The approximation of probability measures on compact metric spaces and in particular on Riemannian manifoldsby atomic or empirical ones is a classical task in approximation and complexity theory with a wide range of applications. Instead of…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space. We consider the behavior of probability measures $\mu$ with the property that $$ \int_{X} d(x, y) d\mu(y) \qquad \mbox{is independent of}~x \in X.$$ It appears that such measures, when they exist,…
We prove general upper estimates for the distance between two Borel probability measures in Wasserstein metric in terms of the Fourier transforms of the measures. We work in compact manifolds including the torus, the Euclidean unit sphere,…
We prove a generalisation of the disintegration theorem to the setting of multifunctions between Polish probability spaces. Whereas the classical disintegration theorem guarantees the disintegration of a probability measure along the…
The number of times that we can access a system to extract information via quantum metrology is always finite, and possibly small, and realistic amounts of prior knowledge tend to be moderate. Thus theoretical consistency demands a…
We consider approximating a measure by a parameterized curve subject to length penalization. That is for a given finite positive compactly supported measure $\mu$, for $p \geq 1$ and $\lambda>0$ we consider the functional \[ E(\gamma) =…
The asymptotic behaviour of empirical measures has been studied extensively. In this paper, we consider empirical measures of given subordinated processes on complete (not necessarily compact) and connected Riemannian manifolds with…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle has recently led to general measurement uncertainty relations for quantum systems: incompatible observables can be measured jointly or in sequence only with some unavoidable approximation, which can be…
We establish Euclidean-type lower bounds for the codimension-1 Hausdorff measure of sets that separate points in doubling and linearly locally contractible metric manifolds. This gives a quantitative topological isoperimetric inequality in…
A novel solution to the quantum measurement problem is presented by using a new asymmetric equation that is complementary to the Schr\"odinger equation. Solved for the hydrogen atom, the new equation describes the temporal and spatial…
Quantum metrology is a general term for methods to precisely estimate the value of an unknown parameter by actively using quantum resources. In particular, some classes of entangled states can be used to significantly suppress the…
Quantum ergodicity asserts that almost all infinite sequences of eigenstates of a quantized ergodic system are equidistributed in the phase space. On the other hand, there are might exist exceptional sequences which converge to different…
Estimating the rate of convergence of the empirical measure of an i.i.d. sample to the reference measure is a classical problem in probability theory. Extending recent results of Ambrosio, Stra and Trevisan on 2-dimensional manifolds, in…
The quantization problem aims to find the best possible approximation of probability measures on ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ using finite, discrete measures. The Wasserstein distance is a typical choice to measure the quality of the approximation.…
We study the problem of representing all distances between $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, with arbitrarily small distortion, using as few bits as possible. We give asymptotically tight bounds for this problem, for Euclidean metrics, for…
Measurement is a fundamental notion in the usual approximate quantum mechanics of measured subsystems. Probabilities are predicted for the outcomes of measurements. State vectors evolve unitarily in between measurements and by reduction of…
In this article, we study the geodesic problem in a generalized metric space, in which the distance function satisfies a relaxed triangle inequality $d(x,y)\leq \sigma (d(x,z)+d(z,y))$ for some constant $\sigma \geq 1$, rather than the…
This paper is devoted to investigating the isometric immersion problem of Riemannian manifolds in a high codimension. It has recently been demonstrated that any short immersion from an $n$-dimensional smooth compact manifold into…
Let $T$ be a topological space admitting a compatible proper metric, that is, a locally compact, separable and metrisable space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the non-empty set of all proper metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and…
The Wasserstein distance provides a notion of dissimilarities between probability measures, which has recent applications in learning of structured data with varying size such as images and text documents. In this work, we study the…
