A convolution algebra is a topological vector space X that is closed under the convolution operation. It is said to be inverse-closed if each element of X whose spectrum is bounded away from zero has a convolution inverse that is also part of the algebra. ...
We study the properties of the normal cone to a proximally smooth set. We give a complete characterization of a proximally smooth set through the monotonicity properties of its normal cone in an arbitrary uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space. ...
The street-network efficiency of tens of British cities in relation to transport fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are analyzed. The results show a strong linear positive correlation between length entropy and average street length, and a negative correla ...
We introduce a complete parameterization of the family of two-dimensional steerable wavelets that are polar-separable in the Fourier domain under the constraint of self-reversibility. These wavelets are constructed by multiorder generalized Riesz transform ...
We prove a fixed point theorem for a family of Banach spaces, notably for L^1. Applications include the optimal answer to the "derivation problem" for group algebras which originated in the 1960s. ...
Modifying the moduli of supporting convexity and supporting smoothness, we introduce new moduli for Banach spaces which occur, for example, as lengths of catheti of right-angled triangles (defined via so-called quasiorthogonality). These triangles have two ...
Splines come in a variety of flavors that can be characterized in terms of some differential operator L. The simplest piecewise-constant model corresponds to the derivative operator. Likewise, one can extend the traditional notion of total variation by con ...
For Banach spaces X and Y, we consider bifurcation from the line of trivial solutions for the equation F(lambda, u) = 0, where F : R x X -> Y with F(lambda, 0) = 0 for all lambda is an element of R. The focus is on the situation where F(lambda, center dot) ...

We investigate how probability tools can be useful to study representations of non-amenable groups. A suitable notion of "probabilistic subgroup" is proposed for locally compact groups, and is valuable to induction of representations. Nonamenable groups ad ...
We propose a framework for the detection of junctions in images. Although the detection of edges and key points is a well examined and described area, the multiscale detection of junction centers, especially for odd orders, poses a challenge in pattern ana ...
