Explains a 2D color exchange invariant correspondence to 3D linking numbers.

problem Understanding color exchange invariants in 2D dynamics and their 3D geometric interpretation.
method Visualizes invariants as linking of lines on a special surface with Arf-Kervaire invariant one, and interprets it as an obstruction to continuous transformation.
result Interprets a 2D color exchange invariant as a 3D linking number, providing a topological explanation.

We describe a family of 3d topological B-models whose target spaces are Hilbert schemes of points in C2\mathbb{C}^2. The interfaces separating theories with different numbers of points correspond to braid strands. The Hilbert space of the picture of a closed braid is the HOMFLY-PT homology of the corresponding link.

This paper provides both a detailed study of color-dependence of link homologies, as realized in physics as certain spaces of BPS states, and a broad study of the behavior of BPS states in general. We consider how the spectrum of BPS states varies as continuous parameters of a theory are perturbed. This question can be…

The paper offers new methods to determine if certain 3D links can be formed by intersecting spheres in 4D space.

result Provides lower bounds on the doubly slice genus of links.

We propose a new description of 3d N=2\mathcal{N}=2 theories which do not admit conventional Lagrangians. Given a quiver QQ and a mutation sequence mm on it, we define a 3d N=2\mathcal{N}=2 theory T[(Q,m)]\mathcal{T}[(Q,m)] in such a way that the Sb3S^3_b partition function of the theory coincides with the cluster partition f…

In this paper we study supersymmetric co-dimension 2 and 4 defects in the compactification of the 6d (2,0)(2,0) theory of type AN1A_{N-1} on a 3-manifold MM. The so-called 3d-3d correspondence is a relation between complexified Chern-Simons theory (with gauge group SL(N,C)SL(N, \mathbb{C})) on MM and a 3d N=2\mathcal{N}=2 theo…

Motivated by physical constructions of homological knot invariants, we study their analogs for closed 3-manifolds. We show that fivebrane compactifications provide a universal description of various old and new homological invariants of 3-manifolds. In terms of 3d/3d correspondence, such invariants are given by the Q-c…

Recently, multiple formulations of vision problems as probabilistic inversions of generative models based on computer graphics have been proposed. However, applications to 3D perception from natural images have focused on low-dimensional latent scenes, due to challenges in both modeling and inference. Accounting for th…

We construct a new family of exact quantum field theories modeled on hyperbolic geometry, called {\it quantum hyperbolic field theories} (QHFTs). The QHFTs are defined for a (2+1)(2+1)-bordism category based on the set of compact oriented 3-manifolds YY, equipped with properly embedded framed links $L_\Ff$ and with flat …

Convolutional networks are successful due to their equivariance/invariance under translations. However, rotatable data such as images, volumes, shapes, or point clouds require processing with equivariance/invariance under rotations in cases where the rotational orientation of the coordinate system does not affect the m…

There is a remarkable and canonical problem in 3D geometry and topology: To understand existing models of 3D fluid motion or to create new ones that may be useful. We discuss from an algebraic viewpoint the PDE called Euler's equation for incompressible frictionless fluid motion. In part I we define a "finite dimension…

result Failure of uniqueness is severe, with continuous and non-constant invariants appearing in C1C^1-open sets of nonvanishing exact fields of fixed helicity.
