In this paper, we study the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-improving bounds, i.e., $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R}^2)$ estimates, of the maximal function $M_{\gamma}$ along a plane curve $(t,\gamma(t))$, where…
We consider paths of steepest descent, in the complex plane, for the norm of a non-constant one variable polynomial $f$. We show that such paths, starting from a zero of the logarithmic derivative of $f$ and ending in a root of $f$, draw a…
We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for embeddings of integral Lipschitz classes Lip(\alpha; p) into classes \Lambda BV of functions of bounded \Lambda-variation.
We formulate a general shape and topology optimization problem in structural optimization by using a phase field approach. This problem is considered in view of well-posedness and we derive optimality conditions. We relate the diffuse…
The signature of a $p$-weakly geometric rough path summarises a path up to a generalised notion of reparameterisation. The quotient space of equivalence classes on which the signature is constant yields unparameterised path space. The study…
Let $(M,g)$ be an incomplete Riemannian manifold of finite volume and let $2\leq p<\infty$. In the first part of this paper we prove that under certain assumptions the inclusion of the space of $L^p$-differential forms into that of…
We provide a combinatorial approach to counting the number of spanning trees at the $n$-th layer of a branched $\mathbb{Z}_p$-cover of a finite connected graph $\mathsf{X}$. Our method achieves in explaining how the position of the ramified…
A 1d random geometric graph (1d RGG) is built by joining a random sample of $n$ points from an interval of the real line with probability $p$. We count the number of $k$-hop paths between two vertices of the graph in the case where the…
We introduce a notion of distributional $k$-forms on $d$-dimensional manifolds which can be integrated against suitably regular $k$-submanifolds. Our approach combines ideas from Whitney's geometric integration [Whi57] with those of sewing…
In this article we will prove that if the continuous closed curve $\gamma : [0, 1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$ has finite $p$-variation with $p < 2$, then $(\iint\limits_{\mathbb{R}^2}|\eta(\gamma, (x, y))|^q \,dx \,dy)^{1/q} \le…
We provide an account for the existence and uniqueness of solutions to rough differential equations under the framework of controlled rough paths. The case when the driving path is $\beta$-H\"older continuous, for $\beta>1/3$, is widely…
We give the first properties of independent Bernoulli percolation, for oriented graphs on the set of vertices $\Z^d$ that are translation-invariant and may contain loops. We exhibit some examples showing that the critical probability for…
Path integrals for particles in curved spaces can be used to compute trace anomalies in quantum field theories, and more generally to study properties of quantum fields coupled to gravity in first quantization. While their construction in…
Branched rough paths, defined as paths with values in the character group of the Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}_\mathrm{CK}$, constitute integration theories that may fail to satisfy the usual integration by parts identity. Using…
We provide formulas for generating functions of many types of paths in various rooted tree structures. We compute the $k$th moment of the generating functions for various types of vertical paths. In two specific familes of trees we find…
In this paper, we present a statistical model of spacetime trajectories based on a finite collection of paths organized into a branched manifold. For each configuration of the branched manifold, we define a Shannon entropy. Given the…
We construct in this article an explicit geometric rough path over arbitrary $d$-dimensional paths with finite $1/\alpha$-variation for any $\alpha\in(0,1)$. The method may be coined as 'Fourier normal ordering', since it consists in a…
Establishing the convergence of splines can be cast as a variational problem which is amenable to a $\Gamma$-convergence approach. We consider the case in which the regularization coefficient scales with the number of observations, $n$, as…
We develop a mathematically well-defined path integral formalism for general symplectic manifolds. We argue that in order to make a path integral quantization covariant under general coordinate transformations on the phase space and involve…
This paper displays complexity reduction techniques for calculations of path categories (or fundamental categories) P(K) for finite simplicial and cubical complexes K. The central technique involves identifying inclusions of complexes for…
