Stochastical Approximation of Convex Bodies.
In this work we compute the Stokes matrices of the ordinary differential equation satisfied by the hypergeometric integrals associated to an arrangement of hyperplanes in generic position. This generalizes the computation done by J.-P. Ramis for confluent hypergeometric functions, which correspond to the arrangement of two points on the line. The proof is based on an explicit description of a base of canonical solutions as integrals on the cones of the arrangement, and combinatorial relations between...
The paper introduces a notion of strictly convex metric space and strictly convex metric space with round balls. These objects generalize the well known concept of strictly convex Banach space. We prove some fixed point theorems in strictly convex metric spaces with round balls.
In this paper we study multi-dimensional words generated by fixed points of substitutions by projecting the integer points on the corresponding broken halfline. We show for a large class of substitutions that the resulting word is the restriction of a linear function modulo and that it can be decided whether the resulting word is space filling or not. The proof uses lattices and the abstract number system associated with the substitution.
