We investigate the properties of a class of piecewise-fractional maps arising from the introduction of an invariance under rescaling into convex quadratic maps. The subsequent maps are quasiconvex, and pseudoconvex on specific convex cones;…

Restrictions are obtained on the topology of a compact divergence-free null hypersurface in a four-dimensional Lorentzian manifold whose Ricci tensor is zero or satisfies some weaker conditions. This is done by showing that each null…

We show a new functional limit theorem for weakly dependent regularly varying sequences of random vectors. As it turns out, the convergence takes place in the space of R^d valued c\`{a}dl\`{a}g functions endowed with the so-called weak M1…

We consider an even probability distribution on the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space with the property that it assigns measure zero to any hyperplane through the origin. Given $N$ independent random vectors with this distribution, under the…

In [2], the authors develop a global correspondence between immersed weakly horospherically convex hypersurfaces $\phi:M^n \to \mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ and a class of conformal metrics on domains of the round sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$. Some of the key…

We explore the dependence of weak lensing phenomena on the background cosmology. We first generalise the relation between $P_\psi(\omega)$, the angular power spectrum of the distortion, and the power spectrum of density fluctuations to…

Let $\mu$ be a probability distribution on $\mathbb{R}^d$ which assigns measure zero to every hyperplane and $S$ a set of points sampled independently from $\mu$. What can be said about the expected combinatorial structure of the convex…

We show that the existence of a weakly compact cardinal over the Zermelo-Fraenkel's set theory is proof-theoretically reducible to iterations of Mostowski collapsings and Mahlo operations.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for gluings of hyperconvex metric spaces along weakly externally hyperconvex subsets in order that the resulting space be hyperconvex. This leads to a full characterization of gluings of two…

Context: Weak gravitational lensing is a key cosmological probe for current and future large-scale surveys. While power spectra are commonly used for analyses, they fail to capture non-Gaussian information from nonlinear structure…

We study a tight Bennett-type concentration inequality for sums of heterogeneous and independent variables, defined as a one-dimensional minimization. We show that this refinement, which outperforms the standard known bounds, remains…

In order to prove weak convergence of the periodic multiplicative Selmer algorithm we ensure that the periodicity matrix is positive and establish a relation between its entries and eigenvalues. Since we can imply that the limit of these…
