Developed a new homology theory for graph chromatic polynomials.

New link homology theories for $\mathbb{RP}^3$ yield distinct invariants.

Calculates knot $X$-torsion order using spectral sequences.

We use a special kind of 2-dimensional extended Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs), so-called open-closed TQFTs, in order to extend Khovanov homology from links to arbitrary tangles, not necessarily even. For every plane diagram of an oriented tangle, we construct a chain complex whose homology is invariant und…

Lee homology (a variant of Khovanov homology) over $\mathbb{Q}$ possesses the "canonical generators" as its basis. The generators (Lee's classes) $[α(D, o)]$ are constructed combinatorially from an oriented link diagram $D$, one for each alternative orientation $o$ on $D$. Let $R$ be an integral domain. There exists a …

New invariant distinguishes non-orientable surfaces.

Paper introduces an invariant to distinguish handlebody-knot exteriors.

Calabi-Yau theorem extended to Vaisman manifolds.

We define a family of formal Khovanov brackets of a colored link depending on two parameters. The isomorphism classes of these brackets are invariants of framed colored links. The Bar-Natan functors applied to these brackets produce Khovanov and Lee homology theories categorifying the colored Jones polynomial. Further,…

We prove that a compact lcK manifold with holomorphic Lee vector field is Vaisman provided that either the Lee field has constant norm or the metric is Gauduchon (i.e., the Lee field is divergence-free). We also give examples of compact lcK manifolds with holomorphic Lee vector field which are not Vaisman.

In the paper we give a survey of rather new notions and results which generalize classical ones in the theory of braids. Among such notions are various inverse monoids of partial braids. We also observe presentations different from standard Artin presentation for generalizations of braids. Namely, we consider presentat…

The study examines Lee metrics on groups and their properties.

In two previous papers with Yi-Jen Lee, we defined and computed a notion of Reidemeister torsion for the Morse theory of closed 1-forms on a finite dimensional manifold. The present paper gives an a priori proof that this Morse theory invariant is a topological invariant. It is hoped that this will provide a model for …

We give a complete description of all locally conformally Kähler structures with holomorphic Lee vector field on a compact complex manifold of Vaisman type. This provides in particular examples of such structures whose Lee vector field is not homothetic to the Lee vector field of a Vaisman structure. More generally, dr…

The paper classifies symmetries and determines exterior types of knotted handlebodies.

New theorem on Lee classes for LCK manifolds with potential.

We provide a unified framework for proving Reidemeister-invariance and functoriality for a wide range of link homology theories. These include Lee homology, Heegaard Floer homology of branched double covers, singular instanton homology, and \Szabo's geometric link homology theory. We follow Baldwin, Hedden, and Lobb (a…

Synthetic proof of Gannon-Lee theorem for spacetimes.

Paper uses neural networks to calibrate Lee-Carter models for multiple populations.

Study Einstein-Yang-Mills fields on specific manifolds, proving field deformations.

Proves Gannon-Lee theorem for $C^1$ spacetimes.

Holomorphic tensors on Vaisman manifolds are invariant under the Lee field.

Lobb observed in [arXiv:1103.1412] that each equivariant sl(N) Khovanov-Rozansky homology over C[a] admits a standard decomposition of a simple form. In the present paper, we derive a formula for the corresponding Lee-Gornik spectral sequence in terms of this decomposition. Based on this formula, we give a simple alter…

Study on Lee classes of complex surfaces, proving connectedness and bounds.

This note is devoted to partial study of recurrent equation $dω=β\wedge ω$, based on linear algebra of exterior forms. Such equation was considered by Lee, for non-degenerate 2-form. In this note we approach general case, when $ω$ is arbitrary. Particularly, we extend results obtained by Lee, on odd-forms.

Study examines Weyl structures on Riemannian manifolds with vanishing Lee form.

We discuss a remarkable formula discovered by Jerison and Lee to classify constant scalar curvature pseudohermitian structures on the sphere. We show that the formula is valid in the wider context of Einstein pseudohermitian manifolds. As an application we prove a uniqueness result that generalizes the theorem of Jeris…

Group quantization applied to finance models.

In this paper, we extend the classical Ho-Lee binomial term structure model to the case of time-dependent parameters and, as a result, resolve a drawback associated with the model. This is achieved with the introduction of a more flexible no-arbitrage condition in contrast to the one assumed in the Ho-Lee model.

The Lee-Gauduchon cone is a convex cone of cohomology classes for complex manifolds.

We show that the page at which the Lee spectral sequence collapses gives a bound on the unknotting number, u(K). In particular, for knots with u(K)<3, we show that the Lee spectral sequence must collapse at the E_2 page. An immediate corollary is that the Knight Move Conjecture is true when u(K)<3.

We give a simple proof of Lee's result from [Adv. Math. 179 (2005) 554-586; arXiv:math.GT/0210213], that the dimension of the Lee variant of the Khovanov homology of a c-component link is 2^c, regardless of the number of crossings. Our method of proof is entirely local and hence we can state a Lee-type theorem for tang…

We discuss how to apply work of L. Rudolph to braid conjugacy class invariants to obtain potentially effective obstructions to a slice knot being ribbon. We then apply these ideas to a family of braid conjugacy class invariants coming from Khovanov-Lee theory and explain why we do not obtain effective ribbon obstructio…

If a (possibly finite) compact Lie group acts effectively, locally linearly, and homologically trivially on a closed, simply-connected four-manifold with second Betti number at least three, then it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of S^1 x S^1, and the action must have nonempty fixed-point set. Our results strengthen a…

The paper contains an essentially self-contained treatment of Khovanov homology, Khovanov-Lee homology as well as the Rasmussen invariant for virtual knots and virtual knot cobordisms which directly applies to classical knot and classical knot cobordisms. To do so, we give an alternate formulation for the Manturov defi…

We construct a bigraded (co)homology theory which depends on a parameter a, and whose graded Euler characteristic is the quantum sl(2) link invariant. We follow Bar-Natan's approach to tangles on one side, and Khovanov's sl(3) theory for foams on the other side. Our theory is properly functorial under tangle cobordisms…

In this paper a multi-factor generalization of Ho-Lee model is proposed. In sharp contrast to the classical Ho-Lee, this generalization allows for those movements other than parallel shifts, while it still is described by a recombining tree, and is stationary to be compatible with principal component analysis. Based on…

Study shows torsion order bounds band-unlinking number for knot cobordisms.

The exterior derivative $d θ$ of the Lee form $θ$ of almost Hermitian manifolds is studied. If $ω$ is the Kähler two-form, it is proved that the $\mathbb{R}ω$-component of $dθ$ is always zero. expressions for the other components, in $[λ_0^{1,1}]$ and in $[[ λ^{2,0} ]]$, of $dθ$ are also obtained. They are given in ter…

Paper proves uniqueness of Einstein metrics on balls.

New actions found on exotic spheres using group theory.

Researchers determine quantum filtration structure of torus links.

We study two kinds of transformation groups of a compact locally conformally Kahler (l.c.K.) manifold. First we study compact l.c.K. manifolds with parallel Lee form by means of the existence of a holomorphic l.c.K. flow. Next, we introduce the Lee-Cauchy-Riemann (LCR) transformations as a class of diffeomorphisms pres…

This article applies a long short-term memory recurrent neural network to mortality rate forecasting. The model can be trained jointly on the mortality rate history of different countries, ages, and sexes. The RNN-based method seems to outperform the popular Lee-Carter model.

New invariants from divisibility of Lee classes for slice-torus.

We construct new examples of self-similar solutions and translating solitons for Lagrangian mean curvature flow by extending the method of Joyce, Lee and Tsui. Those examples include examples in which the Lagrangian angle is arbitrarily small as the examples of Joyce, Lee and Tsui.

We give a review of the quantum singularity theory of Fan-Jarvis-Ruan and the r-spin theory of Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob and describe the work of Abramovich-Jarvis showing that for the singularity A_{r-1} = x^r the stack of A_{r-1}-curves of is canonically isomorphic to the stack of r-spin curves. We prove that the A_{r-1…
