Semisimplicity proven for conformal blocks representations.
Based on projective representations of smooth Deligne cohomology groups, we introduce an analogue of the space of conformal blocks to compact oriented (4k+2)-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with boundary. For the standard (4k+2)-dimensional disk, we compute the space concretely to prove that its dimension is finite.

The central discovery of conformal theory was holomorphic factorization, which expressed correlation functions through bilinear combinations of conformal blocks, which are easily cut and joined without a need to sum over the entire huge Hilbert space of states. Somewhat similar, when a link diagram is glued from t…
We extend conformal inference to general settings that allow for time series data. Our proposal is developed as a randomization method and accounts for potential serial dependence by including block structures in the permutation scheme. As a result, the proposed method retains the exact, model-free validity when the da…
Enhances ocean floor mapping with adaptive uncertainty estimates.
Arithmetic Dijkgraaf-Witten theory constructs analogues in Chern-Simons TQFT.
We illustrate from the viewpoint of braiding operations on WZNW conformal blocks how colored HOMFLY polynomials with multiplicity structure can detect mutations. As an example, we explicitly evaluate the (2,1)-colored HOMFLY polynomials that distinguish a famous mutant pair, Kinoshita-Terasaka and Conway knot.
The paper defines a Chern-Simons invariant for stably trivial vector bundles and uses it to obstruct conformal immersions.
The behavior under conformal change of the renormalized volume coefficients associated to a pseudo-Riemannian metric is investigated. It is shown that they define second order fully nonlinear operators in the conformal factor whose algebraic structure is elucidated via the introduction of "extended obstruction tensors"…
We classify both local and global Kähler structures admitting totally geodesic homothetic foliations with complex leaves. The main building blocks are related to Swann's twists and are obtained by applying Weinstein's method of constructing symplectic bundles to Kähler data. As a byproduct we obtain new classes of: hol…
Teichmüller TQFT is a unitary 3d topological theory whose Hilbert spaces are spanned by Liouville conformal blocks. It is related but not identical to PSL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory. To physicists, it is known in particular in the context of 3d-3d correspondence and also in the holographic description of Virasoro conform…
Study of gauge theory blowups and Painlevé VI identity.
It has been argued based on electric-magnetic duality and other ingredients that the Jones polynomial of a knot in three dimensions can be computed by counting the solutions of certain gauge theory equations in four dimensions. Here, we attempt to verify this directly by analyzing the equations and counting their solut…
tsbootstrap handles time series uncertainty without assuming independence.
We show that the Hilbert space formed from a block spin renormalization construction of a cyclic quantum spin chain (based on the Temperley-Lieb algebra) does not support a chiral conformal field theory whose Hamiltonian generates translation on the circle as a continuous limit of the rotations on the lattice.
Normalizing flows can now estimate densities on unknown manifolds.
A very simple expression is conjectured for arbitrary colored Jones and HOMFLY polynomials of a rich -parametric family of Pretzel knots and links. The answer for the Jones and HOMFLY polynomials is fully and explicitly expressed through the Racah matrix of U_q(SU_N), and looks related to a modular transformatio…

We solve the regularized Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation and find an explicit expression for the Drinfeld associator. We restrict to the case of the fundamental representation of . Several tests of the results are presented. It can be explicitly seen that components of this solution for the associator coincide w…
This paper presents a novel Block Iterative Bayesian Algorithm (Block-IBA) for reconstructing block-sparse signals with unknown block structures. Unlike the existing algorithms for block sparse signal recovery which assume the cluster structure of the nonzero elements of the unknown signal to be independent and identic…
This letter presents a novel Block Bayesian Hypothesis Testing Algorithm (Block-BHTA) for reconstructing block sparse signals with unknown block structures. The Block-BHTA comprises the detection and recovery of the supports, and the estimation of the amplitudes of the block sparse signal. The support detection and rec…
We examine the recovery of block sparse signals and extend the framework in two important directions; one by exploiting signals' intra-block correlation and the other by generalizing signals' block structure. We propose two families of algorithms based on the framework of block sparse Bayesian learning (BSBL). One fami…
We theoretically investigate the convergence rate and support consistency (i.e., correctly identifying the subset of non-zero coefficients in the large sample limit) of multiple kernel learning (MKL). We focus on MKL with block-l1 regularization (inducing sparse kernel combination), block-l2 regularization (inducing un…
In the search for appropriate discretizations of surface theory it is crucial to preserve such fundamental properties of surfaces as their invariance with respect to transformation groups. We discuss discretizations based on Möbius invariant building blocks such as circles and spheres. Concrete problems considered in t…

Generalizes embedding formalism for CFTs on curved backgrounds.
There exist various types of network block models such as the Stochastic Block Model (SBM), the Degree Corrected Block Model (DCBM), and the Popularity Adjusted Block Model (PABM). While this leads to a variety of choices, the block models do not have a nested structure. In addition, there is a substantial jump in the …
SympFormer accelerates attention blocks using inertial dynamics on density spaces.
We introduce block-tree graphs as a framework for deriving efficient algorithms on graphical models. We define block-tree graphs as a tree-structured graph where each node is a cluster of nodes such that the clusters in the graph are disjoint. This differs from junction-trees, where two clusters connected by an edge al…
We simplify matrix computations for block matrices, especially useful for covariance and correlation matrices.
Attention mechanism is a hot spot in deep learning field. Using channel attention model is an effective method for improving the performance of the convolutional neural network. Squeeze-and-Excitation block takes advantage of the channel dependence, selectively emphasizing the important channels and compressing the rel…
Proposes BMME for optimizing nonsmooth nonconvex problems with block structure.
Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) has become a widely used optimization method for convex problems, particularly in the context of data mining in which large optimization problems are often encountered. ADMM has several desirable properties, including the ability to decompose large problems into smalle…
Paper proposes ABDR for convex subspace clustering with adaptive block diagonal representation.
We consider practical data characteristics underlying federated learning, where unbalanced and non-i.i.d. data from clients have a block-cyclic structure: each cycle contains several blocks, and each client's training data follow block-specific and non-i.i.d. distributions. Such a data structure would introduce client …
In the present paper we study a sparse stochastic network enabled with a block structure. The popular Stochastic Block Model (SBM) and the Degree Corrected Block Model (DCBM) address sparsity by placing an upper bound on the maximum probability of connections between any pair of nodes. As a result, sparsity describes o…
Incorporating deep neural networks in image compressive sensing (CS) receives intensive attentions in multimedia technology and applications recently. As deep network approaches learn the inverse mapping directly from the CS measurements, the reconstruction speed is significantly faster than the conventional CS algorit…
