We compare various notions of weak subsolutions to degenerate complex Monge-Amp{è}re flows, showing that they all coincide. This allows us to show that the viscosity solution coincides with the envelope of pluripotential subsolutions. Dedicated to Duong Hong Phong on the occasion of his 65th birthday.

Continuity of complex Monge-Ampère potentials on Kähler manifolds.
We establish a stability result for elliptic and parabolic complex Monge-Amp{è}re equations on compact K{ä}hler manifolds, which applies in particular to the K{ä}hler-Ricci flow. Dedicated to Jean-Pierre Demailly on the occasion of his 60th birthday.
We develop a parabolic pluripotential theory on compact K{ä}hler manifolds, defining and studying weak solutions to degenerate parabolic complex Monge-Amp{è}re equations. We provide a parabolic analogue of the celebrated Bedford-Taylor theory and apply it to the study of the K{ä}hler-Ricci flow on varieties with log te…
Study solves complex equation on specific types of manifolds.
We introduce a class of almost homogeneous varieties contained in the class of spherical varieties and containing horospherical varieties as well as complete symmetric varieties. We develop K{ä}hler geometry on these varieties, with applications to canonical metrics in mind, as a generalization of the Guillemin-Abreu-D…
We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of existence of a K{ä}hler-Einstein metric on a -equivariant Fano compactification of a complex connected reductive group in terms of the associated polytope. This condition is not equivalent to the vanishing of the Futaki invariant. The proof relies on the …
We develop the first steps of a parabolic pluripotential theory in bounded strongly pseudo-convex domains of Cn. We study certain degenerate parabolic complex Monge-Amp{è}re equations, modelled on the K{ä}hler-Ricci flow evolving on complex algebraic varieties with Kawamata log-terminal singularities. Under natural ass…
N. V. Efimov \cite{Ef1} proved that there is no complete, smooth surface in with uniformly negative curvature. We extend this to isometric immersions in a 3-manifold with pinched curvature: if has sectional curvature between two constants and , then there exists such that $M…
Study complex Monge-Ampère flows on Kähler manifolds using Perron method.
We propose a numerical method for solving high dimensional fully nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). Our algorithm estimates simultaneously by backward time induction the solution and its gradient by multi-layer neural networks, while the Hessian is approximated by automatic differentiation of the gradient…
We come up with infinite-dimensional prequantum line bundles and moment map interpretations of three different sets of equations - the generalised Monge-Amp`ere equation, the almost Hitchin system, and the Calabi-Yang-Mills equations. These are all perturbations of already existing equations. Our construction for the g…
The paper studies mean curvature flow of Lagrangian graphs in pseudo-Euclidean space.
In this paper, we investigate two hyperbolic flows obtained by adding forcing terms in direction of the position vector to the hyperbolic mean curvature flows in \cite{klw,hdl}. For the first hyperbolic flow, as in \cite{klw}, by using support function, we reduce it to a hyperbolic Monge-Ampre equation …

Attention to entropic communication improves message decoding and cooperation.
RES, a regularized stochastic version of the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) quasi-Newton method is proposed to solve convex optimization problems with stochastic objectives. The use of stochastic gradient descent algorithms is widespread, but the number of iterations required to approximate optimal arguments c…
It is natural to ask: what kinds of matrices satisfy the Restricted Eigenvalue (RE) condition? In this paper, we associate the RE condition (Bickel-Ritov-Tsybakov 09) with the complexity of a subset of the sphere in , where is the dimensionality of the data, and show that a class of random matrices with indep…
We implement a method for re-ranking top-10 results of a state-of-the-art question answering (QA) system. The goal of our re-ranking approach is to improve the answer selection given the user question and the top-10 candidates. We focus on improving deployed QA systems that do not allow re-training or re-training comes…
We analyze different re-ranking algorithms for diversification and show that majority of them are based on maximizing submodular/modular functions from the class of parameterized concave/linear over modular functions. We study the optimality of such algorithms in terms of the `total curvature'. We also show that by adj…
The paper analyzes how re-weighting helps in reducing variance in high-dimensional kernel methods under covariate shifts.
The Bregman divergence (Bregman distance, Bregman measure of distance) is a certain useful substitute for a distance, obtained from a well-chosen function (the "Bregman function"). Bregman functions and divergences have been extensively investigated during the last decades and have found applications in optimization, o…
New research challenges the flatness-generalization link in deep neural networks.
Given a complex analytic function f on a Whitney stratified complex analytic variety of complex dimension n, whose real part Re(f) is Morse, we prove the existence of a stratified gradient-like vector field for Re(f) such that the unstable set of a critical point p on a stratum S of complex dimension s has real dimensi…
RES improves robustness in Bayesian optimization.
An on-going debate in the energy economics and power market community has raised the question if energy-only power markets are increasingly failing due to growing feed-in shares from subsidized renewable energy sources (RES). The short answer to this is: No, they are not failing. Energy-based power markets are, however…
We consider functions with isolated critical points on a closed surface. We prove that in a neighborhood of a critical point the function conjugates with Re for the some nonnegative integer k. The full topological invariant of such functions is constructed.
This paper addresses detection of a reverse engineering (RE) attack targeting a deep neural network (DNN) image classifier; by querying, RE's aim is to discover the classifier's decision rule. RE can enable test-time evasion attacks, which require knowledge of the classifier. Recently, we proposed a quite effective app…

LITE models improve query-document relevance with learnable late interactions.
We compare the isoperimetric profiles of $S^2 \times \re^3$ and of $S^3 \times \re^2$ with that of a round 5-sphere (of appropriate radius). Then we use this comparison to obtain lower bounds for the Yamabe constants of $S^2 \times \re^3$ and $S^3 \times \re^2$. Explicitly we show that $Y(S^3 \times \re^2, [g_0^3 +dx^2…

Person Re-identification (re-id) faces two major challenges: the lack of cross-view paired training data and learning discriminative identity-sensitive and view-invariant features in the presence of large pose variations. In this work, we address both problems by proposing a novel deep person image generation model for…

By the Fox's re-embedding theorem, any compact submanifold of the 3-sphere can be re-embedded in the 3-sphere so that it is unknotted. It is unknown whether the Fox's re-embedding can be replaced with twistings. In this paper, we will show that any closed 2-manifold embedded in the 3-sphere can be unknotted by twisting…

Understanding deep neural networks is a major research objective with notable experimental and theoretical attention in recent years. The practical success of excessively large networks underscores the need for better theoretical analyses and justifications. In this paper we focus on layer-wise functional structure and…
RE enhances DL by learning model behavior, enabling iterative self-improvement.
Re-speaking is a mechanism for obtaining high quality subtitles for use in live broadcast and other public events. Because it relies on humans performing the actual re-speaking, the task of estimating the quality of the results is non-trivial. Most organisations rely on humans to perform the actual quality assessment, …
