Curvature properties of convex objects, such as strong convexity, are important in designing and analyzing convex optimization algorithms in the Hilbertian or Riemannian settings. In the case of the Hilbertian setting, strongly convex sets…

We use a new method to give conditions for the existence of a local isometric immersion of a Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$, for a given $n$ and $k$. These equate to the (local) existence of a $k$-tuple of scalar fields…
