We aim to construct the optimal solutions to the undiscounted continuous-time infinite horizon optimization problems, the objective functionals of which may be unbounded. We identify the condition under which the limit of the solutions to the finite horizon problems is optimal for the infinite horizon problems under th…

We generalize optimal inequalities of C. Loewner and M. Gromov, by proving lower bounds for the total volume in terms of the homotopy systole and the stable systole. Our main tool is the construction of an area-decreasing map to the Jacobi torus, streamlining and generalizing the construction of the first author in col…

We establish an optimal gluing construction for general relativistic initial data sets. The construction is optimal in two distinct ways. First, it applies to generic initial data sets and the required (generically satisfied) hypotheses are geometrically and physically natural. Secondly, the construction is completely …
We construct and study market models admitting optimal arbitrage. We say that a model admits optimal arbitrage if it is possible, in a zero-interest rate setting, starting with an initial wealth of 1 and using only positive portfolios, to superreplicate a constant c>1. The optimal arbitrage strategy is the strategy for…

Dictionaries are collections of vectors used for representations of random vectors in Euclidean spaces. Recent research on optimal dictionaries is focused on constructing dictionaries that offer sparse representations, i.e., -optimal representations. Here we consider the problem of finding optimal dictionaries …

Considering the classification problem, we summarize the nonparallel support vector machines with the nonparallel hyperplanes to two types of frameworks.
