Magnitude is a numerical invariant of finite metric spaces, recently introduced by T. Leinster, which is analogous in precise senses to the cardinality of finite sets or the Euler characteristic of topological spaces. It has been extended…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a strictly-positive Borel measure space. We show that the modes of convergence in a reproducing kernel Hilbert (RKHS) space, pointwise, weak and strong are all equivalents. From this we describe some important consequences…

We consider a metric measure space with a local regular Dirichlet form. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for upper heat kernel bounds with sub-diffusive space-time exponent to hold. This characterization is stable under…

In the present paper we develop the theory of minimization for energies with multivariate kernels, i.e. energies, in which pairwise interactions are replaced by interactions between triples or, more generally, $n$-tuples of particles. Such…

Starting with the correspondence between positive definite kernels on the one hand and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) on the other, we turn to a detailed analysis of associated measures and Gaussian processes. Point of departure:…

With view to applications in stochastic analysis and geometry, we introduce a new correspondence for positive definite kernels (p.d.) $K$ and their associated reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. With this we establish two kinds of…

We establish the convexity of Mabuchi's K-energy functional along weak geodesics in the space of Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold thus confirming a conjecture of Chen and give some applications in Kahler geometry, including a…

For d nonpolar compact sets K_1,...,K_d in the complex plane, d admissible weights Q_1,...,Q_d, and a positive semidefinite d x d interaction matrix C with no zero column, we define natural discretizations of the associated weighted vector…

This survey is an introduction to positive definite kernels and the set of methods they have inspired in the machine learning literature, namely kernel methods. We first discuss some properties of positive definite kernels as well as…

We study positive definiteness of kernels $K(x,y)$ on two-point homogeneous spaces. As opposed to the classical case, which has been developed and studied in the existing literature, we allow the kernel to have an (integrable) singularity…

The aim of the paper is to give a full characterization of functions f from I into the real line R (where I is an interval in R that satisfies certain natural conditions) such that for any I-valued positive definite kernel K defined on an…

The paper studies strictly positive definite kernels on compact Riemannian manifolds. We state new conditions to ensure strict positive definiteness for general kernels and kernels with certain convolutional structure. We also state…

In this note we combine the "spin-argument" from [KLR15] and the $n$-dimensional incompatible, one-well rigidity result from [LL16], in order to infer a new proof for the compactness of discrete multi-well energies associated with the…

We present the covariance analysis of two successful nuclear energy density functionals, (i) a non-relativistic Skyrme functional built from a zero-range effective interaction, and (ii) a relativistic nuclear energy density functional based…

Let "mu" be a point process on a countable discrete space "X". Under assumption that "mu" is quasi-invariant with respect to any finitary permutation of "X", we describe a general scheme for constructing an equilibrium Kawasaki dynamics for…

Let $X$ be a (data) set. Let $K(x,y)>0$ be a measure of the affinity between the data points $x$ and $y$. We prove that $K$ has the structure of a Newtonian potential $K(x,y)=\varphi(d(x,y))$ with $\varphi$ decreasing and $d$ a quasi-metric…

Here, the concept of electric capacity on Finsler spaces is introduced and the fundamental conformal invariant property is proved, i.e. the capacity of a compact set on a connected non-compact Finsler manifold is conformal invariant. This…

We reprove the well known fact that the energy distance defines a metric on the space of Borel probability measures on a Hilbert space with finite first moment by a new approach, by analyzing the behavior of the Gaussian kernel on Hilbert…

Let $\mu$ be a positive finite measure on the unit circle. The Dirichlet type space $\mathcal{D}(\mu)$, associated to $\mu$, consists of holomorphic functions on the unit disc whose derivatives are square integrable when weighted against…

This survey contains a selection of topics unified by the concept of positive semi-definiteness (of matrices or kernels), reflecting natural constraints imposed on discrete data (graphs or networks) or continuous objects (probability or…
