Let $G$ be a Lie group, and let $\mathcal B(G)$ its Borel $\sigma$-algebra. Suppose that $f : G \to G$ is a Borel-measurable homomorphism. Is $f$ smooth? Edit: My original question said "measurable ...

Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be points on $\mathbb S^1.$ We then define the expectation value $E(X)=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n X_i.$ Let $\frac{dS(X_1)}{2\pi}$ be the normalized surface measure of $\mathbb S^1,$ i....

Let $\mathcal{P}_2(M)$ be the 2-Wasserstein space over some Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ (connected, complete, and without boundary). Let $\mathcal{FP}_2(M,n)$ be the subspace of probability measures ...

Let $M$ be a 2-dimensional embedded $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ with a global chart$^1$ $(U,\phi)$. If $u\in U$ and $x=\phi^{-1}(u)$, let $\nu_M(x)$ denote the unique unit normal vector of $M$ ...

Let $X_1,...,X_N$ be random variables that are iid with the uniform distribution over $\mathbb S^n.$ I am curious how to see that $f(X_1,..,X_N):=\left \lvert \sum_{i=1}^N X_i \right\rvert^{-1}$ has ...

Let $S^2$ denote the unit 2-sphere, $M$ be a 2-dimensional oriented embedded $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ with $$d_M(x,\omega):=\inf\left\{t>0:x+t\omega\in M\right\}<\infty\;\;\;\text{for ...
