Study of lengths of cycles in large genus random maps converging to Poisson process.

Algorithms compute length spectra of torus graphs efficiently.

For strong exact magnetic fields the action functional (i.e., the length plus the linear magnetic term) is not bounded from below on the space of closed contractible curves and the lower estimates for critical levels are derived by using the principle of throwing out cycles. It is proved that for almost every energy le…

Let $\mathfrak{S}(\underline{s},w)$ be the graph whose vertices are all subexpressions with target $w$ of a fixed expression $\underline{s}$ in generators of a Coxeter group and edges are the pairs of subexpressions with Hamming distance 2. We prove that $\mathfrak{S}(\underline{s},w)$ is connected and its cycle space …

Dual decomposition provides a tractable framework for designing algorithms for finding the most probable (MAP) configuration in graphical models. However, for many real-world inference problems, the typical decomposition has a large integrality gap, due to frustrated cycles. One way to tighten the relaxation is to intr…

Study improves queue length estimation from connected vehicles by filtering parameters.

A $triangulation$ is an embedding of a graph on surfaces where every face has length three. In this article, we show the existence of contractible Hamiltonian cycle in triangulated maps of which minimum degree is four.

The determinants of the velocity of money have been examined based on life-cycle hypothesis. The velocity of money can be expressed by reciprocal of the average value of holding time which is defined as interval between participating exchanges for one unit of money. This expression indicates that the velocity is govern…

We consider the space of all representations of the commutator subgroup of a knot group into a finite abelian group Σ, together with a shift map σ_x. This is a finite dynamical system, introduced by D.Silver and S. Williams. We describe the lengths of its cycles in terms of the roots of the Alexander polynomial of the …

I sketch a program for a microeconomic theory of the main component of the business cycle as a recurring disequilibrium, driven by incompleteness of the financial market and by information asymmetries between borrowers and lenders. This proposal seeks to incorporate five distinct but connected processes that have been …

EBM life cycle project improves MCMC for image generation, defense, and density modeling.

Service-induced congestion in memory-constrained LLM serving

We prove upper bounds for the number of critical points in semistable symplectic Lefschetz fibrations. We also obtain a new lower bound for the number of nonseparting vanishing cycles in Lefschetz pencils, and reprove the known lower bounds for the commutator lengths of Dehn twists.

Following \cite{citeSavelyevVirtualMorsetheoryon$Omega$Ham$(Momega)$.}, we develop here a connection between Morse theory for the (positive) Hofer length functional $L: Ω\text {Ham}(M, ω) \to \mathbb{R}$, with Gromov-Witten/Floer theory, for monotone symplectic manifolds $(M, ω)$. This gives some immediate restrictio…

We consider the space of all representations of the commutator subgroup of a knot group into Z/p, p is prime. As proven by D. Silver and S. Williams, this space can be completely described by a finite oriented graph. We describe the lengths of cycles in this graph.

We prove that given a three manifold with an arbitrary metric $(M^3, g)$ of positive Ricci curvature, there exists a sweepout of $M$ by surfaces of genus $\leq 3$ and areas bounded by $C vol(M^3, g)^{2/3}$. We use this result to construct a sweepout of $M$ by 1-cycles of length at most $C vol(M^3, g)^{1/3}$. The sweepo…

In [J.Birman, V.Gebhardt, J.Gonzalez-Meneses, Conjugacy in Garside groups I: cyclings, powers and rigidity] authors asked: (open question 2) is the size of USS of a rigid pseudo-Anosov braid is bounded above by some polynomial in the number of strands and the braid length? We answer this question in the negative.

We introduce the notion of a conjugation-free geometric presentation for a fundamental group of a line arrangement's complement, and we show that the fundamental groups of the following family of arrangements have a conjugation-free geometric presentation: A real arrangement L, whose graph of multiple points is a union…

Brooks and Makover introduced an approach to studying the global geometric quantities (in particular, the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian, injectivity radius and diameter) of a ``typical'' compact Riemann surface of large genus based on compactifying finite-area Riemann surfaces associated with random cubic graphs; b…

This study optimizes cycle representatives in persistent homology using linear programming.

The fundamental group of the complement of a plane curve is a very important topological invariant. In particular, it is interesting to find out whether this group is determined by the combinatorics of the curve or not, and whether it is a direct sum of free groups and a free abelian group, or it has a conjugation-free…

Given a 2-dimensional surface M and a constant C we construct a Riemannian metric g, so that diameter diam(M,g)=1 and every 1-cycle dividing M into two regions of equal area has length >C. It follows that there exists no universal inequality bounding 1-width of M in terms of its diameter. This answers a question of Ste…

New method uses iterated integrals to bridge geometric and homotopy information.

The cycling operation is a special kind of conjugation that can be applied to elements in Artin's braid groups, in order to reduce their length. It is a key ingredient of the usual solutions to the conjugacy problem in braid groups. In their seminal paper on braid-cryptography, Ko, Lee et al. proposed the {\it cycling …

The paper examines how insurers manage risks and liquidity in a dynamic market.

Symmetric TSP is structurally equivalent to a constrained Group Steiner Tree Problem.

The topology of a power grid affects its dynamic operation and settlement in the electricity market. Real-time topology identification can enable faster control action following an emergency scenario like failure of a line. This article discusses a graphical model framework for topology estimation in bulk power grids (…

Algorithmic solutions to the conjugacy problem in the braid groups B_n were given by Elrifai-Morton in 1994 and by the authors in 1998. Both solutions yield two conjugacy class invariants which are known as `inf' and `sup'. A problem which was left unsolved in both papers was the number m of times one must `cycle' (res…

In this study we model the warranty claims process and evaluate the warranty servicing costs under non-renewing and renewing free repair warranties. We assume that the repair time for rectifying the claims is non-zero and the repair cost is a function of the length of the repair time. To accommodate the ageing of the p…

We study the topology of the tropical moduli space parametrizing stable tropical curves of genus g with n marked points in which the bounded edges have total length 1, and prove that it is highly connected. Using the identification of this space with the dual complex of the boundary in the moduli space of stable algebr…

New invariant links graph structure to tropical curve properties.

Subsurface projection has become indispensable in studying the geometry of the mapping class group and the curve complex of a surface. When the subsurface is an annulus, this projection is sometimes called relative twisting. We give two alternate versions of relative twisting for the outer automorphism group of a free …

We introduce a new series $R_k$, $k=2,3,4,\dots$, of integer valued weight systems. The value of the weight system $R_k$ on a chord diagram is a signed number of cycles of even length $2k$ in the intersection graph of the diagram. We show that this value depends on the intersection graph only. We check that for small o…

Odd crossing numbers and even rotation numbers for cycles in plane immersions.

We introduce a notion of natural orderings of elements of finite connected quandles of order $n$. When the elements of such a quandle $Q$ are already ordered naturally, any automophism on $Q$ is a natural ordering. Although there are many natural orderings, the operation tables for such orderings coincide when the perm…

This work introduces novel methods to identify and compare cycles across topological objects.

This article introduces proximal planar vortex 1-cycles, resembling the structure of vortex atoms introduced by William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) in 1867 and recent work on the proximity of sets that overlap either spatially or descriptively. Vortex cycles resemble Thomson's model of a vortex atom, inspired by P.G. Tait's …
