dual space of a subspace of the space of bounded measures
Let $\mathcal{M}=\mathcal{M}(\mathbb{R})$ be the space of bounded measures. Equipped with the weak convergence, the dual space of $\mathcal{M}$ is $\mathcal{C}_b(\mathbb{R})$ consisting of continuous ...

Finding a point farthest away from $k$ points in a polygon
There are $k$ points placed inside a polygon and I am interested in finding a point inside the polygon (not necessarily on its boundary) who's minimum distance to any of the $k$ points is maximized.

Design constraint systems over the reals
This question is inspired by the discussion at this problem.
Suppose I have a design consisting of a finite point set $U$ of size $|U|=m_{\emptyset}$ and a family of $n$ subsets (sometimes called ...

Why is the Tate local duality pairing compatible with the Cartier duality pairing?
This question is a follow up to Why is the norm map dual to restriction under Tate local duality?
Let $A$ and $B$ be dual abelian schemes over a base scheme $S$. For an integer $n \ge 1$, consider ...

Tempered distributions at non-coinciding points and density of Schwartz functions
In the previous question, I find that situation is much less favorable than expected…. So I add more details to focus on the specific case I have in mind.
Let us consider the Schwartz space $\mathcal{...

Is this a linear optimization problem? $Ax=0$, $A$ has $m$ rows and $n$ columns, $m \le n$, all entries of $x$ are non-negative
$Ax=0$, $A$ has $m$ rows and $n$ columns, $m \le n$, all entries of $x$ are non-negative.
What should $A$ satisfy to guarantee the equation set have only zero solution?

How to solve the optimization problem $\max_{\mathbf{w}}\sum_i\text{sign}(\mathbf{w}^T \mathbf{x}_i)$?
I am looking for an algorithm to solve the following optimization problem
$$\max_{\mathbf{w}}\sum_i\text{sign}(\mathbf{w}^T \mathbf{x}_i)$$
where $\mathbf{w}$ and each $\mathbf{x}_i\in\mathbb{R}^d$.
