Conditioning, the central operation in Bayesian statistics, is formalised by the notion of disintegration of measures. However, due to the implicit nature of their definition, constructing disintegrations is often difficult. A folklore…
A measurable map between measure spaces is shown to have bounded compression if and only if its image via the measure-algebra functor is Lipschitz-continuous w.r.t. the measure-algebra distances. This provides a natural interpretation of…
In this paper, we address several interconnected problems in the theory of harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we present necessary background and establish one of the main results of the paper: a criterion characterizing…
We describe the space of measured foliations induced on a compact Riemann surface by meromorphic quadratic differentials. We prove that any such foliation is realized by a unique such differential $q$ if we prescribe, in addition, the…
Borel probability measures living on metric spaces are fundamental mathematical objects. There are several meaningful distance functions that make the collection of the probability measures living on a certain space a metric space. We are…
Our results concern geometry of a manifold endowed with a pair of complementary orthogonal distributions (plane fields) and a time-dependent Riemannian metric. The work begins with formulae concerning deformations of geometric quantities as…
We consider the horospherical foliation on any invariant subvariety in the moduli space of translation surfaces. This foliation can be described dynamically as the strong unstable foliation for the geodesic flow on the invariant subvariety,…
We introduce and study a variant of the Wasserstein distance on the space of probability measures, specially designed to deal with measures whose support has a dendritic, or treelike structure with a particular direction of orientation. Our…
We consider problems of estimation of structured covariance matrices, and in particular of matrices with a Toeplitz structure. We follow a geometric viewpoint that is based on some suitable notion of distance. To this end, we overview and…
We study unimodular measures on the space $\mathcal M^d$ of all pointed Riemannian $d$-manifolds. Examples can be constructed from finite volume manifolds, from measured foliations with Riemannian leaves, and from invariant random subgroups…
A meromorphic quadratic differential with poles of order two, on a compact Riemann surface, induces a measured foliation on the surface, with a spiralling structure at any pole that is determined by the complex residue of the differential…
We study correlation measures for complex systems. First, we investigate some recently proposed measures based on information geometry. We show that these measures can increase under local transformations as well as under discarding…
The asymptotic behaviour of empirical measures has plenty of studies. However, the research on conditional empirical measures is limited. Being the development of Wang \cite{eW1}, under the quadratic Wasserstein distance, we investigate the…
We introduce and study measures and densities (= geometric measures) on differentiable stacks, using a rather straightforward generalization of Haefliger's approach to leaf spaces and to transverse measures for foliations. In general we…
In the context of locally constant skew-products over the shift with circle fiber maps we introduce the notion of measures with periodic repetitive pattern, inspired by \cite{GorIlyKleNal:05} and which includes the non-hyperbolic measures…
The theory of geometric structures on a surface with nonempty boundary can be developed by using a decomposition of such a surface into hexagons, in the same way as the theory of geometric structures on a surface without boundary is…
The fabric of porous and fractured media contains solid regions (grains) and voids. The space conducting fluids is a system of connected voids with variable geometries. Relative to the grain sizes, the voids can be voluminous with three…
We partly extend the localisation technique from convex geometry to the multiple constraints setting. For a given $1$-Lipschitz map $u\colon\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m$, $m\leq n$, we define and prove the existence of a partition of…
We give a survey of the approaches to classifying foliations, starting with the Haefliger classifying spaces and the various results and examples about the secondary classes of foliations. Various dynamical properties of foliations are…
In this paper we develop a generalization of foliated manifolds in the context of metric spaces. In particular we study dendritations of surfaces that are defined as maximal atlases of compatible upper semicontinuous local decompositions…
