In this paper we use min-max theory to study the existence free boundary minimal hypersurfaces (FBMHs) in compact manifolds with boundary $(M^{n+1}, \partial M, g)$, where $2\leq n\leq 6$. Under the assumption that $g$ is a local maximizer…
Recently the characterization of the compactness in the space $BV([0,1])$ of functions of bounded Jordan variation was given. Here, certain generalizations of this result are given for the spaces of functions of bounded Waterman…
We propose and discuss a new computational method for the numerical approximation of reachable sets for nonlinear control systems. It is based on the support vector machine algorithm and represents the set approximation as a sublevel set of…
The expansion exponent (or expansion constant) for maps was introduced by Schreiber in \cite{s}. In this paper, we introduce the analogous exponent for measures. We shall prove the following results: The expansion exponent of a measurable…
We derive sufficient conditions for sampling with derivatives in shift-invariant spaces generated by a periodic exponential B-spline. The sufficient conditions are expressed with a new notion of measuring the gap between consecutive…
We prove extension-dimensional versions of finite dimensional selection and approximation theorems. As applications, we obtain several results on extension dimension.
For a given class $\mathcal{F}$ of closed sets of a measured metric space $(E,d,\mu)$, we want to find the smallest element $B$ of the class $\mathcal{F}$ such that $\mu(B)\geq 1-\alpha$, for a given $0<\alpha<1$. This set $B$…
We prove that the Reeb space of a proper definable map $f:X \rightarrow Y$ in an arbitrary o-minimal expansion of a real closed field is realizable as a proper definable quotient. This result can be seen as an o-minimal analog of Stein…
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…
After a review of how Boson Fock space (of arbitrary multiplicity) may be approximated by a countable Hilbert-space tensor product (known as toy Fock space) it is shown that vacuum-adapted multiple quantum Wiener integrals of bounded…
We introduce the Variational Holder (VH) bound as an alternative to Variational Bayes (VB) for approximate Bayesian inference. Unlike VB which typically involves maximization of a non-convex lower bound with respect to the variational…
We derive a new estimate of the size of finite sets of points in metric spaces with few distances. The following applications are considered: (1) we improve the Ray-Chaudhuri--Wilson bound of the size of uniform intersecting families of…
Diophantine approximation is traditionally the study of how well real numbers are approximated by rationals. We propose a model for studying Diophantine approximation in an arbitrary totally bounded metric space where the rationals are…
We extend the results of B. Minemyer by showing that any indefinite metric polyhedron (either compact or not) with the vertex degree bounded from above admits an isometric simplicial embedding into a Minkowski space of the lowest possible…
We show that the minimum distance projection in the L1-norm from an interior point onto the boundary of a convex set is achieved by a single, unidimensional projection. Application of this characterization when the convex set is a…
Let $A$ and $X$ be nonempty, bounded and closed subsets of a geodesic metric space $(E,d)$. The minimization (resp. maximization) problem denoted by $\min(A,X)$ (resp. $\max(A,X)$) consists in finding $(a_0,x_0) \in A \times X$ such that…
We establish lower semicontinuity results for perimeter functionals with measure data on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and deduce the existence of minimizers to these functionals with Dirichlet boundary conditions, obstacles, or volume-constraints. In…
We consider four prototypes of variational problems and prove the existence of fractal minimizers through the direct method in the calculus of variations. By design these minimizers are H\"older curves or H\"older parametrizations of…
Consider a finite irreducible Markov chain with invariant distribution $\pi$. We use the inner product induced by $\pi$ and the associated heat operator to simplify and generalize some results related to graph partitioning and the small-set…
