This work is concerned with approximating a trivariate function defined on a tensor-product domain via function evaluations. Combining tensorized Chebyshev interpolation with a Tucker decomposition of low multilinear rank yields function approximations tha ...
We compute a family of scalar loop diagrams in AdS. We use the spectral representation to derive various bulk vertex/propagator identities, and these identities enable to reduce certain loop bubble diagrams to lower loop diagrams, and often to tree- level ...
We study some aspects of conformal field theories at finite temperature in momentum space. We provide a formula for the Fourier transform of a thermal conformal block and study its analytic properties. In particular we show that the Fourier transform vanis ...
We consider various versions of the obstacle and thin-obstacle problems, we interpret them as variational inequalities, with non-smooth constraint, and prove that they satisfy a new constrained Lojasiewicz inequality. The difficulty lies in the fact that, ...
The problem of finding a k x k submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix A is of interest in a variety of applications. For example, it yields a quasi-best low-rank approximation constructed from the rows and columns of A. We show that such a submatrix can a ...
We study harmonic mappings of the form , where h is an analytic function. In particular, we are interested in the index (a generalized multiplicity) of the zeros of such functions. Outside the critical set of f, where the Jacobian of f is non-vanishing, it ...
We address the problem of minimizing a smooth function f0(x) over a compact set D defined by smooth functional constraints fi(x)≤0, i=1,…,m given noisy value measurements of fi(x). This problem arises in safety-critical applications, where certain paramete ...
The goal of derivative sampling is to reconstruct a signal from the samples of the function and of its first-order derivative. In this paper, we consider this problem over a shift-invariant reconstruction subspace generated by two compact-support functions ...
We consider minimizing a nonconvex, smooth function f on a Riemannian manifold M. We show that a perturbed version of Riemannian gradient descent algorithm converges to a second-order stationary point (and hence is able to escape saddle point ...
While optimization is well studied for real-valued functions f:RN→R, many physical problems are (partially) specified in terms of complex-valued functions fc:CN→CM. Current optimization packag ...
