Generalizes Rips' result on hyperbolic spaces to metric spaces, showing collapses for tree metrics.

Starting from the (apparently) elementary problem of deciding how many different topological spaces can be obtained by gluing together in pairs the faces of an octahedron, we will describe the central role played by hyperbolic geometry within three-dimensional topology. We will also point out the striking difference wi…

Paper studies apparent horizon dynamics and introduces a null comparison principle.

Using one of the key property of copulas that they remain invariant under an arbitrary monotonous change of variable, we investigate the null hypothesis that the dependence between financial assets can be modeled by the Gaussian copula. We find that most pairs of currencies and pairs of major stocks are compatible with…

Construct opers with apparent singularities from λ-connections on Riemann surfaces.

In this paper we characterize the intrinsic geometry of apparent horizons (outermost marginally outer trapped surfaces) in asymptotically flat spacetimes; that is, the Riemannian metrics on the two sphere which can arise. Furthermore we determine the minimal ADM mass of a spacetime containing such an apparent horizon. …

Solves Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds with specified boundaries.

Paper constructs new identities linking quantum invariants and modular forms.

In this paper we find new examples of Riemannian manifolds with outermost apparent horizons with nonspherical topology, in dimensions four and above. More precisely, for any $n,m\ge1$, we construct asymptotically flat, scalar flat Riemannian manifolds containing smooth outermost minimal hypersurfaces with topology $S^n…

For a pair of points in a smooth locally convex surface in 3-space, its mid-plane is the plane containing its mid-point and the intersection line of the corresponding pair of tangent planes. In this paper we show that the limit of mid-planes when one point tends to the other along a direction is the Transon plane of th…

Paper analyzes blowup of regularized Jang solutions and constant expansion surfaces.

This note shows surfaces in stable 3D data are bounded by area and diameter.

We prove a conjecture of Tom Ilmanen's and Hubert Bray's regarding the existence of the outermost generalized apparent horizon in an initial data set and that it is outer area minimizing.

Constructs initial data leading to apparent horizons and tests Penrose Inequality.

Stock networks, constructed from stock price time series, are a well-established tool for the characterization of complex behavior in stock markets. Following Mantegna's seminal paper, the linear Pearson's correlation coefficient between pairs of stocks has been the usual way to determine network edges. Recently, possi…

We establish a Positive Mass Theorem for initial data sets of the Einstein equations having generalized trapped surface boundary. In particular we answer a question posed by R. Wald concerning the existence of generalized apparent horizons in Minkowski space.

Given a submanifold $S \subset \mathbb R^n$ of codimension at least three, we construct an asymptotically Euclidean Riemannian metric on $\mathbb R^n$ with nonnegative scalar curvature for which the outermost apparent horizon is diffeomorphic to the unit normal bundle of $S$.

Ozeki and Takeuchi \cite[I]{OT} introduced the notion of Condition A and Condition B to construct two classes of inhomogeneous isoparametric hypersurfaces with four principal curvatures in spheres, which were later generalized by Ferus, Karcher and Münzner to many more examples via the Clifford representations; we will…

The paper shows how to create Schwarzschild initial data with degenerate apparent horizons.

Paper proves existence of anisotropic dynamical horizons in gravitational collapse.

We show that a natural class of twistorial maps gives a pattern for apparently different geometric maps, such as, $(1,1)$-geodesic immersions from $(1,2)$-symplectic almost Hermitian manifolds and pseudo horizontally conformal submersions with totally geodesic fibres for which the associated almost CR-structure is inte…

The paper studies curves in surfaces using flow-spines and apparent contours.

We study the long memory of order flow for each of three liquid currency pairs on a large electronic trading platform in the foreign exchange (FX) spot market. Due to the extremely high levels of market activity on the platform, and in contrast to existing empirical studies of other markets, our data enables us to perf…

Study shows formation of Kerr black holes with complete apparent horizons and proves Penrose inequalities.

Through simple analytical calculations and numerical simulations, we demonstrate the generic existence of a self-organized macroscopic state in any large multivariate system possessing non-vanishing average correlations between a finite fraction of all pairs of elements. The coexistence of an eigenvalue spectrum predic…

Reducing volatility proxy improves apparent market correlation dynamics.

Study of meromorphic connections and their spectral duals in $\mathfrak{gl}_3(\mathbb{C})$.

We propose a method to classify cardiac pathology based on a novel approach to extract image derived features to characterize the shape and motion of the heart. An original semi-supervised learning procedure, which makes efficient use of a large amount of non-segmented images and a small amount of images segmented manu…

Perceived personality traits attributed to an individual do not have to correspond to their actual personality traits and may be determined in part by the context in which one encounters a person. These apparent traits determine, to a large extent, how other people will behave towards them. Deep neural networks are inc…

Measuring the relationship between any pair of variables is a rich and active area of research that is central to scientific practice. In contrast, characterizing the common information among any group of variables is typically a theoretical exercise with few practical methods for high-dimensional data. A promising sol…

We study few-shot supervised domain adaptation (DA) for regression problems, where only a few labeled target domain data and many labeled source domain data are available. Many of the current DA methods base their transfer assumptions on either parametrized distribution shift or apparent distribution similarities, e.g.…

New method proves instability of naked singularity and censors it.

We construct asymptotically Euclidean solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations with an apparent horizon boundary condition. Specifically, we give sufficient conditions for the constant mean curvature conformal method to generate such solutions. The method of proof is based on the barrier method used by Ise…

Study constructs solutions for evolving hypersurfaces using inverse spacetime mean curvature.

In this paper, we address the problem of synthesizing multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) data, i.e. Apparent Diffusion Coefficients (ADC) and T2-weighted (T2w), containing clinically significant (CS) prostate cancer (PCa) via semi-supervised adversarial learning. Specifically, our synthesizer generates…

Bartnik mass is positive and non-decreasing for black holes

The paper addresses causal estimation for text data with apparent overlap violations.

In this paper, we consider daily financial data of a collection of different stock market indices, exchange rates, and interest rates, and we analyze their multi-scaling properties by estimating a simple specification of the Markov-switching multifractal model (MSM). In order to see how well the estimated models captur…

Risk-only investment strategies have been growing in popularity as traditional in- vestment strategies have fallen short of return targets over the last decade. However, risk-based investors should be aware of four things. First, theoretical considerations and empirical studies show that apparently dictinct risk-based …

Suppose curves are moving by curvature in a plane, but one embeds the plane in $R^3$ and looks at the plane from an angle. Then circles shrinking to a round point would appear to be ellipses shrinking to an ``elliptical point,'' and the surface energy would appear to be anisotropic as would the mobility. The result of …

Study examines Wang-Yau quasi-local energy in strong fields near apparent horizons.

A distinction has been drawn in fair machine learning research between `group' and `individual' fairness measures. Many technical research papers assume that both are important, but conflicting, and propose ways to minimise the trade-offs between these measures. This paper argues that this apparent conflict is based on…

Reviewed and extended Wang-Yau quasi-local mass definitions.

Understanding the diffusion in social network is an important task. However, this task is challenging since (1) the network structure is usually hidden with only observations of events like "post" or "repost" associated with each node, and (2) the interactions between nodes encompass multiple distinct patterns which in…

We solve Einstein vacuum equations in a spacetime region up to the "center" of gravitational collapse. Within this region, we construct a sequence of marginally outer trapped surfaces (MOTS) with areas going to zero. These MOTS form a marginally outer trapped tube (apparent horizon). It emerges from a point and is smoo…

Many complex systems exhibit extreme events far more often than expected for a normal distribution. This work examines how self-similar bursts of activity across several orders of magnitude can emerge from first principles in systems that adapt to information. Surprising connections are found between two apparently unr…

In 1985, Barnsley and Harrington defined a ``Mandelbrot Set'' $\mathcal{M}$ for pairs of similarities --- this is the set of complex numbers $z$ with $0<|z|<1$ for which the limit set of the semigroup generated by the similarities $x \mapsto zx$ and $x \mapsto z(x-1)+1$ is connected. Equivalently, $\mathcal{M}$ is the …
