The problem of local feedback equivalence for 1-dimensional control systems of the 1-st order is considered. The algebra of differential invariants and criteria for the feedback equivalence for regular control systems are found.

In this paper we work toward the Homflypt skein module of the lens spaces $L(p,1)$, $\mathcal{S}(L(p,1))$, using braids. In particular, we establish the connection between $\mathcal{S}({\rm ST})$, the Homflypt skein module of the solid torus ST, and $\mathcal{S}(L(p,1))$ and arrive at an infinite system, whose solution…

The paper generalizes Monge-Ampère equations and their solutions in differential geometry.

In this paper we present recent results toward the computation of the HOMFLYPT skein module of the lens spaces $L(p,1)$, $\mathcal{S}\left(L(p,1) \right)$, via braids. Our starting point is the knot theory of the solid torus ST and the Lambropoulou invariant, $X$, for knots and links in ST, the universal analogue of th…

Spatio-temporal (ST) data, which represent multiple time series data corresponding to different spatial locations, are ubiquitous in real-world dynamic systems, such as air quality readings. Forecasting over ST data is of great importance but challenging as it is affected by many complex factors, including spatial char…

This paper proposes a geometry-aware active learning framework for spatiotemporal dynamic systems.

We study an intrinsic distribution, called polar, on the space of $l$-dimensional integral elements of the higher order contact structure on jet spaces. The main result establishes that this exterior differential system is the prolongation of a natural system of PDEs, named pasting conditions, on sections of the bundle…

We prove a regularity result for unit volume conformal metrics with integral scalar curvature bounds for $p>n/2$ and first eigenvalue of $Δ$ bounded from below by a constant $B > Λ_1(S^n,[g_{st.}]).$

Let $D_n$ denote the $n$-punctured disk in the complex plane, where the punctures are on the real axis. An $n$-braid $α$ is said to be \emph{reducible} if there exists an essential curve system $\C$ in $D_n$, called a \emph{reduction system} of $α$, such that $α*\C=\C$ where $α*\C$ denotes the action of the braid $α$ o…

Unified framework for Arnold-type invariants via dual complexes and finite-difference structures.

In building intelligent transportation systems such as taxi or rideshare services, accurate prediction of travel time and distance is crucial for customer experience and resource management. Using the NYC taxi dataset, which contains taxi trips data collected from GPS-enabled taxis [23], this paper investigates the use…

We prove that, in order to derive the HOMFLYPT skein module of the lens spaces $L(p,1)$ from the HOMFLYPT skein module of the solid torus, $\mathcal{S}({\rm ST})$, it suffices to solve an infinite system of equations obtained by imposing on the Lambropoulou invariant $X$ for knots and links in the solid torus, braid ba…

Self-training improves generalization by fitting to reliable pseudo-labels or gradually improving the classification plane.

Spatio-temporal (ST) data for urban applications, such as taxi demand, traffic flow, regional rainfall is inherently stochastic and unpredictable. Recently, deep learning based ST prediction models are proposed to learn the ST characteristics of data. However, it is still very challenging (1) to adequately learn the co…

In this paper, we introduce an equivalence relation on the set of local moves and classify local moves, called the extended $ST$-moves, up to the equivalence. Moreover, by inducing a binary relation on the set of equivalence classes of local moves, we show that an extended $ST$-move realizes the crossing change or the …

We show that two Alexander biquandles M and M' are isomorphic iff there is an isomorphism of Z[s,1/s,t,1/t]-modules h:(1-st)M --> (1-st)M' and a bijection g:O_s(A) --> O_s(A') between the s-orbits of sets of coset representatives of M/(1-st)M and M'/(1-st)M' respectively satisfying certain compatibility conditions.

We study the problem of subspace tracking in the presence of missing data (ST-miss). In recent work, we studied a related problem called robust ST. In this work, we show that a simple modification of our robust ST solution also provably solves ST-miss and robust ST-miss. To our knowledge, our result is the first `compl…

In this paper, we develop a reinforcement learning (RL) based system to learn an effective policy for carpooling that maximizes transportation efficiency so that fewer cars are required to fulfill the given amount of trip demand. For this purpose, first, we develop a deep neural network model, called ST-NN (Spatio-Temp…

New method for computing Kauffman bracket skein module of lens spaces using unoriented braids.

Let $G$ be a connected complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with a standard multiplicative Poisson structure $π_{\rm st}$ determined by a pair of opposite Borel subgroups $(B, B_-)$. We prove that for each $v$ in the Weyl group $W$ of $G$, the double Bruhat cell $G^{v,v} = BvB \cap B_-vB_-$ in $G$, together with the …

Arnold introduced invariants $J^+$, $J^-$ and $St$ for generic planar curves. It is known that both $J^+ /2 + St$ and $J^- /2 + St$ are invariants for generic spherical curves. Applying these invariants to underlying curves of knot diagrams, we can obtain lower bounds for the number of Reidemeister moves for uknotting.…

ST-MAML tackles task ambiguity in meta-learning by encoding tasks with stochastic representations.

The Straight-Through (ST) estimator is a widely used technique for back-propagating gradients through discrete random variables. However, this effective method lacks theoretical justification. In this paper, we show that ST can be interpreted as the simulation of the projected Wasserstein gradient flow (pWGF). Based on…

The natural bundle $π:E\to M$ of almost-complex structures is considered. The action of the pseudogroup of all diffeomorphisms of $M$ on the total space $E$ is investigated. A nontrivial 1-st order differential invariant of this action is constructed. It is proved that the Nijenhuise tensor of an almost-complex structu…

This paper presents a decomposition of the 3-strand Singular Braid Group.

In this paper we give an alternative basis, $\mathcal{B}_{\rm ST}$, for the Kauffman bracket skein module of the solid torus, ${\rm KBSM}\left({\rm ST}\right)$. The basis $\mathcal{B}_{\rm ST}$ is obtained with the use of the Tempereley--Lieb algebra of type B and it is appropriate for computing the Kauffman bracket sk…

Surface mount technology (SMT) is a process for producing printed circuit boards. Solder paste printer (SPP), package mounter, and solder reflow oven are used for SMT. The board on which the solder paste is deposited from the SPP is monitored by solder paste inspector (SPI). If SPP malfunctions due to the printer defec…

Karl Menger's 1934 paper on the St. Petersburg paradox contains mathematical errors that invalidate his conclusion that unbounded utility functions, specifically Bernoulli's logarithmic utility, fail to resolve modified versions of the St. Petersburg paradox.

We introduce and study a notion of `Sasaki with torsion structure' (ST) as an odd-dimensional analogue of Kähler with torsion geometry (KT). These are normal almost contact metric manifolds that admit a unique compatible connection with 3-form torsion. Any odd-dimensional compact Lie group is shown to admit such a stru…

We prove a Chekanov-type theorem for the spherization of the cotangent bundle $ST^*B$ of a closed manifold $B$. It claims that for Legendrian submanifolds in $ST^*B$ the property "to be given by a generating family quadratic at infinity" persists under Legendrian isotopies.

The structure set $\ST^{TOP}(M)$ of an $n$-dimensional topological manifold $M$ for $n \geqslant 5$ has a homotopy invariant functorial abelian group structure, by the algebraic version of the Browder-Novikov-Sullivan-Wall surgery theory. An element $(N,f) \in \ST^{TOP}(M)$ is an equivalence class of $n$-dimensional ma…
