Quantum map counts BPS states in special theories.

We prove that Dranishnikov's $k$-dimensional resolution $d_k\colon μ^k\to Q$ is a UV$^{n-1}$-divider of Chigogidze's $k$-dimensional resolution $c_k$. This fact implies that $d_k^{-1}$ preserves $Z$-sets. A further development of the concept of UV$^{n-1}$-dividers permits us to find sufficient conditions for $d_k^{-1}(…

The paper proves UV finiteness and vanishing anomalies for hybrid topological-holomorphic field theories.

This paper studies the interplay between the N=2 gauge theories in three and four dimensions that have a geometric description in terms of twisted compactification of the six-dimensional (2,0) SCFT. Our main goal is to construct the three-dimensional domain walls associated to any three-dimensional cobordism. We find t…

Paper explores ML for UV spectra, showing transferability in chemical space.

A recent proposal by Ryu and Takayanagi for a holographic interpretation of entanglement entropy in conformal field theories dual to supergravity on anti-de Sitter (adS) is generalized to include entanglement entropy of black holes living on the boundary of adS. The generalized proposal is verified in boundary dimensio…

Paper proposes methods to discover causal models with unobserved variables.

A homological selection theorem for C-spaces, as well as, a finite-dimensional homological selection theorem is established. We apply the finite-dimensional homological selection theorem to obtain fixed-point theorems for usco homologically UV^n set-valued maps.

A new method converts knot Floer homology to immersed curves.

We study the effect of a relevant double-trace deformation on the partition function (and conformal anomaly) of a CFT at large N and its dual picture in AdS. Three complementary previous results are brought into full agreement with each other: bulk and boundary computations, as well as their formal identity. We show th…

Link Floer homology is split into snake complexes and local systems.

We derive and study supergravity BPS flow equations for M5 or D3 branes wrapping a Riemann surface. They take the form of novel geometric flows intrinsically defined on the surface. Their dual field-theoretic interpretation suggests the existence of solutions interpolating between an arbitrary metric in the UV and the …

We prove that for every compactum $X$ and every integer $n \geq 2$ there are a compactum $Z$ of $\dim \leq n+1$ and a surjective $UV^{n-1}$-map $r: Z \lo X$ such that for every abelian group $G$ and every integer $k \geq 2$ such that $\dim_G X \leq k \leq n$ we have $\dim_G Z \leq k$ and $r$ is $G$-acyclic.

In this paper we consider the local X-ray transform for general flows. We extend the results on the local and global invertibility of the geodesic ray transform proved by Uhlmann and Vasy \cite{UV} to the X-ray transform for a general flow. The key improvement is that our argument for the ellipticity of the conjugated …

Chronos models improve financial forecasting by integrating multivariate data.

New homomorphisms from knot Floer homology help classify knots.

This work includes all the technical details of the Sequential Principal Curves Analysis (SPCA) in a single document. SPCA is an unsupervised nonlinear and invertible feature extraction technique. The identified curvilinear features can be interpreted as a set of nonlinear sensors: the response of each sensor is the pr…

We show that for two dimensional manifolds M with negative Euler characteristic there exists subsets of the space of smooth Riemannian metrics which are invariant and either parabolic or backwards-parabolic for the 2nd order RG flow. We also show that solutions exists globally on these sets. Finally, we establish the e…

New method computes knot Floer homology for satellite knots.

We consider the non-square matrix sensing problem, under restricted isometry property (RIP) assumptions. We focus on the non-convex formulation, where any rank-$r$ matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ is represented as $UV^\top$, where $U \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times r}$ and $V \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times r}$. In this paper…

Maps links in 3-manifolds to links in branched covers, relating quantum field theories.

Study topological correlators for $SU(2)$ SYM on four-manifolds, deriving explicit formulae and confirming S-duality.

It is classically known that generic smooth maps of R^2 into R^3 admit only cross cap singularities. This suggests that the class of cross caps might be an important object in differential geometry. We show that the standard cross cap (u,uv,v^2) has non-trivial isometric deformations with infinite dimensional freedom. …

Researchers find new $G_2$-conifolds in $M$-theory with potential field theory duals.

We investigate reductions of the two-dimensional Dirac equation imposed by the requirement of the existence of a differential operator $D_n$ of order $n$ mapping its eigenfunctions to adjoint eigenfunctions. For first order operators these reductions (and multi-component analogs thereof) lead to the Lame equations desc…

Statistical inference on graphs is a burgeoning field in the applied and theoretical statistics communities, as well as throughout the wider world of science, engineering, business, etc. In many applications, we are faced with the reality of errorfully observed graphs. That is, the existence of an edge between two vert…

We analyze the effect of adding, removing, and moving basepoints on link Floer homology. We prove that adding or removing basepoints via a procedure called quasi-stabilization is a natural operation on a certain version of link Floer homology, which we call $CFL_{UV}^\infty$. We consider the effect on the full link Flo…

Let $X$ be a connected compact 3-manifold with non-empty boundary. Consider the boundary $M$ of $X\times D^2$. $M$ is a 4-dimensional closed manifold and has the same fundamental group as $X$. Various examples of $X$ are known for which a certain assembly map $A:H_4(X;L)\to L_4(π_1(X))$ is injective. For such an $X$ an…

Gradient descent on autoencoders can solve dictionary learning problems under certain conditions.

We show that a left-invariant metric g on a nilpotent Lie group N is a soliton metric if and only if a matrix U and vector v associated the manifold (N,g) satisfy the matrix equation Uv = [1], where [1] is a vector with every entry a one. We associate a generalized Cartan matrix to the matrix U and use the theory of Ka…

We identify a large class R of three-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. This class includes the effective theories T_M of M5-branes wrapped on 3-manifolds M, discussed in previous work by the authors, and more generally comprises theories that admit a UV description as abelian Chern-Simons-matter theories w…
