Multivariate functions encountered in high-dimensional uncertainty quantification problems often vary most strongly along a few dominant directions in the input parameter space. We propose a gradient-based method for detecting these…
We develop a general mathematical framework for variational problems where the unknown function assumes values in the space of probability measures on some metric space. We study weak and strong topologies and define a total variation…
We outline an algorithm for construction of functional bases of absolute invariants under the rotation group for sets of rank 2 tensors and vectors in the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. We will use our earlier results for symmetric…
This paper provides a discrete Poincar\'e inequality in $n$ space dimensions on a simplex $K$ with explicit constants. This inequality bounds the norm of the piecewise derivative of functions with integral mean zero on $K$ and all integrals…
We extend a Poincar\'{e}-type inequality for functions with large zero-sets by Jiang and Lin to fractional Sobolev spaces. As a consequence, we obtain a Hausdorff dimension estimate on the size of zero sets for fractional Sobolev functions…
We answer a number of open problems in frame theory concerning the decomposition of frames into linearly independent and/or spanning sets. We prove that in finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, Parseval frames with norms bounded away from 1…
For a connected simply connected semisimple algebraic group $G$ we prove existence of invariant tensors in tensor powers of rational $G$-modules and establish relations between existence of such invariant tensors and stability of diagonal…
According to the theory of functional inequalities, a non-symmetric Markov semigroup has better properties than the corresponding symmetric one. For instance, there exist non-symmetric Markov semigroups which are hypercontractive (and thus…

In this article we study generalization of the classical Talagrand transport-entropy inequality in which the Wasserstein distance is replaced by the entropic transportation cost. This class of inequalities has been introduced in the recent…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for stochastic invariance of closed subsets in Hilbert spaces for solutions to infinite-dimensional stochastic differential equations (SDEs) under mild assumptions on the coefficients. Our…
Let $\MM$ be the space of finite measures on a Locally compact Polish space, and let $\BG$ be the Gamma distribution on $\MM$ with intensity measure $\nu\in \MM$. Let $\nn^{ext}$ be the extrinsic derivative with tangent bundle $T\MM=…
We consider the deviation inequalities for the sums of independent $d$ by $d$ random matrices, as well as rank one random tensors. Our focus is on the non-isotropic case and the bounds that do not depend explicitly on the dimension $d$, but…

Motivated by Talagrand's conjecture on regularization properties of the natural semigroup on the Boolean hypercube, and in particular its continuous analogue involving regularization properties of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup acting on…
Higher order tensor inversion is possible for even order. We have shown that a tensor group endowed with the Einstein (contracted) product is isomorphic to the general linear group of degree $n$. With the isomorphic group structures, we…

The class of Divergence-free symmetric tensors is ubiquitous in Continuum Mechanics. We show its invariance under projective transformations of the independent variables. This action, which preserves the positiveness, extends Sophus Lie's…
