48 results for Recovering singularities

Singular values of a data in a matrix form provide insights on the structure of the data, the effective dimensionality, and the choice of hyper-parameters on higher-level data analysis tools. However, in many practical applications such as collaborative filtering and network analysis, we only get a partial observation.…

We present here a result of Monomialization of real analytic two-symmetric tensor fields over regular real analytic surfaces. We apply it to the (extension of the pull-back of the) inner metric of a resolved surface of a real analytic surface singularity. Doing so we recover Hsiang & Pati property at each point of the …

In General Relativity the metric can be recovered from the structure of the lightcones and a measure giving the volume element. Since the causal structure seems to be simpler than the Lorentzian manifold structure, this suggests that it is more fundamental. But there are cases when seemingly healthy causal structure an…

In this article we apply ideas from homotopy theory to the study of singular foliations. We verify that a technical lemma remains valid for left semi-model categories. When applied to the category of LL_\infty-algebroids thanks to the work of Nuiten, this lemma enables to recover results very similar to those of Laure…

We construct smooth solutions to Ricci flow starting from a class of singular metrics and give asymptotics for the forward evolution. The singular metrics heal with a set of points (of codimension at least three) coming out of the singular point. We conjecture that these metrics arise as final-time limits of Ricci flow…

We investigate 3-dimensional globally hyperbolic AdS manifolds containing "particles", i.e., cone singularities along a graph ΓΓ. We impose physically relevant conditions on the cone singularities, e.g. positivity of mass (angle less than 2π on time-like singular segments). We construct examples of such manifolds, d…

Several results on existence and convergence of the Yang-Mills flow in dimension four are given. We show that a singularity modeled on an instanton cannot form within finite time. Given low initial self-dual energy, we then study convergence of the flow at infinite time. If an Uhlenbeck limit is anti-self-dual and has …
