Study finite deformations from heterotic superpotential, leading to new complex effective action.

We classify the transitive, effective, holomorphic actions of connected complex Lie groups on complex surfaces.

We introduce a method for learning the dynamics of complex nonlinear systems based on deep generative models over temporal segments of states and actions. Unlike dynamics models that operate over individual discrete timesteps, we learn the distribution over future state trajectories conditioned on past state, past acti…

Consider an effective Hamiltonian torus action $T\times M \to M$ on a topologically twisted,generalized complex manifold $M$ of dimension $2n$. We prove that the $rank(T) \leq n-2$ and that the topological twisting survives Hamiltonian reduction. We then construct a large new class of such actions satisfying $rank(T) =…

This paper provides theoretical foundations for using quantized actions in behavior cloning.

hyperSBINN improves drug cardiosafety assessment by efficiently modeling cardiac action potentials.

We give the diffeomorphism classification of complete intersections with S^1-symmetry in dimension less than or equal to 6. In particular, we show that a 6-dimensional complete intersection admits a smooth non-trivial S^1-action if and only if it is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space or the quadric. We also …

Abstract: Necessary and sufficient conditions for circle actions on 4-manifolds with discrete fixed points.

Study of curves in rational surfaces using multisections and torus actions.

On a generalized complex manifold there is an associated definition of a generalized holomorphic bundle, introduced by Gualtieri. This notion in the case of an ordinary complex structure yields an object which we call a co-Higgs bundle and we consider the B-field action of a closed form of type (1,1), both local and gl…

New RL algorithm tackles complex discrete action spaces.

RODE learns roles to simplify multi-agent tasks.

We construct new families of quasimorphisms on many groups acting on CAT(0) cube complexes. These quasimorphisms have a uniformly bounded defect of 12, and they "see" all elements that act hyperbolically on the cube complex. We deduce that all such elements have stable commutator length at least 1/24. The group actions…

New RL theory predicts deep RL success based on greedy actions under random policies.

We explicitly classify all pairs $(M,G)$, where $M$ is a connected complex manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ and $G$ is a connected Lie group acting properly and effectively on $M$ by holomorphic transformations and having dimension $d_G$ satisfying $n^2+2\le d_G<n^2+2n$. These results extend -- in the complex case -- the…

A new method learns action representations for reinforcement learning.

Proposes a bilinear form to efficiently represent high-order temporal action information.

Curved 10-manifolds with torus symmetry are spheres or complex projective spaces.

We show that any effective isometric torus action of maximal rank on a compact Riemannian manifold with positive (sectional) curvature and maximal symmetry rank, that is, on a positively curved sphere, lens space, complex or real projective space, is equivariantaly diffeomorphic to a linear action. We show that a compa…

Agents learn action spaces from observation alone.

New method for evaluating and learning in complex decision-making scenarios.

In this paper we continue to study actions of high-dimensional Lie groups on complex manifolds. We give a complete explicit description of all pairs $(M,G)$, where $M$ is a connected complex manifold $M$ of dimension $n\ge 2$, and $G$ is a connected Lie group of dimension $n^2+1$ acting effectively and properly on $M$ …

We consider Fano manifolds admitting an algebraic torus action with general orbit of codimension one. Using a recent result of Datar and Szekelyhidi, we effectively determine the existence of Kahler-Ricci solitons for those manifolds via the notion of equivariant K-stability. This allows us to give new examples of Kahl…

We define a "circle Euler characteristic" of a circle action on a compact manifold or finite complex X. It lies in the first Hochschild homology group of ZG where G is the fundamental group of X. It is analogous in many ways to the ordinary Euler characteristic. One application is an intuitively satisfying formula for …

New algorithm reduces sample complexity for planning in MDPs.

New algorithms mitigate impairment effect in stochastic bandits.

The objective of this work is to augment the basic abilities of a robot by learning to use new sensorimotor primitives to enable the solution of complex long-horizon problems. Solving long-horizon problems in complex domains requires flexible generative planning that can combine primitive abilities in novel combination…

The aim of this paper is to give an upper bound for the dimension of a torus $T$ which acts on a GKM manifold $M$ effectively. In order to do that, we introduce a free abelian group of finite rank, denoted by $\mathcal{A}(Γ,α,\nabla)$, from an (abstract) $(m,n)$-type GKM graph $(Γ,α,\nabla)$. Here, an $(m,n)$-type GKM …

Effective action for Kerr-Newman black hole found in twistor theory.

Let M be a closed simply connected n-manifold of positive sectional curvature. We determine its homeomorphism or homotopic type if M also admits an isometric elementary p-group action of large rank. Our main results are: There exists a constant p(n)>0 such that (1) If M^{2n} admits an effective isometric \Bbb Z_p^k-act…

We formulate and solve the analog of the universal Conformal Ward Identity for the stress-energy tensor on a compact Riemann surface of genus $g>1$, and present a rigorous invariant formulation of the chiral sector in the induced two-dimensional gravity on higher genus Riemann surfaces. Our construction of the action f…

New estimator improves off-policy evaluation for large action spaces.

The paper studies hyperbolic quotients of projection complexes and their actions.

In our book on cohomological methods in transformation groups the minimal Hirsch-Brown model was used to good effect. The construction there, however, was rather abstract. Here, for smooth compact connected Lie group actions on smooth closed manifolds, we give a much more explicit construction of the minmal Hirsch-Brow…

Let $M^n$, $n \in \{4,5,6\}$, be a compact, simply connected $n$-manifold which admits some Riemannian metric with non-negative curvature and an isometry group of maximal possible rank. Then any smooth, effective action on $M^n$ by a torus $T^{n-2}$ is equivariantly diffeomorphic to an isometric action on a normal biqu…

We classify the polar actions on the complex hyperbolic plane up to orbit equivalence. Apart from the trivial and transitive polar actions, there are five polar actions of cohomogeneity one and four polar actions of cohomogeneity two.

Reinforcement learning (RL) agents performing complex tasks must be able to remember observations and actions across sizable time intervals. This is especially true during the initial learning stages, when exploratory behaviour can increase the delay between specific actions and their effects. Many new or popular appro…

Study reduces complexity and uncertainty in human atrial cell models.

It has long been assumed that high dimensional continuous control problems cannot be solved effectively by discretizing individual dimensions of the action space due to the exponentially large number of bins over which policies would have to be learned. In this paper, we draw inspiration from the recent success of sequ…

A theorem of Delzant states that any symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ of dimension $2n$, equipped with an effective Hamiltonian action of the standard $n$-torus $\T^n = \R^{n}/2π\Z^n$, is a smooth projective toric variety completely determined (as a Hamiltonian $\T^n$-space) by the image of the moment map $φ:M\to\R^n$, a …
