Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Interpolated Adaptive Linear Reduced Order Modeling for Deformation Dynamics
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Linear reduced‐order modeling (ROM) is widely used for efficient simulation of deformation dynamics, but its accuracy is often limited by the fixed linearization of the reduced mapping. We propose a new adaptive strategy for linear ROM that allows the reduced mapping to vary dynamically in response to the evolving deformation state ...

Differentiable Randers‐Finsler Eikonal Solvers
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Fast and differentiable solvers for anisotropic and asymmetric distance fields are a key primitive in geometry processing, enabling gradient‐based optimization over metrics, drift fields, and downstream objectives that depend on geodesic distances and geodesics.

Circles of Confidence for Multi‐Label Geometry Completion
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Inside–outside classification is widely used for geometry processing tasks such as surface reconstruction, geometry completion, and calculating signed distance fields. We introduce a new integral formulation of this problem, which assigns confidence scores that points are inside or outside, given incomplete boundary geometry.

The Evolution of Interest‐Rate Models: From the Yield Curve to the Swaption Cube
Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Interest‐rate modelling is often taught as a catalogue of competing stochastic equations, obscuring why models were created and why modern sell‐side desks use several simultaneously. This survey reorganises the field around five layers of a pricing architecture: curve construction; arbitrage‐free dynamics; volatility‐smile representation ...

Measure‐valued processes for energy markets
Mathematical Finance, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 520-566, April 2025.Abstract We introduce a framework that allows to employ (non‐negative) measure‐valued processes for energy market modeling, in particular for electricity and gas futures. Interpreting the process' spatial structure as time to maturity, we show how the Heath–Jarrow–Morton approach can be translated to this framework, thus guaranteeing arbitrage free ...

Reinforcement Learning for Jump‐Diffusions, With Financial Applications
Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study continuous‐time reinforcement learning (RL) for stochastic control in which system dynamics are governed by jump‐diffusion processes. We formulate an entropy‐regularized exploratory control problem with stochastic policies to capture the exploration–exploitation balance essential for RL.

Equilibrium Reward for Liquidity Providers in Automated Market Makers
Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We find the equilibrium contract that an automated market maker (AMM) offers to their strategic liquidity providers (LPs) in order to maximize the order flow that gets processed by the venue. Our model is formulated as a leader–follower stochastic game, where the venue is the leader and a representative LP is the follower.

Relative Arbitrage Opportunities With Interactions Among N Investors
Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The relative arbitrage portfolio outperforms a benchmark portfolio over a given time‐horizon with probability one. With market price of risk processes depending on the market portfolio and investors, this paper analyzes the multi‐agent optimization of relative arbitrage opportunities in the coupled system of market and wealth dynamics.
