We introduce $\textsf{gradOL}$, the first gradient-based optimization framework for solving Chebyshev center problems, a fundamental challenge in optimal function learning and geometric optimization. $\textsf{gradOL}$ hinges on reformulating the semi-infinite problem as a finitary max-min optimization, making it amenable to...
Let $(M^m,g)$, $(N^n,h)$ be closed Riemannian manifolds, $m,n\geq 2$, with concave isoperimetric profiles and volumes $V_M$, $V_N$ respectively. We consider a one parameter family of product manifolds of the same volume, $(X,G_λ)=(M^m\times N^n,λ^{2n}g+ λ^{-2m}h)$, $λ>0$, and estimate a lower bound for their isoperimetric profile for...
This article aims to study the long-time dynamics of the linear viscoelastic plate equation $\displaystyle{u_{tt}+Δ^2 u-\int_τ^tg(t-s)Δ^2u(s)ds=0}$ subject to nonlinear and nonlocal boundary conditions. This model, with $τ=0$, was first considered by Cavalcanti (Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst., 8(3), 675-695, 2002), where results of...
Matrix joint block-diagonalization (JBD) frequently arises from diverse applications such as independent component analysis, blind source separation, and common principal component analysis (CPCA), among others. Particularly, CPCA aims at joint diagonalization, i.e., each block size being $1$-by-$1$. This paper is concerned with {\em...
When the one-form is $Lip\left(γ-1\right) $ with $γ>p\geq 1$, we construct the integral of a branched $p$-rough path, which defines another branched $p$-rough path. We derive a quantitative bound for this integral and prove that it depends continuously on the driving branched rough path in rough path metric. Moreover, we prove that...
We present a neural network-based method for learning scalar hyperbolic conservation laws. Our method replaces the traditional numerical flux in finite volume schemes with a trainable neural network while preserving the conservative structure of the scheme. The model can be trained both in a supervised setting with efficiently...
We study the existence and uniqueness of rank-based interacting systems of stochastic differential equations. These systems can be seen as modifications with state-dependent coefficients of the Atlas model in mathematical finance. The coefficients of the underlying SDEs are possibly discontinuous. We first establish strong...
In the 1960s, John Nash proposed a method to resolve singularities. Five decades of encouraging results could not prevent an unexpected ending: the method does not work in general. In this note (written in Spanish), we tell the story of the rise and fall of the Nash blowup.
We prove equivalent numerical conditions for a complete spherical variety to admit a toric structure, and for the smoothness of an arbitrary spherical variety along any given G-orbit. The conditions are in terms of spherical skeletons, a coarse ''subset'' of the Luna-Vust data of a spherical variety. Our smoothness criterion improves...
Let $ex_r(N,g)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $r$-uni\-form hypergraph on $N$ vertices with girth at least $g$. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of this value when $N$ is increasing but parameters $g\in\{6,8\}$ and $r\geq3$ are fixed. It is shown that for some positive constants $c$ and $d$, any integer $r\geq3$ and...
In this paper, we investigate the Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) with Time-of-Use (TOU) energy tariffs and machine states, a variant of RCPSP for production scheduling, where energy price is part of the criteria and one highly energy-demanding machine can be in one of the following three states: proc, idle, or...
Let $(X, \mfA,P)$ and $(Y, \mfB,Q)$ be two probability spaces, $R$ be their skew product on the product $σ$-algebra $\mfA\otimes\mfB$ and $\{(\mfA_y,S_y)\colon y\in{Y}\}$ be a $Q$-disintegration of $R$. Then let $\mfA\dd\mfB$ be the $σ$-algebra generated $\mfA\otimes\mfB$ and by the family $\mcM:=\{E\subset{X\times{Y}}\colon...
We consider the notion of an exponential dichotomy with respect to a family of norms for an evolutionary family in a Banach space, and we characterize it by the admissibility of the pair $(L^p,L^q)$ for $p,q \in [1,\infty]$ with $p\ge q$. We then use this characterization to establish the robustness of an exponentially dichotomic...
Hurwitz spaces which parametrize branched covers of the line play a prominent role in inverse Galois theory. This paper surveys fifty years of works in this direction with emphasis on recent advances. Based on the Riemann-Hurwitz theory of covers, the geometric and arithmetic setup is first reviewed, followed by the semi-modern...
Motivated by the desire of finding a geometric interpretation to the Yamabe equation on groups of Heisenberg type, we define a geometric structure on manifolds modelled locally on these groups, which we call contact structure of Heisenberg type. In the case of the Heisenberg group is equivalent to contact Riemannian manifolds. We...
We examine certain phenomena in $C^1$-dynamics from a viewpoint of shadowing and improve a known result on hyperbolic sets. We also review a result on the stability of attractor boundaries from the same viewpoint and derive several additional results.
We study the plastic Burgers equation in one space dimension, i.e., the Burgers equation featuring an additional term formally given by the p-Laplacian with p=1, or rather, by the multivalued subdifferential of the total variation functional. Our study highlights that the interplay of the advection term with the stresses given by the...
In this paper we study the connection between Herzog ideals (i.e., ideals with a squarefree Gröbner degeneration) and $F$-singularities. More precisely, we show that, in positive characteristic, homogeneous Herzog ideals define $F$-anti-nilpotent rings, and we inquire, in characteristic 0, on a surprising relationship between being...
We introduce a {\it non-linear} generalization of the classical Dobrushin-Lanford-Ruelle (DLR) framework by developing the concept of a $q$-specification and the associated $q$-equilibrium measures. These objects arise naturally from a family of non-linear $q$-stochastic operators acting on the space of probability measures. A...
For a purely $N$-periodic continued fraction $ξ=[\overline{a_0,a_1,\dots,a_{N-1}}]=[a_0,a_1,\cdots]$, with $a_k=a_{k+N}$ for all $k\ge 0$, and convergents $h_n/k_n=[a_0,a_1,\dots,a_n]$, we obtain explicit expressions for the weighted error sums $f_ξ(s)=\sum a_{n+1}\lvert h_n-ξk_n\rvert^s$ for $s>1$. A key observation is that, for each...
We introduce pseudofinite W*-probability spaces. These are W*-probability spaces that are elementarily equivalent to Ocneanu ultraproducts of finite-dimensional von Neumann algebras equipped with arbitrary faithful normal states. We are particularly interested in the case where these finite-dimensional von Neumann algebras are full...
The author has been interested in regions surrounded by cylinders of real algebraic hypersurfaces and their shapes and polynomials associated to them. Here, we formulate and investigate natural decompositions into such cylinders of real algebraic hypersurfaces. Especially, intersections of these cylinders of real algebraic...
This paper is devoted to the investigation of multidimensional analogues of refined Bohr-type inequalities for bounded holomorphic mappings on the unit polydisc $\mathbb{D}^n$. We establish a sharp extension of the classical Bohr inequality, proving that the Bohr radius remains $R_n = 1/(3n)$ for the family of holomorphic functions...
Motivated by Khintchin's 1923 conjecture, refuted by Marstrand in 1970, we study the Khintchin class of functions associated to a given increasing sequence of integers. When the Khintchin class contains L^p(\mathbb{T}), we call the sequence a L^p-Khintchin sequence. We establish basic properties of Khintchin sequences, provide several...
We provide error bounds on the traces and norms of the derivative of the $L^2$ projection of an $H^{k}$ function onto the space of polynomials of degree $\leq p$. The bounds are explicit in the order of differentiation and the polynomial degree $p$.
