We discuss experiments and observations aimed at testing the possible space-time variability of fundamental physical constants, predicted by the modern theory. Specifically, we consider two of the dimensionless physical parameters which are…
We compare a Gromov hyperbolic metric with the hyperbolic metric in the unit ball or in the upper half space, and prove sharp comparison inequalities between the Gromov hyperbolic metric and some hyperbolic type metrics. We also obtain…
We found a dichotomy involving the unstable Lyapunov exponent of a special Anosov endomorphism of the torus induced by the conjugacy with the linearization. In fact, either every unstable leaf meets on a set of zero measure the set for…
Aberration-corrected electron microscopy can resolve the smallest atomic bond-lengths in nature. However, the high-convergence angles that enable spectacular resolution in 2D have unknown 3D resolution limits for all but the smallest…
Here we study temporo-spatial differentiation problems with respect to sequences of finite unions of balls. We establish several convergence results, as well as construct pathological temporo-spatial differentiations with prescribed sets of…
We show the existence of a limiting distribution $\cD_\cC$ of the adequately normalized discrepancy function of a random translation on a torus relative to a strictly convex set $\cC$. Using a correspondence between the small divisors in…
We prove that the packing dimension of any mean porous Radon measure on $\mathbb R^d$ may be estimated from above by a function which depends on mean porosity. The upper bound tends to $d-1$ as mean porosity tends to its maximum value. This…
We reveal a contradiction in measure-theoretic probability. The contradiction is an "equation" $1/2 = 0$ with its two sides representing probabilities. Unlike known paradoxes in mathematics, the revealed contradiction cannot be explained…
We prove that the range of sequence of vector measures converging widely satisfies a weak lower semicontinuity property, that the convergence of the range implies the strict convergence (convergence of the total variation) and that the…
The approximation of probability measures on compact metric spaces and in particular on Riemannian manifoldsby atomic or empirical ones is a classical task in approximation and complexity theory with a wide range of applications. Instead of…
Atomic-scale mapping of the chemical elements in materials is now possible using aberration-corrected electron microscopes but delocalization and multiple scattering can confound image interpretation. Here we report atomic-resolution…
This paper studies best finitely supported approximations of one-dimensional probability measures with respect to the $L^r$-Kantorovich (or transport) distance, where either the locations or the weights of the approximations' atoms are…
Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two non-degenerate finite signed Borel measures defined on a proper convex cone of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if all convolution powers of $\mu$ and $\nu$ are appropriately equal (and non-zero) on a proper concave…
The result of a physical measurement depends on the timescale of the experimental probe. In solid-state systems, this simple quantum mechanical principle has far-reaching consequences: the interplay of several degrees of freedom close to…
We study the optimal transport problem for $d>2$ discrete measures. This is a linear programming problem on $d$-tensors. It gives a way to compute a "distance" between two sets of discrete measures. We introduce an entropic regularization…
We present a permutation-invariant distance between atomic configurations, defined through a functional representation of atomic positions. This distance enables to directly compare different atomic environments with an arbitrary number of…
We test the consistency of several independent astrophysical measurements of fundamental dimensionless constants. In particular, we compare direct measurements of the fine-structure constant $\alpha$ and the proton-to-electron mass ratio…
We compare the exact and perturbative results in two metrics and show that the spurious effects due to the perturbation method do not survive for physically relevant quantities such as the vacuum expectation value of the stress-energy…
Early results by Borel and Cantelli and Erd\H{o}s and Chung have provided bounds for the measure of a limsup set in terms of measures of its constituent sets and their intersections. Recent work by Beresnevich and Velani \cite{Velanipaper}…
