New decomposable solutions found in 11D supergravity.

Aitchison and Rubinstein constructed two knot complements that can be decomposed into two regular ideal dodecahedra. This paper shows that these knot complements are the only knot complements that decompose into n regular ideal dodecahedra, providing a partial solution to a conjecture of Neumann and Reid.

Segmentation maps of medical images annotated by medical experts contain rich spatial information. In this paper, we propose to decompose annotation maps to learn disentangled and richer feature transforms for segmentation problems in medical images. Our new scheme consists of two main stages: decompose and integrate. …

Half-flat SU(3)-structures are the natural initial values for Hitchin's evolution equations whose solutions define parallel G_2-structures. Together with the results of arXiv:0912.3486v1, the results of this article completely solve the existence problem of left-invariant half-flat SU(3)-structures on decomposable Lie …

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a statistical tool that decomposes an observed random vector into components that are as statistically independent as possible. ICA over finite fields is a special case of ICA, in which both the observations and the decomposed components take values over a finite alphabet. This p…

In this paper we analyze the tangential symmetries of Darboux integrable decomposable exterior differential systems. The decomposable systems generalize the notion of a hyperbolic exterior differential system and include the classic notion of Darboux integrability for first order systems and second order scalar equatio…

We study consistency of learning algorithms for a multi-class performance metric that is a non-decomposable function of the confusion matrix of a classifier and cannot be expressed as a sum of losses on individual data points; examples of such performance metrics include the macro F-measure popular in information retri…

We introduce in this paper normal twistor equations for differential forms and study their solutions, the so-called normal conformal Killing forms. The twistor equations arise naturally from the canonical normal Cartan connection of conformal geometry. Reductions of its holonomy are related to solutions of the normal t…

We analyse finite-time singularities of the Teichmüller harmonic map flow -- a natural gradient flow of the harmonic map energy -- and find a canonical way of flowing beyond them in order to construct global solutions in full generality. Moreover, we prove a no-loss-of-topology result at finite time, which completes th…

Independent component analysis (ICA) is a statistical method for transforming an observable multi-dimensional random vector into components that are as statistically independent as possible from each other. Usually the ICA framework assumes a model according to which the observations are generated (such as a linear tra…

We consider the Ricci flow equation for invariant metrics on compact and connected homogeneous spaces whose isotropy representation decomposes into two irreducible inequivalent summands. By studying the corresponding dynamical system, we completely describe the behaviour of the homogeneous Ricci flow on this kind of sp…

We introduce a new convex formulation for stable principal component pursuit (SPCP) to decompose noisy signals into low-rank and sparse representations. For numerical solutions of our SPCP formulation, we first develop a convex variational framework and then accelerate it with quasi-Newton methods. We show, via synthet…

Chia and Nakano (2009) introduced the concept of M-decomposability of probability densities in one-dimension. In this paper, we generalize M-decomposability to any dimension. We prove that all elliptical unimodal densities are M-undecomposable. We also derive an inequality to show that it is better to represent an M-de…

This description will provide us the tools to prove quasi-isometr…

In this paper we propose a method to obtain global explanations for trained black-box classifiers by sampling their decision function to learn alternative interpretable models. The envisaged approach provides a unified solution to approximate non-linear decision boundaries with simpler classifiers while retaining the o…

New manifold types defined on quotient spaces.

A Seifert surface F for a knot K is disk decomposable if there is a taut sutured manifold heirarchy for the complement of F, whose decomposing surfaces are all disks. It follows that F has minimal genus for the knot K, and has handlebody complement, i.e., F is free. We show that these necessary conditions for disk deco…

The classes of Monge-Ampère systems, decomposable and bi-decomposable Monge-Ampère systems, including equations for improper affine spheres and hypersurfaces of constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature are introduced. They are studied by the clear geometric setting of Lagrangian contact structures, based on the existence of …

Multi-task learning is a powerful method for solving multiple correlated tasks simultaneously. However, it is often impossible to find one single solution to optimize all the tasks, since different tasks might conflict with each other. Recently, a novel method is proposed to find one single Pareto optimal solution with…

The notion of a (stably) decomposable fiber bundle is introduced. In low dimensions, for torus fiber bundles over a circle the notion translates into a property of elements of the special linear group of integral matrices. We give a complete characterization of the stably decomposable torus fiber bundle of fiber-dimens…

We study some properties of decomposable exact Lagrangian cobordisms between Legendrian links in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with the standard contact structure. In particular, for any decomposable exact Lagrangian filling $L$ of a Legendrian link $K$, we may obtain a normal ruling of $K$ associated with $L$. We prove that the asso…

In the present paper we carry out a systematic study about the flow of a spherical curve by the mean curvature flow with density in a 3-dimensional rotationally symmetric space with density $(M^3_w,\:g_w,\:ξ)$ where the density $ξ$ decomposes as sum of a radial part $\varphi$ and an angular part $ψ$. We analyse how eit…

We show that if a cusped hyperbolic manifold is Platonic, i.e., can be decomposed into isometric Platonic solids, it can also be decomposed into geodesic ideal tetrahedra.

This survey paper contains an elementary exposition of Casson and Rivin's technique for finding the hyperbolic metric on a 3-manifold M with toroidal boundary.
