The paper refines transformations of lattice diagrams and introduces dotted diagrams.

Paper proves link diagrams can be realized for some but not all types of links.

We construct a Kirby diagram of the rational homology ball used in "generalized rational blow-down" developed by Jongil Park. The diagram consists of a dotted circle and a torus knot. The link is simpler, but the parameters are a little complicate. Euclidean Algorithm is used three times in the construction and the pro…

The paper connects Kirby diagrams and 5-colored graphs to represent 4-manifolds.

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…

Extends odd Khovanov bracket to link cobordisms and proves functoriality up to sign.

A faster, more stable method for optimizing topological functions.

In this paper, we develop several related finite dimensional variational principles for discrete optimal transport (DOT), Minkowski type problems for convex polytopes and discrete Monge-Ampere equation (DMAE). A link between the discrete optimal transport, discrete Monge-Ampere equation and the power diagram in computa…

The study proves a theorem for alternating knots in handlebodies.

If $A$ is an abelian group and $φ$ is an integer, let $A(φ)$ be the subgroup of $A$ consisting of elements $a \in A$ such that $φ\cdot a=0$. We prove that if $D$ is a diagram of a classical link $L$ and $0=φ_0,φ_1,\dots,φ_{n-1}$ are the invariant factors of an adjusted Goeritz matrix of $D$, then the group $\mathcal{D}…

Study chord diagrams and knot theory, proving inevitable complexity in cohomology sequences.

For a virtual knot $K$ and an integer $r\geq 0$, the $r$-covering $K^{(r)}$ is defined by using the indices of chords on a Gauss diagram of $K$. In this paper, we prove that for any finite set of virtual knots $J_0,J_2,J_3,\dots,J_m$, there is a virtual knot $K$ such that $K^{(r)}=J_r$ $(r=0\mbox{ and }2\leq r\leq m)$,…

We create a framework for odd Khovanov homology in the spirit of Bar-Natan's construction for the ordinary Khovanov homology. Namely, we express the cube of resolutions of a link diagram as a diagram in a certain 2-category of chronological cobordisms and show that it is 2-commutative: the composition of 2-morphisms al…

Using a coordinate free characterization of hyperplanes intersection, we provide explicitly a set of local generators for a smooth affine distribution given by those smooth vector fields $X\in\mathfrak{X}(U)$ defined eventually on an open subset $U\subseteq M$ of a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, that verifies the …

Using quantum skew-Howe duality, we study the category $\operatorname{Rep}(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$ of tensor products of exterior powers of the standard representation of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$, and prove that it is equivalent to a category of ladder diagrams modulo one extra family of relations. We then construct a ca…

The paper examines deformations of simple dotted graphs made of circles.

Motivated by M. Scharlemann and A. Thompson's definition of thin position of 3-manifolds, we define the width of a handle decomposition a 4-manifold and introduce the notion of thin position of a compact smooth 4-manifold. We determine all manifolds having width equal to $\{1,\dots, 1\}$, and give a relation between th…

Formula derived for spherical growth series of specific groups.

Approximating non-linear kernels using feature maps has gained a lot of interest in recent years due to applications in reducing training and testing times of SVM classifiers and other kernel based learning algorithms. We extend this line of work and present low distortion embeddings for dot product kernels into linear…

Estimates kernel eigenvalues for compositional dot-product kernels.

Revisits neural collaborative filtering vs. matrix factorization, showing dot product superiority.

In this paper, we study the topology of real analytic map-germs with isolated critical value $f: (\mathbb{R}^m,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^n,0)$, with $1 <n <m$. We compare the topology of $f$ with the topology of the compositions $π_i^* \circ f$, where $π_i^*: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ are the projections $(t_1, \dots…

Game theory applied to splitting surfaces of compact 2-manifolds.

Traditionally, multi-layer neural networks use dot product between the output vector of previous layer and the incoming weight vector as the input to activation function. The result of dot product is unbounded, thus increases the risk of large variance. Large variance of neuron makes the model sensitive to the change o…

Study on the topology of tensorial bodies, showing they are homeomorphic to a product space.

Suppose that $θ_1,θ_2,\dots,θ_n$ are positive numbers and $n\ge 3$. Does there exist a sphere with a spherical metric with $n$ conical singularities of angles $2πθ_1,2πθ_2,\dots,2πθ_n$? A sufficient condition was obtained by Gabriele Mondello and Dmitri Panov (arXiv:1505.01994). We show that it is also necessary when w…

For $g\geq1$ denote by $F_{2g}=\langle x_1, y_1,\dots,x_g,y_g\rangle$ the free group on $2g$ generators and by $B_g=[x_1,y_1]\dots[x_g,y_g]$. For $l,c\geq 1$ and elements $w_1,\dots,w_l\in F_{2g}$ we study orientable quadratic equations of the form $[u_1,v_1]\dots[u_h,v_h]=(B_g^{w_1})^c(B_g^{w_2})^c\dots(B_g^{w_l})^c$ …

Let $E_1,\dots ,E_k$ and $E$ be natural vector bundles defined over the category $\Cal Mf_m^+$ of smooth oriented $m$--dimensional manifolds and orientation preserving local diffeomorphisms, with $m\geq 2$. Let $M$ be an object of $\Cal Mf_m^+$ which is connected. We give a complete classification of all separately con…

We study a geometry associated with rank 3 distributions in dimension 8, whose symbol algebra is constant and has a simple Lie algebra sp(3,R) as Tanaka prolongation. We restrict our considerations to only those distributions that are defined in terms of a systems of ODEs of the form $\dot{z}_{ij}=\frac{\partial^2 f(\d…

Let $G$ be a countable group that splits as a free product of groups of the form $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F_N$, where $F_N$ is a finitely generated free group. We identify the closure of the outer space $P\mathcal{O}(G,\{G_1,\dots,G_k\})$ for the axes topology with the space of projective minimal, \emph{very small} …

The paper explores equivariant means on topological spaces.

Pulli kolam is a ubiquitous art form in south India. It involves drawing a line looped around a collection of dots (pullis) place on a plane such that three mandatory rules are followed: all line orbits should be closed, all dots are encircled and no two lines can overlap over a finite length. The mathematical foundati…

Let ${\mathcal S}_m$ be the set of all $m\times m$ density matrices (Hermitian positively semi-definite matrices of unit trace). Consider a problem of estimation of an unknown density matrix $ρ\in {\mathcal S}_m$ based on outcomes of $n$ measurements of observables $X_1,\dots, X_n\in {\mathbb H}_m$ (${\mathbb H}_m$ bei…

We show how to use Bar-Natan's `divide and conquer' approach to computations to efficiently compute the universal sl(2) dotted foam cohomology groups, even for big knots and links. We also describe a purely topological version of the sl(2) foam theory, in the sense that no dots are needed on foams.

Polyhedral surfaces can be broken down into parallelograms.

We consider a symmetric multi-players zero-sum game with two strategic variables. There are $n$ players, $n\geq 3$. Each player is denoted by $i$. Two strategic variables are $t_i$ and $s_i$, $i\in \{1, \dots, n\}$. They are related by invertible functions. Using the minimax theorem by \cite{sion} we will show that Nas…

Let $S$ be a closed Riemann surface of genus $g(\geqq 2)$ and set $\dot{S}=S \setminus \{\hat{z}_0 \}$. Then we have the composed map $\varphi\circ r$ of a map $r: T(S) \times U \rightarrow F(S)$ and the Bers isomorphism $\varphi: F(S) \rightarrow T(\dot{S})$, where $F(S)$ is the Bers fiber space of $S$, $T(X)$ is the …

In this article we give a criterion for the existence of a metric of curvature $1$ on a $2$-sphere with $n$ conical singularities of prescribed angles $2π\vartheta_1,\dots,2π\vartheta_n$ and non-coaxial holonomy. Such a necessary and sufficient condition is expressed in terms of linear inequalities in $\vartheta_1,\dot…
