We introduce sequences of functions orthogonal on a finite interval: proper orthogonal rational functions, orthogonal exponential functions, orthogonal logarithmic functions, and transmuted orthogonal polynomials
Correspondences between k-tuples of points are key in multiple view geometry and motion analysis. Regular transformations are posed by homographies between two projective planes that serves as structural models for images. Such…
Projection predictive inference is a decision theoretic Bayesian approach that decouples model estimation from decision making. Given a reference model previously built including all variables present in the data, projection predictive…
We introduce the notion of an orthocomplemented subspace of a Hilbert space H, that is, a pair of orthogonal closed subspaces of H, as a two-dimensional counterpart to the one-dimensional notion of a closed subspace of H. Orthocomplemented…
The paper deals with partial and weak preference relations defined on infinite-dimensional vector spaces and compatible with algebraic operations. By a partial preference we mean an asymmetric and transitive binary relation, while a weak…
It is shown that harmonic functions from a simply connected domain in R^3 to R^3 cannot always be expressed as a sum of a monogenic (hyperholomorphic) function and an antimonogenic function, in contrast to the situation for complex numbers…
The complement of a hyperplane arrangement in the complex projective space is known to be formal. We prove the global Milnor fiber associated to the homogeneous polynomial defining the arrangement may not even be 1-formal, by giving an…
Positive geometry provides a geometric framework where physical observables are encoded as canonical forms associated to regions of kinematic space. In this paper we consider a generalisation to an infinite union of line segments, which…
It is known that a countable $\omega$-categorical structure interprets all finite structures primitively positively if and only if its polymorphism clone maps to the clone of projections on a two-element set via a continuous clone…
We classify compact 2-connected homogeneous spaces with the same rational cohomology as a product of spheres. This classification relies on spectral sequences, homotopy theory, and representation theory. We then apply this classification to…
We collect here some known results on the subdifferential of one-homogeneous functionals, which are anisotropic and nonhomogeneous variants of the total variation and establish a new relationship between Lebesgue points of the calibrating…
This paper considers the topic of finding prior distributions when a major component of the statistical model depends on a nonlinear function. Using results on how to construct uniform distributions in general metric spaces, we propose a…
We define the flag space and space of singular vectors for an arrangement A of hyperplanes in projective space equipped with a system of weights a: A --> C. We show that the contravariant bilinear form of the corresponding weighted central…
For various Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the unit disk, we characterize when a function $f$ has optimal polynomial approximants given by truncations of a single power series. We also introduce a generalized notion of optimal…
Semilinear maps are a generalization of linear maps between vector spaces where we allow the scalar action to be twisted by a ring homomorphism such as complex conjugation. In particular, this generalization unifies the concepts of linear…
A subunit in a monoidal category is a subobject of the monoidal unit for which a canonical morphism is invertible. They correspond to open subsets of a base topological space in categories such as those of sheaves or Hilbert modules. We…
Affinely closed homogeneous spaces G/H, i.e., affine homogeneous spaces that admit only the trivial affine embedding, are characterized for any affine algebraic group G. As a corollary, a description of affine G-algebras with finitely…
A structure is called homogeneous if every isomorphism between finite substructures of the structure extends to an automorphism of the structure. Recently, P. J. Cameron and J. Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il introduced a relaxed version of homogeneity:…
Hyperplanes and hyperplane complements in the Segre product of partial linear spaces are investigated . The parallelism of such a complement is characterized in terms of the point-line incidence. Assumptions, under which the automorphisms…
Multimodular functions, primarily used in the literature of queueing theory, discrete-event systems, and operations research, constitute a fundamental function class in discrete convex analysis. The objective of this paper is to clarify the…
