The aim of this article is to make a contribution to the Bayesian procedure of testing precise hypotheses for parametric models. For this purpose, we define the Bayesian Discrepancy Measure that allows one to evaluate the suitability of a…

We study the Penrose inequality and its rigidity for metrics with singular sets. Our result could be viewed as a complement of Theorem 1.1 of Lu and Miao (J. Funct. Anal. 281, 2021) and Theorem 1.2 of Shi, Wang and Yu (Math. Z. 291, 2019),…

In the Metric Dimension problem, one asks for a minimum-size set $R$ of vertices such that for any pair of vertices of the graph, there is a vertex from $R$ whose two distances to the vertices of the pair are distinct. This problem has…

For every nonempty compact convex subset $K$ of a normed linear space a (unique) point $c_K \in K$, called the generalized Chebyshev center, is distinguished. It is shown that $c_K$ is a common fixed point for the isometry group of the…

We construct non-trivial continuous isospectral deformations of Riemannian metrics on the ball and on the sphere in $\R^n$ for every $n\geq 9$. The metrics on the sphere can be chosen arbitrarily close to the round metric; in particular,…

A subnormal weighted shift may be transformed to another shift in various ways, such as taking the p-th power of each weight or forming the Aluthge transform. \ We determine in a number of cases whether the resulting shift is subnormal,…

We show if a metric measure space admits a differentiable structure then porous sets have measure zero and hence the measure is pointwise doubling. We then give a construction to show if we only require an approximate differentiable…

We propose a "decomposition method" to prove non-asymptotic bound for the convergence of empirical measures in various dual norms. The main point is to show that if one measures convergence in duality with sufficiently regular observables,…

What distributions arise as the distribution of the distance between two typical points in some measured metric space? This seems to be a surprisingly subtle problem. We conjecture that every distribution with a density function whose…

A mixed graph can be seen as a type of digraph containing some edges (two opposite arcs). Here we introduce the concept of sequence mixed graphs, which is a generalization of both sequence graphs and iterated line digraphs. These structures…

We study characteristics which might distinguish two-graphs by introducing different numerical measures on the collection of graphs on $n$ vertices. Two conjectures are stated, one using these numerical measures and the other using the deck…

It has been conjectured by Fino and Vezzoni that a compact complex manifold admitting both a compatible SKT and a compatible balanced metric also admits a compatible K\"ahler metric. Using the shear construction and classification results…

We consider the setting of Reeb graphs of piecewise linear functions and study distances between them that are stable, meaning that functions which are similar in the supremum norm ought to have similar Reeb graphs. We define an edit…

We generalize the family of $\alpha$-divergences using a pair of strictly comparable weighted means. In particular, we obtain the $1$-divergence in the limit case $\alpha\rightarrow 1$ (a generalization of the Kullback-Leibler divergence)…

One way to study the combinatorics of finite metric spaces is to study the betweenness relation associated with the metric space. In the hypergraph metrization problem, one has to find and characterize metric betweennesses whose collinear…
