Over the last decade, the Age of Information has emerged as a key concept and metric for applications where the freshness of sensor-provided data is critical. Limited transmission capacity has motivated research on the design of tractable policies for scheduling information updates to minimize Age of Information cost based on Markov...
We address the problem of splitting of eigenvalues of the Neumann Laplacian under singular domain perturbations. We consider a domain perturbed by the excision of a small spherical hole shrinking to an interior point. Our main result establishes that the splitting of multiple eigenvalues is a generic property: if the center of the...
Differentials on Riemann surfaces correspond to translation surfaces with conical singularities, and affine transformations acting on them preserve the orders of these singularities. This viewpoint allows the moduli spaces of differentials to appear in various guises across many areas, including algebraic geometry, dynamical systems,...
We fully characterize the core of a broad class of nonlinear games by identifying a suitable relaxation for inherent nonlinearity, directly generalizing the linear frameworks in the literature. This characterization significantly expands the scope of cooperative games that can be analyzed and contributes to the literature on games...
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and its variants are widely used and highly effective optimization methods in machine learning, especially for neural network training. By using a single datum or a small subset of the data, selected randomly at each iteration, SGD scales well to problem size and has been shown to be effective for...
We classify branched immersed disks in space forms with non-zero parallel mean curvature vector and non-orthogonal constant contact angle along the boundary in 4-dimensional space form. For higher codimensional case, we prove a codimension reduction theorem for branched immersed bordered Riemann surfaces of higher genus with multiple...
A 3-dimensional polytope is called k-equiprojective if every planar projection along a direction non-parallel to any facet is a k-gon. In this article, we generalise equiprojectivity to higher dimensions and give a lower bound on the number of combinatorial types of equiprojective polytopes. We also establish the pathwise...
Alan and al. defined and studied quasi-maximal ideals. We add a comprehensive characterization of these ideals, introducing submaximal ideals. The conductor of a finite minimal extension $R\subset S$ is quasi-maximal in $S$. This allows us to give a new characterization of these extensions. We also examine the links between...
We investigate a class of groups acting on possibly exotic affine buildings $X$ and possessing good proximal properties. Such groups are termed of general type, and their dynamics is analyzed through their flag limit sets in the space of chambers at infinity of $X$. For a group $G$ of general type, we prove C*-simplicity by showing...
We show that if the curvature of a Cartan-Hadamard $n$-manifold is constant near a convex hypersurface $Γ$, then the total Gauss-Kronecker curvature $\mathcal{G}(Γ)$ is not less than that of any convex hypersurface nested inside $Γ$. This extends Borbély's monotonicity theorem in hyperbolic space. It follows that $\mathcal{G}(Γ)$ is...
In this thesis we explore natural procedures through which topological structure can be constructed from specific semigroups. We will do this in two ways: 1) we equip the semigroup object itself with a topological structure, and 2) we find a topological space for the semigroup to act on continuously. We discuss various...
In this expository article, we prove a birational classification of smooth projective models of surfaces with negative Kodaira dimension over $\mathbb{Z}$ and over more general rings of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$, depending on their arithmetic and cohomological invariants. Along the way we collect some results on smooth projective...
Addition theorems have been indispensable tools for the reduction of quantum transition amplitudes. They are normally utilized at the start of the process to move the angular dependence within plane waves and Coulomb potentials, and the like, into a sum over Spherical Harmonics that allows the angular integration to be carried out....
This paper develops 'covariant tomography', a local framework for solving Inverse Boundary Value Problems (IBVP) for parallel transport equation on star-shaped domains. By integrating geometric decomposition with specific interior extensions - radial, heat equation, or harmonic - the method reconstructs currents and gauge potentials...
Notions of positive curvature have been shown to imply many remarkable properties for Markov processes, in terms, e.g., of regularization effects, functional inequalities, mixing time bounds and, more recently, the cutoff phenomenon. In this work, we are interested in a relaxed variant of Ollivier's coarse Ricci curvature, where a...
This work presents two integration methods for field transfer in computational aeroacoustics and in coupled field problems, using the finite element method to solve the acoustic field. Firstly, a high-order Gaussian quadrature computes the finite element right-hand side. In contrast, the (flow) field provided by the finite difference...
The numerical solution of high dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) is severely constrained by the curse of dimensionality (CoD), rendering classical grid--based methods impractical beyond a few dimensions. In recent years, deep neural networks have emerged as a promising mesh free alternative, enabling the approximation...
We consider non-linear regression models corrupted by generic noise when the regression functions form a non-linear subspace of L^2, relevant in non-linear PDE inverse problems and data assimilation. We show that when the score of the model is injective, the Fisher information operator is automatically invertible between...
Volume polynomials form a distinguished class of log-concave polynomials with remarkable analytic and combinatorial properties. I will survey realization problems related to them, review fundamental inequalities they satisfy, and discuss applications to the combinatorics of algebraic matroids. These notes are based on lectures given...
Vertex-patch smoothers offer an effective strategy for achieving robust geometric multigrid convergence for the Stokes equations, particularly in the context of high-order finite elements. However, their practical efficiency is often limited by the computational cost of solving the local saddle-point problems, especially when explicit...
Motivated by the Onsager statistical mechanics description of turbulent Euler flows with point singularities, we obtain a Harnack-type inequality for sequences of solutions of the following perturbed Liouville equation, \begin{equation}\nonumber -Δv_n=\left({ε_n^2+|x|^2}\right)^{α_n}V_n(x)e^{\displaystyle v_n} \qquad\text{in} \,\,\,...
AI for Mathematics (AI4Math) has emerged as a distinct field that leverages machine learning to navigate mathematical landscapes historically intractable for early symbolic systems. While mid-20th-century symbolic approaches successfully automated formal logic, they faced severe scalability limitations due to the combinatorial...
Let $π_n$ be a uniformly chosen random permutation on $[n]$. The authors of [2] showed that the expected number of distinct consecutive patterns of all lengths $k\in\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in $π_n$ was $\frac{n^2}{2}(1-o(1))$ as $n\to\infty$, exhibiting the fact that random permutations pack consecutive patterns near-perfectly. A conjecture...
This paper investigates the asymptotic stability of rarefaction waves for a one-dimensional compressible fluid system, where the Newton's law of viscosity and Fourier's law of heat conduction are replaced by Maxwell's law and Cattaneo's law, respectively. The system, which generalizes the classical Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations,...
Motivated by the Onsager statistical mechanics description of turbulent Euler flows with point singularities, we make a first step in the generalization of the mean field theory in [Caglioti, Lions, Marchioro, Pulvirenti; Comm. Math. Phys. (1995)]. On one side we prove the equivalence of statistical ensembles, on the other side we are...
