Some new results are presented concerning the search and approximation of solutions of equations in metric spaces using functionals strictly subordinated to a convergent series and functionals compatible with a convergent series. These classes of functiona ...
We present the general notion of Borel fields of metric spaces and show some properties of such fields. Then we make the study specific to the Borel fields of proper CAT(0) spaces and we show that the standard tools we need behave in a Borel way. We also i ...
In this article, we disprove a conjecture of Goemans and Linial; namely, that every negative type metric embeds into ℓ1 with constant distortion. We show that for an arbitrarily small constant δ > 0, for all large enough n, there is an n-point negative ...
Multi-party fair exchange (MFE) and fair secure multi-party computation (fair SMPC) are under-studied fields of research, with practical importance. We examine MFE scenarios where every participant has some item, and at the end of the protocol, either ever ...
We derive an algorithm of optimal complexity which determines whether a given matrix is a Cauchy matrix, and which exactly recovers the Cauchy points defining a Cauchy matrix from the matrix entries. Moreover, we study how to approximate a given matrix by ...
We consider the capacitated -center problem. In this problem we are given a finite set of locations in a metric space and each location has an associated non-negative integer capacity. The goal is to choose (open) locations (called centers) and assign each ...
On the identity component of the universal Teichmuller space endowed with the Takhtajan-Teo topology, the geodesics of the Weil Petersson metric are shown to exist for all time. This component is naturally a subgroup of the quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of ...
This paper proposes a novel feature extraction framework from mutli-party multimodal conversation for inference of personality traits and emergent leadership. The proposed framework represents multi modal features as the combination of each participant’s n ...
In this paper we make a survey of some recent developments of the theory of Sobolev spaces W-1,W-q (X, d, m), 1 < q < infinity, in metric measure spaces (X, d, m). In the final part of the paper we provide a new proof of the reflexivity of the Sobolev spac ...
This article provides an overview of various notions of shape spaces, including the space of parametrized and unparametrized curves, the space of immersions, the diffeomorphism group and the space of Riemannian metrics. We discuss the Riemannian metrics th ...
