Intrinsic Shape LDA With Application to Body Human Shapes Classification

open access: yesStatistical Analysis and Data Mining: An ASA Data Science Journal, Volume 19, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Advancements in 3D scanning and cloud infrastructure enable the acquisition and analysis of high‐density body surface datasets. In this work, we propose a novel methodology that extends linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to Kendall's shape space for the classification of 3D objects, specifically human body shapes.

Cloud‐Plots for Spherical Data With Applications to Glaucoma and Gait Cyclograms

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 18-19, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In several biomedical contexts, the need for diagnostic analyses of data that is a set of directions in 2, 3, or higher dimensions arises, as for instance, when considering the relative movement of body parts like the limbs, or looking at anatomical orientations.

A characterization of harmonic foliations by the volume preserving property of the normal geodesic flow

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2002
We prove that a Riemannian foliation with the flat normal connection on a Riemannian manifold is harmonic if and only if the geodesic flow on the normal bundle preserves the Riemannian volume form of the canonical metric defined by the adapted connection.

Kazdan–Warner obstructions for a fourth‐order boundary problem

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We derive Kazdan–Warner type identities for the boundary problem of prescribing nonconstant interior Q$Q$ curvature and boundary T$T$ curvature on the upper hemisphere S+4${\mathbb {S}}^{4}_{+}$ by a conformal change of the standard metric.

Mirror descent on Riemannian manifolds

open access: yesAnalysis and Applications
Mirror Descent (MD) is a scalable first-order method widely used in large-scale optimization, with applications in image processing, policy optimization, and neural network training. This paper generalizes MD to optimization on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we develop a Riemannian Mirror Descent (RMD) framework via reparameterization and further

An EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for the mapping class group

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 133, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract We construct a boundary for the mapping class group Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ of a surface S$S$ of finite type. The action of Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ on this boundary is minimal, strongly proximal and topologically free. The boundary is the boundary of an EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$.
