For a fixed, compactly supported probability measure $\mu$ on the $d$-dimensional space $\mathbb{R}^d$, we consider the problem of minimizing the $p^{\mathrm{th}}$-power average distance functional over all compact, connected $\Sigma…
Product measures of dimension $n$ are known to be concentrated in Hamming distance: for any set $S$ in the product space of probability $\epsilon$, a random point in the space, with probability $1-\delta$, has a neighbor in $S$ that is…
We address the problem of curvature estimation from sampled compact sets. The main contribution is a stability result: we show that the gaussian, mean or anisotropic curvature measures of the offset of a compact set K with positive…
We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…
We introduce a continuous analog of the Fourier ratio for compactly supported Borel measures. For a measure \(\mu\) on \(\mathbb{R}^d\) and \(f\in L^2(\mu)\), the Fourier ratio compares \(L^1\) and \(L^2\) norms of a regularized Fourier…
We show that any equicontractive, self-similar measure arising from the IFS of contractions $(S_{j})$, with self-similar set $[0,1]$, admits an isolated point in its set of local dimensions provided the images of $S_{j}(0,1)$ (suitably)…

Quantum metrology theory has up to now focused on the resolution gains obtainable thanks to the entanglement among N probes. Typically, a quadratic gain in resolution is achievable, going from the 1/sqrt(N) of the central limit theorem to…
This paper studies sequential methods for recovery of sparse signals in high dimensions. When compared to fixed sample size procedures, in the sparse setting, sequential methods can result in a large reduction in the number of samples…
The general aim of manifold estimation is reconstructing, by statistical methods, an $m$-dimensional compact manifold $S$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$ (with $m\leq d$) or estimating some relevant quantities related to the geometric properties of $S$.…
Machine learning models with inputs in a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, when implemented on digital computers, generalize, and their generalization gap converges to $0$ at a rate of $c/N^{1/2}$ concerning the sample size $N$. However, the…
We study constrained selection sets of random closed sets defined on a non-atomic probability space. Given a random interval $Y=[y_L,y_U]$ and scalar constraints on the expectation or the median of admissible selections, we characterize the…
In this work, we investigate the possibility of compressing a quantum system to one of smaller dimension in a way that preserves the measurement statistics of a given set of observables. In this process, we allow for an arbitrary amount of…
We study scale-invariant geometric quantities associated with embedded closed curves in Euclidean three-space, with an emphasis on their behavior under optimization within a fixed knot type. Given a Euclidean-invariant and scale-covariant…
We consider statistical learning problems in which data are observed as a set of probability measures. Optimal transport (OT) is a popular tool to compare and manipulate such objects, but its computational cost becomes prohibitive when the…
We present a new approach to approximate nearest-neighbor queries in fixed dimension under a variety of non-Euclidean distances. We are given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, an approximation parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, and a…
Bucklew and Wise (1982) showed that the quantization dimension of an absolutely continuous probability measure on a given Euclidean space is constant and equals the Euclidean dimension of the space, and the quantization coefficient exists…
We introduce sparse random projection, an important dimension-reduction tool from machine learning, for the estimation of discrete-choice models with high-dimensional choice sets. Initially, high-dimensional data are compressed into a…
