We introduce a randomized iterative fragmentation procedure for finite metric spaces, which is guaranteed to result in a polynomially large subset that is $D$-equivalent to an ultrametric, where $D\in (2,\infty)$ is a prescribed target…

We show that the recently introduced L1TV functional can be used to explicitly compute the flat norm for co-dimension one boundaries. While this observation alone is very useful, other important implications for image analysis and shape…

In this article we prove the existence of sets $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of zero Fourier dimension such that it is possible to restrict the Fourier transform to $E$ on a certain non-trivial range $[1,\tilde{p})$ with $1<\tilde{p}<2$. This…

We establish weighted $L^p$-Fourier-extension estimates for $O(N-k) \times O(k)$-invariant functions defined on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{N-1}$, allowing for exponents $p$ below the Stein-Tomas critical exponent $\frac{2(N+1)}{N-1}$.…

We derive relationships between the shape deformation of an impenetrable obstacle and boundary measurements of scattering fields on the perturbed shape itself. Our derivation is rigourous by using systematic way, based on layer potential…

Uncertainty in LiDAR measurements, stemming from factors such as range sensing, is crucial for LIO (LiDAR-Inertial Odometry) systems as it affects the accurate weighting in the loss function. While recent LIO systems address uncertainty…

We explore the Fourier transform of the Heegaard Floer $d$-invariants, which is particularly well-behaved with respect to connected sum. As corollaries, we show that lens spaces are cancellable in the monoid of 3-manifolds up to integer…

It is shown that if the Fourier transform is a bounded map on a rearrangement-invariant space of functions on $\mathbb R^n$, modified by a weight, then the weight is bounded above and below and the space is equivalent to $L^2$. Also, if it…

Using the notion of higher-order Fourier dimension introduced in \cite{M2} (which was a sort of psuedorandomness condition stemming from the Gowers norms of Additive Combinatorics), we prove a maximal theorem and corresponding…

Fix $p>2$. We prove that the Euclidean distortion of every $n$-point subset of $L_p$ is $p^3(\log n)^{\frac12+o(1)}$, thus, in particular, demonstrating that all $n$-point subsets of $L_p$ exhibit an asymptotic improvement over the $O(\log…
