48 results for correction terms

We derive a closed formula for the Heegaard Floer correction terms of lens spaces in terms of the classical Dedekind sum and its generalization, the Dedekind-Rademacher sum. Our proof relies on a reciprocity formula for the correction terms established by Ozsvath and Szabo. A consequence of our result is that the Casso…

We use Heegaard Floer homology with twisted coefficients to define numerical invariants for arbitrary closed 3-manifolds equipped torsion spinc^c structures, generalising the correction terms (or dd--invariants) defined by Ozsváth and Szabó for integer homology 3-spheres and, more generally, for 3-manifolds with stan…

In this small note we use results derived in Berestycki et al. to correct the celebrated formulae of Hagan et al. We derive explicitly the correct zero order term in the expansion of the implied volatility in time to maturity. The new term is consistent as β1β\to 1. Furthermore, numerical simulations show that it reduc…

We make use of the action of H1(Y)H_1(Y) in Heegaard Floer homology to generalize the Ozsváth-Szabó correction terms for 33-manifolds with standard HF\operatorname{HF}^\infty. We establish the basic properties of these invariants: conjugation invariance, behavior under orientation reversal, additivity, and spinc^c ratio…

Manolescu correction terms are numerical invariants of homology three-spheres arising from Pin(2)\mathrm{Pin}(2)-equivariant Seiberg-Witten theory that contain information about homology cobordism. We discuss several constraints on these invariants for homology spheres obtained by Dehn surgery on a knot in the three-sphere…

Let L be a nonunimodular definite lattice. Using a theorem of Elkies we show that whether L embeds in the standard definite lattice of the same rank is completely determined by a collection of lattice correction terms, one for each metabolizing subgroup of the discriminant group. As a topological application this gives…

We study the behavior of the signature of colored links [Flo05, CF08] under the splice operation. We extend the construction to colored links in integral homology spheres and show that the signature is almost additive, with a correction term independent of the links. We interpret this correction term as the signature o…

We propose and analyze an alternate approach to off-policy multi-step temporal difference learning, in which off-policy returns are corrected with the current Q-function in terms of rewards, rather than with the target policy in terms of transition probabilities. We prove that such approximate corrections are sufficien…

According to a formula by Gordon and Litherland, the signature of a knot K can be computed as the signature of a Goeritz matrix of K minus a suitable correction term, read off from the diagram of K. In this article, we consider the family of two bridge knots K(p/q) and compute the signature of their Goeritz matrices in…

We show that the four derivative terms in the effective action of three-dimensional N=8 Yang-Mills theory are determined by supersymmetry. These terms receive both perturbative and non-perturbative corrections. Using our technique for constraining the effective action, we are able to determine the exact form of the eig…

In this remark, we show how the monopole Frøyshov invariant, as well as the analogues of the Involutive Heegaard Floer correction terms d,d\underline{d},\overline{d}, are related to the Pin(2)\mathrm{Pin}(2)-equivariant Floer homology SWFHG\mathit{SWFH}^G_*. We show that the only interesting correction terms of a $\mathrm{Pin}…

We show that if the connected sum of two knots with coprime Alexander polynomials is doubly slice, then the Ozsváth-Szabó correction terms as smooth double sliceness obstructions vanish for both knots. Recently, Jeffrey Meier gave smoothly slice knots that are topologically doubly slice, but not smoothly doubly slice. …

The Gauss self-linking integral of an unframed knot is not a knot invariant, but it can be turned into an invariant by adding a correction term which requires adding extra structure to the knot.

Turaev showed that there is a well-defined map assigning to an oriented link L in the three-sphere a Spin structure t_0 on Sigma(L), the 2-fold cover of S^3 branched along L. We prove, generalizing results of Manolescu-Owens and Donald-Owens, that for an oriented quasi-alternating link L the signature of L equals minus…

Given an element in the first homology of a rational homology 3-sphere YY, one can consider the minimal rational genus of all knots in this homology class. This defines a function ΘΘ on H1(Y;Z)H_1(Y;\mathbb Z), which was introduced by Turaev as an analogue of Thurston norm. We will give a lower bound for this function usi…
