We consider a class of non-conformal expanding maps on the $d$-dimensional torus. For an equilibrium measure of an H\"older potential, we prove an analogue of the Central Limit Theorem for the fluctuations of the logarithm of the measure of…

We consider the action of a real reductive group G on a Kaehler manifold Z which is the restriction of a holomorphic action of the complexified group G^C. We assume that the induced action of a compatible maximal compact subgroup U of G^C…

We provide counterexamples showing that uniform laws of large numbers do not hold for subdifferentials under natural assumptions. Our constructions are univariate random Lipschitz functions and bivariate random convex functions with two…

We approach the problem of finding obstructions to curvature distinguished Riemannian metrics by considering Lorentzian metrics to which they are dual in a suitable sense. Obstructions to the latter then yield obstructions to the former.…

Let $u(\cdot,\cdot)$ be the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension of $f.$ The first goal of this article is to establish the fractional trace type inequalities involving the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension $u(\cdot,\cdot)$ of $f.$ In doing so,…

In the context of tvs-cone metric spaces, we prove a Bishop-Phelps and a Caristi's type theorem. These results allow us to prove a fixed point theorem for $(\delta, L)$-weak contraction according to a pseudo Hausdorff metric defined by…

Relying on known results of the Noether theory of symmetries extended to constrained systems, it is shown that there exists an obstruction that prevents certain tangent-space diffeomorphisms to be projectable to phase-space, for generally…

Collections of measures on compact metric spaces form a model category ("data complexes"), whose morphisms are marginalization integrals. The fibrant objects in this category represent collections of measures in which there is a measure on…

The fully compressible semi-geostrophic system is widely used in the modelling of large-scale atmospheric flows. In this paper, we prove rigorously the existence of weak Lagrangian solutions of this system, formulated in the original…

Estimates of densities of convolution semigroups of probability measures are given under specific assumptions on the corresponding L\'evy measure and the L\'evy--Khinchin exponent. The assumptions are satisfied, e.g., by tempered stable…

Using McCann's transportation map, we establish a transport inequality on compact manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. This inequality contains the sharp spectral comparison estimates.

Given a finite collection of probability measures defined on subsets of a measurable space, how can we determine if they are compatible, in the sense that they can be realized as conditional distributions of a single probability measure on…

In the first part of this two-part article, we have introduced and analyzed a multidimensional model, called the 'general tension-reduction' (GTR) model, able to describe general quantum-like measurements with an arbitrary number of…

Suppose A is a finite set equipped with a probability measure P and let M be a ``mass'' function on A. We give a probabilistic characterization of the most efficient way in which A^n can be almost-covered using spheres of a fixed radius. An…

In the field of optimal transport theory, an optimal map is known to be a gradient map of a potential function satisfying cost-convexity. In this paper, the Jacobian determinant of a gradient map is shown to be log-concave with respect to a…

For the solution of the Gauss image problem for pseudo-cones, which can be considered as a measure transport problem for certain measures on the sphere, we give a new proof, using a special case of Kantorovich duality.

In this article we show how ideas, methods and results from optimal transportation can be used to study various aspects of the stationary measuresof Iterated Function Systems equipped with a probability distribution. We recover a classical…

We study the transportation problem on the unit sphere $S^{n-1}$ for symmetric probability measures and the cost function $c(x,y) = \log \frac{1}{\langle x, y \rangle}$. We calculate the variation of the corresponding Kantorovich functional…

This note contains some observations on abelian convexity theorems. Convexity along an orbit is established in a very general setting using Kempf-Ness functions. This is applied to give short proofs of the Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg theorem…

We study metric projections onto cones in the Wasserstein space of probability measures, defined by stochastic orders. Dualities for backward and forward projections are established under general conditions. Dual optimal solutions and their…
