Gluing instantons on 4-manifolds with group action.

We study the deformation theory of $\mathrm{G}_2$-instantons on the 7-sphere, specifically those obtained from instantons on the 4-sphere via the quaternionic Hopf fibration. We find that the pullback of the standard ASD instanton lies in a smooth, complete, 15-dimensional family of $\mathrm{G}_2$-instantons. In genera…

We study an infinite dimensional ASD moduli space over the cylinder. Our main result is the formula of its local mean dimension. A key ingredient of the argument is the notion of non-degenerate ASD connections. We develop its deformation theory and show that there exist sufficiently many non-degenerate ASD connections …

Study on instantons over product manifolds with a codimension-4 form.

This paper develops a local analogue of the ADHM construction, which characterises ASD instantons defined over smooth bounded domains inside Euclidean $\mathbb{R}^4$ diffeomorphic to the 4-ball, in terms of infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces and bounded Hermitian linear operators satisfying an analogue of the ADHM equ…

We study a moduli space of ASD connections over $S^3\times \mathbb{R}$. We consider not only finite energy ASD connections but also infinite energy ones. So the moduli space is infinite dimensional in general. We study the (local) mean dimension of this infinite dimensional moduli space. We show the upper bound on the …

We make some comments on noncommutative $U(N)$-instantons on $\mathbb{R}^4_θ$. We elaborate on the equations for the ASD-connection for free modules. Further we make some remarks on the computation of the topological index of ADHM instantons.

We give a sufficient condition for an associative submanifold in a G2-manifold to appear as the bubbling locus of a sequence of G2-instantons, related to the existence of a Fueter section of a bundle of ASD instanton moduli spaces over said submanifold.

In this article we introduce a method to construct $\rm{G}_2$-instantons on $\rm{G}_2$-manifolds arising from Joyce's generalised Kummer construction. The method is based on gluing ASD instantons over ALE spaces to flat bundles on $\rm{G}_2$-orbifolds of the form $T^7/ Γ$. We use this construction to produce non-trivia…

The paper defines ASD connections and constructs families over a 5D Heisenberg group.

We study the following question: Let $(X,g)$ be a compact Gauduchon surface, $(E,h)$ be a differentiable rank $r$ vector bundle on $X$, ${\mathcal{D}}$ be a fixed holomorphic structure on $D:=\det(E)$ and $a$ be the Chern connection of the pair $(\mathcal{D},\det(h))$. Does the complex space structure on ${\mathcal{M}}…

The abstract discusses instantons on flat spaces and provides explicit constructions.

In this paper we study ${\rm Spin}(7)$-instantons on asymptotically conical ${\rm Spin}(7)$-orbifolds (and manifolds) obtained by filling in certain squashed $3$-Sasakian $7$-manifolds. We construct a $1$-parameter family of explicit ${\rm Spin}(7)$-instantons. Taking the parameter to infinity, the family (a) bubbles o…

Formulae prove equivalence of two invariants on specific 4-manifolds.

We prove that a sequence of solutions of the Seiberg-Witten equation with multiple spinors in dimension three can degenerate only by converging (after rescaling) to a Fueter section of a bundle of moduli spaces of ASD instantons.

In this expository review we discuss various aspects of gauge theory. While the focus is on mathematics, wherever possible we make contact with theoretical high energy physics. Particular emphasis is placed on instantons and monopoles, which admit physical interpretation, and yield interesting and nontrivial mathematic…

Study on Yang-Mills fields blow-up in 4D, proving certain configurations impossible.

We review aspects of twistor theory, its aims and achievements spanning thelast five decades. In the twistor approach, space--time is secondary with events being derived objects that correspond to compact holomorphic curves in a complex three--fold -- the twistor space. After giving an elementary construction of this s…

Autism spectrum condition (ASC) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is primarily identified with the help of behavioral indications encompassing social, sensory and motor characteristics. Although categorized, recurring motor actions are measured during diagnosis, quantifiable measures that ascertain kinematic physiognom…

Game teaches ASD teenagers to imitate gestures.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder that often impairs a child's normal development of the brain. According to CDC, it is estimated that 1 in 6 children in the US suffer from development disorders, and 1 in 68 children in the US suffer from ASD. This condition has a negative impact on a person's …

Extends ASD connection existence to 4-manifolds with cylindrical ends.

In this paper we announce a gluing theorem for conformal structures with anti-self-dual (ASD) Weyl tensor that applies in geometrical situations that are more general than those considered by previous authors. By adapting a method proposed by Floer, sufficient conditions are given for the existence of ASD conformal str…

Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a challenging problem, and is based purely on behavioral descriptions of symptomology (DSM-5/ICD-10), and requires informants to observe children with disorder across different settings (e.g. home, school). Numerous limitations (e.g., informant discrepancies, lack of adheren…

Deep learning aids in autism diagnosis and rehabilitation using neuroimaging data.

We prove a sharp lower bound on the curvatures of non-flat ASD connections over the cylinder.

Anti-self-dual (ASD) connections for a compact smooth four manifold arise as critical values for the Yang-Mills action functional. Nahm transform is a nice correspondence between a vector bundle with ASD connections and a vector bundle with ASD connections over Picard torus associated to X. In this talk we propose a no…

We give new and rather general gluing theorems for anti-self-dual (ASD) conformal structures, following the method suggested by Floer. The main result is a gluing theorem for pairs of conformally ASD manifolds `joined' across a common piece (union of connected components) of their boundaries. This theorem genuinely ope…

The goal of the present study is to identify autism using machine learning techniques and resting-state brain imaging data, leveraging the temporal variability of the functional connections (FC) as the only information. We estimated and compared the FC variability across brain regions between typical, healthy subjects …

An Alexander self-dual complex gives rise to a compactification of $M_{0,n}$, called ASD compactification, which is a smooth algebraic variety. ASD compactifications include (but are not exhausted by) the polygon spaces, or the moduli spaces of flexible polygons. We present an explicit description of the Chow rings of …

We prove generic regularity and Uhlenbeck-type compactification theorems for the moduli spaces of PU(2)-monopoles. Generic regularity is NOT obtained in the usual way (by applying Sard theorem to a smooth parameterized moduli space), since the parameterized moduli space can be a priori singular. We explain why, using t…

Significant progress has been made using fMRI to characterize the brain changes that occur in ASD, a complex neuro-developmental disorder. However, due to the high dimensionality and low signal-to-noise ratio of fMRI, embedding informative and robust brain regional fMRI representations for both graph-level classificati…

DCASE 2022 Task 2 tackles domain shifts in ASD for machine condition monitoring.

Discovering imaging biomarkers for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is critical to help explain ASD and predict or monitor treatment outcomes. Toward this end, deep learning classifiers have recently been used for identifying ASD from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with higher accuracy than traditional lear…

Mental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous disorders that are notoriously difficult to diagnose, especially in children. The current psychiatric diagnostic process is based purely on the behavioural observation of symptomology (DSM-5/ICD-10) and may be prone to over-prescribing of drugs …

Active speaker detection (ASD) and virtual cinematography (VC) can significantly improve the remote user experience of a video conference by automatically panning, tilting and zooming of a video conferencing camera: users subjectively rate an expert video cinematographer's video significantly higher than unedited video…

Given two hyperkähler manifolds $M$ and $N$ and a quaternionic instanton on their product, a hyperkähler Nahm transform can be defined, which maps quaternionic instantons on $M$ to quaternionic instantons on $N$. This construction includes the case of Nahm transform for periodic instantons on $\bR^4$, the Fourier-Mukai…
