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 ...

We study the evolution equation where is the Dirichlet-Neumann operator of a decreasing family of Riemannian manifolds with boundary . We derive a lower bound for the solution of such an equation, and apply it to a quantitative density estimate for the res ...
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 ...
The goal of this thesis is the development and the analysis of numerical methods for problems where the unknown is a curve on a smooth manifold. In particular, the thesis is structured around the three following problems: homotopy continuation, curve inter ...

In algorithms for solving optimization problems constrained to a smooth manifold, retractions are a well-established tool to ensure that the iterates stay on the manifold. More recently, it has been demonstrated that retractions are a useful concept for ot ...

This article presents an overview of robot learning and adaptive control applications that can benefit from a joint use of Riemannian geometry and probabilistic representations. The roles of Riemannian manifolds, geodesics and parallel transport in robotic ...

We prove equidistribution at shrinking scales for the monochromatic ensemble on a compact Riemannian manifold of any dimension. This ensemble on an arbitrary manifold takes a slowly growing spectral window in order to synthesize a random function. With hig ...
The purpose of this thesis is to provide an intrinsic proof of a Gauss-Bonnet-Chern formula for complete Riemannian manifolds with finitely many conical singularities and asymptotically conical ends. A geometric invariant is associated to the link of both ...
Mechanical stimuli are ubiquitous in the human body. In contrast to biochemical stimuli such as pH, redox, hypoxia or enzymes as well as exogenous stimuli such as magnetic fields, temperature or ultrasound, endogenous biomechanical stimuli have only receiv ...
