We consider the systems of diffusion-orthogonal polynomials, defined in the work [1] of D. Bakry, S. Orevkov and M. Zani and (particularly) explain why these systems with boundary of maximal possible degree should always come from the…
We establish dimensional thresholds for dot product sets associated with compact subsets of translated paraboloids. Specifically, we prove that when the dimension of such a subset exceeds $ \frac{5}{4} = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{4} $ in…
Light can exert forces on objects, promising to propel a meter-scale lightsail to near the speed of light. The key to address many challenges in such an ambition hinges on the nanostructuring of lightsails to tailor their optical scattering…
The problem of finding the maximum-weight, planar subgraph of a finite, simple graph with nonnegative real edge weights is well known in industrial and electrical engineering, systems biology, sociology and finance. As the problem is known…
The embedded discontinuous Galerkin (EDG) method by Cockburn et al. [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 2009, 47(4), 2686-2707] is obtained from the hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method by changing the space of the Lagrangian multiplier from…
This paper focuses on $\alpha$-divergence minimisation methods for Variational Inference. More precisely, we are interested in algorithms optimising the mixture weights of any given mixture model, without any information on the underlying…
We investigate the question of tightness of linear programming (LP) relaxation for finding a maximum weight independent set (MWIS) in sparse random weighted graphs. We show that an edge-based LP relaxation is asymptotically tight for…
Dimensionality is a major concern in analyzing large data sets. Some well known dimension reduction methods are for example principal component analysis (PCA), invariant coordinate selection (ICS), sliced inverse regression (SIR), sliced…
We consider a large mass limit of the non-local isoperimetric problem with a repulsive Yukawa potential in two space dimensions. In this limit, the non-local term concentrates on the boundary, resulting in the existence of a critical regime…
The eikonal phase which determines the Regge limit of the gravitational scattering amplitude of a light particle off a heavy one in Minkowski spacetimes admits an expansion in the ratio of the Schwarzschild radius of the heavy particle to…
In high-contrast composites, the electric (or stress) field may exhibit significant amplification in the narrow region between inclusions. The behavior of the solution depends on the distance $\epsilon$ between the inclusions, which tends…
The Douglas-Rachford reflection method is a general purpose algorithm useful for solving the feasibility problem of finding a point in the intersection of finitely many sets. In this chapter we demonstrate that applied to a specific…
This paper is devoted to the variational inequality problems. We consider two classes of problems, the first is classical constrained variational inequality and the second is the same problem with functional (inequality type) constraints.…
Let $G = (V,E)$ be an undirected graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ and vertex conductance $\Psi^*(G)$. We show that there exists a symmetric, stochastic matrix $P$, with off-diagonal entries supported on $E$, whose spectral gap…
Diffusion models have become the go-to method for large-scale generative models in real-world applications. These applications often involve data distributions confined within bounded domains, typically requiring ad-hoc thresholding…
This paper discusses the theory and numerical method of two-scale analysis for the multiscale Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in composite ferromagnetic materials. The novelty of this work can be summarized in three aspects: Firstly, the…
Almost four decades ago, Bergman and Milton independently showed that the isotropic effective electric permittivity of a two-phase composite material with a given volume fraction is constrained to lie within lens-shaped regions in the…
We consider infinite weighted graphs $G$, i.e., sets of vertices $V$, and edges $E$ assumed countable infinite. An assignment of weights is a positive symmetric function $c$ on $E$ (the edge-set), conductance. From this, one naturally…
The design of numerical boundary conditions is a challenging problem that has been tackled in different ways depending on the nature of the problem and the numerical scheme used to solve it. In this paper we present a new weighted…
The use of global displacement basis functions to solve boundary-value problems in linear elasticity is well established. No prior work uses a global stress tensor basis for such solutions. We present two such methods for solving stress…
