The paper introduces fixed-point centralities for networks and graphons.

As relational datasets modeled as graphs keep increasing in size and their data-acquisition is permeated by uncertainty, graph-based analysis techniques can become computationally and conceptually challenging. In particular, node centrality measures rely on the assumption that the graph is perfectly known -- a premise …

A hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 4$, has central ovaloid property if $M$ intersects some hyperplane transversally along an ovaloid and every such ovaloid on $M$ has central symmetry. We show that a complete, connected, smooth hypersurface with central ovaloid property must either be a cylinder over a centr…

Central banks play a key role in promoting sustainable finance.

The purpose of this paper is to show how central extensions of (possibly infinite-dimensional) Lie algebras integrate to central extensions of étale Lie 2-groups. In finite dimensions, central extensions of Lie algebras integrate to central extensions of Lie groups, a fact which is due to the vanishing of π_2 for each …

Study shows volume density in central harmonic spaces can vary arbitrarily.

We determine the universal central extension of the Lie algebra of hamiltonian vector fields, thereby classifying its central extensions. Furthermore, we classify the central extensions of the Lie algebra of symplectic vector fields, of the Poisson Lie algebra, and of its compactly supported version.

Criterion for lifting smooth contact maps between Carnot groups to central extensions.

FUSE neural centrality framework improves data point measurement in high dimensions.

We prove: If a complete connected smooth surface M in euclidean 3-space has general position, intersects some plane along a clean figure-8 (a loop with total curvature zero) and all compact intersections with planes have central symmetry, then M is a (geometric) cylinder over some central figure-8. On the way, we estab…

Federated learning has become increasingly important for modern machine learning, especially for data privacy-sensitive scenarios. Existing federated learning mostly adopts the central server-based architecture or centralized architecture. However, in many social network scenarios, centralized federated learning is not…

We show existence of centrally symmetric maps on surfaces all of whose faces are quadrangles and pentagons for each orientable genus $g \geq 0$. We also show existence of centrally symmetric maps on surfaces all of whose faces are hexagons for each orientable genus $g = 2k-1$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. We enumerate centrally …

Paper proves CLTs for Q-learning with asynchronous updates.

We construct a sequence of commuting central affine curve flows on $R^n\backslash 0$ invariant under the action of $SL(n,R)$ and prove the following results: (a) The central affine curvatures of a solution of the j-th central affine curve flow is a solution of the j-th flow of Gelfand-Dickey (GD$_n$) hierarchy on the s…

The paper validates a centrality measure for financial networks during financial distress.

MakerDAO's governance is centralized despite its decentralized claim.

Most distributed machine learning systems nowadays, including TensorFlow and CNTK, are built in a centralized fashion. One bottleneck of centralized algorithms lies on high communication cost on the central node. Motivated by this, we ask, can decentralized algorithms be faster than its centralized counterpart? Althoug…

Each compact Riemannian manifold with no conjugate points admits a family of functions whose integrals vanish exactly when central Busemann functions split linearly. These functions vanish when all central Busemann functions are sub- or superharmonic. When central Busemann functions are convex or concave, they must be …

I show that the solution of a standard clearing model commonly used in contagion analyses for financial systems can be expressed as a specific form of a generalized Katz centrality measure under conditions that correspond to a system-wide shock. This result provides a formal explanation for earlier empirical results wh…

We construct some canonically defined central extensions of groups of symplectomorphisms. We show that this central extension is nontrivial in the case of a torus of dimension $\ge 6$ and in the case of a two-dimensional surface of genus $\ge 3$.

We present a geometric construction of central S^1-extensions of the quantomorphism group of a prequantizable, compact, symplectic manifold, and explicitly describe the corresponding lattice of integrable cocycles on the Poisson Lie algebra. We use this to find nontrivial central S^1-extensions of the universal cover o…

New bounds for average graph distance using curvature and centrality.

It was observed by Tod and later by Dunajski and Tod that the Boyer-Finley (BF) and the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (dKP) equations possess solutions whose level surfaces are central quadrics in the space of independent variables (the so-called central quadric ansatz). It was demonstrated that generic solutio…

In this study, we give the relationships between the conical curvatures of ruled surfaces drawn by the unit vectors of the ruling, central normal and central tangent of a regular ruled surface in the Euclidean -space. We obtain the differential equations characterizing slant ruled surfaces and if the reference ruled su…

Study of centralizer elements preserving geodesic flow foliations on covers.

We show that the canonical central extension of the group of sections of a Lie group bundle over a compact manifold, constructed in [NW09], is universal. In doing so, we prove universality of the corresponding central extension of Lie algebras in a slightly more general setting.

Central limit theorem for Green metrics on hyperbolic groups.

We give a characterisation of central extensions of a Lie group G by the non-zero complex numbers in terms of a differential two-form on G and a differential one-form on GxG. This is applied to the case of the central extension of the loop group.

Mime algorithm improves federated learning by adapting centralized methods.

Centrality, as a geometrical property of the collision, is crucial for the physical interpretation of nucleus-nucleus and proton-nucleus experimental data. However, it cannot be directly accessed in event-by-event data analysis. Common methods for centrality estimation in A-A and p-A collisions usually rely on a single…

We present a geometric construction of central extensions of covering groups of the group of volume preserving diffeomorphisms, integrating central extensions of the Lie algebra of divergence free vector fields defined by Lichnerowicz cocycles. Certain covering spaces of non-linear Grassmannians can be realized as preq…

Study on when the lower central series stops for various groups, including braid groups.

Given a (smooth) complex analytic family of compact complex manifolds, we prove that the central fibre must be Moishezon if the other fibres are Moishezon. Using a "strongly Gauduchon metric" on the central fibre whose existence was proved in our previous work on limits of projective manifolds, we show that the irreduc…

In this review paper, we present several results on central extensions of the Lie algebra of symplectic (Hamiltonian) vector fields, and compare them to similar results for the Lie algebra of (exact) divergence free vector fields. In particular, we comment on universal central extensions and integrability to the group …

Researchers solve a 25-year-old conjecture about vector fields.

We consider a stochastic game between a trader and a central bank in a target zone market with a lower currency peg. This currency peg is maintained by the central bank through the generation of permanent price impact, thereby aggregating an ever increasing risky position in foreign reserves. We describe this situation…
