A central challenge in quantum metrology is identifying optimal measurements that saturate the quantum Cramer-Rao bound under realistic constraints, e.g., local measurements. We show that symmetries of the probe state provide a general…

We investigate quantization coefficients for self-similar probability measures \mu on limit sets which are generated by systems S of infinitely many contractive similarities and by probabilistic vectors. The theory of quantization…

Given a compact metric space (X,d) equipped with a non-atomic, probability measure m and a real, positive decreasing function p we consider a `natural' class of limsup subsets La(p) of X. The classical limsup sets of `well approximable'…

In this work, we provide non-asymptotic bounds for the average speed of convergence of the empirical measure in the law of large numbers, in Wasserstein distance. We also consider occupation measures of ergodic Markov chains. One motivation…

In 1987, I. Labuda proved a general representation theorem that, as a special case, shows that the topology of local convergence in measure is the minimal topology on Orlicz spaces and $L_{\infty}$. Minimal topologies connect with the…

This paper concerns the convergence of empirical measures in high dimensions. We propose a new class of probability metrics and show that under such metrics, the convergence is free of the curse of dimensionality (CoD). Such a feature is…

We investigate the influence that $s$-dimensional lower and upper Hausdorff densities have on the geometry of a Radon measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$ when $s$ is a real number between $0$ and $n$. This topic in geometric measure theory has been…

The Schrodinger equation is incomplete, inherently unable to explain the collapse of the wavefunction caused by measurement; a fundamental issue known as the quantum measurement problem. Quantum mechanics is generally constrained by the…

We establish a structure theorem for minimizing sequences for the isoperimetric problem on noncompact $\mathsf{RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathcal{H}^N)$. Under the sole (necessary) assumption that the measure of unit balls is…
