The contribution of this work is twofold. The first part deals with a Hilbert-space version of McCann's celebrated result on the existence and uniqueness of monotone measure-preserving maps: given two probability measures $\rm P$ and $\rm…
The notion of a Douglas space of second kind of a Finsler space with $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric was introduced by I. Y. Lee [9]. Since then, so many geometers have studied this topic e. g., [14]. In this paper, we prove that a Douglas space…
We introduce an (equi-)affine invariant diffusion geometry by which surfaces that go through squeeze and shear transformations can still be properly analyzed. The definition of an affine invariant metric enables us to construct an invariant…
In commutative monoids, the $\omega$-value measures how far an element is from being prime. This invariant, which is important in understanding the factorization theory of monoids, has been the focus of much recent study. This paper…
A Wasserstein spaces is a metric space of sufficiently concentrated probability measures over a general metric space. The main goal of this paper is to estimate the largeness of Wasserstein spaces, in a sense to be precised. In a first…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
A recently developed tool allows for a description of spacetime as a manifold with a Lorentz-invariant (lower) limit length built-in. This is accomplished in terms of geometric quantities depending on two spacetime events (bitensors) and…
Diakonov theory of quantum gravity, in which tetrads emerge as the bilinear combinations of the fermionis fields,\cite{Diakonov2011} suggests that in general relativity the metric may have dimension 2, i.e. $[g_{\mu\nu}]=1/[L]^2$. Several…
In the context of strong gravitational lensing, the magnification of image is of crucial importance to constrain various lens models. For several commonly used quadruple lens models, the magnification invariants, defined as the sum of the…
We consider a uniformly rectifiable set $\Gamma \subset \mathbb R^n$ of dimension $d<n-1$. By using degenerate elliptic operators on the complement $\Omega = \mathbb R^n \setminus \Gamma$, Guy David, Svitlana Mayboroda, and the author…
In this paper, we define new fractal dimensions of a metric space in order to calculate the roughness of a set on a large scale. These fractal dimensions are called upper zeta dimension and lower zeta dimension. The upper zeta dimension is…
Precision measurements of the fundamental constants are tour de force of basic metrology, where the useful information is usually beyond the last digit of the measured value. They challenge theoretical models and measurement technologies…
The notion of $\ast$-idempotent measure is a modification of the notion of idempotent measure defined for every triangular norm $\ast$. We prove existence and uniqueness of invariant $\ast$-idempotent measures for iterated function systems…
The basic input for many real objects is a finite cloud of unordered points. The strongest equivalence between objects in practice is rigid motion in a Euclidean space. A recent polynomial-time classification of point clouds required a…
We introduce a systematic way to obtain expressions for computing the amount of fundamental quantities such as helicity and angular momentum contained in static matter, given its charge and magnetization densities. The method is based on a…
We introduce a geometric invariant that we call the index of symmetry, which measures how far is a Riemannian manifold from being a symmetric space. We compute, in a geometric way, the index of symmetry of compact naturally reductive…
Counterfactual reasoning is a foundational topic in both philosophical and logical studies \cite{Stalnaker1968-STAATO-5, Lewis1973-LEWC-2}. A pivotal component of counterfactual analysis is the concept of similarity between possible worlds…
A classical theorem of Hutchinson asserts that if an iterated function system acts on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by similitudes and satisfies the open set condition then it admits a unique self-similar measure with Hausdorff dimension equal to the…
Affine metrics and its associated algebroid bundle are developed. Theses structures are applied to the general relativity and provide an structure for unification of gravity and electromagnetism. The final result is a field equation on the…
The possibility of mass in the context of scale-invariant, generally covariant theories, is discussed. The realizations of scale invariance which are considered, are in the context of a gravitational theory where the action, in the first…
