In this paper, we expand on previous work describing partial derivatives and metric component estimators to define tangent spaces on causal sets. Partial derivative operators are the basis vectors of the tangent space, and the metric…

A new and extensive formalism is developed for monads and galaxies in non-standard enlargements. It is shown that monads and galaxies can be manipulated using order-preserving and order-reversing set-to-set maps, and that set properties…

In many computer vision tasks, we expect a particular behavior of the output with respect to rotations of the input image. If this relationship is explicitly encoded, instead of treated as any other variation, the complexity of the problem…

We develop a "metrically selfdual" variational calculus for $c$-monotone vector fields between general manifolds $X$ and $Y$, where $c$ is a coupling on $X\times Y$. Remarkably, many of the key properties of classical monotone operators…
