Gradient descent with exponentially increasing stepsizes and restarts
François Clément, Stefan Steinerberger
Let . We consider gradient descent , where the stepsize is exponentially growing…
A Remark on the Odd Area of Unit Disks
Stefan Steinerberger
Let be a family of unit disks in with being odd. We use $\mbox{OA}(F)$ to denote the area of the set of points that is covered by an odd number of disks.…
An effective variant of the Hartigan -means algorithm
François Clément, Stefan Steinerberger
The k-means problem is perhaps the classical clustering problem and often synonymous with Lloyd's algorithm (1957). It has become clear that Hartigan's algorithm (1975) gives bette…
Slow dispersion in Floquet-Dirac Hamiltonians
Anthony Bloch, Amir Sagiv, Stefan Steinerberger
We study dispersive decay for non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems. While the general theory for dispersion in such non-autonomous systems is largely open, it was shown \cite{kraisle…
Buffon Discrepancy and the Steinhaus Longimeter
Stefan Steinerberger
Let be a convex set. We study the problem of distributing a one-dimensional set with total length so that for any line in the…
Distance Equilibrium Measures and Curvature in Metric Spaces
Stefan Steinerberger
Let be a compact metric space. We consider the behavior of probability measures with the property that $$ \int_{X} d(x, y) dμ(y) \qquad \mbox{is independent of}~x \in…
