We study time- and parameter-dependent ordinary differential equations in the geometric setting of vector fields and their flows. Various degrees of regularities in state are considered, including Lipschitz, finitely diferentiable, smooth,…

Probability functions appear in constraints of many optimization problems in practice and have become quite popular. Understanding their first-order properties has proven useful, not only theoretically but also in implementable algorithms,…

Two flows on a finite-dimensional normed space $X$ are Lipschitz equivalent if some homeomorphism $h$ of $X$ that is bi-Lipschitz near the origin preserves all orbits, i.e., $h$ maps each orbit onto an orbit. A complete classification by…

We show that any open set that is a finite distance away from a Lipschitz subgraph will become a Lipschitz subgraph after flowing under fractional mean curvature flow for a finite, universal time. Our proof is quantitative and inherently…

We prove a version of the implicit function theorem for Lipschitz mappings $f:\mathbb{R}^{n+m}\supset A \to X$ into arbitrary metric spaces. As long as the pull-back of the Hausdorff content $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}^n$ by $f$ has positive…

In Euclidean space of dimension 2 or 3, we study a minimum time problem associated with a system of real-analytic vector fields satisfying H\"ormander's bracket generating condition, where the target is a nonempty closed set. We show that,…

Flow Matching, a promising approach in generative modeling, has recently gained popularity. Relying on ordinary differential equations, it offers a simple and flexible alternative to diffusion models, which are currently the…

We consider the fractional mean curvature flow of entire Lipschitz graphs. We provide regularity results, and we study the long time asymptotics of the flow. In particular we show that in a suitable rescaled framework, if the initial graph…

These notes present a basic survey on Transportation cost spaces (aka Lipschitzfree spaces, Wasserstein spaces) and their bi-Lipschitz and linear embeddings into $L_1$ spaces. To make these notes as self-contained as possible, we added the…

For a $k$-dimensional Brakke flow on an open subset $U \subset \mathbf{R}^{n}$, over an open time interval $J$, we prove the existence of a canonical space-time-Grassmann measure $\lambda$, over $J \times \mathbf{G}_{k} (U)$, and give a…

The property of measure concentration is that an arbitrary 1-Lipschitz function $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ on an mm-space $X$ is almost close to a constant function. In this paper, we prove that if such a concentration phenomenon arise, then any…

The exponential map that characterises the flows of vector fields is the key in understanding the basic structural attributes of control systems in geometric control theory. However, this map does not exists due to the lack of completeness…

We give a new proof of the Caffarelli contraction theorem, which states that the Brenier optimal transport map sending the standard Gaussian measure onto a uniformly log-concave probability measure is Lipschitz. The proof combines a recent…

Let $\Gamma$ be a closed subset of a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $\geq 2$, let $f: M \to N$ be a Lipschitz map to a complete Riemannian manifold $N$, and let $\psi$ be a continuous function which dominates the local…

We establish kinetic Hamiltonian flows in density space embedded with the $L^2$-Wasserstein metric tensor. We derive the Euler-Lagrange equation in density space, which introduces the associated Hamiltonian flows. We demonstrate that many…

Recently, Lobb and Nijhoff initiated the study of variational (Lagrangian) structure of discrete integrable systems from the perspective of multi-dimensional consistency. In the present work, we follow this line of research and develop a…

We study expansion/contraction properties of some common classes of mappings of the Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^n, n\ge 2\,,$ with respect to the distance ratio metric. The first main case is the behavior of M\"obius transformations of the…

This paper deals with the early results of a new model of pedestrian flow, conceived within a measure-theoretical framework. The modeling approach consists in a discrete-time Eulerian macroscopic representation of the system via a family of…
