Working within the class of piecewise constant conductivities, the inverse problem of electrical impedance tomography can be recast as a shape optimization problem where the discontinuity interface is the unknown. Using Gr\"oger's…

This paper deals with the introduction of a decomposition of the deformations of curved thin beams, with section of order $\delta$, which takes into account the specific geometry of such beams. A deformation $v$ is split into an elementary…

We consider a one dimensional L\'evy bridge x_B of length n and index 0 < \alpha < 2, i.e. a L\'evy random walk constrained to start and end at the origin after n time steps, x_B(0) = x_B(n)=0. We compute the distribution P_B(A,n) of the…

We derive out naturally some important distributions such as high order normal distributions and high order exponent distributions and the Gamma distribution from a geometrical way. Further, we obtain the exact mean-values of integral form…

Random flights in $\mathbb{R}^d,d\geq 2,$ with Dirichlet-distributed displacements and uniformly distributed orientation are analyzed. The explicit characteristic functions of the position $\underline{\bf X}_d(t),\,t>0,$ when the number of…

Given a minimum measurable length underlying spacetime, the latter may be effectively regarded as discrete, at scales of order the Planck length. A systematic discretization of continuum physics may be effected most efficiently through the…

It has been pointed out by Patriarca et al. (2005) that the power-law tailed equilibrium distribution in heterogeneous kinetic exchange models with a distributed saving parameter can be resolved as a mixture of Gamma distributions…

In the framework of a strictly local regular Dirichlet space ${\bf X}$ we introduce the subspaces $PW_{\omega},\>\>\omega>0,$ of Paley-Wiener functions of bandwidth $\omega$. It is shown that every function in $PW_{\omega},\>\>\omega>0,$ is…

Plastic yield of amorphous solids occurs by power law distributed slip avalanches whose universality is still debated. Determination of the power law exponents from experiments and molecular dynamics simulations is hampered by limited…

We study the convex hull of the set of points visited by a two-dimensional random walker of T discrete time steps. Two natural observables that characterize the convex hull in two dimensions are its perimeter L and area A. While the mean…

We calculate numerically the sizes S of jumps (avalanches) between successively pinned configurations of an elastic line (d=1) or interface (d=2), pulled by a spring of (small) strength m^2 in a random-field landscape. We obtain strong…

A new series expansion for the the Airy function is presented here that stems from the method of steepest descents and can be related to the Hadamard expansions as presented in prevous works cited in the manuscript, and which is convergent…

Quantifying the universality of avalanche observables beyond critical exponents is of current great interest in theory and experiments. Here, we improve the characterization of the spatio-temporal process inside avalanches in the…

Consider the Delaunay triangulation T of a set P of points in the plane as a Euclidean graph, in which the weight of every edge is its length. It has long been conjectured that the dilation in T of any pair p, p \in P, which is the ratio of…

Dendrograms used in data analysis are ultrametric spaces, hence objects of nonarchimedean geometry. It is known that there exist $p$-adic representation of dendrograms. Completed by a point at infinity, they can be viewed as subtrees of the…

This paper studies the relationship between volume and surface uniform measures on n-dimensional p-balls under the p-norm. It is proved that for p=1, p=2 and p=infinity, and only for these values of p, radial projection maps a…

The study of matter fields on an ensemble of random geometries is a difficult problem still in need of new methods and ideas. We will follow a point of view inspired by probability theory techniques that relies on an expansion of the two…

We study random graphs with latent geometric structure, where the probability of each edge depends on the underlying random positions corresponding to the two endpoints. We focus on the setting where this conditional probability is a…

We study random points on the real line generated by the eigenvalues in unitary invariant random matrix ensembles or by more general repulsive particle systems. As the number of points tends to infinity, we prove convergence of the…

Monsky's celebrated equidissection theorem follows from his more general proof of the existence of a polynomial relation $f$ among the areas of the triangles in a dissection of the unit square. More recently, the authors studied a different…
