The paper studies Gauss sums and their applications in algebra and topology.

We prove a discrete Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem which states where summing the curvature over all vertices of a finite graph G=(V,E) gives the Euler characteristic of G.

New algorithms solve non-convex optimization problems efficiently.

Paper presents a fast algorithm for pricing Bermudan swaptions under the two-factor Hull-White model.

We prove a reciprocity formula between Gauss sums that is used in the computation of certain quantum invariants of 3-manifolds. Our proof uses the discriminant construction applied to the tensor product of lattices.

We prove that the expectation value of the index function i(x) over a probability space of injective function f on any finite simple graph G=(V,E) is equal to the curvature K(x) at the vertex x. This result complements and links Gauss-Bonnet sum K(x) = chi(G) and Poincare-Hopf sum i(x) = chi(G) which both hold for arbi…

The curvature of Gauss maps for flat submanifolds is studied in space forms.

We study that the $n-$graphs defining by smooth map $f:\Om\subset \ir{n}\to \ir{m}, m\ge 2,$ in $\ir{m+n}$ of the prescribed mean curvature and the Gauss image. We derive the interior curvature estimates $$\sup_{D_R(x)}|B|^2\le\f{C}{R^2}$$ under the dimension limitations and the Gauss image restrictions. If there is no…

Using the Fiedler-Polyak-Viro Gauss diagram formulas we study the Vassiliev invariants of degree 2 and 3 on almost positive knots. As a consequence we show that the number of almost positive knots of given genus or unknotting number grows polynomially in the crossing number, and also recover and extend, inter alia to t…

We study surfaces in Euclidean space constructed by the sum of two curves or that are graphs of the product of two functions. We consider the problem to determine all these surfaces with constant Gauss curvature. We extend the results to non degenerate surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski space.

Second-order economic theory considers new variables to improve price volatility predictions.

In this paper, we give some estimates of the sum of the square norm of the sections of the pluricanonical bundles over a Riemann surface with genus greater than 2 and Gauss curvature (-1). Using these estimate, we give a uniform estimate of the corona problem on Riemann surfaces.

Study properties of surfaces with nonvanishing third fundamental form.

Study on Gauss maps of minimal surfaces over projective hypersurfaces.

We prove that a 3--dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by its Gauss image. Furthermore, any spherical metric on the torus with cone singularities of negative curvature and all closed contractible geodesics of length greater than $2π$ is the metric of the Gauss image of som…

The Black-Scholes model anticipates rather well the observed prices for options in the case of a strike price that is not too far from the current price of the underlying asset. Some useful extensions can be obtained by an adequate modification of the coefficients in the Black-Scholes equation. We investigate from a ma…

We derive a formula of Chern-Gauss-Bonnet type for the Euler characteristic of a four dimensional manifold-with-boundary in terms of the geometry of the Loewner-Nirenberg singular Yamabe metric in a prescribed conformal class. The formula involves the renormalized volume and a boundary integral. It is shown that if the…

Let $(M,g)$ be a two dimensional compact Riemannian manifold of genus $g(M)>1$. Let $f$ be a smooth function on $M$ such that $f \ge 0, \quad f\not\equiv 0, \quad \min_M f = 0.$ Let $p_1,\ldots,p_n$ be any set of points at which $f(p_i)=0$ and $D^2f(p_i)$ is non-singular. We prove that for all sufficiently small $λ>…

This is a sequel to the paper [Cas]. Here, we extend the methods of Farb-Wolfson using the theory of FI_G-modules to obtain stability of equivariant Galois representations of the etale cohomology of orbit configuration spaces. We establish subexponential bounds on the growth of unstable cohomology, and then use the Gro…

In this paper we prove a formula for the analytic index of a basic Dirac-type operator on a Riemannian foliation, solving a problem that has been open for many years. We also consider more general indices given by twisting the basic Dirac operator by a representation of the orthogonal group. The formula is a sum of int…

Paper introduces new link homotopy invariants and applies them to 3-bouquet graphs.

Goussarov, Polyak, and Viro proved that finite type invariants of knots are ``finitely multi-local'', meaning that on a knot diagram, sums of quantities, defined by local information, determine the value of the knot invariant. The result implies the existence of Gauss diagram combinatorial formulas for finite type inva…

Paper shows how to represent Milnor's triple linking number using chord diagrams and doodle invariants.

This paper studies convergence properties of multivariate distributions constructed by endowing empirical margins with a copula. This setting includes Latin Hypercube Sampling with dependence, also known as the Iman--Conover method. The primary question addressed here is the convergence of the component sum, which is r…

We propose two new approaches to the Tannakian Galois groups of holonomic D-modules on abelian varieties. The first is an interpretation in terms of principal bundles given by the Fourier-Mukai transform, which shows that they are almost connected. The second constructs a microlocalization functor relating characterist…

Gauss diagrams' properties can change with Hamiltonian cycle choice.

By defining combinatorial moves, we can define an equivalence relation on Gauss words called homotopy. In this paper we define a homotopy invariant of Gauss words. We use this to show that there exist Gauss words that are not homotopically equivalent to the empty Gauss word, disproving a conjecture by Turaev. In fact, …

Algorithm for recognizing and performing Reidemeister moves in Gauss diagrams.

This paper proves a conjecture linking quantum modular forms and WRT invariants for specific graphs.

We discuss Gauss codes of virtual diagrams and virtual doodles. The notion of a left canonical Gauss code is introduced and it is shown that oriented virtual doodles are uniquely presented by left canonical Gauss codes.

Incorrect parity-based descriptions of realizable Gauss diagrams found, but bipartite graphs provide a valid approach.

Study rotational surfaces with prescribed Gauss curvature in 3D space.

We consider a locally trivial fiber bundle $π: E \to M$ over a compact oriented two-dimensional manifold $M$, and a section $s$ of this bundle defined over $M \setminus Σ$, where $Σ$ is a discrete subset of $M$. We call the set $Σ$ the set of singularities of the section $s : M \setminus Σ\to E$. We assume that the beh…

Study on Gauss images of specific minimal surfaces with finite curvature.

In this study, a numerical quadrature for the generalized inverse Gaussian distribution is derived from the Gauss-Hermite quadrature by exploiting its relationship with the normal distribution. The proposed quadrature is not Gaussian, but it exactly integrates the polynomials of both positive and negative orders. Using…

Study on rotational hypersurfaces with constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature.

We give an estimate of the Gauss curvature for minimal surfaces in ${\mathbb R}^m$ whose Gauss map omits more than $m(m+1)/2$ hyperplanes in ${\mathbb P}^{m-1}({\mathbb C})$.

The paper studies the space of Gauss maps of complete minimal surfaces and their homotopy types.

We write the Euler characteristic X(G) of a four dimensional finite simple geometric graph G=(V,E) in terms of the Euler characteristic X(G(w)) of two-dimensional geometric subgraphs G(w). The Euler curvature K(x) of a four dimensional graph satisfying the Gauss-Bonnet relation sum_x K(x) = X(G) can so be rewritten as …

Study classifies hypersurfaces in 4D Lorentz-Minkowski space using specific operators.

We study the Gauss map of minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group $\mathrm{Nil}_3$ endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. We prove that the Gauss map of a nowhere vertical minimal surface is harmonic into the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}^2$. Conversely, any nowhere antiholomorphic harmonic map into $\mathbb{…

We show that the emerging field of discrete differential geometry can be usefully brought to bear on crystallization problems. In particular, we give a simplified proof of the Heitmann-Radin crystallization theorem (R. C. Heitmann, C. Radin, J. Stat. Phys. 22, 281-287, 1980), which concerns a system of $N$ identical at…
