PEAR dynamically reconfigures agent roles to prevent persistent biases in multi-agent debates.

problem Persistent positional biases and sensitivity to role assignments in fixed topologies.
method Dynamic reconfiguration of agent roles and sparse topologies based on evolving agent states.

Public debates are a common platform for presenting and juxtaposing diverging views on important issues. In this work we propose a methodology for tracking how ideas flow between participants throughout a debate. We use this approach in a case study of Oxford-style debates---a competitive format where the winner is det…

Nous considérons un espace topologique qui est localement isomorphe au quotient de R^k par l'action d'un groupe discret et nous l'appelons quasi-variété de dimension k. Les quasi-variétés généralisent les variétés et les V-variétés et représentent le cadre naturel pour la réduction symplectique par rapport à l'action i…

Dans les années 1940-1970, Alexandrov et l'"École de Leningrad" ont développé une théorie très riche des surfaces singulières. Il s'agit de surfaces topologiques, munie d'une métrique intrinsèque pour laquelle on peut définir une notion de courbure, qui est une mesure de Radon. Cette classe de surfaces a de bonnes prop…

First-best climate policy is a uniform carbon tax which gradually rises over time. Civil servants have complicated climate policy to expand bureaucracies, politicians to create rents. Environmentalists have exaggerated climate change to gain influence, other activists have joined the climate bandwagon. Opponents to cli…

The un-reduction procedure introduced previously in the context of Mechanics is extended to covariant Field Theory. The new covariant un-reduction procedure is applied to the problem of shape matching of images which depend on more than one independent variable (for instance, time and an additional labelling parameter)…

Résumé. Nous définissons un groupoïde de Fréchet-Lie Map(S^1,X) d'ana-foncteurs du cercle vers un groupoïde de Lie X. Ceci fournit une présentation du Hom-champ Hom(S^1,\cX), où \cX est le champ différentiable associé à X.

In this paper we consider an alternative approach to "un-reduction". This is the process where one associates to a Lagrangian system on a manifold a dynamical system on a principal bundle over that manifold, in such a way that solutions project. We show that, when written in terms of second-order ordinary differential …

The purpose of this paper is to show that any extension of a minimal Lie foliation on a compact manifold is a transversaly Riemannian g\h- foliation with trivial normal bundle. This result permits to classify the extensions of a minimal Lie foliation on a compact manifold from the Lie subgroups of its Lie group.

We present an invariant of a three-dimensional manifold with a framed knot in it based on the Reidemeister torsion of an acyclic complex of Euclidean geometric origin. To show its nontriviality, we calculate the invariant for some framed (un)knots in lens spaces. Our invariant is related to a finite-dimensional fermion…

The theory of Vassiliev invariants deals with many modules of diagrams on which the algebra Lambda defined by Pierre Vogel acts. By specifying a quadratic simple Lie superalgebra, one obtains a character on Lambda. We show the coherence of these characters by building a map of graded algebras beetwen Lambda and a quoti…

The process of un-reduction, a sort of reversal of reduction by the Lie group symmetries of a variational problem, is explored in the setting of field theories. This process is applied to the problem of curve matching in the plane, when the curves depend on more than one independent variable. This situation occurs in a…
