Modern optimization is tasked with handling applications of increasingly large scale, chiefly due to the massive amounts of widely available data and the ever-growing reach of Machine Learning. Consequently, this area of research is under steady pressure t ...
In this thesis we will present two results on global existence for nonlinear dispersive equations with data at or below the scaling regularity. In chapter 1 we take a probabilistic perspective to study the energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in ...
The interior transmission eigenvalue problem is a system of partial differential equations equipped with Cauchy data on the boundary: the transmission conditions. This problem appears in the inverse scattering theory for inhomogeneous media when, for some ...
We study the energy-critical nonlinear Schrodinger equation with randomised initial data in dimensions d > 6. We prove that the Cauchy problem is almost surely globally well-posed with scattering for randomised supercritical initial data in H-s(Rd) wheneve ...
We discuss criteria for a stable map of genus two and degree 4 to the projective plane to be smoothable, as an application of our modular desingularisation of (M) over bar (2,n)(P-r, d)(main) via logarithmic geometry and Gorenstein singularities. ...
Functional data are typically modeled as sample paths of smooth stochastic processes in order to mitigate the fact that they are often observed discretely and noisily, occasionally irregularly and sparsely. The smoothness assumption is imposed to allow for ...

We consider the problem of sampling from a density of the form p(x) ? exp(-f (x) - g(x)), where f : Rd-+ R is a smooth function and g : R-d-+ R is a convex and Lipschitz function. We propose a new algorithm based on the Metropolis-Hastings framework. Under ...
Universal methods for optimization are designed to achieve theoretically optimal convergence rates without any prior knowledge of the problem’s regularity parameters or the accurarcy of the gradient oracle employed by the optimizer. In this regard, existin ...
We consider the problem of provably finding a stationary point of a smooth function to be minimized on the variety of bounded-rank matrices. This turns out to be unexpectedly delicate. We trace the difficulty back to a geometric obstacle: On a nonsmooth se ...
