Existence and consistency of Wasserstein barycenters
Probability Theory and Related Fields. 2017. P. 901–917.
Loubes J., Le Gouic T.
Based on the Fréchet mean, we define a notion of barycenter corresponding to a usual notion of statistical mean. We prove the existence of Wasserstein barycenters of random probabilities defined on a geodesic space (E, d). We also prove the consistency of this barycenter in a general setting, that includes taking barycenters of empirical versions of the probability measures or of a growing set of probability measures.

This paper investigates the problem of statistical inference for a mixture distribution consisting of a discrete and a continuous component, with a particular focus on the class of rational-infinitely divisible distributions. We consider non-parametric estimation of both components of the mixture as well as the quasi-L{é}vy measure, assuming that the mixture belongs to the class ...

A noncommutative projective variety is defined, following Artin and Zhang, by a graded coherent algebra 𝐴. The category of coherent sheaves is then the quotient qgr(𝐴) of the category of finitely presented graded modules by the subcategory of torsion modules. We consider the categorical and polynomial entropies of the Serre twist, that is, of the ...

If a symmetric multilinear algebra is weakly nil, then it is Engel. This result may be regarded as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the well-known Jacobian theorem, which states that if a polynomial mapping has a polynomial inverse, then its Jacobian matrix is invertible. This refines a theorem of Gerstenhaber and partially answers a question posed ...

In this paper, we construct strong approximations for discrete-time Markov chains weakly converging to continuous diffusion processes, as well as for their perturbed counterparts. Under the assumption of bounded coefficients, we construct closely coupled versions of these processes on a shared probability space. In particular, for both non-degenerate and degenerate cases, we maximize the probability ...

A fast simulation of the detector response is a vital task in high-energy physics (HEP). Traditional Monte-Carlo methods form the backbone of modern particle physics simulation software but are computationally expensive. We present a machine-learning-based approach to fast simulation of the Focusing Aerogel Ring Imaging Cherenkov (FARICH) detector response. Given a particle track and momentum, ...

In this paper the structural stability of generic families of vector fields of the PC-HC class on the two-dimensional sphere is proved. A classification of these families up to moderate equivalence in neighborhoods of their large bifurcation supports is presented, based on such invariants as the configuration and the characteristic set. The realization lemma is proved. ...

A vertex subset of a graph is called a \textit{distance-$k$ independent set} if the distance between any two of its distinct vertices is at least $k + 1$. For all $n,k \geq 1$, we determine the minimum possible number of inclusion-wise maximal distance-$k$ independent sets among all $n$-vertex trees. It equals~$n$ if $n \leq k ...

We introduce an explicit class of tempered Laurent polynomials in the sense of Villegas and Doran--Kerr in n⩽4 variables including all Landau--Ginzburg models for smooth Fano threefolds with very ample anticanonical class. We check that it contains Landau--Ginzburg models for various Fano fourfolds which are complete intersections in smooth toric varieties and Grassmannians of planes, ...

Comprehensive data on natural hazards and their consequences are crucial for effective for risk assessment, adaptation planning, and emergency response. However, many countries face challenges with fragmented, inconsistent, and inaccessible data, particularly regarding local-scale events. To address this data gap in Russia, we developed an end-to-end processing pipeline that scrapes news from various online sources, ...

We investigate the spatial overlap of successive spin configurations in Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations using the local Metropolis algorithm and the Svendsen-Wang and Wolff cluster algorithms. We examine the dynamics of these algorithms for two models in different universality classes: the Ising model and the Potts model with three components. The overlap of two ...

We deal with the global in time weak solutions to the 1D compressible Navier-Stokes system of equations for large discontinuous initial data and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions of three standard types. We prove the Lipschitz-type continuous dependence of the solution $(\eta,u,\theta)$, in a norm slightly stronger than $L^{2,\infty}(Q)\times L^2(Q)\times L^2(Q)$, on the initial data $(\eta^0,u^0,e^0)$ in a ...

We investigate the interplay between the dimension of the space of static potentials and the geometric and topological structure of the underlying static three-manifold. A partial classification of boundaryless static manifolds is obtained in terms of this dimension. We also treat the case of static manifolds with boundary. In particular, we prove that if a ...

Label prediction in neural networks (NNs) has O(n) complexity proportional to the number of classes. This holds true for classification using fully connected layers and cosine similarity with some set of class prototypes. In this paper we show that if NN latent space (LS) geometry is known and possesses specific properties, label prediction complexity can ...

The article analyzes the idea of a multiplicity of worlds as virtual ones. Gained its popularity in the second half of the 20th century, such an approach states that the universe can be considered as information – as a set of bits and logical operations with them (or as program code).
The hypothesis substantiates the information ...

Non-convexities and discrete choices have become important modeling tools in modern macroeconomics. Unfortunately, the existence of competitive equilibria in the presence of such non-convexities is not always ensured, and most results on the existence of equilibrium that can be found in the literature do not directly apply to models used in applications.
In this paper, we explain ...

This study addresses a class of linear mixed-integer programming (MILP) problems that involve uncertainty in the objective function parameters. The parameters are assumed to form a random vector, whose probability distribution can only be observed through a finite training data set. Unlike most of the related studies in the literature, we also consider uncertainty in ...

We study metrizability of compact sets in spaces of Radon measures with the weak topology. It is shown that if all compacta in a given completely regular topological space are metrizable, then every uniformly tight compact set in the space of Radon measures on this space is also metrizable. It is proved that the property ...

There are several approaches for evaluating conflict within belief functions. In this paper, we develop one of them based on axioms and show its connections to the decomposition approach. We describe a class of conflict measures satisfying this system of axioms and show that measuring conflict can be realized through the clusterization of a body ...

The main thesis of the article is that the idea of A. Meinong's interpretation of the
concept of existence as an eccentric and deliberately implausible concept that implies absurd
consequences is unjustified. The author shows that, being correctly presented, this
approach not only does not contradict our typical and natural intuitions, but corresponds to
them more than any other ...

The main point of the article is that the Russellian analysis of the concept of existence does
not provide a significant economy of ontology in comparison with the Meinongian one. The reason
lies in the unavoidable need to preserve the possibility of numerical distinguishing between various
nonexistent (unrealized) objects. For example, Sherlock Holmes is definitely not the same ...

Contemporary philosophical anthropology fluctuates
between, on the one hand, the positivist rejection of
the metaphysically loaded concepts of “essence” and
“existence” in their theoretical constructions and, on
the other, the essentialist traditions in which these concepts have played and continue to play a decisive role.
Positivism rejects the ethical component of philosophical anthropology, reducing it to relativism. Essentialism
nourishes the metaphysical ...

A competent acquaintance with Martin Heidegger’s major works, such as “Being and Time”, is impossible without understanding the primeval methodological foundations of this German thinker, – or, in other words, without comprehending the principal connection between his existential analysis and the destruction of the European metaphysical knowledge. The inevitable connection of ontic and ontological levels ...

The subject of this article is Heidegger's existentially-ontological consideration of human being (Dasein) as the transcending structure. This article proves the conclusion that the interpretation of Heidegger's intentional consciousness as "transcendence"
means going beyond Husserl's phenomenology. Consequently, raising an issue of intentionality as a specific kind of Being (rather than cognition) Heidegger in contrast with Husserl ...
