Study concordance of decompositions from defining sequences in 3-sphere.

Seidel-Smith and Hendricks used equivariant Floer cohomology to define some spectral sequences from symplectic Khovanov homology and Heegaard Floer homology. These spectral sequences give rise to Smith-type inequalities. Similar-looking spectral sequences have been defined by Lee, Bar-Natan, Ozsváth-Szabó, Lipshitz-Tre…

Grid homology theory for spatial graphs extends skein sequence.

In this paper we prove a compactness theorem for a sequence of harmonic maps which are defined on a converging sequence of Riemannian manifolds.

Szabó recently introduced a combinatorially-defined spectral sequence in Khovanov homology. After reviewing its construction and explaining our methodology for computing it, we present results of computations of the spectral sequence. Based on these computations, we make a number of conjectures concerning the structure…

Video sequences contain rich dynamic patterns, such as dynamic texture patterns that exhibit stationarity in the temporal domain, and action patterns that are non-stationary in either spatial or temporal domain. We show that a spatial-temporal generative ConvNet can be used to model and synthesize dynamic patterns. The…

Given a fibered link, consider the characteristic polynomial of the monodromy restricted to first homology. This generalizes the notion of the Alexander polynomial of a knot. We define a construction, called iterated plumbing, to create a sequence of fibered links from a given one. The resulting sequence of characteris…

Signed heights of knotoids are defined and studied.

The multivariate Alexander module of a link L has several subsets that admit quandle operations defined using the module operations. One of them, the fundamental multivariate Alexander quandle, determines the link module sequence of L.

We give the first explicit computations of rational homotopy groups of spaces of "long knots" in Euclidean spaces. We define a spectral sequence which converges to these rational homotopy groups whose E^1 term is defined in terms of braid Lie algebras. For odd k we establish a vanishing line for this spectral sequence,…

The paper defines normal forms for rational 3-tangles and shows a sequence of moves to transform one form to another.

In this note, given a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$, we define the Donaldson-Futaki invariant for a sequence of test configurations for $(X,L)$ with exponents tending to infinity. This then allows us to define a strong version of K-stability or K-semistability for $(X,L)$. In particular, $(X,L)$ will be shown to…

Calculates knot $X$-torsion order using spectral sequences.

We consider sequences of open Riemannian manifolds with boundary that have no regularity conditions on the boundary. To define a reasonable notion of a limit of such a sequence, we examine "$δ$ inner regions" which avoid the boundary by a distance $δ$. We prove Gromov-Hausdorff compactness theorems for sequences of the…

Phylogenetic tree reconstruction is traditionally based on multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) and heavily depends on the validity of this information bottleneck. With increasing sequence divergence, the quality of MSAs decays quickly. Alignment-free methods, on the other hand, are based on abstract string comparisons …

We construct sequences of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes whose dilatations behave asymptotically like the inverse of the Euler characteristic of the surface they are defined on. These sequences are used to show that if the genus, g, and punctures, n, of a surface are related by a rational ray g=rn then the minimal dilat…

The paper examines conditions for compactness in sequences of warped product length spaces.

Attention is an operation that selects some largest element from some set, where the notion of largest is defined elsewhere. Applying this operation to sequence to sequence mapping results in significant improvements to the task at hand. In this paper we provide the mathematical definition of attention and examine its …

Study connects Gaussian processes and regularization for sequence-function mappings.

Many machine learning tasks can be expressed as the transformation---or \emph{transduction}---of input sequences into output sequences: speech recognition, machine translation, protein secondary structure prediction and text-to-speech to name but a few. One of the key challenges in sequence transduction is learning to …

New link homology theories for $\mathbb{RP}^3$ yield distinct invariants.

We develop a method of calculation for the symplectic Floer homology of composite knots. The symplectic Floer homology of knots defined in \cite{li} naturally admits an integer graded lifting, and it formulates a filtration and induced spectral sequence. Such a spectral sequence converges to the symplectic homology of …

In their recent preprint, Baldwin, Ozsváth and Szabó defined a twisted version (with coefficients in a Novikov ring) of a spectral sequence, previously defined by Ozsváth and Szabó, from Khovanov homology to Heegaard-Floer homology of the branched double cover along a link. In their preprint, they give a combinatorial …

Benchmark for math reasoning models from human proofs.

We define and study a family of link invariants $\mathit{HFK}_{n}(L)$. Although these homology theories are defined using holomorphic disc counts, they share many properties with $sl_{n}$ homology. Using these theories, we give a framework that generalizes the conjectured spectral sequence from Khovanov homology to $δ$…

The Khovanov homology of a link in $S^3$ and the Heegaard Floer homology of its branched double cover are related through a spectral sequence constructed by Ozsváth and Szabó. This spectral sequence has topological applications but is difficult to compute. We build an isomorphic spectral sequence whose underlying filte…

The paper establishes conditions for optimal sampling configurations on complex manifolds.

A Semi-Hidden Markov Model (SHMM) for bursty error channels is defined by a state transition probability matrix $A$, a prior probability vector $Π$, and the state dependent output symbol error probability matrix $B$. Several processes are utilized for estimating $A$, $Π$ and $B$ from a given empirically obtained or sim…

We define two transforms between non-conformal harmonic maps from a surface into the 3-sphere. With these transforms one can construct, from one such harmonic map, a sequence of harmonic maps. We show that there is a correspondence between non-conformal harmonic maps into the 3-sphere, $H$-surfaces in Euclidean 3-space…

Traditionally, the automatic recognition of human activities is performed with supervised learning algorithms on limited sets of specific activities. This work proposes to recognize recurrent activity patterns, called routines, instead of precisely defined activities. The modeling of routines is defined as a metric lea…

Data privacy is an important issue for "machine learning as a service" providers. We focus on the problem of membership inference attacks: given a data sample and black-box access to a model's API, determine whether the sample existed in the model's training data. Our contribution is an investigation of this problem in…

A reductive structure is associated here with Lagrangian canonically defined conserved quantities on gauge-natural bundles. Parametrized transformations defined by the gauge-natural lift of infinitesimal principal automorphisms induce a variational sequence such that the generalized Jacobi morphism is naturally self-ad…

In a recent paper, Darvas-Rubinstein proved a convergence result for the Kahler-Ricci iteration, which is a sequence of recursively defined complex Monge-Ampere equations. We introduce the Monge-Ampere iteration to be an analogous, but more general, sequence of recursively defined real Monge-Ampere second boundary valu…

The paper constructs non-convergent solutions to Vafa-Witten equations with specific harmonic 2-form limits.

For a link in a thickened annulus $A \times I$, we define a $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}$ filtration on Sarkar-Seed-Szabó's perturbation of the geometric spectral sequence. The filtered chain homotopy type is an invariant of the isotopy class of the annular link. From this, we define a two-dimensiona…

Defines new versions of distributional topological complexity for spaces.

Let $(M,g)$ an open and oriented riemannian manifold. The aim of this paper is to study some properties of the two following sequences of $L^2$ cohomology groups: $H^i_{2,m\rightarrow M}(M,g)$ defined as the image $\im(H^i_{2,min}(M,g)\rightarrow H^i_{2,max}(M,g))$ and $\bar{H}^i_{2,m\rightarrow M}(M,g)$ defined as $\i…

Defines cobordism maps connecting Khovanov and instanton homologies.

This paper studies stability of the exponential utility maximization when there are small variations on agent's utility function. Two settings are considered. First, in a general semimartingale model where random endowments are present, a sequence of utilities defined on R converges to the exponential utility. Under a …

Partial AHS-structures extend G-structures and Cartan geometries to manifolds with involutive distributions.

We introduce and study a new spectral sequence associated with a Poisson group action on a Poisson manifold and an equivariant momentum mapping. This spectral sequence is a Poisson analog of the Leray spectral sequence of a fibration. The spectral sequence converges to the Poisson cohomology of the manifold and has the…
