We show that every finite dimensional Hausdorff (not necessarily paracompact, not necessarily second countable) $C^r$-manifold can be embedded into a weakly complete vector space, i.e. a locally convex topological vector space of the form ${\mathbb R}^I$ for an uncountable index set $I$ and determine the minimal cardin…

We prove a theorem of Hadamard-Stoker type: a connected locally convex complete hypersurface immersed in $H^n \times R$ (n>1), where $H^n$ is n-dimensional hyperbolic space, is embedded and homeomorphic either to the n-sphere or to $R^n$. In the latter case it is either a vertical graph over a convex domain in $H^n$ or…

A spherical set is called convex if for every pair of its points there is at least one minimal geodesic segment that joins these points and lies in the set. We prove that for n >= 3 a complete locally-convex (topological) immersion of a connected (n-1)-manifold into the n-sphere is a surjection onto the boundary of a c…

In this paper, we study locally strongly convex centroaffine hypersurfaces with parallel cubic form with respect to the Levi-Civita connection of the centroaffine metric. As the main result, we obtain a complete classification of such centroaffine hypersurfaces. The result of this paper is a centroaffine version of the…

We prove three facts about intrinsic geometry of surfaces in a normed (Minkowski) space. When put together, these facts demonstrate a rather intriguing picture. We show that (1) geodesics on saddle surfaces (in a space of any dimension) behave as they are expected to: they have no conjugate points and thus minimize len…

Given any K and N we show that there exists a compact geodesic metric measure space satisfying locally the CD(0,4) condition but failing CD(K,N) globally. The space with this property is a suitable non convex subset of R^2 equipped with the l^\infty-norm and the Lebesgue measure. Combining many such spaces gives a (non…

Paper surveys balanced metrics and proves a geodesic convexity result.

This paper concerns the evolution of complete noncompact locally uniformly convex hypersurface in Euclidean space by curvature flow, for which the normal speed $Φ$ is given by a power $β\geq 1$ of a monotone symmetric and homogeneous of degree one function $F$ of the principal curvatures. Under the assumption that $F$ …

Characterizes a specific type of convex curves on a 3-sphere.

In the 1920's Marston Morse developed what is now known as Morse theory trying to study the topology of the space of closed curves on S^2. We propose to attack a very similar problem, which 80 years later remains open, about the topology of the space of closed curves on S^2 which are locally convex (i.e., without infle…

Matrix completion is a basic machine learning problem that has wide applications, especially in collaborative filtering and recommender systems. Simple non-convex optimization algorithms are popular and effective in practice. Despite recent progress in proving various non-convex algorithms converge from a good initial …

Investigates properties of a pseudometric on domains in Euclidean space, linking it to hyperbolic geometry.

We study the evolution of convex complete non-compact graphs by positive powers of Gauss curvature. We show that if the initial complete graph has a local uniform convexity, then the graph evolves by any positive power of Gauss curvature for all time. In particular, the initial graph is not necessarily differentiable.

In the paper, the martingales and super-martingales relative to a convex set of equivalent measures are systematically studied. The notion of local regular super-martingale relative to a convex set of equivalent measures is introduced and the necessary and sufficient conditions of the local regularity of it in the disc…

In this paper, we establish a general inequality for locally strongly convex centroaffine hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ involving the norm of the covariant derivatives of both the difference tensor $K$ and the Tchebychev vector field $T$. Our result is optimal in that, applying our recent classification for local…

In this paper, we study locally strongly convex affine hyperspheres in the unimodular affine space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which, as Riemannian manifolds, are locally isometric to the Riemannian product of two Riemannian manifolds both possessing constant sectional curvatures. As the main result, a complete classification o…

We construct compactifications for median spaces with compact intervals, generalising Roller boundaries of ${\rm CAT}(0)$ cube complexes. Examples of median spaces with compact intervals include all finite rank median spaces and all proper median spaces of infinite rank. Our methods also work for general median algebra…

In the paper, we introduce the notion of a local regular supermartingale relative to a convex set of equivalent measures and prove for it the necessary and sufficient conditions of optional Doob decomposition in the discrete case. This Theorem is a generalization of the famous Doob decomposition onto the case of superm…

We prove that elliptic tubes over properly convex domains of the real projective space are C-convex and complete Kobayashi-hyperbolic. We also study a natural construction of complexification of convex real projective manifolds.

Measure homology was introduced by Thurston in order to compute the simplicial volume of hyperbolic manifolds. Berlanga endowed measure homology with a structure of graded locally convex (possibly non-Hausdorff) topological vector space. In this note we completely characterize Berlanga's topology on measure homology of…

In this paper we develop a new framework that captures the common landscape underlying the common non-convex low-rank matrix problems including matrix sensing, matrix completion and robust PCA. In particular, we show for all above problems (including asymmetric cases): 1) all local minima are also globally optimal; 2) …

We prove that any complete immersed two-sided mean convex translating soliton $Σ\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ for the mean curvature flow is convex. As a corollary it follows that an entire mean convex graphical translating soliton in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is the axisymmetric "bowl soliton". We also show that if the mean curvature of…

Study on convex surfaces in Minkowski space, proving completeness and incompleteness conditions.

We show that for a very general class of curvature functions defined in the positive cone, the problem of finding a complete strictly locally convex hypersurface in $H^n+1$ satisfying $f(κ)=σ\in(0, 1)$ with a prescribed asymptotic boundary $Γ$ at infinity has at least one smooth solution with uniformly bounded hyperbol…

Matrix completion is a well-studied problem with many machine learning applications. In practice, the problem is often solved by non-convex optimization algorithms. However, the current theoretical analysis for non-convex algorithms relies heavily on the assumption that every entry is observed with exactly the same pro…

We prove that the torsion of any closed space curve which bounds a simply connected locally convex surface vanishes at least 4 times. This answers a question of Rosenberg related to a problem of Yau on characterizing the boundary of positively curved disks in Euclidean space. Furthermore, our result generalizes the 4 v…

This paper is devoted to $C^2$ a priori estimates for strictly locally convex radial graphs with prescribed Weingarten curvature and boundary in space forms. By constructing two-step continuity process and applying degree theory arguments, existence results in space forms are established for prescribed Gauss curvature …

Let $S$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type. Let $(k_+,k_-)$ be a pair of negative numbers and let $(g_+, g_-)$ be a pair of marked metrics over $S$ of constant curvature equal to $k_+$ and $k_-$ respectively. Using a functional introduced by Bonsante, Mondello \& Schlenker, we show that there exists a …

We study isometric actions of tree automorphism groups on the infinite-dimensional hyperbolic spaces. On the one hand, we exhibit a general one-parameter family of such representations and analyse the corresponding equivariant embeddings of the trees, showing that they are convex-cocompact and asymptotically isometric.…

In this paper we develop a global correspondence between immersed horospherically convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space and complete conformal metrics on domains in the sphere. We establish results on when the hyperbolic Gauss map is injective and when an immersed horospherically convex hypersurface can be unfolded …

We introduce a new family of affine metrics on a locally strictly convex surface $M$ in affine 4-space. Then, we define the symmetric and antisymmetric equiaffine planes associated with each metric. We show that if $M$ is immersed in a locally strictly convex hyperquadric, then the symmetric and the antisymmetric plane…
