Abstract: Abstract The profile problem for the Ohta–Kawasaki diblock copolymer theory is a geometric variational problem. The energy functional is defined on sets in R 3 of prescribed volume and the energy of an admissible set… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract We propose a novel Riemannian geometric framework for variational inference in Bayesian models based on the nonparametric Fisher–Rao metric on the manifold of probability density functions. Under the square-root density representation, the manifold can… read more here.
