Arcs and caps are fundamental structures in finite projective spaces. They can be generalised. Here, a survey is given of some important results on these objects, in particular on generalised ovals and generalised ovoids. The paper also…
Some of recent developments, including recent results, ideas, techniques, and approaches, in the study of degenerate partial differential equations are surveyed and analyzed. Several examples of nonlinear degenerate, even mixed, partial…
We survey old and new conjectures and results on various types of spherical maximal functions, emphasizing problems with a fractal dilation set.
This is a chapter (planned to appear in Wiley's upcoming Encyclopedia of Operations Research and Management Science) describing parts of the theory of convex polyhedra that are particularly important for optimization. The topics include…
The present paper aims to survey known results and to point out the wealth of rather important open problems that are out there.
We introduce and study em (or "emergent"), a lambda calculus style rewrite system inspired from dilations structures in metric geometry. Then we add a new axiom (convex) and explore its consequences. Although (convex) forces commutativity…
This is a very brief report on recent developments on the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system and minimal cones in Euclidean spaces. We shall mainly focus on two directions: (1) Further systematic developments after…
We show how one can do algebraic geometry with respect to the category of simplicial objects in an exact category. As a biproduct, we get a theory of derived analytic geometry.
Comparing and recognizing metrics can be extraordinarily difficult because of the group of diffeomorphisms. Two metrics, that could even be the same, could look completely different in different coordinates. This is the gauge problem. The…
We study a class of complex polynomial equations on a finite graph with a view to understanding how holistic phenomena emerge from combinatorial structure. Particular solutions arise from orthogonal projections of regular polytopes,…
We consider several basic questions pertaining to the geometry of image of a general quadratic map. In general the image of a quadratic map is non-convex, although there are several known classes of quadratic maps when the image is convex.…
We provide new results on the existence of extremal solutions for discontinuous differential equations with a deviated argument which can be either delayed or advanced. The boundary condition is allowed to be discontinuous and to depend…
We present a general convex relaxation approach to study a wide class of Unbalanced Optimal Transport problems for finite non-negative measures with possibly different masses. These are obtained as the lower semicontinuous and convex…
Using a conjecture that allows to approach separable-variables conductivity functions, the elements of the Modern Pseudoanalytic Function Theory are used, for the first time, to numerically solve the Dirichlet boundary value problem of the…
We derive analytical solutions for the uniaxial extension problem for the relaxed micromorphic continuum and other generalized continua. These solutions may help in the identification of material parameters of generalized continua which are…
In this talk we discuss Feynman integrals which are related to elliptic curves. We show with the help of an explicit example that in the set of master integrals more than one elliptic curve may occur. The technique of maximal cuts is a…
We study geometric duality for convex vector optimization problems. For a primal problem with a $q$-dimensional objective space, we formulate a dual problem with a $(q+1)$-dimensional objective space. Consequently, different from an…
We study the algebraic boundary of a convex semi-algebraic set via duality in convex and algebraic geometry. We generalize the correspondence of facets of a polytope to the vertices of the dual polytope to general semi-algebraic convex…
Visual insights into a wide variety of statistical methods, for both didactic and data analytic purposes, can often be achieved through geometric diagrams and geometrically based statistical graphs. This paper extols and illustrates the…
We study convex domino towers using a classic dissection technique on polyominoes to find the generating function and an asymptotic approximation.
