This study proposes an analytical formulation in complex coordinates to synthesise three‐dimensional single‐shell dielectric lens surfaces. An exact formulation based on geometrical optics is developed, and the synthesis problem is modelled as a non ...

Monge–Ampère equations (MAEs) are fully nonlinear second‐order partial differential equations (PDEs), which are closely related to various fields including optimal transport (OT) theory, geometrical optics and affine geometry. Despite their significance,

Action functional as an early warning indicator in the space of probability measures via Schrödinger bridge. [PDF]
Abstract Critical transitions and tipping phenomena between two meta‐stable states in stochastic dynamical systems are a scientific issue. In this work, we expand the methodology of identifying the most probable transition pathway between two meta‐stable states with Onsager–Machlup action functional, to investigate the evolutionary transition dynamics ...

Geodesics in the space of relatively Kähler metrics
Abstract We derive the geodesic equation for relatively Kähler metrics on fibrations and prove that any two such metrics with fibrewise constant scalar curvature are joined by a unique smooth geodesic. We then show convexity of the log‐norm functional for this setting along geodesics, which yields simple proofs of Dervan and Sektnan's uniqueness result

Existence and Uniqueness of Green's Functions to Nonlinear Yamabe Problems
Abstract For a given finite subset S of a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g) whose Schouten curvature tensor belongs to a given cone, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of a conformal metric on M\S such that each point of S corresponds to an asymptotically flat end and that the Schouten tensor of the ...

Massively parallel computation of globally optimal shortest paths with curvature penalization
Abstract We address the computation of paths globally minimizing an energy involving their curvature, with given endpoints and tangents at these endpoints, according to models known as the Reeds‐Shepp car (reversible and forward variants), the Euler‐Mumford elasticae, and the Dubins car. For that purpose, we numerically solve degenerate variants of the

Pluricomplex Green's functions and Fano manifolds [PDF]
We show that if a Fano manifold does not admit Kahler-Einstein metrics then the Kahler potentials along the continuity method subconverge to a function with analytic singularities along a subvariety which solves the homogeneous complex Monge-Ampere ...

We study the relationship between structural properties of the two-dimensional nonconjugate subalgebras of the same rank of the Lie algebra of the Poincaré group P(1,4) and the properties of reduced equations for the (1+3)-dimensional homogeneous Monge ...

On subvarieties of singular quotients of bounded domains
Abstract Let X$X$ be a quotient of a bounded domain in Cn$\mathbb {C}^n$. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that every subvariety of X$X$ not included in the branch locus of the quotient map is of log‐general type in some orbifold sense. This generalizes a recent result by Boucksom and Diverio, which treated the case of compact, étale quotients ...

Early arrival waveform inversion (EWI) is an essential approach to obtaining velocity structures in near‐surface. Due to suffering from a cycle‐skipping issue, it is difficult to reach the global minima for conventional EWI with the misfit function of least‐squares norm (L2‐norm).
