Cochains are all you need

In this thesis, we apply cochain complexes as an algebraic model of space in a diverse range of mathematical and scientific settings. We begin with an algebraic-discrete Morse theory model of auto-encoding cochain data, connecting the homotopy theory of d ...

Quasiconvexity and Relaxation in Optimal Transportation of Closed Differential Forms

Bernard Dacorogna

This manuscript extends the relaxation theory from nonlinear elasticity to electromagnetism and to actions defined on paths of differential forms. The introduction of a gauge allows for a reformulation of the notion of quasiconvexity in Bandyopadhyay et al ...

On Jump-Diffusive Driving Noise Sources: Some Explicit Results and Applications

Max-Olivier Hongler, Roger Filliger

We study some linear and nonlinear shot noise models where the jumps are drawn from a compound Poisson process with jump sizes following an Erlang-m distribution. We show that the associated Master equation can be written as a spatial mth order partial dif ...

The Bounded Cohomology of SL2 Over Local Fields and S-Integers

Nicolas Monod

It is proved that the continuous bounded cohomology of SL2(k) vanishes in all positive degrees whenever k is a non-Archimedean local field. This holds more generally for boundary-transitive groups of tree automorphisms and implies low degree vanishing for ...

Exact Smooth Term Structure Estimation

Damir Filipovic, Sander Félix M Willems

We present a non-parametric method to estimate the discount curve from market quotes based on the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse. The discount curve reproduces the market quotes perfectly, has maximal smoothness, and is given in closed-form. The method is eas ...

Notions of affinity in calculus of variations with differential forms

Saugata Bandyopadhyay, Swarnendu Sil

Ext-int. one affine functions are functions affine in the direction of one-divisible exterior forms with respect to the exterior product in one variable and with respect to the interior product in the other. The purpose of this article is to prove a charac ...

Calculus of Variations for Differential Forms

Swarnendu Sil

In this thesis we study calculus of variations for differential forms. In the first part we develop the framework of direct methods of calculus of variations in the context of minimization problems for functionals of one or several differential forms of th ...

Optimal transport of closed differential forms for convex costs

Bernard Dacorogna, Olivier Kneuss

Let c : A(k-1) -> R+ be convex and Omega subset of R-n be a bounded domain. Let f(0) and f(1) be two closed k-forms on Omega satisfying appropriate boundary conditions. We discuss the minimization of integral(Omega) c (A) dx over a subset of (k - 1)-forms ...
