We present a proof of the folklore result that any length metric on $\mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by conformally flat Riemannian distance functions in the uniform distance. This result is used to study Liouville quantum gravity in…

The radius of regularity sometimes spelled as the radius of nonsingularity is a measure providing the distance of a given matrix to the nearest singular one. Despite its possible application strength this measure is still far from being…

This work considers the problem of finding a first-order stationary point of a non-convex function with potentially unbounded smoothness constant using a stochastic gradient oracle. We focus on the class of $(L_0,L_1)$-smooth functions…

In this paper, we establish refined regularity estimates for nonnegative solutions to the fractional Poisson equation $$ (-\Delta)^s u(x) =f(x),\,\, x\in B_1(0). $$ Specifically, we have derived H\"{o}lder, Schauder, and Ln-Lipschitz…

We analyze (the harmonic map representation of) static solutions of the Einstein Equations in dimension three from the point of view of comparison geometry. We find simple monotonic quantities capturing sharply the influence of the Lapse…

Davydov, Moldavskaya, and Zitikis introduced local indices for quantifying the lack of convexity of a \(C^2\) function by measuring the nuclear-norm distance of its Hessian from the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. This paper…

The aim of this work is to establish numerous interrelated gradient estimates in the nonlinear nonlocal setting. First of all, we prove that weak solutions to a class of homogeneous nonlinear nonlocal equations of possibly arbitrarily low…

The proximal gradient algorithm for minimizing the sum of a smooth and a nonsmooth convex function often converges linearly even without strong convexity. One common reason is that a multiple of the step length at each iteration may…

This paper introduces first order Sobolev spaces on certain rectifiable varifolds. These complete locally convex spaces are contained in the generally nonlinear class of generalised weakly differentiable functions and share key functional…

We investigate when the local Lipschitz property of the real-valued function $g(z) = d_Y (f(z),A)$ implies the global Lipschitz property of the mapping $f:X\to Y$ between the metric spaces $(X,d_X)$ and $(Y,d_Y)$. Here, $d_Y(y,A)$ denotes…

We investigate the interplay between the local and asymptotic geometry of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and the geometry of model sets $\mathcal{S} \subset \mathcal{P}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, which approximate $A$ locally uniformly on small…

Geometric quantiles are popular location functionals to build rank-based statistical procedures in multivariate settings. They are obtained through the minimization of a non-smooth convex objective function. As a result, the singularity of…
