of $\mathbb{R}^n$ into maximal closed convex sets such that restriction of $u$ is an isometry on these sets. We…
We study optimal transport plans from $m$ equally weighted points (with weights $1/m$) to $n$ equally weighted points (with weights $1/n$). The Birkhoff-von Neumann Theorem implies that if $m=n$, then the optimal transport plan can be…
We consider the incompressible two-dimensional Euler equation in the plane in the case when its initial vorticity is the characteristic function of a bounded open set. We show that the travel distance grows linearly for most of fluid…
The aim of this paper is two prove two versions of the Dynamical Uncertainty Principlefor the Schr\"odinger equation $i\partial_s u=\mathcal{L}u+Vu$, $u(s=0)=u_0$ where$\mathcal{L}$ is the sub-Laplacian on the Heisenberg group.We show two…
Though the sharp Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle has been extensively studied in the entire Euclidean spaces, the counterpart on the half spaces or more general orthants has been missing in the literature. We investigate the sharp…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, and let $U$ be a subset of $X$ whose complement is compact. We use the exponential mixing results for diagonalizable flows on $X$ to give upper estimates for the…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that the position and momentum of a particle cannot be sharply determined simultaneously. Standard-deviation and entropic formulations capture the spread of the probability distribution but say…
This thesis develops a new divergence that generalizes relative entropy and can be used to compare probability measures without a requirement of absolute continuity. We establish properties of the divergence, and in particular derive and…
We consider the Monge-Kantorovich problem between two random measuress. More precisely, given probability measures $\mathbb{P}_1,\mathbb{P}_2\in\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(M))$ on the space $\mathcal{P}(M)$ of probability measures on a smooth…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is one of the main tenets of quantum theory. Nevertheless, and despite its fundamental importance for our understanding of quantum foundations, there has been some confusion in its interpretation: although…
We study the quantum properties of the three-dimensional higher derivative gravity. In particular we calculate the running of the gravitational and cosmological constants. The flow of these couplings shows that there exist both Gaussian and…
We discuss methods of Optimal Transportation Theory and its relations to problems in quantum mechanics. This essentially means that the cost function is some Hamiltonian $H(q,p)$ on a phase space (symplectic manifold), and the marginal…
We develop the theory of a metric, which we call the $\nu$-based Wasserstein metric and denote by $W_\nu$, on the set of probability measures $\mathcal P(X)$ on a domain $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$. This metric is based on a slight…
We establish a general theory of optimal strong error estimation for numerical approximations of a second-order parabolic stochastic partial differential equation with monotone drift driven by a multiplicative infinite-dimensional Wiener…
Two central concepts of quantum mechanics are Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, and a subtle form of non-locality that Einstein famously called ``spooky action at a distance''. These two fundamental features have thus far been distinct…
