We propose a simple yet powerful framework for modeling integer-valued data, such as counts, scores, and rounded data. The data-generating process is defined by Simultaneously Transforming and Rounding (STAR) a continuous-valued process, which produces a flexible family of integer-valued distributions capable of modeli…
We derive a closed formula for a star-product on complex projective space and on the domain SU(n+1)/S(U(1)×U(n)) using a completely elementary construction: Starting from the standard star-product of Wick type on Cn+1∖{0} and performing a quantum analogue of Marsden-Weinstein reduction, we ca…
The spherical Radon transform on the unit sphere can be regarded as a member of the analytic family of suitably normalized generalized cosine transforms. We derive new formulas for these transforms and apply them to study classes of intersections bodies in convex geometry.
The Hodge star mean curvature flow on a 3-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold is a natural nonlinear dispersive curve flow in geometric analysis. A curve flow is integrable if the local differential invariants of a solution to the curve flow evolve according to a soliton equation. In this paper, we sho…
We analyze a class of estimators based on convex relaxation for solving high-dimensional matrix decomposition problems. The observations are noisy realizations of a linear transformation X of the sum of an approximately) low rank matrix Θ⋆ with a second matrix Γ⋆ endowed with a complementary …
In this article, we introduce the notion of star-Ricci tensors in the real hypersurfaces of complex quadric Qm. It is proved that there exist no Hopf hypersurfaces in Qm,m≥3, with commuting star-Ricci tensor or parallel star-Ricci tensor. As a generalization of star-Einstein metric, star-Ricci solitons on M …
We compare the star surgery operations introduced in [KS] to the generalized rational blow-down. We show that star surgery shares the properties that make rational blow-down useful for constructions of small exotic symplectic 4-manifolds. Then we show that star surgery operations provide a strictly more general class o…
Let K be a nontrivial knot in S3 and t(K) its tunnel number. For any (p≥2,q)-slope in the torus boundary of a closed regular neighborhood of K in S3, denoted by K⋆, it is a nontrivial cable knot in S3. Though t(K⋆)≤t(K)+1, Example 1.1 in Section 1 shows that in some cas…

Given a bordified space, Karlsson defines an incidence geometry of stars at infinity. These stars and their incidence are closely related to well-understood objects when the space is hyperbolic, CAT(0), or a bounded convex domain with the Hilbert metric. A question stemming from Karlsson's original paper was whether or…
We define the notion of a formal connection for a smooth family of star products with fixed underlying symplectic structure. Such a formal connection allows one to relate star products at different points in the family. This generalizes the formal Hitchin connection introduced by the first author. We establish a necess…

We propose an explicit construction of the deformation quantization of the general second-class constrained system, which is covariant with respect to local coordinates on the phase space. The approach is based on constructing the effective first-class constraint (gauge) system equivalent to the original second-class o…
