Choosing the Fisher information as the metric tensor for a Riemannian manifold provides a powerful yet fundamental way to understand statistical distribution families. Distances along this manifold become a compelling measure of statistical…
Bi-Hamiltonian structure and Lax pair formulation with the spectral parameter of the generalized fermionic Toda lattice hierarchy as well as its bosonic and fermionic symmetries for different (including periodic) boundary conditions are…
We prove separation of variables for the most general (Dn type) periodic Toda lattice with 2x2 Lax matrix. It is achieved by finding proper normalisation for the corresponding Baker-Akhiezer function. Separation of variables for all other…
As observed by Auderset et al. (2005) and Wiesel (2012), viewing covariance matrices as elements of a Riemannian manifold and using the concept of geodesic convexity provide useful tools for studying M-estimators of multivariate scatter. In…
The Riemannian geometry of covariance matrices has been essential to several successful applications, in computer vision, biomedical signal and image processing, and radar data processing. For these applications, an important ongoing…
Originally a model for wave propagation on the line, the Toda lattice is a wonderful case study in mechanics and symplectic geometry. In Flaschka's variables, it becomes an evolution given by a Lax pair on the vector space of real,…
A simple way of obtaining robust estimates of the "center" (or the "location") and of the "scatter" of a dataset is to use the maximum likelihood estimate with a class of heavy-tailed distributions, regardless of the "true" distribution…
The Cholesky factorization of the moment matrix is applied to discrete orthogonal polynomials on the homogeneous lattice. In particular, semiclassical discrete orthogonal polynomials, which are built in terms of a discrete Pearson equation,…
An alternative method of constructing the formal diagonalization for the discrete Lax operators is proposed which can be used to calculate conservation laws and in some cases generalized symmetries for discrete dynamical systems. Discrete…
By exhibiting the corresponding Lax pair representations we propose a wide class of integrable two-dimensional (2D) fermionic Toda lattice (TL) hierarchies which includes the 2D N=(2|2) and N=(0|2) supersymmetric TL hierarchies as…
We introduce nonlocal flows that commute with those of the classical Toda hierarchy. We define a logarithm of the difference Lax operator and use it to obtain a Lax representation of the new flows.
We consider planar directed last-passage percolation on the square lattice with general i.i.d. weights and study the geometry of the full set of semi-infinite geodesics in a typical realization of the random environment. The structure of…
A new Riemannian geometry for the Compound Gaussian distribution is proposed. In particular, the Fisher information metric is obtained, along with corresponding geodesics and distance function. This new geometry is applied on a change…
We obtain the integral formulae for computing the tetrads and metric components in Riemann normal coordinates and Fermi coordinate system of an observer in arbitrary motion. Our approach admits essential enlarging the range of validity of…
Real world data often lie on low-dimensional Riemannian manifolds embedded in high-dimensional spaces. This motivates learning degenerate normalizing flows that map between the ambient space and a low-dimensional latent space. However, if…
Results on the finite nonperiodic Toda lattice are extended to some generalizations of the system: The relativistic Toda lattice, the generalized Toda lattice associated with simple Lie groups and the full Kostant-Toda lattice. The areas…
The geometry of impulsive pp-waves is explored via the analysis of the geodesic and geodesic deviation equation using the distributional form of the metric. The geodesic equation involves formally ill-defined products of distributions due…
By exhibiting the corresponding Lax pair representations we propose a wide class of integrable two-dimensional (2D) fermionic Toda lattice (TL) hierarchies which includes the 2D N=(2|2) and N=(0|2) supersymmetric TL hierarchies as…
We develop algebro-geometrical approach for the open Toda lattice. For a finite Jacobi matrix we introduce a singular reducible Riemann surface and associated Baker-Akhiezer functions. We provide new explicit solution of inverse spectral…
The tensorial form of the Lax pair equations are given in a compact and geometrically transparent form in the presence of Cartan's torsion tensor. Three-dimensional spacetimes admitting Lax tensors are analyzed in detail. Solutions to Lax…
