result Robots learned policies to compete effectively, beating human-designed strategies.

Chagas disease is a neglected disease, and information about its geographical spread is very scarse. We analyze here mobility and calling patterns in order to identify potential risk zones for the disease, by using public health information and mobile phone records. Geolocalized call records are rich in social and mobi…

result Best-performing setup achieved CER of 0.015, superior to commercial models.

This brief survey aims to set the stage and summarize some of the ideas under discussion at the Workshop on Singular Geometry and Higgs Bundles in String Theory, to be held at the American Institute of Mathematics from October 30th to November 3rd, 2017. One of the most interesting aspects of the duality revolution in …

These are the proceedings of the workshop "Math in the Black Forest", which brought together researchers in shape analysis to discuss promising new directions. Shape analysis is an inter-disciplinary area of research with theoretical foundations in infinite-dimensional Riemannian geometry, geometric statistics, and geo…

Defined by Joyce and Matveev, the fundamental quandle is a complete invariant of oriented classical knots. We consider invariants of knots defined from quotients of the fundamental quandle. In particular, we introduce the fundamental Latin Alexander quandle of a knot and consider its Gröbner basis-valued invariants, wh…

We consider the problem of estimating E[f(U1,,Ud)]\mathbb{E} [f(U^1, \ldots, U^d)], where (U1,,Ud)(U^1, \ldots, U^d) denotes a random vector with uniformly distributed marginals. In general, Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) is a powerful tool for solving this kind of high-dimensional numerical integration problem. In the case of depende…

A quandle is a self-distributive algebraic structure that appears in quasi-group and knot theories. For each abelian group A and c \in A we define a quandle G(A, c) on \Z_3 \times A. These quandles are generalizations of a class of non-medial Latin quandles defined by V. M. Galkin so we call them Galkin quandles. Each …

On July 26, 1995, at the University of California, Santa Cruz, a young Dutch mathematician by the name Aise Johan de Jong made a revolution in the study of the arithmetic, geometry and cohomology theory of varieties in positive or mixed characteristic. The talk he delivered, first in a series of three entitled "Dominat…

problem Pricing American Exchange options driven by Lévy processes.
method Represented American Exchange options as European options plus early exercise premium; studied properties of free boundary and provided an approximative formula.
result Developed an approximative formula for American Exchange options.

The paper values perpetual callable American volatility options using a mean-reverting volatility model.

problem Valuation of callable American volatility put options.
method Modeling volatility dynamics as a mean-reverting 3/2 process and proposing a pricing formula.
result The value of perpetual callable American volatility put options is discussed under given conditions.

The paper explores zero-divisors and idempotents in quandle rings, proving their absence in certain cases.

problem Understanding zero-divisors and idempotents in quandle rings.
method Development of quandle rings theory, definition of orderability, computation of idempotents, and analysis of automorphism groups.
result Quandle rings of left or right orderable quandles with semi-latin structure have no zero-divisors.

Recent work has shown that a country's productive structure constrains its level of economic growth and income inequality. Here, we compare the productive structure of countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) with that of China and other High-Performing Asian Economies (HPAE) to expose the increasing gap in t…

The last few years have seen an explosion of academic and popular interest in algorithmic fairness. Despite this interest and the volume and velocity of work that has been produced recently, the fundamental science of fairness in machine learning is still in a nascent state. In March 2018, we convened a group of expert…

Since most of the traded options on individual stocks is of American type it is of interest to generalize the results obtained in semi-static trading to the case when one is allowed to statically trade American options. However, this problem has proved to be elusive so far because of the asymmetric nature of the positi…
