The aim of this paper is to compare statistical properties of stock price indices in periods of booms with those in periods of stagnations. We use the daily data of the four stock price indices in the major stock markets in the world: (i) the Nikkei 225 index (Nikkei 225) from January 4, 1975 to August 18, 2004, of (ii…

We show a connection between a surgery exact sequence in knot Floer homology and the sequence derived in [18]. As a consequence of this relationship we see that the exact sequence in [18] also works with coherent orientations and admits refinements with respect to spinc-structures. As an application of this discussion,…

The study proves surfaces with high genus have a specific inequality.

Authors determine the SL(2,C) character variety of a specific knot without computer aid.

We establish a classification of cubic minimal cones in case of the so-called radial eigencubics. Our principal result states that any radial eigencubic is either a member of the infinite family of eigencubics of Clifford type, or belongs to one of 18 exceptional families. We prove that at least 12 of the 18 families a…

If p/q > 18, p is odd, and $p/q \ne 37/2$, (p,q)-Dehn surgery for the (-2,3,7)-pretzel knot produces a 3-manifold without Reebless foliation.

We address the question of the growth of firm size. To this end, we analyze the Compustat data base comprising all publicly-traded United States manufacturing firms within the years 1974-1993. We find that the distribution of firm sizes remains stable for the 20 years we study, i.e., the mean value and standard deviati…

Empirical comparison of 18 hyperparameter tuning algorithms for SVM.

We construct a new type of geometric knot theory, plumbers' knots, and solve the problems of distinguishing and enumerating such knots at a fixed level of complexity. (v2) Minor edits, added theorem 3.18. (v3) Substantial revisions, essentially completely rewritten in places.

The Teichmüller harmonic map flow deforms both a map from an oriented closed surface $M$ into an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold, and a constant curvature metric on $M$, so as to reduce the energy of the map as quickly as possible [16]. The flow then tries to converge to a branched minimal immersion when it can [1…

Voice conversion (VC) aims at conversion of speaker characteristic without altering content. Due to training data limitations and modeling imperfections, it is difficult to achieve believable speaker mimicry without introducing processing artifacts; performance assessment of VC, therefore, usually involves both speaker…

The paper studies orbifold braid groups and their properties.

In this paper, we firstly verify that if $M$ is a complete self-shrinker with polynomial volume growth in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and if the squared norm of the second fundamental form of $M$ satisfies $0\leq|A|^2-1\leq\frac{1}{18}$, then $|A|^2\equiv1$ and $M$ is a round sphere or a cylinder. More generally, let $M$ be a …

Constructs symplectic surface bundles with positive signatures.

This note is a report on the observation that some singular varieties admit Calabi--Yau coverings. As an application, we construct 18 new Calabi--Yau 3-folds with Picard number one that have some interesting properties.

Proves some flat spacetimes can't be extended smoothly.

Syllabification does not seem to improve word-level RNN language modeling quality when compared to character-based segmentation. However, our best syllable-aware language model, achieving performance comparable to the competitive character-aware model, has 18%-33% fewer parameters and is trained 1.2-2.2 times faster.

The paper provides formulas linking knot invariants to deformation quantization.

Since Giles introduced the multilevel Monte Carlo path simulation method [18], there has been rapid development of the technique for a variety of applications in computational finance. This paper surveys the progress so far, highlights the key features in achieving a high rate of multilevel variance convergence, and su…

A modular cash-overlay rule for allocating between a fixed growth-defensive risky sleeve and interest-bearing cash.

Higher chromatic numbers $χ_s$ of simplicial complexes naturally generalize the chromatic number $χ_1$ of a graph. In any fixed dimension $d$, the $s$-chromatic number $χ_s$ of $d$-complexes can become arbitrarily large for $s\leq\lceil d/2\rceil$ [6,18]. In contrast, $χ_{d+1}=1$, and only little is known on $χ_s$ for …

Recurrent sequence generators conditioned on input data through an attention mechanism have recently shown very good performance on a range of tasks in- cluding machine translation, handwriting synthesis and image caption gen- eration. We extend the attention-mechanism with features needed for speech recognition. We sh…

We show that one-dimensional circle is the only case for closed smooth metric measure spaces with nonnegative Bakry-Émery Ricci curvature whose spectrum of the weighted Laplacian has an optimal positive upper bound. This result extends the work of Hang-Wang in the manifold case (Int. Math. Res. Not. 18 (2007), Art. ID …

A financial data provider shares insights on managing complexity in processing 18 billion daily notifications.

The well known Chen's conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds states that a biharmonic submanifold in a Euclidean space is a minimal one ([10-13, 16, 18-21, 8]). For the case of hypersurfaces, we know that Chen's conjecture is true for biharmonic surfaces in $\mathbb E^3$ ([10], [24]), biharmonic hypersurfaces in $\mathb…

We classify non-dilatonic NS-NS type II supergravity backgrounds admitting a consistent absolute parallelism. They are all given by parallelised Lie groups admitting scalar flat bi-invariant lorentzian metrics. There are seven different classes, some of them containing moduli. For each class we determine the amount of …

Unifies 18 definitions of surprise, classifies them into four categories.

We construct the first explicit example of a simplicial 3-ball B_{15,66} that is not collapsible. It has only 15 vertices. We exhibit a second 3-ball B_{12,38} with 12 vertices that is collapsible and evasive, but not shellable. Finally, we present the first explicit triangulation of a 3-sphere S_{18, 125} (with only 1…

In this article, using the generalized Newton transformation, we define higher order mean curvatures of distributions of arbitrary codimension and we show that they agree with the ones from Brito and Naveira (Ann. Global Anal. Geom. 18, 371-383 (2000)). We also introduce higher order mean curvature vector fields and we…

BIGMACS aligns multiple ocean sediment cores using Bayesian inference and Gaussian process regression.

Generative models create synthetic MRI brain scans for research.

This paper concerns the Dehn surgery construction, especially those Dehn surgeries leaving the manifold unchanged. In particular, we describe an oriented 1-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold X with a pair of slopes r_1, r_2 such that the Dehn filled manifolds X(r_1), X(r_2) are oppositely oriented copies of the lens space L(…

Through computer enumeration with the aid of topological results, we catalogue all 18 closed non-orientable P^2-irreducible 3-manifolds that can be formed from at most eight tetrahedra. In addition we give an overview as to how the 100 resulting minimal triangulations are constructed. Observations and conjectures are d…

We study invariant Einstein metrics on the indicated homogeneous manifolds $M$, the corresponding algebraic Einstein equations $E$, the associated with $M$ and $E$ Newton polytopes $P(M)$, and the integer volumes $ν= ν(P(M))$ of it (the Newton numbers). We show that $ν= 80, 152,...,152$ respectively. It is claimed that…

Using a new estimate for the Peng-Terng invariant and the multiple-parameter method, we verify a rigidity theorem on the stronger version of Chern Conjecture for minimal hypersurfaces in spheres. More precisely, we prove that if $M$ is a compact minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ whose squared length of the sec…

We generalize the Bartsch-Li's splitting lemma at infinity for $C^2$-functionals in [2] and some later variants of it to a class of continuously directional differentiable functionals on Hilbert spaces. Different from the previous flow methods our proof is to combine the ideas of the Morse-Palais lemma due to Duc-Hung-…

We define the infinitesimal and geometric orders of an effective Klein geometry G/H. Using these concepts, we prove i) For any integer m>1, there exists an effective Klein geometry G/H of infinitesimal order m such that G/H is a projective variety (Corollary 9). ii) An effective Klein geometry G/H of geometric order M …

This paper introduces channel gating, a dynamic, fine-grained, and hardware-efficient pruning scheme to reduce the computation cost for convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Channel gating identifies regions in the features that contribute less to the classification result, and skips the computation on a subset of the …

\begin{abstract} The aim of this paper is to study the spanning power of options in a static financial market that allows non-integrable assets. Our findings extend and unify the results in [8,9,18] for $L_p$-models. We also apply the spanning power properties to the pricing problem. In particular, we show that prices …

The rigidity of marked length spectrum for closed hyperbolic surfaces due to Fricke-Klein [7] has been the motivation of many different rigidity results, specially for manifolds of negative curvature. From the works of Vigneras [18], Sunada [17] and many other authors this result is far from being true for the unmarked…
