New applications of trace embedding lemma show exotic 4-manifolds properties.

Let $M$ be a closed connected smooth manifold and $G=\textmd{Diff}_0(M)$ denote the connected component of the diffeomorphism group of $M$ containing the identity. The natural action of $G$ on $M$ induces the trace homomorphism on homology. We show that the image of trace homomorphism is annihilated by the subalgebra o…

In this article, we introduce an analogous problem to Yamabe type problem considered by Case, J., which generalizes the Escobar-Riemann mapping problem for smooth metric measure spaces with boundary. The last problem will be called Escobar-Riemann mapping type problem. For this purpose, we consider the generalization o…

Study of knots sharing 0-surgeries, classifying and computing their properties.

A central result here is the computation of the entire cyclic homology of canonical smooth subalgebras of stable continuous trace C*-algebras having smooth manifolds M as their spectrum. More precisely, the entire cyclic homology is shown to be canonically isomorphic to the continuous periodic cyclic homology for these…

We study a "div-grad type" sub-Laplacian with respect to a smooth measure and its associated heat semigroup on a compact equiregular sub-Riemannian manifold. We prove a short time asymptotic expansion of the heat trace up to any order. Our main result holds true for any smooth measure on the manifold, but it has a spec…

In this thesis we study the geometry of the fixed point set $Σ$ of a smooth mapping $Φ: M\to M$ on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary by computing the asymptotic expansion of the deformed heat trace $\Trace Φ\exp(tΔ)$ of the Laplace operator $Δ$ on $M$. We assume that the fixed point set $Σ$ is a…

The flat trace of geodesic Koopman operators varies with negatively curved surfaces.

Let $F$ be a smooth foliation on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$, and let $Λ$ be a transverse invariant measure of $F$. Suppose that $Λ$ is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure on smooth transversals. Then a topological definition of the $Λ$-Lefschetz number of any leaf preserving diffeomorphism …

New heat trace coefficients reveal curvature effects in polygonal domains.

We study the heat trace for both the drifting Laplacian as well as Schrödinger operators on compact Riemannian manifolds. In the case of a finite regularity potential or weight function, we prove the existence of a partial (six term) asymptotic expansion of the heat trace for small times as well as a suitable remainder…

Study of singularities in two-dimensional Nijenhuis operators with non-zero trace differential.

We introduce a new family of matrix norms, the "local max" norms, generalizing existing methods such as the max norm, the trace norm (nuclear norm), and the weighted or smoothed weighted trace norms, which have been extensively used in the literature as regularizers for matrix reconstruction problems. We show that this…

Let $Ω_0$ be a polygon in $\RR^2$, or more generally a compact surface with piecewise smooth boundary and corners. Suppose that $Ω_\e$ is a family of surfaces with $\calC^\infty$ boundary which converges to $Ω_0$ smoothly away from the corners, and in a precise way at the vertices to be described in the paper. Fedosov …

qDKT improves KT models by considering individual question outcomes.

The central result here is an explicit computation of the Hochschild and cyclic homologies of a natural smooth subalgebra of stable continuous trace algebras having smooth manifolds X as their spectrum. More precisely, the Hochschild homology is identified with the space of differential forms on X, and the periodic cyc…

For non-smooth surfaces, the measure of Brownian loops is derived using the Polyakov-Alvarez formula.

We concern $C^2$-compactness of the solution set of the boundary Yamabe problem on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary provided that their dimensions are $4$, $5$ or $6$. By conducting a quantitative analysis of a linear equation associated with the problem, we prove that the trace-free second fundamental…

Zeroth-order methods favor flat minima in machine learning.

We propose a rank-$k$ variant of the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm to solve convex optimization over a trace-norm ball. Our algorithm replaces the top singular-vector computation ($1$-SVD) in Frank-Wolfe with a top-$k$ singular-vector computation ($k$-SVD), which can be done by repeatedly applying $1$-SVD $k$ times. …

This is a continuation of our previous work arXiv:1601.05617 on trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. More new inequalities for the trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues are obtained.

For a given bounded domain $Ω\subset {\Bbb R}^n$ with smooth boundary, we explicitly calculate the first two coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace associated with the Stokes operator as $t\to 0^+$. These coefficients (i.e., heat invariants) provide precise information for the volume of the domain $…

We prove Tsygan's formality conjecture for Hochschild chains of the algebra of functions on an arbitrary smooth manifold M using the Fedosov resolutions proposed in math.QA/0307212 and the formality quasi-isomorphism for Hochschild chains of R[[y_1, ..., y_d]] proposed in paper math.QA/0010321 by Shoikhet. This result …

Classifies knot traces with specific trisection genus limits.

We give a method for constructing many pairs of distinct knots $K_0$ and $K_1$ such that the two 4-manifolds obtained by attaching a 2-handle to $B^4$ along $K_i$ with framing zero are diffeomorphic. We use the d-invariants of Heegaard Floer homology to obstruct the smooth concordance of some of these $K_0$ and $K_1$, …

Anti-self-dual (ASD) connections for a compact smooth four manifold arise as critical values for the Yang-Mills action functional. Nahm transform is a nice correspondence between a vector bundle with ASD connections and a vector bundle with ASD connections over Picard torus associated to X. In this talk we propose a no…

We prove that the balanced Chekhov-Fock algebra of a punctured triangulated surface is isomorphic to a skein algebra which is a deformation of the algebra of regular functions of some abelian character variety. We first deduce from this observation a classification of the irreducible representations of the balanced Che…
