A $\Gamma$-convergence analysis is used to perform a 3D-2D dimension reduction of variational problems with linear growth. The adopted scaling gives rise to a nonlinear membrane model which, because of the presence of higher order external…
Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth, closed, oriented, $(n-1)$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We show that there exist arbitrarily small perturbations $\Gamma'$ of $\Gamma$ with the property that minimizing integral $n$-currents with…
We extend Helgason's classical definition of a generalized Radon transform, defined for a pair of homogeneous spaces of an lcsc group $G$, to a broader setting in which one of the spaces is replaced by a possibly non-homogeneous dynamical…
Among all plastic deformations of the gravitational Lorentz vacuum \cite{wr1} a particular role is being played by conformal deformations. These are conveniently described by using the homogeneous space for the conformal group…
We introduce and study a new Radon-like transform that averages projected differential p-forms in R^n over affine (n-k)-planes. We then prove an explicit inversion formula for our transform on the space of rapidly-decaying smooth p-forms.…
Gradient flows of the Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence, such as the Fokker--Planck equation and Stein Variational Gradient Descent, evolve a distribution toward a target density known only up to a normalizing constant. We introduce new…
Let $\bbK=\mathbb R, \mathbb C, \mathbb H$ be the field of real, complex or quaternionic numbers and $M_{p, q}(\bbK)$ the vector space of all $p\times q$-matrices. Let $X$ be the matrix unit ball in $M_{n-r, r}(\bbK)$ consisting of…
Tomograms, a generalization of the Radon transform to arbitrary pairs of non-commuting operators, are positive bilinear transforms with a rigorous probabilistic interpretation which provide a full characterization of the signal and are…
The aim of this paper is to present inversion methods for the classical Radon transform which is defined on a family of $k$ dimensional planes in $\Bbb R^{n}$ where $1\leq k\leq n - 2$. For these values of $k$ the dimension of the set…
There is a surprising occurrence of some minus signs in the isomorphisms produced in the well-known technique of dimension shifting in calculating derived functors in homological algebra. We explicitly determine these signs. Getting these…
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…
The question of when the derived category of a ring satisfies Brown--Adams representability is revisited via studying the transfer of pure homological dimension along definable functors: it is shown that, for any ring, the pure global…
We study a Radon-like transform that takes functions on the Grassmannian of $j$-dimensional affine planes in $\Bbb R ^n$ to functions on a similar manifold of $k$-dimensional planes by integration over the set of all $j$-planes that meet a…
A dimension group is a partially ordered countable group such that (1) every finite subset is contained in an ordered subgroup which is a finite direct power of Z and (2) the group has an order unit i.e. a positive element u such that every…
Anomalous transport in one dimensional translation invariant Hamiltonian systems with short range interactions, is shown to belong in general to the KPZ universality class. Exact asymptotic forms for density-density and current-current time…

We show how certain diffeomorphism-invariant functionals on differential forms in dimensions 6,7 and 8 generate in a natural way special geometrical structures in these dimensions: metrics of holonomy G2 and Spin(7), metrics with weak…
It is shown that the local coupling of a higher dimensional graviton to a closed degenerate two-form produces dimensional reduction by spontaneous breakdown of extra-dimensional translational symmetry. Four dimensional Poincar\'e invariance…
For electron transport in parallel-plane semiconducting structures, a model is developed that unifies ballistic and diffusive transport and thus generalizes the Drude model. The unified model is valid for arbitrary magnitude of the mean…
We consider a weighted family of $n$ parallelly transported hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensioinal affine space and describe the characteristic variety of the Gauss-Manin differential equations for associated hypergeometric integrals. The…
