We develop a finite-data framework for certifying \emph{zero-defect} (neutral) configurations of positive vectors under the canonical separable reciprocal cost. We show that this scalar cost is characterized among non-constant continuous…
We develop an information-theoretic framework for discrete dynamics grounded in a comparison-cost functional on ratios. Given two quantities compared via their ratio \(x=a/b\), we assign a cost \(F(x)\) measuring deviation from equilibrium…
We study functions satisfying the composition law $F(xy)+F(x/y)=P(F(x),F(y))$ with a symmetric polynomial combiner $P$. We prove that symmetry together with a quadratic degree bound on $P$ forces a composition law of d'Alembert type. We…
On a finite outcome space, the canonical Gibbs distribution is usually obtained by maximizing Shannon entropy at fixed mean of an externally supplied energy functional. This paper studies the finite-state consequences of a ratio-cost…
The Collatz variations pattern seems not to have any recurrence relation between numbers. But knowing that there is at least a natural number that converges after several iterations we construct a function $f_{X,Y}$ that is equal to the…
We study ratio-induced mismatch costs of the form $c(s,o)=J(\iota_S(s)/\iota_O(o))$, built from positive scale maps $\iota_S:S\to(0,\infty)$ and $\iota_O:O\to(0,\infty)$ and a penalty $J:(0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$. Assuming inversion…
Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) of a third-order tensor is a minimal decomposition into a sum of rank-$1$ tensors. We find new mild deterministic conditions for the uniqueness of individual rank-$1$ tensors in CPD and present an…
An optimal control problem with an infinite horizon quadratic cost functional for a linear system with a known additive disturbance is considered. The feature of this problem is that a weight matrix of the control cost in the cost…
In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of positive classical solution of the fractional Laplacian with singular nonlinearity in a smooth bounded domain with zero Drichlet boundary conditions. By the method of sub-supersolution,…
Canonical formalism of the rank-three tensor model has recently been proposed, in which "local" time is consistently incorporated by a set of first class constraints. By brute-force analysis, this paper shows that there exist only two forms…
In this paper we present an algorithm to find the discrete Lagrangian for an autonomous recurrence relation of arbitrary even order $2k$ with $k>1$. The method is based on the existence of a set of differential operators called annihilation…
We study a nonlinear decomposition of a positive definite matrix into two components: the inverse of another positive definite matrix and a symmetric matrix constrained to lie in a prescribed linear subspace. Equivalently, the inverse…
We propose a first-order augmented Lagrangian algorithm (FALC) to solve the composite norm minimization problem min |sigma(F(X)-G)|_alpha + |C(X)- d|_beta subject to A(X)-b in Q; where sigma(X) denotes the vector of singular values of X,…
The theory of regular cost functions is a quantitative extension to the classical notion of regularity. A cost function associates to each input a non-negative integer value (or infinity), as opposed to languages which only associate to…
We study regularity properties for solutions to elliptic equations that are degenerate or singular along orthogonal hyperplanes. The degenerate ellipticity is carried out by a weight term which is the monomial product of different powers of…
Starting from an action for discretized gravity we derive a canonical formalism that exactly reproduces the dynamics and (broken) symmetries of the covariant formalism. For linearized Regge calculus on a flat background -- which exhibits…
We study the regularity of the interface between the disjoint supports of a pair of nonnegative subharmonic functions. The portion of the interface where the Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman (ACF) monotonicity formula is asymptotically positive…
We calculate canonical charges in four dimensional conformal gravity using the generalised boundary conditions presented in \cite{Grumiller:2013mxa}. We show that the charges are finite and conserved. The asymptotic symmetry algebras…
We show global uniqueness in the fractional Calder\'on problem with a single measurement and with data on arbitrary, possibly disjoint subsets of the exterior. The previous work \cite{GhoshSaloUhlmann} considered the case of infinitely many…
We prove a sharp regularity threshold for uniqueness in two anisotropic Calder\'on-type inverse problems in dimension $n\ge 3$. The main setting is the Riemannian Schr\"odinger problem with fixed scalar potential: for a prescribed…
