Scaling problems have a rich and diverse history, and thereby have found numerous applications in several fields of science and engineering. For instance, the matrix scaling problem has had applications ranging from theoretical computer…
We introduce a generalization of symmetric functions and apply the resulting theory to compute the class in the Grothendieck ring of varieties of the space of geometrically irreducible hypersurfaces of a fixed degree in projective space.
G\"ahler ([3],[4]) introduced the concept of 2-metric as a possible generalization of usual notion of a metric space. In many cases the results obtained in the usual metric spaces and 2-metric spaces are found to be unrelated (see [5]).…
We introduce and study measures and densities (= geometric measures) on differentiable stacks, using a rather straightforward generalization of Haefliger's approach to leaf spaces and to transverse measures for foliations. In general we…
Geographical research was successfully quantified through the quantitative revolution of geography. However, the succeeding theorization of geography encountered insurmountable difficulties. The largest obstacle of geography's theorization…
We first extend Calder\'on's transfer principle to weighted spaces, and then we apply our results to obtain some new weighted inequalities in ergodic theory and ergodic $H^1$ spaces.
Let X be quasi-isometric to either the mapping class group equipped with the word metric, or to Teichmuller space equipped with either the Teichmuller metric or the Weil-Petersson metric. We introduce a unified approach to study the coarse…
We investigate the scale-dependence of Eulerian volume averages of scalar functions on Riemannian three-manifolds. We propose a complementary view of a Lagrangian scaling of variables as opposed to their Eulerian averaging on spatial…
We present an approach to the study of stationary measures placing Tarski's foundational work in this area within a modern category theoretic context. Guiding this work is the notion that measurable spaces equipped with symmetries carry an…
This document offers a concise introduction to the mathematical theory and practical application of the Hausdorff Measure and Dimension. The primary objective is to clarify and rigorously detail the two most common methods used for…
This is an intuitive survey of extrinsic and intrinsic notions of convergence of manifolds complete with pictures of key examples and a discussion of the properties associated with each notion. We begin with a description of three extrinsic…
Diversities are an extension of the concept of a metric space which assign a non-negative value to every finite set of points, rather than just pairs. A general theory of diversities has been developed which exhibits many deep analogies to…
The construction of a multiresolution analysis starts with specification of a scale function. The Fourier transform of this function is defined by an infinite product. The convergence of this product is usually discussed in the context of…
A new generalisation of the notion of space, called "vectoid", is suggested in this work. Basic definitions, examples and properties are presented, as well as a construction of direct product of vectoids. Proofs of more complicated…
Multi-scale structures are prevalent in both natural and artificial systems, as they can handle increasing complexity. Several terms are employed almost interchangeably across various application domains to refer to the multi-scale concept…
H. Weyl's proposal of 1918 for generalizing Riemannian geometry by local scale gauge (later called {\em Weyl geometry}) was motivated by mathematical, philosophical and physical considerations. It was the starting point of his unified field…
We show how to decompose all separable ultrametric spaces into a "Lego" combinations of scaled versions of full simplices. To do this we introduce metric resolutions of large scale metric spaces, which describe how a space can be broken up…

The paper tries to extend results of the classical Descriptive Set Theory to as many countably based T_0-spaces (cb_0-spaces) as possible. Along with extending some central facts about Borel, Luzin and Hausdorff hierarchies of sets we…
This work creates two categories of "array-weighted sets" for the purposes of constructing universal matrix-normed spaces and algebras. These universal objects have the analogous universal property to the free vector space, lifting maps…
