By means of a space-time Wasserstein control, we show the monotonicity of the W-entropy functional in time along heat flows on possibly singular metric measure spaces with non-negative Ricci curvature and a finite upper bound of dimension…
The $2$-Wasserstein distance is sensitive to minor geometric differences between distributions, making it a very powerful dissimilarity metric. However, due to this sensitivity, a small outlier mass can also cause a significant increase in…
We prove that if X is a separable, reflexive space which is asymptotic l_p, then X embeds into a reflexive space Z having an asymptotic l_p finite-dimensional decomposition. This result leads to an intrinsic characterization of subspaces of…
We study the Wasserstein metric $W_p$, a notion of distance between two probability distributions, from the perspective of Fourier Analysis and discuss applications. In particular, we bound the Earth Mover Distance $W_1$ between the…
The Wasserstein distance is an attractive tool for data analysis but statistical inference is hindered by the lack of distributional limits. To overcome this obstacle, for probability measures supported on finitely many points, we derive…
Let $P$ be a directed set and $X$ a space. A collection $\mathcal{C}$ of subsets of $X$ is \emph{$P$-locally finite} if $\mathcal{C}=\bigcup \{ \mathcal{C}_p : p \in P\}$ where (i) if $p \le p'$ then $\mathcal{C}_p \subseteq…
We find a new finite algorithm for evaluation of Lipschitz-free $p$-space norm in finite-dimensional Lipschitz-free $p$-spaces. We use this algorithm to deal with the problem of whether given $p$-metric spaces $N\subset M$, the canonical…
We define embedding of an $n$-dimensional normed space into $L_{-p},\ 0<p<n$ by extending analytically with respect to $p$ the corresponding property of the classical $L_p$-spaces. The well-known connection between embeddings into $L_p$ and…
We obtain several new characterizations of ultrametric spaces in terms of roundness, generalized roundness, strict p-negative type, and p-polygonal equalities (p > 0). This allows new insight into the isometric embedding of ultrametric…
We prove that the space of persistence diagrams on $n$ points (with the bottleneck or a Wasserstein distance) coarsely embeds into Hilbert space by showing it is of asymptotic dimension $2n$. Such an embedding enables utilisation of Hilbert…
Wasserstein distances define a metric between probability measures on arbitrary metric spaces, including meta-measures (measures over measures). The resulting Wasserstein over Wasserstein (WoW) distance is a powerful, but computationally…
We introduce the notions of almost Lipschitz embeddability and nearly isometric embeddability. We prove that for $p\in [1,\infty]$, every proper subset of $L_p$ is almost Lipschitzly embeddable into a Banach space $X$ if and only if $X$…
For $\ell\colon \mathbb{R}^d \to [0,\infty)$ we consider the sequence of probability measures $\left(\mu_n\right)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$, where $\mu_n$ is determined by a density that is proportional to $\exp(-n\ell)$. We allow for infinitely…
Compact metric spaces form an important class of metric spaces, but the category that they define lacks many important properties such as completeness and cocompleteness. In recent studies of "metric domain theory" and Stone-type dualities,…
We show that the algebra of cylinder functions in the Wasserstein Sobolev space $H^{1,q}(\mathcal{P}_p(X,\mathsf{d}), W_{p, \mathsf{d}}, \mathfrak{m})$ generated by a finite and positive Borel measure $\mathfrak{m}$ on the…
A topological space is iso-dense if it has a dense set of isolated points. A topological space is scattered if each of its non-empty subspaces has an isolated point. In $\mathbf{ZF}$, in the absence of the axiom of choice, basic properties…
We study metric measure spaces that admit "thick" families of rectifiable curves or curve fragments, in the form of Alberti representations or curve families of positive modulus. We show that such spaces cannot be bi-Lipschitz embedded into…
We discuss two ways to construct standard probability measures, called push-down measures, from internal probability measures. We show that the Wasserstein distance between an internal probability measure and its push-down measure is…
Motivated by numerical modeling of ultrasound waves, we investigate robust conforming finite element discretizations of quasilinear and possibly nonlocal equations of Westervelt type. These wave equations involve either a strong dissipation…
We extend the geometric study of the Wasserstein space W(X) of a simply connected, negatively curved metric space X by investigating which pairs of boundary points can be linked by a geodesic, when X is a tree.
