Approximate vanishing ideal is a concept from computer algebra that studies the algebraic varieties behind perturbed data points. To capture the nonlinear structure of perturbed points, the introduction of approximation to exact vanishing ideals plays a critical role. However, such an approximation also gives rise to a…
Springer varieties appear in both geometric representation theory and knot theory. Motivated by knot theory and categorification Khovanov provides a topological construction of (n/2,n/2) Springer varieties. We extend Khovanov's construction to all two-row Springer varieties. Using the combinatorial and diagrammatic …
We construct a canonical basis of two-cycles, on a K3 surface, in which the intersection form takes the canonical form 2E8(−1)⊕3H. The basic elements are realized by formal sums of smooth submanifolds.
We study natural bases for two constructions of the irreducible representation of the symmetric group corresponding to [n,n,n]: the {\em reduced web} basis associated to Kuperberg's combinatorial description of the spider category; and the {\em left cell basis} for the left cell construction of Kazhdan and Lusztig. I…
We construct a new inductive basis of the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra. Using it, we provide a new proof of the existence of the Markov trace on the BMW algebras affording the two-variable Kauffman polynomial. We prove also that all the transverse Markov traces on the BMW algebras are determined by the self-linking nu…
Recently there has been renewed interest in the mapping-class group of a compact surface of genus g≥2 and also in its finite order elements. A finite order element of the mapping-class group will be a conformal automorphisms on some Riemann surface of genus g. Here we give the details of the proof that there is…
I-non-degenerate spaces are spacetimes that can be characterized uniquely by their scalar curvature invariants. The ultimate goal of the current work is to construct a basis for the scalar polynomial curvature invariants in three dimensional Lorentzian spacetimes. In particular, we seek a minimal set of alg…
A new WNN framework selects wavelet bases for efficient learning.
problem Challenges in constructing accurate wavelet bases and high computational costs in WNN.
method Introduces a constructive WNN that selects initial bases and trains functions by introducing new bases for predefined accuracy while reducing computational costs.
result Significantly improves computational efficiency through a frequency estimator and wavelet-basis increase mechanism.
Kernel methods are widespread in machine learning; however, they are limited by the quadratic complexity of the construction, application, and storage of kernel matrices. Low-rank matrix approximation algorithms are widely used to address this problem and reduce the arithmetic and storage cost. However, we observed tha…
Radial-basis-function networks are traditionally defined for sets of vector-based observations. In this short paper, we reformulate such networks so that they can be applied to adjacency-matrix representations of weighted, directed graphs that represent the relationships between object pairs. We re-state the sum-of-squ…
We compare two important bases of an irreducible representation of the symmetric group: the web basis and the Specht basis. The web basis has its roots in the Temperley-Lieb algebra and knot-theoretic considerations. The Specht basis is a classic algebraic and combinatorial construction of symmetric group representatio…
In view of the result of Kontsevich, now often called ``the fundamental theorem of Vassiliev theory'', identifying the graded dual of the associated graded vector space to the space of Vassiliev invariants filtered by degree with the linear span of chord diagrams modulo the ``4T-relation'' (and in the unframed case, th…
A number of fundamental quantities in statistical signal processing and information theory can be expressed as integral functions of two probability density functions. Such quantities are called density functionals as they map density functions onto the real line. For example, information divergence functions measure t…
Surgery triangles are an important computational tool in Floer homology. Given a connected oriented surface Σ, we consider the abelian group K(Σ) generated by bordered 3-manifolds with boundary Σ, modulo the relation that the three manifolds involved in any surgery triangle sum to zero. We show that K(Σ) is a f…
In 2006, Fock and Goncharov constructed a nice basis of the ring of regular functions on the moduli space of framed PGL2-local systems on a punctured surface S. The moduli space is birational to a cluster X-variety, whose positive real points recover the enhanced Teichmüller space of S. Their b…
We consider the problem of designing a sparse Gaussian process classifier (SGPC) that generalizes well. Viewing SGPC design as constructing an additive model like in boosting, we present an efficient and effective SGPC design method to perform a stage-wise optimization of a predictive loss function. We introduce new me…
In many applications (in particular information systems, such as pattern recognition, machine learning, cheminformatics, bioinformatics to name but a few) the assessment of uncertainty is essential - i.e., the estimation of the underlying probability distribution function. More often than not, the form of this function…
In this paper, we propose a generic framework for devising an adaptive approximation scheme for value function approximation in reinforcement learning, which introduces multiscale approximation. The two basic ingredients are multiresolution analysis as well as tree approximation. Starting from simple refinable function…
In this paper we define an explicit basis for the gln-web algebra Hn(k) (the gln generalization of Khovanov's arc algebra) using categorified q-skew Howe duality. Our construction is a gln-web version of Hu--Mathas' graded cellular basis and has two major application…
We use the Jones-Wenzl idempotents to construct a basis of Temperley-Lieb algebra TL_n. This allows a short calculation for a Gram determinant of Lickorish's bilinear form on the Temperley-Lieb algebra.
