In this paper, we characterize locally dually flat generalized m-th root Finsler metrics. Then we find a condition under which a generalized m-th root metric is projectively related to a m-th root metric. Finally, we prove that if a generalized m-th root metric is conformal to a m-th root metric, then both of them redu…

Study on special Finsler metrics with conditions for Riemannian and isotropic properties.

In this paper, we characterize locally dually flat and Antonelli $m$-th root Finsler metrics. Then, we show that every $m$-th root Finsler metric of isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a weakly Berwald metric.

In this paper, we prove that every m-th root metric with isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a weakly Berwald metric. Then we show that an m-th root metric with isotropic mean Landsberg curvature is a weakly Landsberg metric. We find necessary and sufficient condition under which conformal $β$-change of an m-th…

In this paper, we consider Kropina change of $m$-th root Finsler metrics. We find necessary and sufficient condition under which the Kropina change of an $m$-th root Finsler metric be locally dually flat. Then we prove that the Kropina change of an $m$-th root Finsler metric is locally projectively flat if and only if …

In this Note, we prove that every m-th root Finsler metric with isotropic Landsberg curvature reduces to a Landsberg metric. Then, we show that every m-th root metric with almost vanishing H-curvature has vanishing H-curvature.

For Finsler spaces (M,F) endowed with m-th root metrics, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions in which they are projectively flat, or projectively related to Berwald/Riemann spaces. We also give a specific characterization for m-th root metrics spaces of Landsberg and of Berwald type.

In this paper, we define some non-Riemannian curvature properties for Cartan spaces. We consider Cartan space with the m-th root metric. We prove that every m-th root Cartan space of isotropic Landsberg curvature, or isotropic mean Landsberg curvature, or isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a Landsberg, weakly …

The aim of this paper is to expose some geometrical properties of the locally Minkowski-Cartan space with the Berwald-Moor metric of momenta. This space is regarded as a particular case of the $m$-th root Cartan space. Thus, Section 2 studies the $v$-covariant derivation components of the $m$-th root Cartan space. Sect…

Natural volume forms defined for pseudo-Finslerian manifolds with specific metrics.

In this paper, we find a condition under which a Finsler space with Kropina change of mth-root metric is projectively related to a mth-root metric and also we find a condition under which this Kropina transformed mth-root metric is locally dually flat. Moreover we find the condition for its Projective flatness.

The Kauffman bracket skein modules, S(M,A), have been calculated for A=+1,-1, for all 3-manifolds M by relating them to the SL(2,C)-character varieties. We extend this description to the case when A is a 4-th root of 1 and M is either a surface x [0,1] or a rational homology sphere (or its submanifold).

Let p an integer. We define a family of idempotents (and nilpotents) in the Temperley - Lieb algebras at 4p-th roots of unity which generalize the usual Jones-Wenzl idempotents. These new idempotents correspond to finite dimentional simple and projective indecomposable representations of the restricted quantum group Uq…

We find a unique torsion free Riemannian spin connection for the natural Killing metric on the quantum group $C_q[SL_2]$, using a recent frame bundle formulation. We find that its covariant Ricci curvature is essentially proportional to the metric (i.e. an Einstein space). We compute the Dirac operator and find for $q$…

The paper proves rigidity for complex Kleinian groups.

For an arbitrary positive integer n, we construct infinitely many one-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds where each manifold's A-polynomial detects every n-th root of unity. This answers a question of Cooper, Culler, Gillet, Long, and Shalen as to which roots of unity arise in this manner.

Classification is the most important process in data analysis. However, due to the inherent non-convex and non-smooth structure of the zero-one loss function of the classification model, various convex surrogate loss functions such as hinge loss, squared hinge loss, logistic loss, and exponential loss are introduced. T…

New link homologies categorify Jones polynomial at odd prime powers.

Categorifies colored Jones polynomial at roots of unity.

We consider subgroups of the braid groups which are generated by $k$-th powers of the standard generators and prove that any infinite intersection (with even $k$) is trivial. This is motivated by some conjectures of Squier concerning the kernels of Burau's representations of the braid groups at roots of unity. Furtherm…

Consider an Einstein orbifold $(M_0,g_0)$ of real dimension $2n$ having a singularity with orbifold group the cyclic group of order $n$ in ${\rm{SU}}(n)$ which is generated by an $n$th root of unity times the identity. Existence of a Ricci-flat Kähler ALE metric with this group at infinity was shown by Calabi. There is…

We calculate the Witte-Reshetikhi-Turaev invariant for a knot in the lens space of type L(m,1) for the N-th root of unity, and study its asymptotic behavior for large N.

SRNF framework extends surface distance to Lipschitz surfaces.

We prove that in Riemannian manifolds the $k$-th Steklov eigenvalue on a domain and the square root of the $k$-th Laplacian eigenvalue on its boundary can be mutually controlled in terms of the maximum principal curvature of the boundary under sectional curvature conditions. As an application, we derive a Weyl-type upp…

We construct the generalized version of covariant Z_3-graded differential calculus introduced by one of us (R.K.), and then extended to the case of arbitrary Z_N grading. Here our main purpose is to establish the recurrence formulae for the N-th power of covariant q-differential D_q = d_q + A and to analyze more closel…

In this paper we study the skein modules of the surfaces, $Σ_{i,j}$ $(i,j)\in \{(0,2),(0,3),(1,0),(1,1)\}$ at $2N$-th roots of unity where $N\geq 3$ is an odd counting number and construct Frobenius algebras from them.

New quantum obstructions prevent purely cosmetic surgeries on knots.

The Jones-Witten theory gives rise to representations of the (extended) mapping class group of any closed surface Y indexed by a semi-simple Lie group G and a level k. In the case G=SU(2) these representations (denoted V_A(Y)) have a particularly simple description in terms of the Kauffman skein modules with parameter …

The paper proves congruences for Fishburn numbers at roots of unity.

We prove a conjecture due to Makanin: if a and b are elements of the Artin braid group B_n such that a^k=b^k for some nonzero integer k, then a and b are conjugate. The proof involves the Nielsen-Thurston classification of braids.

Loosely speaking, the Volume Conjecture states that the limit of the n-th colored Jones polynomial of a hyperbolic knot, evaluated at the primitive complex n-th root of unity is a sequence of complex numbers that grows exponentially. Moreover, the exponential growth rate is proportional to the hyperbolic volume of the …

Quantitative estimates for $Q$-curvature near minimizing metrics on Riemannian manifolds.

We study the kernel of the evaluated Burau representation through the braid element $σ_i σ_{i+1} σ_i$. The element is significant as a part of the standard braid relation. We establish the form of this element's image raised to the $n^{th}$ power. Interestingly, the cyclotomic polynomials arise and can be used to defin…

Given a unital associatve graded algebra we construct the graded q-differential algebra by means of a graded q-commutator, where q is a primitive N-th root of unity. The N-th power (N>1) of the differential of this graded q-differential algebra is equal to zero. We use our approach to construct the graded q-differentia…

We first obtain the interior $C^{1,1}$-regularity and solvability for the degenerate real Monge-Ampère equation in a bounded, $C^3$-smooth and strictly convex domain in $\mathbb R^d$ ($d\ge2$), assuming that the boundary data is only globally $C^{1,1}$, and the $d$-th root of the nonnegative right-hand side is globally…

We reveal an intimate connection between the quantum knot invariant for torus knot T(s,t) and the character of the minimal model M(s,t), where s and t are relatively prime integers. We show that Kashaev's invariant, i.e., the N-colored Jones polynomial at the N-th root of unity, coincides with the Eichler integral of t…

Grosjean proved that the $(1/p)$-th power of the first eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian on a closed Riemannian manifold converges to the twice of the inverse of the diameter of the space, as $p \to \infty$. Before this, a corresponding result for the Dirichlet first eigenvalues was also obtained by Juutinen, Lindqvist a…

The paper defines Dirichlet domains for Anosov subgroups in Lie groups.

We consider an asymptotic expansion of Kashaev's invariant or the colored Jones function for the torus link T(2,2m). We shall give q-series identity related to these invariants, and show that the invariant is regarded as a limit of q being N-th root of unity of the Eichler integral of the modular form of weight 3/2.

We find decomposition series of length at most two for modular representations in positive characteristic of mapping class groups of surfaces induced by an integral version of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev SO(3)-TQFT at the p-th root of unity, where p is an odd prime. The dimensions of the irreducible factors are given…

The paper studies constant $k$th-mixed curvature on Hermitian manifolds and finds self-duality and Kähler conditions.

We give an irreducible decomposition of the so-called local representations (see arXiv:0707.2151) of the quantum Teichmüller space $\mathcal{T}_q(Σ)$ where $Σ$ is a punctured surface of genus $g>0$ and $q$ is a primitive $N$-th root of unity with $N$ odd. As an application, we construct a family of representations of t…

We construct a Hennings type logarithmic invariant for restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ at a $2\mathsf{p}$-th root of unity. This quantum group $U$ is not braided, but factorizable. The invariant is defined for a pair: a 3-manifold $M$ and a colored link $L$ inside $M$. The link $L$ is split into two parts colored…

Finite specializations of a q-deformed modular group at roots of unity.

Let L be a holomorphic line bundle with a positively curved singular Hermitian metric over a complex manifold X. One can define naturally the sequence of Fubini-Study currents associated to the space of square integrable holomorphic sections of the p-th tensor powers of L. Assuming that the singular set of the metric i…

Let $S_g$ be a closed orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and $C$ a simple closed nonseparating curve in $F$. Let $t_C$ denote a left handed Dehn twist about $C$. A \textit{fractional power} of $t_C$ of \textit{exponent} $\fraction{\ell}{n}$ is an $h \in \Mod(S_g)$ such that $h^n = t_C^{\ell}$. Unlike a root of a $t…

We review our recent work on solitons in the Higgs phase. We use U(N_C) gauge theory with N_F Higgs scalar fields in the fundamental representation, which can be extended to possess eight supercharges. We propose the moduli matrix as a fundamental tool to exhaust all BPS solutions, and to characterize all possible modu…
