  1. 1. Convexity, Currents, and Lelong numbers

    Author : Aron Lagerberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; complex analysis; convex analysis; currents; Lelong numbers; tropical geometry; L^2-estaimtes; Legendre transform; intersection theory; real Monge-Ampere operators; plurisubharmonic functions; integrability index; L^2-estaimtes;

    Abstract : This thesis treats different aspects of convexity, both real and complex. On the real side, we study convexity in relation with certain currents. On the complex side, we study the singularities of plurisubharmonic functions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Asynchronous First-Order Algorithms for Large-Scale Optimization : Analysis and Implementation

    Author : Arda Aytekin; Mikael Johansson; Lin Xiao; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; convex; optimization; asynchronous; algorithms; parallel; distributed; large-scale; big data; software; serverless; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Developments in communication and data storage technologies have made large-scale data collection more accessible than ever. The transformation of this data into insight or decisions typically involves solving numerical optimization problems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Positive vector bundles in complex and convex geometry

    Author : Hossein Raufi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nakano positivity; vanishing theorems; Prekopa theorem; Griffiths positivity; convex geometry; Ohsawa-Takegoshi extension theorem; dbar-equation; L^2-estimates; singular hermitian metrics; holomorphic vector bundles; holomorphic vector bundles; dbar-equation; L^2-estimates; singular hermitian metrics; Griffiths positivity; Nakano positivity; vanishing theorems; Ohsawa-Takegoshi extension theorem; convex geometry; Prekopa theorem;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns various aspects of the geometry of holomorphic vector bundles and their analytical theory which all, vaguely speaking, are related to the notion of positive curvature in general, and L^2-methods for the dbar-equation in particular. The thesis contains four papers. READ MORE

  4. 4. Minkowski Measure of Asymmetry and Minkowski Distance for Convex Bodies

    Author : Qi Guo; Sten Kaijser; Marek Lassak; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical analysis; Matematisk analys; Mathematical analysis; Analys;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers about the Minkowski measure of asymmetry and the Minkowski (or Banach-Mazur) distance for convex bodies.We relate these two quantities by giving estimates for the Minkowski distance in terms of the Minkowski measure. READ MORE

  5. 5. Non-Convex Methods for Compressed Sensing and Low-Rank Matrix Problems

    Author : Daniele Gerosa; Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; compressed sensing; Low-rank Approximation; phase retrieval; Non-convex optimization;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study functionals of the type \( \mathcal{K}_{f,A,\b}(\x)= \mathcal{Q}(f)(\x) + \|A\x - \b \| ^2 \), where \(A\) is a linear map, \(\b\) a measurements vector and \( \mathcal{Q} \) is a functional transform called \emph{quadratic envelope}; this object is a very close relative of the \emph{Lasry-Lions envelope} and its use is meant to regularize the functionals \(f\). Carlsson and Olsson investigated in earlier works the connections between the functionals \( \mathcal{K}_{f,A,\b}\) and their unregularized counterparts \(f(\x) + \|A\x - \b \| ^2 \). READ MORE
