Study shows non-symmetric convex sets have full boundary limits.

The paper proves a Gaussian measure's concavity for symmetric convex sets up to a factor of 2.

The main result implies that a proper convex subset of an irreducible higher rank symmetric space cannot have Zariski dense stabilizer.

The paper proves that symmetric sets with minimal Gaussian surface area are nearly convex cylinders.

In this paper, a correspondence via duality is established between the set of locally strongly convex symmetric equiaffine hyperspheres and the set of minimal symmetric Lagrangian submanifolds in a certain complex space form. By using this correspondence theorem, we are able to provide an alternative proof of the class…

We show that every limit point of a Zariski dense discrete subgroup $Γ$ of the isometry group of a symmetric space of noncompact type is conical if and only if $Γ$ is convex cocompact.

The paper proposes a conjecture for a symmetric version of Ehrhard's inequality.

In this paper we study the classification of ancient convex solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\R^{n+1}$. An open problem related to the classification of type II singularities is whether a convex translating solution is $k$-rotationally symmetric for some integer $2\le k\le n$, namely whether its level set is a …

Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into higher-rank semisimple Lie groups are representations with finite kernel and discrete image that have strong analogies with convex cocompact representations into rank-one Lie groups. However, the most naive analogy fails: generically, Anosov representations do not a…

This study finds the shape of centrally symmetric octahedra with specific angles.

The paper explores symmetric losses for better learning from corrupted labels.

Let $Σ$ be a $C^3$ compact symmetric convex hypersurface in $\mathbf{R}^{8}$. For some special cases, we prove that when $Σ$ carries exactly four geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then all of them must be symmetric.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the isoperimetric inequality for symmetric log-convex probability measures on the line. Using geometric arguments we first re-prove that extremal sets in the isoperimetric inequality are intervals or complement of intervals (a result due to Bobkov and Houdré). Then we give a quan…

Characterizes symmetric Bernoulli distributions with minimal convex sums.

We study the curve diffusion flow for closed curves immersed in the Minkowski plane $\mathcal{M}$, which is equivalent to the Euclidean plane endowed with a closed, symmetric, convex curve called an indicatrix that scales the length of a vector in $\mathcal{M}$ depending on its length. The indiactrix $\partial\mathcal{…

New algorithm for online optimization over symmetric cones, unifying previous methods.

Paper finds smooth convex solutions to curvature problem.

This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of math.DG/9810146. Based on this investigation we provide proofs of the Hodge theoretic results …

In this paper, a new approach of defining Steiner symmetrization of coercive convex functions is proposed and some fundamental properties of the new Steiner symmetrization are proved. Further, using the new Steiner symmetrization, we give a different approach to prove a functional version of the Blaschke-Santalo inequa…

The study confirms two cases of the convex body isoperimetric conjecture in the plane.

We develop a theory of planar, origin-symmetric, convex domains that are inextensible with respect to lattice covering, that is, domains such that augmenting them in any way allows fewer domains to cover the same area. We show that origin-symmetric inextensible domains are exactly the origin-symmetric convex domains wi…

New concept of coarse medians for higher rank symmetric spaces.

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…

Harmonic functions on compact symmetric spaces exhibit strong convexity properties.

This paper proves a curvature entropy inequality for non-symmetric convex bodies.

New divergence defined in Information Geometry mimics Riemannian geodesics.

In this paper we revisit the anisotropic isoperimetric and the Brunn-Minkowski inequalities for convex sets. The best known constant $C(n)=Cn^{7}$ depending on the space dimension $n$ in both inequalities is due to Segal [\ref{bib:Seg.}]. We improve that constant to $Cn^6$ for convex sets and to $Cn^5$ for centrally sy…

Symmetric nonnegative matrix factorization has found abundant applications in various domains by providing a symmetric low-rank decomposition of nonnegative matrices. In this paper we propose a Frank-Wolfe (FW) solver to optimize the symmetric nonnegative matrix factorization problem under a simplicial constraint, whic…

New algorithm learns HMM parameters on Riemannian manifolds.

The paper proves a convex polytope conjecture with specific symmetry conditions.

When a discrete group admits a convex-cocompact action on a non-compact rank-one symmetric space, there is a natural lower bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set, given by the Ahlfors regular conformal dimension of the boundary of the group. We show that equality is achieved precisely when the group stabili…

Compact rank one symmetric spaces are rigid under certain curvature conditions.

We survey some basic geometric properties of the Funk metric of a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, we study its geodesics, its topology, its metric balls, its convexity properties, its perpendicularity theory and its isometries. The Hilbert metric is a symmetrization of the Funk metric, and we show some pro…

The study proves properties of 4D projective manifolds and builds non-hyperbolic examples.

Under the assumption that the X-ray transform over symmetric solenoidal 2-tensors is injective, we prove that smooth compact connected manifolds with strictly convex boundary, no conjugate points and a hyperbolic trapped set are locally marked boundary rigid.

We rigorously prove statistical physics predictions for non-convex GLMs in high dimensions.

The study examines nilpotent similarity structures on manifolds and their properties.

We propose two practical non-convex approaches for learning near-isometric, linear embeddings of finite sets of data points. Given a set of training points $\mathcal{X}$, we consider the secant set $S(\mathcal{X})$ that consists of all pairwise difference vectors of $\mathcal{X}$, normalized to lie on the unit sphere. …

The article considers the problem of existence and uniqueness of centrally symmetrical convex body for which the projection curvature radius function coincides with a given flag function. A necessary and sufficient condition is found that ensures a positive answer. An algorithm for construction the body in question is …
