A subset of Q^n is called semilinear (or piecewise linear) if it is Boolean combination of linear half-spaces. We study the computational complexity of the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) over the rationals when all the constraints…
In this article, we derive conditions for the existence of solutions to state-constrained continuity inclusions in Wasserstein spaces whose right-hand sides may be discontinuous in time. These latter are based on a fine investigation of the…
The classical Michael-Simon and Allard inequality is a Sobolev inequality for functions defined on a submanifold of Euclidean space. It is governed by a universal constant independent of the manifold, but displays on the right-hand side an…
Mittag-Leffler condition ensures the exactness of the inverse limit of short exact sequences indexed on a partially ordered set $(I,\leq)$ admitting a $countable$ cofinal subset. We extend Mittag-Leffler condition by relatively relaxing the…
We give an extension of the theory of relaxation of variational integrals in classical Sobolev spaces to the setting of metric Sobolev spaces. More precisely, we establish a general framework to deal with the problem of finding an integral…
Matrix completion is a basic machine learning problem that has wide applications, especially in collaborative filtering and recommender systems. Simple non-convex optimization algorithms are popular and effective in practice. Despite recent…
We prove that if an infinite, discrete semigroup has the property that every right syndetic set is left syndetic, then the semigroup has a left invariant mean. We prove that the weak*-closed convex hull of the two-sided translates of every…
In this paper we study nonlinear interpolation problems for interpolation and peak-interpolation sets of function algebras. The subject goes back to the classical Rudin-Carleson interpolation theorem. In particular, we prove the following…
We review several (and provide new) results on the theory of moments, sums of squares and basic semi-algebraic sets when convexity is present. In particular, we show that under convexity, the hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations for…
We develop a Lagrange multiplier theory for nonconvex set-valued optimization problems under Lipschitz-type regularity conditions. Instead of classical continuous linear functionals, we introduce closed convex processes -- set-valued…
Hindman's celebrated Finite Sums Theorem, and its high-dimensional version due to Milliken and Taylor, are extended from covers of countable sets to covers of arbitrary topological spaces with Menger's classic covering property. The methods…
This article characterizes topological duals of spaces of cadlag processes. We obtain extensions of functional analytic results of Dellacherie and Meyer that underlie many fundamental results in stochastic analysis. In particular, we obtain…
This paper studies hidden convexity properties associated with constrained optimization problems over the set of rotation matrices $\text{SO}(n)$. Such problems are nonconvex due to the constraint $X \in \text{SO}(n)$. Nonetheless, we show…
We study the a.s. convergence of a sequence of random embeddings of a fixed manifold into Euclidean spaces of increasing dimensions. We show that the limit is deterministic. As a consequence, we show that many intrinsic functionals of the…
Functional representations of the capacity monad based on the max and min operations were considered in \cite{Ra1} and \cite{Ny1}. Nykyforchyn considered in \cite{Ny2} some alternative monad structure for the possibility capacity functor…
We study a natural measurable selection problem for which the standard uniformisation theorems do not seem to apply directly, yet a Borel selector exists. More precisely, we consider families of finite dimensional functions that admit…
We show that the sequential closure of a family of probability measures on the canonical space of c{\`a}dl{\`a}g paths satisfying Stricker's uniform tightness condition is a weak${}^*$ compact set of semimartingale measures in the pairing…
In the present paper, conditions under which the images of uniformly convex sets through $C^{1,1}$ regular mappings between Banach spaces remain convex are established. These conditions are expressed by a certain quantitative relation…
In 1952, Michael posed a question about the functional continuity of commutative Frechet algebras in his memoir, known as Michael problem in the literature. We settle this in the affirmative along with its various equivalent forms, even for…
Motivated by applications, we consider here new operator theoretic approaches to Conditional mean embeddings (CME). Our present results combine a spectral analysis-based optimization scheme with the use of kernels, stochastic processes, and…
