Le traitement d'images numériques a suivi l'évolution de l'électronique et de l'informatique. Il est maintenant courant de manipuler des images à valeur non pas dans {0,1}, mais dans des variétés ou des distributions de probabilités. C'est le cas par exemple des images couleurs où de l'imagerie du tenseur de diffusion (DTI). Chaque type d'image possède ses propres structures algébriques, topologiques et géométriques. Ainsi, les techniques existantes de traitement d'image doivent être adaptés lorsqu'elles sont appliquées à de nouvelles modalités d'imagerie. Lorsque l'on manipule de nouveaux types d'espaces de valeurs, les précédents opérateurs peuvent rarement être utilisés tel quel. Même si les notions sous-jacentes ont encore un sens, un travail doit être mené afin de les exprimer dans le nouveau contexte. Cette thèse est composée de deux parties indépendantes. La première, « Morphologie mathématiques pour les images non standards », concerne l'extension de la morphologie mathématique à des cas particuliers où l'espace des valeurs de l'image ne possède pas de structure d'ordre canonique. Le chapitre 2 formalise et démontre le problème de l'irrégularité des ordres totaux dans les espaces métriques. Le résultat principal de ce chapitre montre qu'étant donné un ordre total dans un espace vectoriel multidimensionnel, il existe toujours des images à valeur dans cet espace tel que les dilatations et les érosions morphologiques soient irrégulières et incohérentes. Le chapitre 3 est une tentative d'extension de la morphologie mathématique aux images à valeur dans un ensemble de labels non ordonnés.La deuxième partie de la thèse, « Estimation de densités de probabilités dans les espaces de Riemann » concerne l'adaptation des techniques classiques d'estimation de densités non paramétriques à certaines variétés Riemanniennes. Le chapitre 5 est un travail sur les histogrammes d'images couleurs dans le cadre de métriques perceptuelles. L'idée principale de ce chapitre consiste à calculer les histogrammes suivant une approximation euclidienne local de la métrique perceptuelle, et non une approximation globale comme dans les espaces perceptuels standards. Le chapitre 6 est une étude sur l'estimation de densité lorsque les données sont des lois Gaussiennes. Différentes techniques y sont analysées. Le résultat principal est l'expression de noyaux pour la métrique de Wasserstein. / Digital image processing has followed the evolution of electronic and computer science. It is now current to deal with images valued not in {0,1} or in gray-scale, but in manifolds or probability distributions. This is for instance the case for color images or in diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Each kind of images has its own algebraic, topological and geometric properties. Thus, existing image processing techniques have to be adapted when applied to new imaging modalities. When dealing with new kind of value spaces, former operators can rarely be used as they are. Even if the underlying notion has still a meaning, a work must be carried out in order to express it in the new context.The thesis is composed of two independent parts. The first one, "Mathematical morphology on non-standard images", concerns the extension of mathematical morphology to specific cases where the value space of the image does not have a canonical order structure. Chapter 2 formalizes and demonstrates the irregularity issue of total orders in metric spaces. The main results states that for any total order in a multidimensional vector space, there are images for which the morphological dilations and erosions are irregular and inconsistent. Chapter 3 is an attempt to generalize morphology to images valued in a set of unordered labels.The second part "Probability density estimation on Riemannian spaces" concerns the adaptation of standard density estimation techniques to specific Riemannian manifolds. Chapter 5 is a work on color image histograms under perceptual metrics. The main idea of this chapter consists in computing histograms using local Euclidean approximations of the perceptual metric, and not a global Euclidean approximation as in standard perceptual color spaces. Chapter 6 addresses the problem of non parametric density estimation when data lay in spaces of Gaussian laws. Different techniques are studied, an expression of kernels is provided for the Wasserstein metric.

The Riemann Zeta Function has a deep connection with the distribution of primes. This expository thesis will explain the techniques used in proving the properties of the Rieman Zeta Function, its analytic continuation to the complex plane, and the functional equation that the the Riemann Zeta Function satisfies.

Almost contact metric submersions constitute a class of Riemannian submersions whose total space is an almost contact metric manifold. Regarding the base space, two types are studied. Submersions of type I are those whose base space is an almost contact metric manifold while, when the base space is an almost Hermitian manifold, then the submersion is said to be of type II. After recalling the known notions and fundamental properties to be used in the sequel, relationships between the structure of the fibres with that of the total space are established. When the fibres are almost Hermitian manifolds, which occur in the case of a type I submersions, we determine the classes of submersions whose fibres are Kählerian, almost Kählerian, nearly Kählerian, quasi Kählerian, locally conformal (almost) Kählerian, Gi-manifolds and so on. This can be viewed as a classification of submersions of type I based upon the structure of the fibres. Concerning the fibres of a type II submersions, which are almost contact metric manifolds, we discuss how they inherit the structure of the total space. Considering the curvature property on the total space, we determine its corresponding on the fibres in the case of a type I submersions. For instance, the cosymplectic curvature property on the total space corresponds to the Kähler identity on the fibres. Similar results are obtained for Sasakian and Kenmotsu curvature properties. After producing the classes of submersions with minimal, superminimal or umbilical fibres, their impacts on the total or the base space are established. The minimality of the fibres facilitates the transference of the structure from the total to the base space. Similarly, the superminimality of the fibres facilitates the transference of the structure from the base to the total space. Also, it is shown to be a way to study the integrability of the horizontal distribution. Totally contact umbilicity of the fibres leads to the asymptotic directions on the total space. Submersions of contact CR-submanifolds of quasi-K-cosymplectic and quasi-Kenmotsu manifolds are studied. Certain distributions of the under consideration submersions induce the CR-product on the total space. / Mathematical Sciences / D. Phil. (Mathematics)

The goal of this dissertation is to present a R. Reilly's demonstration of the theorem of Alexandrov . The theorem states that The only compact hypersurfaces, conected, of constant mean curvature, immersed in Euclidean space are spheres. The theorem of Alexandrov was proved by A. D. Alexandrov in the article Uniqueness Theorems for Surfaces in the Large V, published in 1958 by Vestnik Leningrad University, volume 13, number 19, pages 5 to 8. In his demonstration, Alexandrov used the famous Principle of tangency, introduced by him in that article. In the year 1962, M. Obata shown in Certain Conditions for a Riemannian Manifold to be isometric With the Sphere, published by the Journal of Mathematical Society of Japan, volume 14, pages 333 to 340, that a Riemannian Manifold M, compact, connected and without boundary, is isometric to a sphere, since the Ricci curvature of M satisfies certain lower bound. This theorem solves the problem of finding manifolds that reach equality in the estimate of Lichnerowicz for the first eigenvalue. In 1977, R. Reilly, in the article Applications of the Hessian operator in a Riemannian Manifold, published in Indianna University Mathematical Journal, volume 23, pages 459 to 452, showed a generalization of the Obata theorem for compact manifolds with boundary. As an example of the technique developed in this demonstration, he presents a new demonstration of the theorem of Alexandrov. This demonstration, as well as the techniques involved are the object of study of this work. / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / O objetivo desta dissertação é apresentar uma demonstração de R. Reilly para o Teorema de Alexandrov. O teorema estabelece que As únicas hipersuperfícies compactas, conexas, de curvatura média constante, mergulhadas no espaço Euclidiano são as esferas. O teorema de Alexandrov foi provado por A. D. Alexandrov no artigo Uniqueness Theorems for Surfaces in the Large V, publicado em 1958 pela Vestnik Leningrad University, volume 13, número 19, páginas 5 a 8. Em sua demonstração, Alexandrov usou o famoso Princípio de Tangência, introduzido por ele no citado artigo. No ano de 1962, M. Obata demonstrou em Certain Conditions for a Riemannian Manifold to be Isometric With a Sphere, publicado pelo Journal of Mathematical Society of Japan, volume 14, páginas 333 a 340, que uma variedade Riemanniana M, compacta, conexa e sem bordo, é isométrica a uma esfera, desde que a curvatura de Ricci de M satisfaça determinada limitação inferior. Este teorema resolve o problema de encontrar as variedades que atingem a igualdade na estimativa de Lichnerowicz para o primeiro autovalor. Em 1977, R. Reilly, no artigo Applications of the Hessian Operator in a Riemannian Manifold, publicado no Indianna University Mathematical Journal, volume 23, páginas 459 a 452, demonstrou uma generalização do Teorema de Obata para variedades compactas com bordo. Como exemplo da técnica desenvolvida nesta demonstração, ele apresenta uma nova demonstração do Teorema de Alexandrov. Esta demonstração, bem como as técnicas envolvidas, são o objeto de estudo deste trabalho.

First, we will present the trust region method for multiobjective optimization in the Riemannian context, which retrieves the classical trust region method for minimizing scalar functions. Under mild assumptions, we will show that each accumulation point of the generated sequences by the method, if any, is Pareto critical. Next, the proximal point method for vector optimization and its inexact version will be extended from Euclidean space to the Riemannian context. Under suitable assumptions on the objective function, the well-definedness of the methods will be established. Besides, the convergence of any generated sequence, to a weak efficient point, will be obtained. The last method to be investigated is the Newton method to solve vector optimization problem with respect to variable ordering structure. Variable ordering structures are set-valued map with cone values that to each element associates an ordering. In this analyze we will prove the convergence of the sequence generated by the algorithm of Newton method and, moreover, we also will obtain the rate of convergence under variable ordering structures satisfying mild hypothesis. / Neste trabalho, analisaremos três tipos de métodos para resolver problemas de otimização vetorial em diferentes tipos contextos. Primeiro, apresentaremos o método da Região de Confiança para resolver problemas multiobjetivo no contexto Riemanniano, o qual recupera o método da Região de Confiança clássica para minimizar funções escalares. Sob determinadas suposições, mostraremos que cada ponto de acumulação das sequências geradas pelo método, se houver, é Pareto crítico. Em seguida, o método do ponto proximal para otimização vetorial e sua versão inexata serão estendidos do espaço Euclidiano para o contexto Riemanniano. Sob adequados pressupostos sobre a função objetiva, a boas definições dos métodos serão estabelecidos. Além disso, a convergência de qualquer sequência gerada, para um ponto fracamente eficiente, é obtida. O último método a ser investigado é o método de Newton para resolver o problema de otimização vetorial com respeito a estruturas de ordem variável. Estruturas de ordem variável são aplicações ponto-conjunto cujas imagens são cones que para cada elemento associa uma ordem. Nesta análise, provaremos a convergência da sequência gerada pelo algoritmo do método de Newton e, além disso, também obteremos a taxa de convergência sob estruturas de ordem variável satisfazendo adequadas hipóteses.

Cette thèse comporte deux sujets d’étude mêlés. Le premier concerne l’étude de la bornitude sur Lp de la transformée de Riesz d∆-½ , où ∆ désigne l’opérateur de Laplace-Beltrami (positif). Le second traite de la régularité de Sobolev W1,p de la solution de l’équation de la chaleur non perturbée. Nous établissons également quelques résultats concernant les transformées de Riesz d’opérateurs de Schrödinger avec un potentiel comportant éventuellement une partie négative.Dans le cadre de ces travaux, nous nous plaçons sur une variété riemanienne (M, g) complète et non compacte. Nous supposons que M satisfait la propriété de doublement de volume (de constante de doublement égale à D) ainsi qu’une estimation gaussienne supérieure pour son noyau de la chaleur (celui associé à l’opérateur ∆). Nous travaillons avec le laplacien de Hodge-de Rham, noté ∆, agissant sur les 1-formes différentielles de M. En s’appuyant sur la formule de Bochner, liant ∆ à la courbure de Ricci de M, nous assimilons ∆ à un opérateur de Schrödinger à valeurs vectorielles. C’est un argument de dualité, basé sur une formule de commutation algébrique, qui lie l’étude de ∆ à celle de ∆. [...] / This thesis has two main parts. The first one deals with the study of the boundedness on Lp of the Riesz transform d∆-½ , where ∆ denotes the nonnegative Laplace-Beltrami operator. The second one deals with the Sobolev regularity W1,p of the solution of the heat equation. We also establish some results on the Riesz transforms of Schrödinger operators with a potential possibly having a negative part. In this work, we consider a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold (M, g). We assume that M satisfies the volume doubling property (with doubling constant equal to D) as well as a Gaussian upper estimate for its heat kernel associated to the operator ∆. We work with the Hodge-de Rham Laplacian ∆, acting on 1-differential forms of M. With the Bochner formula, linking ∆to the Ricci curvature of M, we see ∆ has a vector-valued Schrödinger operator. It is a duality argument, based on a commutation formula, which links the study of ∆to the one of ∆. [...]
