The authors compute distances between arbitrary elements of Lie groups SU(2) and SO(3) for special left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics $\rho$ and $d$. To compute distances for the second metric, we essentially use the fact that canonical…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with kernel $F$ and complement $H$ such that the fixed-point subgroup of $F$ is trivial: $C_G(F)=1$. In this situation various properties of $G$ are shown to be…

This report is dedicated to the construction and analysis of so-called Generalized Impedance Boundary Conditions (GIBCs) used in electromagnetic scattering problems from imperfect conductors as higher order approximations of a perfect…

Let a compact Lie group act ergodically on a unital $C^*$-algebra $A$. We consider several ways of using this structure to define metrics on the state space of $A$. These ways involve length functions, norms on the Lie algebra, and Dirac…

We solve explicitly the geodesic equation for a wide class of (pseudo)-Riemannian homogeneous manifolds (G/H,m), including those with G compact, as well as non-compact semisimple Lie groups, under a simple algebraic condition for the metric…

We propose a method for inferring the conditional independence graph (CIG) of a high-dimensional Gaussian vector time series (discrete-time process) from a finite-length observation. By contrast to existing approaches, we do not rely on a…

In this paper we further develop the ideas from Geometric Function Theory initially introduced in [arXiv:2206.13206], to derive capacity estimate in metastability for arbitrary configurations. The novelty of this paper is twofold. First,…

We apply the method of controlled Lagrangians by potential shaping to Euler--Poincar\'e mechanical systems with broken symmetry. We assume that the configuration space is a general semidirect product Lie group $\mathsf{G} \ltimes V$ with a…

The reconstruction of sparse signal is an active area of research. Different from a typical i.i.d. assumption, this paper considers a non-independent prior of group structure. For this more practical setup, we propose EM-aided HyGEC, a new…

We propose a geometric integrator to numerically approximate the flow of Lie systems. The key is a novel procedure that integrates the Lie system on a Lie group intrinsically associated with a Lie system on a general manifold via a Lie…

Is gauge symmetry merely a redundancy in our description, or does it carry a deeper information-theoretic significance? Quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) show that redundancy can serve as a resource for protecting information against…

We consider linear codes over a field in which the error values are restricted to a subgroup of its unit group. This scenario captures Lee distance codes as well as codes over the Gaussian or Eisenstein integers. Codes correcting restricted…
