We generalize the Riesz potential of a compact domain in Rm\mathbb{R}^{m} by introducing a renormalization of the rαmr^{α-m}-potential for α0α\le0. This can be considered as generalization of the dual mixed volumes of convex bodies as introduced by Lutwak. We then study the points where the extreme values of the (renorm…

In the covariate shift learning scenario, the training and test covariate distributions differ, so that a predictor's average loss over the training and test distributions also differ.

Let (X,L) be a polarized Kähler manifold that admits an extremal Kähler metric in c1(L). We show that on a nearby polarized deformation that preserves the symmetry induced by the extremal vector field of (X,L), the modified K-energy is bounded from below. This generalizes a result of Chen, Székelyhidi and Tosatti to ex…

Furthermore, when the initial data is invariant under t…

An almost Kähler structure is {\it extremal} if the Hermitian scalar curvature is a Killing potential [29]. When the almost complex structure is integrable it coincides with extremal Kähler metric in the sense of Calabi [8]. We observe that the existence of an extremal {\it toric} almost Kähler structure of involutive …
