We use convex relaxation techniques to produce lower bounds on the optimal value of subset selection problems and generate good approximate solutions. We then explicitly bound the quality of these relaxations by studying the approximation…
A geodesic bicombing on a metric space selects for every pair of points a geodesic connecting them. We prove existence and uniqueness results for geodesic bicombings satisfying different convexity conditions. In combination with recent work…
We begin by giving an example of a smoothly bounded convex domain that has complex geodesics that do not extend continuously up to $\partial\mathbb{D}$. This example suggests that continuity at the boundary of the complex geodesics of a…
It has been shown that the Cauchy problem for geodesics in the space of K\"ahler metrics with a fixed cohomology class on a compact complex manifold $M$ can be effectively reduced to the problem of finding the flow of a related hamiltonian…
We compute the exact relaxation rate of the partially asymmetric exclusion process with open boundaries, with boundary rates opposing the preferred direction of flow in the bulk. This reverse bias introduces a length scale in the system, at…

This work develops an algorithm for PDE-constrained shape optimization based on Lipschitz transformations. Building on previous work in this field, the $p$-Laplace operator is utilized to approximate a descent method for Lipschitz shapes.…
We show that adaptive proximal gradient methods for convex problems are not restricted to traditional Lipschitzian assumptions. Our analysis reveals that a class of linesearch-free methods is still convergent under mere local H\"older…
A controlled sweeping process with prox-regular set, $W^{1,2}$-controls, and separable endpoints constraints is considered in this paper. Existence of optimal solutions is established and local optimality conditions are derived via strong…
Conditions for the existence of closed geodesics is a classic, much-studied subject in Riemannian geometry, with many beautiful results and powerful techniques. However, many of the techniques that work so well in that context are far less…
We start presenting an $L^{\infty}$-gradient bound for solutions to non-homogeneous $p$-Laplacean type systems and equations, via suitable non-linear potentials of the right hand side. Such a bound implies a Lorentz space characterization…
