We prove that the distribution of eigenvectors of generalizedWigner matrices is universal both in the bulk and at the edge. This includes a probabilistic version of local quantum unique ergodicity and asymptotic normality of the eigenvector entries. The proof relies on analyzing the eigenvector flow under the Dyson Brownian motion. The key new ideas are: (1) the introduction of the eigenvector moment flow, a multi-particle random walk in a random environment, (2) an effective estimate on the regularity of this flow based on maximum principle and (3) optimal finite speed of propagation holds for the eigenvector moment flow with very high probability.

Some uniform theorems on the artinianness of certain local cohomology modules are proven in a general situation. They generalize and imply previous results about the artinianness of some special local cohomology modules in the graded case.

In this paper we analyze an algorithm which solves the point projection and the “inversion” problems for parametric curves and surfaces. It consists of a geometric second order iteration which converges faster than existing first order methods, and whose sensitivity to the choice of initial values is small. Applications include the ICP algorithm for shape registration.
