In spaces of nonpositive curvature the existence of isometrically embedded flat (hyper)planes is often granted by apparently weaker conditions on large scales. We show that some such results remain valid for metric spaces with non-unique…
Given a homogeneous component of an exterior algebra, we characterize those subspaces in which every nonzero element is decomposable. In geometric terms, this corresponds to characterizing the projective linear subvarieties of the Grassmann…
In a unital C*-algebra with a faithful trace functional $\tau$, the set $D_\tau(A)$ of positive $\rho\in A$ of trace \tau(\rho)=1 is an algebraic analogue of the space of density matrices (the set of all positive matrices of a fixed…
Let $R(\phi)$ be the number of $\phi$-conjugacy (or Reidemeister) classes of an endomorphism $\phi$ of a group $G$. We prove for several classes of groups (including polycyclic) that the number $R(\phi)$ is equal to the number of fixed…
We extend the finite-distance Jacobi-metric Gauss-Bonnet framework of Li \textit{et al}. [10.1103/PhysRevD.101.124058] to massive test particles carrying intrinsic spin. At pole-dipole order, the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon dynamics…
We study the fixed-support Wasserstein barycenter problem (FS-WBP), which consists in computing the Wasserstein barycenter of $m$ discrete probability measures supported on a finite metric space of size $n$. We show first that the…
In this paper, using Kronecker's theorem, we discuss the set of common fixed points of an n-parameter continuous semigroup of mappings. We also discuss convergence theorems to a common fixed point of an n-parameter nonexpansive semigroup.
Matrix normal models have an associated 4-tensor for their covariance representation. The covariance array associated with a matrix normal model is naturally represented as a Kronecker-product structured covariance associated with the…
We provide a geometric condition which characterises when the Principle of Dependent Choice holds in a Fraenkel--Mostowski--Specker permutation model. This condition is a slight weakening of requiring the filter of groups to be closed under…
The Gromov-Wasserstein (GW) transport problem is a relaxation of classic optimal transport, which seeks a transport between two measures while preserving their internal geometry. Due to meeting this theoretical underpinning, it is a…
We propose a model-independent framework for fitting hadronic form-factor data, which is often only available at discrete kinematical points, using parameterisations based on to unitarity and analyticity. In this novel approach the latter…
Computing Wasserstein barycenters (a.k.a. Optimal Transport barycenters) is a fundamental problem in geometry which has recently attracted considerable attention due to many applications in data science. While there exist polynomial-time…
We introduce a weak notion of barycenter of a probability measure $\mu$ on a metric measure space $(X, d, {\bf m})$, with the metric $d$ and reference measure ${\bf m}$. Under the assumption that optimal transport plans are given by…
We investigate barycenters of Gaussian process laws in adapted Wasserstein space. The adapted Wasserstein distance refines classical optimal transport by enforcing compatibility of transport plans with the temporal flow of information, and…
We study a general formulation of regularized Wasserstein barycenters that enjoys favorable regularity, approximation, stability and (grid-free) optimization properties. This barycenter is defined as the unique probability measure that…
We consider fixed-point equations for probability distributions on isometry classes of measured metric spaces. The construction is required to be recursive and tree-like, but we allow loops for the geodesics between points in the support of…
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (i.e., a compact convex set with nonempty interior). Given a point $p$ in the interior of $K$, a hyperplane $h$ passing through $p$ is called barycentric if $p$ is the barycenter of $K \cap h$. In…
We classify locally finite joinings with respect to the Burger-Roblin measure for the action of a horospherical subgroup $U$ on $\Gamma \backslash G$, where $G = \operatorname{SO}(n,1)^\circ$ and $\Gamma$ is a convex cocompact and Zariski…
We propose a general analytical framework for single-facility continuous location problems under spatial demand uncertainty. In contrast to classical formulations based on discrete or regionally aggregated demands, the proposed model…
Let $M$ be a simply-connected compact Riemannian symmetric space, and $U$ a twice-differentiable function on $M$, with unique global minimum at $x^* \in M$. The idea of the present work is to replace the problem of searching for the global…
