New displacement technique vanishes bounded cohomology in all degrees.

The paper shows subexponential growth and displacement bounds for random walks on graphs with bounded degrees and non-negative curvature.

In this paper we give an explicit description of the bounded displacement isometries of a class of spaces that includes the Riemannian nilmanifolds. The class of spaces consists of metric spaces (and thus includes Finsler manifolds) on which an exponential solvable Lie group acts transitively by isometries. The bounded…

We prove that the displacement energy of a stable coisotropic submanifold is bounded away from zero if the ambient symplectic manifold is closed, rational and satisfies a mild topological condition.

This paper optimizes functions of probability measures using particle gradient descent for displacement convex functions.

The low displacement rank (LDR) framework for structured matrices represents a matrix through two displacement operators and a low-rank residual. Existing use of LDR matrices in deep learning has applied fixed displacement operators encoding forms of shift invariance akin to convolutions. We introduce a class of LDR ma…

Alexandrov spaces with non-negative curvature are characterized by the matrix displacement convexity of an entropy tensor.

We construct using Lefschetz fibrations a large family of contact manifolds with the following properties: Any bounding contact embedding into an exact symplectic manifold satisfying a mild topological assumption is non-displaceable and generically has infinitely many leaf-wise intersection points. Moreover, any Stein …

Lower bounds for surface area and volume of convex hypersurfaces.

Study compares synthetic and distributional Ricci curvature bounds.

Recently low displacement rank (LDR) matrices, or so-called structured matrices, have been proposed to compress large-scale neural networks. Empirical results have shown that neural networks with weight matrices of LDR matrices, referred as LDR neural networks, can achieve significant reduction in space and computation…

In this paper we give a new proof of the (strong) displacement convexity of a class of integral functionals defined on a compact Riemannian manifold satisfying a lower Ricci curvature bound. Our approach does not rely on existence and regularity results for optimal transport maps on Riemannian manifolds, but it is base…

In this paper we prove the Conley conjecture and the almost existence theorem in a neighborhood of a closed nowhere coisotropic submanifold under certain natural assumptions on the ambient symplectic manifold. Essential to the proofs is a displacement principle for such submanifolds. Namely, we show that a topologicall…

One of the most well-known results in the theory of optimal transportation is the equivalence between the convexity of the entropy functional with respect to the Riemannian Wasserstein metric and the Ricci curvature lower bound of the underlying Riemannian manifold. There are also generalizations of this result to the …

PIE-PINN estimates elastic properties from noisy, low-res displacement data.

In this paper, it is shown that every point in the hyperbolic 3-space is moved at a distance at least $0.5\log\left(12\cdot 3^{k-1}-3\right)$ by one of the isometries of length at most $k\geq 2$ in a 2-generator Klenian group $Γ$ which is torsion-free, not co-compact and contains no parabolic. Also some lower bounds fo…

Nonnegative sectional curvature linked to matrix displacement convexity.

We define the symplectic displacement energy of a non-empty subset of a compact symplectic manifold as the infimum of the Hofer-like norm [5] of symplectic diffeomorphisms that displace the set. We show that this energy (like the usual displacement energy defined using Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms) is a strictly positiv…

The Homogeneity Conjecture explores if constant displacement isometries imply homogeneous spaces.

Minimal displacement set in weakly systolic complexes is systolic and embeds isometrically.

We prove a coisotropic intersection result and deduce the following: 1. Lower bounds on the displacement energy of a subset of a symplectic manifold, in particular a sharp stable energy-Gromov-width inequality. 2. A stable non-squeezing result for neighborhoods of products of unit spheres. 3. Existence of a "badly sque…

Study on curves in Riemannian surfaces, focusing on total intrinsic curvature.

We discuss in this article a property of action of groups by isometries called "well displacing". An action is said to be well displacing, if the displacement function is equivalent to the the displacement function for the action on the Cayley graph. We relate this property with the fact that orbit maps are quasi-isome…

In the present paper, we prove that a lower bound on the $1$-weighted Ricci curvature is equivalent to a convexity of entropies on the Wasserstein space. Based on such characterization, we provide some interpolation inequalities such as the Pr'ekopa-Leindler inequality, the Borel-Branscamp-Lieb inequality, and the Brun…

New method proves absolute continuity of Wasserstein barycenters on manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bound.

This paper explores the possibility that asset prices, especially those traded in large volume on public exchanges, might comply with specific physical laws of motion and probability. The paper first examines the basic dynamics of asset price displacement and finds one can model this dynamic as a harmonic oscillator at…

Random walks on hyperbolic spaces follow predictable large deviation principles.

Characterizes a new curvature bound with convexity of entropies.

In this article we study the Hamiltonian non-displaceability of Gauss images of isoparametric hypersurfaces in the spheres as Lagrangian submanifolds embedded in complex hyperquadrics.

New curvature measure for optimal transport with specific cost function.

Training models to prefer certain responses can unintentionally shift probability to harmful ones.

Sparse elasticity reconstruction from local displacements reduces error.

Suppose $δ$ is a generic immersed closed curve in the boundary of a 3-manifold M and $δ$ is null-homotopic in M. Then $δ$ can be displaced by a height function in a collar of the boundary so that the resulting simple closed curve in the collar bounds a disk in M.

The null energy condition is characterized via convexity of entropy in Lorentzian manifolds.

New curvature-dimension condition for Lagrangians on manifolds.

This paper proposes a representational model for image pairs such as consecutive video frames that are related by local pixel displacements, in the hope that the model may shed light on motion perception in primary visual cortex (V1). The model couples the following two components: (1) the vector representations of loc…

We generalize Lagrangian Floer cohomology to sequences of Lagrangian correspondences. For sequences related by the geometric composition of Lagrangian correspondences we establish an isomorphism of the Floer cohomologies. We give applications to calculations of Floer cohomology, displaceability of Lagrangian correspond…

Graphs with bounded degrees and non-negative Ollivier-Ricci curvature have subexponential growth and diffusive random walk.

In this paper we make the first steps towards developing a theory of intersections of coisotropic submanifolds, similar to that for Lagrangian submanifolds. For coisotropic submanifolds satisfying a certain stability requirement we establish persistence of coisotropic intersections under Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms, ak…

A conservative drifting method improves generative modeling by using KDE gradients, proving convergence rates.

Paper derives formulas for surface variations in shell theory.

We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show that a local Poincaré inequality and the measure contraction property follow from t…

We apply the barcodes of persistent homology theory to the Chekanov-Eliashberg algebra of a Legendrian submanifold to deduce displacement energy bounds for arbitrary Legendrians. We do not require the full Chekanov-Eliashberg algebra to admit an augmentation as we linearize the algebra only below a certain action level…

We define a notion of a measured length space X having nonnegative N-Ricci curvature, for N finite, or having infinity-Ricci curvature bounded below by K, for K a real number. The definitions are in terms of the displacement convexity of certain functions on the associated Wasserstein space P_2(X) of probability measur…

We prove an inequality that must be satisfied by displacement of generators of free Fuchsian groups, which is the two-dimensional version of the $\log (2k-1)$ Theorem for Kleinian groups due to Anderson-Canary-Culler-Shalen. As applications, we obtain quantitative results on the geometry of hyperbolic surfaces such as …

An action selector associates, in a suitable way, to each compactly supported Hamiltonian on a symplectic manifold an action value of the Hamiltonian. Action selectors are known to exist for a broad class of symplectic manifolds. We show how the existence of an action selector leads to sharp energy capacity inequalitie…
