Differentiable Randers‐Finsler Eikonal Solvers
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.

Abstract We propose a novel framework for the statistical modeling and analysis of the spatio‐temporal shape variability in articulated 4D (i.e., 3D + time) shapes such as human bodies and animals. We treat articulated 3D shapes, represented using parametric models such as SMPL or its variants, as elements of the product space of shape and pose ...

Difference and the Liberation of Sufficient Reason
Abstract The Principle of Sufficient Reason (PSR) holds that every event and entity can be explained by a sufficient reason or cause. Philosophers have long struggled with the question of the PSR's compatibility with freedom, for if what occurs or exists follows necessarily from its sufficient reason then it seems it could not have been otherwise ...

Density‐Valued ARMA Models by Spline Mixtures
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel framework for modeling time series of probability density functions by extending autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models to density‐valued data. The method is based on a transformation approach, wherein each density function on a compact domain [0,1]d$$ {\left[0,1\right]}^d $$ is approximated by a B‐spline ...

Stochastic Gradient Descent in High Dimensions for Multi‐Spiked Tensor PCA
ABSTRACT We study the high‐dimensional dynamics of online stochastic gradient descent (SGD) for the multi‐spiked tensor model. This multi‐index model arises from the tensor principal component analysis (PCA) problem with multiple spikes, where the goal is to estimate the unknown signal vectors within the N$N$‐dimensional unit sphere through maximum ...

Surface subgroups for cocompact lattices of isometries of H2n$\mathbb {H}^{2n}$
Abstract We prove the existence of surface subgroups within any cocompact lattice Γ$\Gamma$ in SO(2n,1)$\mathrm{SO}(2n,1)$ for n⩾2$n\geqslant 2$. This result addresses the cases missing from the work of Hamenstädt in 2015, who constructed surface subgroups in cocompact lattices for all other rank‐1 simple Lie groups of noncompact type.

Kuga–Satake Construction on Families of K3 Surfaces of Picard Rank 14
ABSTRACT The isometry between the type IV6 and the type II4 hermitian symmetric domains suggests a possible relation between suitable moduli spaces of K3 surfaces of Picard rank 14 and of polarized abelian 8‐folds with totally definite quaternion multiplication. We show how this isometry induces a geometrically meaningful map between such moduli spaces

Efficient Tensor Completion Algorithms for Highly Oscillatory Operators
ABSTRACT We address the problem of recovering highly oscillatory operators, represented as n×n$$ n\times n $$ matrices with a fixed set of observed entries. Given that these matrices can be well compressed by butterfly matrix decomposition of L=𝒪(logn) levels requiring only O(nlogn)$$ O\left(n\log n\right) $$ degrees of freedom, we propose a novel ...

ABSTRACT We apply the boundary‐only isothermal formulation of finite‐distance weak gravitational deflection to regular black holes, black‐bounces, traversable wormholes, non‐asymptotically flat backgrounds, and static quadrupolar spacetimes. The methodological advance is not a new value for a known bending angle.

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