Problems related to projections on closed convex cones are frequently encountered in optimization theory and related fields. To study these problems, various unifying ideas have been introduced, including asymmetric vector-valued norms and…
For polyhedral convex cones in ${\mathbb R}^d$, we give a proof for the conic kinematic formula for conic curvature measures, which avoids the use of characterization theorems. For the random cones defined as typical cones of an isotropic…
We define new geometric constants for normed planes, determine their optimal values, and characterize types of planes for which these optimal values are attained. Relations of these constants to several topics, such as areas and distances…
It is known that degrees of basic relative invariants of homogeneous open convex cones of rank $r$ are less than or equal to $2^{r-1}$. In this article, we show that there exists a homogeneous cone of rank $r$ one of whose basic relative…
Curvature and torsion of linear transports along paths in, respectively, vector bundles and the tangent bundle to a differentiable manifold are defined and certain their properties are derived.
In this note on coarse geometry we revisit coarse homotopy. We prove that coarse homotopy indeed is an equivalence relation, and this in the most general context of abstract coarse structures. We introduce (in a geometric way) coarse…
We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
Various line fields naturally arise on surfaces in both physical and biological contexts, and generic singularities frequently appear in the form of 1-prong (thorn-like) and 3-prong (tripod-like) configurations, which can be modeled by…
In this work we deal with the so-called path convexities, defined over special collections of paths. For example, the collection of the shortest paths in a graph is associated with the well-known geodesic convexity, while the collection of…
Porous and heterogeneous materials are found in many applications from composites, membranes, chemical reactors, and other engineered materials to biological matter and natural subsurface structures. In this work we propose an integrated…
Using the path lattice cohomology we provide a conceptual topological characterization of the geometric genus for certain complex normal surface singularities with rational homology sphere links, which is uniformly valid for all…
We investigate linear parabolic maps on the torus. In a generic case these maps are non-invertible and discontinuous. Although the metric entropy of these systems is equal to zero, their dynamics is non-trivial due to folding of the image…
Geometric torsions are torsions of acyclic complexes of vector spaces which consist of differentials of geometric quantities assigned to the elements of a manifold triangulation. We use geometric torsions to construct invariants for a…
Often it is possible to equip the space of all cone geodesics of a strongly convex cone structure with the structure of a smooth contact manifold. This generalizes the analogous notions for the space of light rays of a Lorentzian spacetime.…
We study the regularity of optimal transport maps between convex domains with quadratic cost. For nondegenerate $C^{\alpha}$-densities, we prove $C^{1, 1-\varepsilon}$-regularity of the potentials up to the boundary. If in addition the…
A cone structure on a complex manifold $M$ is a closed submanifold $\mathcal C \subset \mathbb P TM$ of the projectivized tangent bundle which is submersive over $M$. A conic connection on $\mathcal C$ specifies a distinguished family of…
Coordination geometries describe how the neighbours of a central particle are arranged around it. Such geometries can be thought to lie in an abstract topological space; a model of this space could provide a mathematical basis for…
The current paper is devoted to the study of integral curves of constant type in parabolic homogeneous spaces. We construct a canonical moving frame bundle for such curves and give the criterium when it turns out to be a Cartan connection.…
We propose a new family of natural generalizations of the pentagram map from 2D to higher dimensions and prove their integrability on generic twisted and closed polygons. In dimension $d$ there are $d-1$ such generalizations called dented…
We provide a theory of manifold-valued rough paths of bounded 3 > p-variation, which we do not assume to be geometric. Rough paths are defined in charts, and coordinate-free (but connection-dependent) definitions of the rough integral of…
