In this paper, we overview one promising avenue of progress at the mathematical foundation of deep learning: the connection between deep networks and function approximation by affine splines (continuous piecewise linear functions in…
Linear Geometry studies geometric properties which can be expressed via the notion of a line. All information about lines is encoded in a ternary relation called a line relation. A set endowed with a line relation is called a liner. So,…
This note presents reflections drawn from my recent experiences in teaching a course on mathematics and sustainability, with a particular emphasis on raising awareness of the topic and its broader implications. The lectures were structured…
Geometry problem solving, a crucial aspect of mathematical reasoning, is vital across various domains, including education, the assessment of AI's mathematical abilities, and multimodal capability evaluation. The recent surge in deep…
This is a set of lecture notes introducing graduate students to the topic of Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) methods.
These notes are an overview of some classical linear methods in Multivariate Data Analysis. This is a good old domain, well established since the 60's, and refreshed timely as a key step in statistical learning. It can be presented as part…
Surface metrology is the area of engineering concerned with the study of geometric variation in surfaces. This paper explores the potential for modern techniques from spatial statistics to act as generative models for geometric variation in…
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the effective beginning of large, systematic redshift surveys of galaxies. These surveys have had a major impact on observational cosmology and on our current understanding of large-scale structures…
The present article is an empirical study that investigates the learning situation of linear algebra. Research was performed among 60 science and engineering students from different universities in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hubei, and Shandong who…
These notes grew out of several introductory talks I gave during the years 2003--2005 on motivic integration. They give a short but thorough introduction to the flavor of motivic integration which nowadays goes by the name of geometric…
During the past two decades there has been a lot of interest in developing statistical depth notions that generalize the univariate concept of ranking to multivariate data. The notion of depth has also been extended to regression models and…
This paper is based on a talk presented by the first author at the Short Program on Riemannian Geometry that took place at the Centre de Recherche Math\'ematiques, Universit\'e de Montr\'eal, during the period June 28-July 16, 2004. It is a…
These notes are an expanded version of an introductory lecture on contact geometry given at the 2001 Georgia Topology Conference. They are intended to present some of the "topological" aspects of three dimensional contact geometry.
Poisson algebras have become an essential topic in mathematics with a rich structure and wide applicability. Despite numerous resources available on Poisson structures, the algebraic side of the story remains relatively less explored. This…
The first part of this article is a short and selective survey of developments in differential and algebraic geometry from the 1980's involving enumerative questions and nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations. In the second part…
This book is a textbook for the basic course of differential geometry. It is recommended as an introductory material for this subject.
I introduce a new geometrical approach to thermo--statistical mechanics. Here I highlight the main physical ideas, and how do they translate into geometrical language. I contrast the present approach with previous…
Some of recent developments, including recent results, ideas, techniques, and approaches, in the study of degenerate partial differential equations are surveyed and analyzed. Several examples of nonlinear degenerate, even mixed, partial…
This paper wants to show how practical geometry, created to give a concrete help to people involved in trade, in land-surveying and even in astronomy, underwent a transformation that underlined its didactical value and turned it first into…
This paper is an updated version of a survey on projective configurations of subspaces in general position. The preceding version was published in Russian in 1989 and in English in 1990 (in Leningrad Math. J.) opening a new section ``Light…
