We compare two singularly perturbed elliptic systems modeling partially phase segregation. Although the formulations are fundamentally different, we prove that their limiting configurations have identical free boundaries. The result shows…

For every filter $\mathcal F$ on $\mathbb N$, we introduce and study corresponding uniform $\mathcal F$-boundedness principles for locally convex topological vector spaces. These principles generalise the classical uniform boundedness…

We consider the maximal number of arbitrary points in a special fibre that can be simultaneously approached by points in one sequence of general fibres. Several results about this topological invariant and their applications describe the…

Constrained coding is a fundamental field in coding theory that tackles efficient communication through constrained channels. While channels with fixed constraints have a general optimal solution, there is increasing demand for parametric…

We determine the equilibria of a rigid loop in the plane, subject to the constraints of fixed length and fixed enclosed area. Rigidity is characterized by an energy functional quadratic in the curvature of the loop. We find that the area…

Directional fields, including unit vector, line, and cross fields, are essential tools in the geometry processing toolkit. The topology of directional fields is characterized by their singularities. While singularities play an important…

We examine the metrics that arise when a finite set of points is embedded in the real line, in such a way that the distance between each pair of points is at least 1. These metrics are closely related to some other known metrics in the…

We consider an optimal transport problem with backward martingale constraint. The objective function is given by the scalar product of a pseudo-Euclidean space $S$. We show that the supremums over maps and plans coincide, provided that the…

In this paper, we present a unified analysis of matrix completion under general low-dimensional structural constraints induced by {\em any} norm regularization. We consider two estimators for the general problem of structured matrix…

We investigate the structure of $\omega$-limit (resp. $\alpha$-limit) sets for a monotone map $f$ on a regular curve $X$. %Let $X$ be a regular curve and let $f: X\longrightarrowX$ be a monotone map. We show that for any $x\in X$ (resp. for…
