We study convexity properties of distance functions in Finsler unitary groups, where the Finsler structure is defined by translation of the $p$-Schatten norm on the Lie algebra. As a result we prove the existence of circumcenters for sets…

We analyze a real one-parameter family of quasiconformal deformations of a hyperbolic rational map known as {\em spinning}. We show that under fairly general hypotheses, the limit of spinning either exists and is unique, or else converges…

The entanglement entropy corresponding to a smooth region in general three-dimensional CFTs contains a constant universal term, $-F \subset S_{\text{EE}}$. For a disk region, $F|_{\rm disk}\equiv F_0$ coincides with the free energy on…

We show a general phenomenon of the constrained functional value for densities satisfying general convexity conditions, which generalizes the observation in Bobkov and Madiman (2011) that the entropy per coordinate in a log-concave random…

Analytic self-maps of the unit disc whose hyperbolic derivative is uniformly bounded by a constant smaller than one, are called contractive. We describe these maps in terms of their Aleksandrov-Clark measures and in terms of their…

Let $q$ be a nondegenerate quadratic form on $V$. Let $X\subset V$ be invariant for the action of a Lie group $G$ contained in $SO(V,q)$. For any $f\in V$ consider the function $d_f$ from $X$ to $C$ defined by $d_f(x)=q(f-x)$. We show that…

We derive a new criterion for a real-valued function $u$ to be in the Sobolev space $W^{1,2}(\R^n)$. This criterion consists of comparing the value of a functional $\int f(u)$ with the values of the same functional applied to convolutions…

Let u be a subharmonic function in D={|z|<1}. There exist an absolute constant C and an analytic function f in D such that \int_D |u(z)-log|f(z)|| dm(z)<C where m denotes the plane Lebesgue measure. We also consider uniform approximation.

A closed surface evolving under mean curvature flow becomes singular in finite time. Near the singularity, the surface resembles a self-shrinker, a surface that shrinks by dilations under mean curvature flow. If the singularity is modeled…

Let $X$ be a topological space and $\mu$ be a nonatomic finite measure on a $\sigma$-algebra $\Sigma$ containing the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of $X$. We say $\mu$ is weakly outer regular, if for every $A \in \Sigma$ and $\epsilon>0$, there…

Let $f$ be a function in the Eremenko-Lyubich class $\mathcal{B}$, and let $U$ be an unbounded, forward invariant Fatou component of $f$. We relate the number of singularities of an inner function associated to $f|_U$ with the number of…

The entanglement entropy of spacetime regions $A$ in odd-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) contains a universal constant term, $(-1)^{\frac{d-1}{2}}F(A)$. This quantity can be robustly defined by considering the mutual information…

Given a compact surface with boundary, we introduce a family of functionals on the space of its Riemannian metrics, defined via eigenvalues of a Steklov-type problem. We prove that each such functional is uniformly bounded from above, and…
