Paper defines the payback period for nonconventional cash flows using axioms.

problem Defining the payback period for nonconventional cash flows is challenging.
method Used axiomatic approach to define the payback period.
result The last break-even point of the project balance is the only definition consistent with axioms.

Kleinberg introduced three natural clustering properties, or axioms, and showed they cannot be simultaneously satisfied by any clustering algorithm. We present a new clustering property, Monotonic Consistency, which avoids the well-known problematic behaviour of Kleinberg's Consistency axiom, and the impossibility resu…

result Unique extension of interest rate cap rule for all loans, based on net present value test.

The purpose of this note is introduce a new axiom (called the Descent Axiom) in the theory of rr-spin cohomological field theories. This axiom explains the origin of gravitational descendants in this theory. Furthermore, the Descent Axiom immediately implies the Vanishing Axiom, explicating the latter (which has no a …

As datasets capturing human choices grow in richness and scale -- particularly in online domains -- there is an increasing need for choice models that escape traditional choice-theoretic axioms such as regularity, stochastic transitivity, and Luce's choice axiom. In this work we introduce the Pairwise Choice Markov Cha…

Treating a conjecture, P^#P != NP, on the separation of complexity classes as an axiom, an implication is found in three manifold topology with little obvious connection to complexity theory. This is reminiscent of Harvey Friedman's work on finitistic interpretations of large cardinal axioms.

CUQ-GNN adapts uncertainty quantification for graph data, improving on GPN.

problem Defining meaningful uncertainty on graph data with domain-specific characteristics.
method Combines Graph Neural Networks with Posterior Networks using Normalizing Flows.
result CUQ-GNN produces more flexible and effective uncertainty estimates.

It is known, that if a 2m-dimensional Kahler manifold satisfies the axiom of holomorphic 2n-spheres (1<n<m) or the axiom of antiholomorphic n-spheres (2<n), it is of constant holomorphic sectional curvature. In this paper the same result is obtained under weaker assumptions.

The notion of Courant algebroid was introduced by Liu, Weinstein and Xu in 1997. Its definition consists of five axioms and an assumption for a derivation. It is shown that two of the axioms and the assumption for the derivation follow from the rest of the axioms.

We studied the axiom of anti-invariant 2-spheres and the axiom of co-holomorphic (2n+1)(2n+1)-spheres. We proved that a nearly Kählerian manifold satisfying the axiom of anti-invariant 2-spheres is a space of constant holomorphic sectional curvature. We also showed that an almost Hermitian manifold MM of dimension $2m\geq…

New axioms justify ES without NRC, linking it to mean-ES portfolio selection.

problem Economic axioms for portfolio risk assessment and mean-ES portfolio selection.
method Introducing concentration aversion as an alternative to NRC, establishing axiomatic foundations.
result Concentration aversion uniquely characterizes the family of ES and provides new formulas.

In various situations in Floer theory, one extracts homological invariants from "Morse-Bott" data in which the "critical set" is a union of manifolds, and the moduli spaces of "flow lines" have evaluation maps taking values in the critical set. This requires a mix of analytic arguments (establishing properties of the m…

Study examines how machine learning attribution methods reflect risk in finance.

problem Ensuring machine learning attribution methods accurately reflect underlying risks in finance.
method Examined Shapley value and Integrated Gradients, and derived axioms from asset pricing domain knowledge.
result Neither Shapley value nor Integrated Gradients can satisfy all axioms for reflecting risks accurately.

The second author previously discussed how classical complexity separation conjectures, we call them "axioms", have implications in three manifold topology: polynomial length stings of operations which preserve certain Jones polynomial evaluations cannot produce exponential simplifications of link diagrams. In this pap…

The paper establishes axioms for AMMs to ensure fair pricing and fee structures.

problem Ensuring fair and efficient pricing in decentralized finance (DeFi) AMMs.
method Formulating axioms on utility functions to characterize swap sizes and pricing oracles.
result Most existing AMMs satisfy the proposed axioms, and a new AMM is proposed with desirable properties.

Shapley Flow interprets model predictions using a graph-based approach to feature importance.

problem Existing feature importance methods ignore or hide feature dependencies.
method Shapley Flow considers the entire causal graph and assigns credit to edges.
result Shapley Flow provides a deeper, graph-based view of feature importance.

By studying spaces of flow graphs in a closed oriented manifold, we construct operations on its cohomology, parametrized by the homology of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces with boundary marked points. We show that the operations satisfy the gluing axiom of an open homological conformal field theory. This …

Milnor proved two uniqueness theorems for axiomatic (co)homology: one for pairs of compacta (1960) and another, in particular, for pairs of countable simplicial complexes (1961). We obtain their common generalization: the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms along with Milnor's map excision axiom and a (non-obvious) common genera…

Recently V. Arnold introduced Strangeness and J±J^{\pm} invariants of generic immersions of an oriented circle to R2\R^2. Here these invariants are generalized to the case of generic immersions of an oriented circle to an arbitrary surface FF. We explicitly describe all the invariants satisfying axioms, which naturall…

This paper attempts to investigate the space of various characteristic classes for smooth manifold bundles with local system on the total space inducing a finite holonomy covering.

We consider the pair of degenerate compatible antibrackets satisfying a generalization of the axioms imposed in the triplectic quantization of gauge theories. We show that this actually encodes a Lie group structure, with the antibrackets being related to the left- and right- invariant vector fields on the group. The s…

We investigate properties that intuitively ought to be satisfied by graph clustering quality functions, that is, functions that assign a score to a clustering of a graph. Graph clustering, also known as network community detection, is often performed by optimizing such a function. Two axioms tailored for graph clusteri…
