Is the pushforward of a closed immersion ever fully-faithful at the level of Derived Categories?
Let $i: Z \rightarrow X$ be a closed immersion of schemes. Then, for any $\mathcal{O}_{Z}$-module $\mathcal{G}$, the counit of adjunction $i^{*}i_{*}\mathcal{G} \rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ is an ...

Distribution of this integral of Fourier multiplier
In Barashkov and Gubinelli (2019) section 2, the authors make the claim that the distribution of $$Y_t = \int_0^t \langle D \rangle^{-1}\sigma_s(D)dX_s$$ is given by the pushforward $(\rho_t(D))_*\...

Let $p_1$ and $p_2$ be two probability densities and $X_i\sim N(\mu_i,\Sigma_i)$. Write $w(X)\sim p$ if the law of the random variable $w(X)$ has a density equal to $p$. For general densities $p_i$, ...

A question about pushforward measures and continuous Borel isomorphisms
It is fairly well known that if $\mu$ and $\nu$ are nonatomic measures on the standard Borel spaces $(X,B)$ and $(Y,C)$ such that $\mu(X)=\nu(Y)$. If $X$ and $Y$ are uncountable, then there exists a ...
