Any solid object can be decomposed into a collection of convex polytopes (in short, convexes). When a small number of convexes are used, such a decomposition can be thought of as a piece-wise approximation of the geometry. This…

In this work, we consider a class of convex optimization problems in a real Hilbert space that can be solved by performing a single projection, i.e., by projecting an infeasible point onto the feasible set. Our results improve those…

We perform the first tight convergence analysis of the gradient method with varying step sizes when applied to smooth hypoconvex (weakly convex) functions. Hypoconvex functions are smooth nonconvex functions whose curvature is bounded and…

We prove a quantitative version of the following statement. Given a Lipschitz function f from the k-dimensional unit cube into a general metric space, one can decomposed f into a finite number of BiLipschitz functions f|_{F_i} so that the…

We investigate to what extent it is possible to solve linear inverse problems with $ReLu$ networks. Due to the scaling invariance arising from the linearity, an optimal reconstruction function $f$ for such a problem is positive homogeneous,…

In this paper we build provably near-optimal, in the minimax sense, estimates of linear forms and, more generally, "$N$-convex functionals" (the simplest example being the maximum of several fractional-linear functions) of unknown "signal"…

Recently, versions of neural networks with infinite-dimensional affine operators inside the computational units (``neural operator'' networks) have been applied to learn solutions to differential equations. To enable practical computations,…

A linear functional of an object from a convex symmetric set can be optimally estimated, in a worst-case sense, by a linear functional of observations made on the object. This well-known fact is extended here to a nonlinear setting: other…

We study the approximation of a square-integrable function from a finite number of evaluations on a random set of nodes according to a well-chosen distribution. This is particularly relevant when the function is assumed to belong to a…

This work concerns the study of the subdifferential of the integral functional $$ E_f(x)=\int_{T} f(t,x)d\mu(t), $$ where $f$ is a (not necessarily convex) normal integrand, $({T},\mathcal{A},\mu)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space, while…

This paper is concerned with a novel regularisation technique for solving linear ill-posed operator equations in Hilbert spaces from data that is corrupted by white noise. We combine convex penalty functionals with extreme-value statistics…
