This expository paper provides a unified and pedagogical introduction to optimal quantization for probability measures supported on spherical curves and discrete subsets of the sphere, emphasizing both continuous and discrete settings. We…
We construct smooth bundles with base and fiber products of two spheres whose total spaces have non-vanishing $\hat{A}$-genus. We then use these bundles to locate non-trivial rational homotopy groups of spaces of Riemannian metrics with…
This paper introduces the scaled boundary cubature (SBC) scheme for accurate and efficient integration of functions over polygons and two-dimensional regions bounded by parametric curves. Over two-dimensional domains, the SBC method reduces…
The purpose of this paper is to develop the anti-Gauss cubature rule for approximating integrals defined on the square whose integrand function may have algebraic singularities at the boundaries. An application of such a rule to the…
A general method for constructing essential uniform algebras with prescribed properties is presented. Using the method, the following examples are constructed: an essential, natural, regular uniform algebra on the closed unit disc; an…
Based on a novel point of view on 1-dimensional Gaussian quadrature, we present a new approach to the computation of d-dimensional cubature formulae. It is well known that the nodes of 1-dimensional Gaussian quadrature can be computed as…
An old theorem, due to Graustein, asserts that the average curvature of a plane oval is attained at least at four points. We present a proof by way of wave propagation and extend this result to the spherical and hyperbolic geometries - in…
We adopt a measure-theoretic perspective on the Riemannian approximation scheme proving a sub-Riemannian Gauss-Bonnet theorem for surfaces in 3D contact manifolds. We show that the zero-order term in the limit is a singular measure…
A simple mapping procedure is presented by which classical orbits and path integrals for the motion of a point particle in flat space can be transformed directly into those in curved space with torsion. Our procedure evolved from…
Simple proofs of the midpoint, trapezoidal and Simpson's rules are proved for numerical integration on a compact interval. The integrand is assumed to be twice continuously differentiable for the midpoint and trapezoidal rules, and to be…
In this paper, we investigate application of mathematical optimization to construction of a cubature formula on Wiener space, which is a weak approximation method of stochastic differential equations introduced by Lyons and Victoir…
We present a new adaptive method for electronic structure calculations based on novel fast algorithms for reduction of multivariate mixtures. In our calculations, spatial orbitals are maintained as Gaussian mixtures whose terms are selected…
In the present paper we prove several results concerning the existence of low-discrepancy point sets with respect to an arbitrary non-uniform measure $\mu$ on the $d$-dimensional unit cube. We improve a theorem of Beck, by showing that for…
The authors previously found a model of universal quantum computation by making use of the coset structure of subgroups of a free group $G$ with relations. A valid subgroup $H$ of index $d$ in $G$ leads to a 'magic' state…
This paper proves that given a doubling weight $w$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$, there exists a positive constant $K_w$ such that for each positive integer $n$ and each integer $N\geq \max_{x\in \mathbb{S}^{d-1}}…
We study compactness properties of the set of conformally flat singular metrics with constant, positive sixth order Q-curvature on a finitely punctured sphere. Based on a recent classification of the local asymptotic behavior near isolated…
A spherical $t$-design is a set of points on the sphere that are nodes of a positive equal weight quadrature rule having algebraic accuracy $t$ for all spherical polynomials with degrees $\le t$. Spherical $t$-designs have many…
Let $\Pi_n^d$ denote the space of all spherical polynomials of degree at most $n$ on the unit sphere $\sph$ of $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, and let $d(x, y)$ denote the usual geodesic distance $\arccos x\cdot y$ between $x, y\in \sph$. Given a…
This paper is a second part of our study of the Discrete Polyharmonic Cubature Formulas on the disc. It completes our study and provides a satisfactory cubature formula in terms of precision and number of evaluation points (coefficient of…
An important question in the theory of approximate integration is to study the conditions on the nodes $x_{k,n}$ and weights $w_{k,n}$ that allow an estimate of the form $$ \sup_{f\in \mathcal{B}_\gamma}|\sum_k…
