Simplifies Wulff theorem for crystalline shapes using Minkowski Theory.

We formulate the laws governing the dynamics of a crystalline solid in which a continuous distribution of dislocations is present. Our formulation is based on new differential geometric concepts, which in particular relate to Lie groups. We then consider the static case, which describes crystalline bodies in equilibriu…

In this paper, we investigate simultaneous properties of a convex integrand $γ$ and its dual $δ$. The main results are the following three. (1) For a $C^\infty$ convex integrand $γ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$, its dual convex integrand $δ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is of class $C^\infty$ if and only if $γ$ is a strictly convex in…

In this paper, the following three are shown. (1) For a $C^\infty$ convex integrand $γ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$, its dual convex integrand $δ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is of class $C^\infty$. (2) For a stable convex integrand $γ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$, its dual convex integrand $δ: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is stable. (3) Let $γ: S…

Kernel-based quadrature rules are becoming important in machine learning and statistics, as they achieve super-$\sqrt{n}$ convergence rates in numerical integration, and thus provide alternatives to Monte Carlo integration in challenging settings where integrands are expensive to evaluate or where integrands are high d…

We prove short-time existence of φ-regular solutions to the anisotropic and crystalline curvature flow of immersed planar curves.

Quantum speedup for Monte Carlo integration reduces integrand calls.

In this paper, it is shown that the set consisting of stable convex integrands $S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is open and dense in the set consisting of $C^\infty$ convex integrands with respect to Whitney $C^\infty$ topology. Moreover, an application of the proof of this result is also shown.

Purely real space versions of the differential equations describing the kinematics of a dislocated crystalline medium are considered. The differential geometric structures associated with them are revealed.

Ambitwistor string matches superstring chiral integrands at zero tension.

In anomaly-free quantum field theories the integrand in the bosonic functional integral--the exponential of the effective action after integrating out fermions--is often defined only up to a phase without an additional choice. We term this choice ``setting the quantum integrand''. In the low-energy approximation to M-t…

The study solves the isoperimetric problem for Heisenberg group norms.

In this paper, it is shown that a Wulff shape is strictly convex if and only if its convex integrand is of class $C^1$. Moreover, applications of this result are given.

The Hopf fibration has inspired any number of geometric structures in physical systems, in particular in chiral liquid crystalline materials. Because the Hopf fibration lives on the three sphere, $\mathbb{S}^3$, some method of projection or distortion must be employed to realize textures in flat space. Here, we explore…

Given a distribution of defects on a structured surface, such as those represented by 2-dimensional crystalline materials, liquid crystalline surfaces, and thin sandwiched shells, what is the resulting stress field and the deformed shape? Motivated by this concern, we first classify, and quantify, the translational, ro…

Novel approach for estimating conditional expectations using Bayesian quadrature.

In this paper we consider the evolution of a graph-like hypersurface by anisotropic mean curvature flow, under some restrictions on the anisotropic area integrand. We find interior estimates (in both time and space) on the gradient of such hypersurfaces, depending only on the height of the graph and the anisotropic are…

The goal of the present paper is to investigate the algebraic structure of global conformal invariants of submanifolds. These are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars of the tangent and normal bundle. A famous example of a global conformal invariant is the Willmore energy of a surface. In …

Counterexample shows Ito integrand needn't be locally square integrable.

This paper forms part of a larger work where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of "global conformal invariants"; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars. The conjecture asserts that the integrand of any such integral can be expressed as a…

This work improves Fourier pricing for multi-asset options using RQMC with domain transformation.

Euler calculus is based on integrating simple functions with respect to the Euler characteristic. This paper makes the case for extending Euler calculus to continuous integrands by integrating with respect to (Gaussian) curvature. This requires a metric but is nevertheless defined within any O-minimal theory. It satisf…

General area-preserving motion of polygonal curves is formulated as a system of ODEs. Solution polygonal curves belong to a prescribed polygonal class, which is similar to the admissible class used in the crystalline curvature flow. The ODEs are discretized implicitly in time keeping a given constant area speed while s…

ShotgunCSP predicts crystal structures using machine learning, achieving high accuracy with minimal computation.

This paper is devoted to the problem of choosing the most suitable model of a geometrical system for describing the real crystallographic space. It has been shown that all 230 crystallographic groups used to describe the crystalline structures in a Euclidean space can be presented by elliptic motions in the closed spac…

We propose a Bayesian optimization algorithm for objective functions that are sums or integrals of expensive-to-evaluate functions, allowing noisy evaluations. These objective functions arise in multi-task Bayesian optimization for tuning machine learning hyperparameters, optimization via simulation, and sequential des…

FlowMM models stable crystal structures efficiently.

This paper gives several simple constructions of the pathwise Ito integral $\int_0^tφdω$ for an integrand $φ$ and a price path $ω$ as integrator, with $φ$ and $ω$ satisfying various topological and analytical conditions. The definitions are purely pathwise in that neither $φ$ nor $ω$ are assumed to be paths of stochast…

On a compact Kahler manifold, one can define global invariants by integrating local invariants of the metric. Assume that a global invariant thus obtained depends only on the Kahler class. Then we show that the integrand can be decomposed into a Chern polynomial (the integrand of a Chern number) and divergences of one …

We formulate a family of spin Topological Quantum Filed Theories (spin-TQFTs) as fermionic generalization of bosonic Dijkgraaf-Witten TQFTs. They are obtained by gauging $G$-equivariant invertible spin-TQFTs, or, in physics language, gauging the interacting fermionic Symmetry Protected Topological states (SPTs) with a …

This paper presents a convergence analysis of kernel-based quadrature rules in misspecified settings, focusing on deterministic quadrature in Sobolev spaces. In particular, we deal with misspecified settings where a test integrand is less smooth than a Sobolev RKHS based on which a quadrature rule is constructed. We pr…

In 1963, K.P.Grotemeyer proved an interesting variant of the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. Let M be an oriented closed surface in the Euclidean space R^3 with Euler characteristic χ(M), Gauss curvature G and unit normal vector field n. Grotemeyer's identity replaces the Gauss-Bonnet integrand G by the normal moment <a,n>^2G, w…

Inspired by Katz-Mazur theorem on crystalline cohomology and by Eskin-Kontsevich-Zorich's numerical experiments, we conjecture that the polygon of Lyapunov spectrum lies above (or on) the Harder-Narasimhan polygon of the Hodge bundle over any Teichmüller curve. We also discuss the connections between the two polygons a…

Integration over non-negative integrands is a central problem in machine learning (e.g. for model averaging, (hyper-)parameter marginalisation, and computing posterior predictive distributions). Bayesian Quadrature is a probabilistic numerical integration technique that performs promisingly when compared to traditional…

The Gauss-Bonnet curvature of order $2k$ is a generalization to higher dimensions of the Gauss-Bonnet integrand in dimension $2k$, as the usual scalar curvature generalizes the two dimensional Gauss-Bonnet integrand. In this paper, we evaluate the first variation of the integrals of these curvatures seen as functionals…
