In this note we show that a connected, closed and locally convex subset (with an extra assumption on the diameter with respect to the induced length metric if $\kappa>0$) of a $CAT(\kappa)$ space is convex.
Oscillations between photons and axion-like particles (ALP) travelling in intergalactic magnetic fields have been invoked to explain a number of astrophysical phenomena, or used to constrain ALP properties using observations. One example is…
We explore models and phenomenology of a photophobic axion-like particle (ALP), an axion whose coupling to photons is maximally suppressed without fine-tuning of the underlying parameters. We demonstrate that photophobia can be a natural UV…
We construct for every finite-dimensional Alexandrov space $A$ and every point $p \in A$ a $2$-convex function $f_p$ in a small neighborhood around $p$, which approximates $\operatorname{dist}_p^2$ up to second order. Moreover, the function…
The current development of digital image correlation, whose displacement uncertainty is well below the pixel value, enables one to better characterise the behaviour of materials and the response of structures to external loads. A general…
Producing spatial transformations that are diffeomorphic is a key goal in deformable image registration. As a diffeomorphic transformation should have positive Jacobian determinant |J| everywhere, the number of voxels with |J|<0 has been…
For digital images, there is an established homotopy equivalence relation which parallels that of classical topology. Many classical homotopy equivalence invariants, such as the Euler characteristic and the homology groups, do not remain…
In contemporary imaging systems, achieving optimal auto-focus (AF) performance hinges on precise lens positioning. Extensive research has delved into refining algorithms for determining the ideal lens position across passive, active, and…
We construct finite free resolutions of Z over ZG, where G is the fundamental group of a surface distinct from S^2 and RP^2, and define diagonal approximations for these resolutions. We then procceed to give some possible applications that…
We introduce three generalizations of homotopy equivalence in digital images, to allow us to express whether a finite and an infinite digital image are similar with respect to homotopy. We show that these three generalizations are not…
This gives some information about the conformal point and the calibrating conic, and their relationship one to the other. These concepts are useful for visualizing image geometry, and lead to intuitive ways to compute geometry, such as…
We define, in the frame of an abstract Wiener space, the notions of convexity and of concavity for the equivalence classes of random variables. As application we show that some important inequalities of the finite dimensional case have…
We continue the study of freezing sets for digital images introduced in [4, 2, 3]. We prove methods for obtaining freezing sets for digital images (X, c_i) for X \subset Z^2 and i \in {1, 2}. We give examples to show how these methods can…
We obtain operator concavity (convexity) of some functions of two or three variables by using perspectives of regular operator mappings of one or several variables. As an application, we obtain, for $ 0<p < 1,$ concavity, respectively…
Axion Like Particles (ALPs), postulated to solve the strong-CP problem, are predicted to couple with photons in the presence of magnetic fields, which may lead to a significant change in the observed spectra of gamma-ray sources such as…
We introduce the "loop shortening property" and the "basepoint loop shortening property" for finitely generated groups, and examine their relation to quadratic isoperimetric functions and almost convexity.
We show that the fundamental objects of the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory, namely the $L_p$-affine surface areas for a convex body, are closely related to information theory: they are exponentials of R\'enyi divergences of the cone measures…
In generalized Lebesgue spaces L^{p(.)} with variable exponent p(.) defined on the real axis, we obtain several inequalities of approximation by integral functions of finite degree. Approximation properties of Bernstein singular integrals…
Our purpose of this paper is to focus on fixed point property in fuzzy metric space. To achieve our objective, we will introduce a new contraction condition to examine the fixed point for multi-valued mapping, then we will be investigating…
In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, satisfying a general contractive inequality depending of two additional mappings.
