We study measure preserving systems, called Furstenberg systems, that model the statistical behavior of sequences defined by smooth functions with at most polynomial growth. Typical examples are the sequences $(n^\frac{3}{2})$,…
With the help of the recently introduced parametric geometry of numbers by W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer, we prove a strong version of a conjecture of Schmidt concerning the successive minima of a lattice.
The convex and metric structures underlying probabilistic physical theories are generally described in terms of base normed vector spaces. According to a recent proposal, the purely geometrical features of these spaces are appropriately…
We consider random walks on semisimple Lie groups where the support of the step distribution generates (as a group) a Zariski dense discrete subgroup of infinite covolume. When the semisimple Lie group has property (T), we show that the…
We consider the Einstein deformations of the reducible rank two symmetric spaces of noncompact type. If $M$ is the product of any two real, complex, quaternionic or octonionic hyperbolic spaces, we prove that the family of nearby Einstein…
In this essay, we argue that certain aspects of the measurement require revision in Quantum Gravity. Using entropic arguments, we propose that the number of measurement outcomes and the accuracy (or the range) of the measurement are limited…
We prove that the Pauli representation of the quantum permutation algebra $A_s(4)$ is faithful. This provides the second known model for a free quantum algebra. We use this model for performing some computations, with the main result that…
Let $n$ be an odd positive integer. It was proved by Brass and Schmeisser that for every quadrature $$\mathcal{Q}=\alpha_1f(x_1)+\dots+\alpha_mf(x_m),$$ (with positive weights) of order at least $n+1$ and for every $n-$convex function $f,$…
Considering the simultaneous measurement of non-commuting observables, we define a geometric measure for the degree of non-commuting behavior of quantum measurements coming from the initial and final states of the measurements. The…
New partial results are obtained related to the following old problem of Erd\"os: for any infinite set $X$ of real numbers to show that there is always a measurable (or, equivalently, closed) subset of reals of positive Lebesgue measure…
In this paper we investigate three unsolved conjectures in geometric combinatorics, namely Falconer's distance set conjecture, the dimension of Furstenburg sets, and Erdos's ring conjecture. We formulate natural $\delta$-discretized…
Combining quantum and Bayesian principles leads to optimality in metrology, but the optimisation equations involved are often hard to solve. This work mitigates this problem with a novel class of measurement strategies for quantities…
While finite non-commutative operator systems lie at the foundation of quantum measurement, they are also tools for understanding geometric iterations as used in the theory of iterated function systems (IFSs) and in wavelet analysis. Key is…
The Everett-interpretation description of isolated measurements, i.e., measurements involving interaction between a measuring apparatus and a measured system but not interaction with the environment, is shown to be unambiguous, claims in…
A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that for any infinite set $A \subseteq \mathbb R$, there exists $E \subseteq \mathbb R$ of positive Lebesgue measure that does not contain any nontrivial affine copy of $A$. The conjecture remains open for…
Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…
We prove some geometric properties of sets in the first Heisenberg group whose Heisenberg Hausdorff dimension is the minimal or maximal possible in relation to their Euclidean one and the corresponding Hausdorff measures are positive and…
J.C.Lagarias (2000) conjectured that if $\mu$ is a complex measure on p-dimensional Euclidean space with a uniformly discrete support and its spectrum (Fourier transform) is also a measure with a uniformly discrete support, then the support…
Geometric Quantum Mechanics is a novel and prospecting approach motivated by the belief that our world is ultimately geometrical. At the heart of that is a quantity called Quantum Geometric Tensor (or Fubini-Study metric), which is a…
Given an infinite connected graph, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges. An open question attributed to Furstenberg is whether there exists a two-sided infinite geodesic in first passage…
