The paper strengthens a theorem on crossings under linear perturbations with Hausdorff measure estimates.

The study examines exceptional sets for radial limits of superharmonic functions on curved manifolds.

Study maximal antipodal sets in exceptional symmetric spaces.

We study a class of exceptional minimal surfaces in spheres for which all Hopf differentials are holomorphic. Extending results of Eschenburg and Tribuzy \cite{ET0}, we obtain a description of exceptional surfaces in terms of a set of absolute value type functions, the $a$-invariants, that determine the geometry of the…

This paper is based on a previous publication [29]. Our work extends exception mining and outlier detection to the case of object-relational data. Object-relational data represent a complex heterogeneous network [12], which comprises objects of different types, links among these objects, also of different types, and at…

A new quantum relation connects exceptional Lie algebras and knots.

The paper constructs a family of SKT metrics on the exceptional Lie group G2.

We study the existence of natural and projectively equivariant quantizations for differential operators acting between order 1 vector bundles over a smooth manifold M. To that aim, we make use of the Thomas-Whitehead approach of projective structures and construct a Casimir operator depending on a projective Cartan con…

One of the main obstacles regarding Barky Emery curvature on graphs is that the results require a global uniform lower curvature bounds where no exception sets are allowed. We overcome this obstacle by introducing the perpetual cutoff method. As applications, we prove gradient estimates only requiring curvature bounds …

We study the one-parameter family of twisted Kahler Taub-NUT metrics (discovered by Donaldson), along with two exceptional Taub-NUT-like instantons, and understand them to the extend that should be sufficient for blow-up and gluing arguments. In particular we parametrize their geodesics from the origin, determine curva…

Concerning the set of exceptional surgery slopes for a hyperbolic knot, Lackenby and Meyerhoff proved that the maximal cardinality is 10 and the maximal diameter is 8. Their proof is computer-aided in part, and both bounds are achieved simultaneously. In this note, it is observed that the diameter bound 8 implies the m…

It has been observed that most manifolds in the Callahan-Hildebrand-Weeks census of cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifolds are obtained by surgery on the minimally twisted 5-chain link. A full classification of the exceptional surgeries on the 5-chain link has recently been completed. In this article, we provide a complete cl…

Cayley's (ruled cubic) surface carries a three-parameter family of twisted cubics. We describe the contact of higher order and the dual contact of higher order for these curves and show that there are three exceptional cases.

In the quest for the mathematical formulation of M-theory, we consider three major open problems: a first-principles construction of the single (abelian) M5-brane Lagrangian density, the origin of the gauge field in heterotic M-theory, and the supersymmetric enhancement of exceptional M-geometry. By combining technique…

We find braid positive presentations for most L-space knots, except one, and explore related knot properties.

It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value of the parameter (corresponding to half-densities) the star product is symmetri…

We give a one parameter family of exceptional planar 5-webs. Each web is formed by four pencils of lines and by a foliation defined by the level curves of a function sn_k(x)sn_k(y) where sn_k denotes a Jacobi's elliptic function.

This paper deals with both complex dynamical systems and conformal iterated function systems. We study finitely generated expanding semigroups of rational maps with overlaps on the Riemann sphere. We show that if a $d$-parameter family of such semigroups satisfies the transversality condition, then for almost every par…

The paper connects Diophantine approximation to black hole behavior, proving blow-up conditions.

We study the regularity of exceptional actions of groups by $C^{1,α}$ diffeomorphisms on the circle, i.e. ones which admit exceptional minimal sets, and whose elements have first derivatives that are continuous with concave modulus of continuity $α$. Let $G$ be a finitely generated group admitting a $C^{1,α}$ action $ρ…

The paper optimizes exceptions in a statistical production system using machine learning.

Study geodesic trees and exceptional directions in FPP on hyperbolic groups.

We prove that the $TT$-gauge-fixed linearised Einstein operator is non-degenerate for Riemannian Kottler ("Schwarzschild-anti de Sitter") metrics with dimension- and topology-dependent ranges of mass parameter. We provide evidence that this remains true for all such metrics except the spherical ones with a critical mas…

Hexagonal norm double bubble problem solved with minimal configurations.

Gradient tree boosting is a prediction algorithm that sequentially produces a model in the form of linear combinations of decision trees, by solving an infinite-dimensional optimization problem. We combine gradient boosting and Nesterov's accelerated descent to design a new algorithm, which we call AGB (for Accelerated…

Branched covers between Riemann surfaces are associated with certain combinatorial data, and Hurwitz existence problem asks whether given data satisfying those combinatorial constraints can be realized by some branched cover. We connect recent development in spherical conic metrics to this old problem, and give a new m…

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the higher dimensional Reidemeister torsion for the graph manifolds obtained by exceptional surgeries along twist knots. We show that all irreducible SL(2;C)-representations of the graph manifold are induced by irreducible metabelian representations of the twist knot group. We al…

We present conformal structures in signature (3,2) for which the holonomy of the Fefferman-Graham ambient metric is equal to the non-compact exceptional Lie group G_{2(2)}. We write down the resulting 8-parameter family of G_{2(2)}-metrics in dimension seven explicitly in an appropriately chosen coordinate system on th…

We introduce a non-parametric method to recover physical probability distributions of asset returns based on their European option prices and some other sparse parametric information. Thus the main problem is similar to the one considered foir instance in the Recovery Theorem by Ross (2015), except that here we conside…

Classifies exceptional Legendrian realizations of Hopf link connected sums.

We show the existence and uniqueness of a one-parameter family of smooth complete $U(1)$-invariant gradient steady Ricci solitons on the total space of any complex line bundle over a Fano Kähler-Einstein base with first Chern class proportional to that of the base. These solitons are non-Kähler except on the total spac…

We present a systematic calculation of the volumes of compact manifolds which appear in physics: spheres, projective spaces, group manifolds and generalized flag manifolds. In each case we state what we believe is the most natural scale or normalization of the manifold, that is, the generalization of the unit radius co…

We give an explicit classification of maximal antipodal sets in any irreducible compact symmetric space except for spin groups and half spin groups, and some quotient symmetric spaces associated to them.

New robust algorithms improve learning with feature feedback.

Study glues 2D hyperbolic manifolds, deriving mass formulas.

The intrinsic geometry of the Kerr ergosurface on constant Boyer-Lindquist (BL), Kerr, and Doran time slices is characterized. Unlike the BL slice, which had been previously studied, the other slices (i) do not have conical singularities at the poles (except the Doran slice in the extremal limit), (ii) have finite pola…

A closed hyperbolic 3-manifold is exceptional if its shortest geodesic does not have an embedded tube of radius $\ln(3)/2$. D. Gabai, R. Meyerhoff and N. Thurston identified seven families of exceptional manifolds in their proof of the homotopy rigidity theorem. They identified the hyperbolic manifold known as Vol3 in …

Combining M-algebra and hyperbolic involutory algebra extends exceptional tangent spaces to 11 dimensions.

Proves a theorem for Assouad dimension with applications to distance sets and radial projections.

We consider in this paper the minimally twisted chain link with 5 components in the 3-sphere, and we analyze the Dehn surgeries on it, namely the Dehn fillings on its exterior M5. The 3-manifold M5 is a nicely symmetric hyperbolic one, filling which one gets a wealth of hyperbolic 3-manifolds having 4 or fewer (includi…

The paper constructs gravitational instantons with unique collapse patterns.

We give a complete classification of exceptional surgeries on hyperbolic alternating knots in the 3-sphere. As an appendix, we also show that the Montesinos knots M (-1/2, 2/5, 1/(2q + 1)) with q at least 5 have no non-trivial exceptional surgeries. This gives the final step in a complete classification of exceptional …

Study of exceptional algebroids in relation to type IIB superstrings.

The study bounds exceptional surgeries for hyperbolic knots.

This paper concerns the truly or purely cosmetic surgery conjecture. We give a survey on exceptional surgeries and cosmetic surgeries. We prove that the slope of an exceptional truly cosmetic surgery on a hyperbolic knot in $S^3$ must be $\pm 1$ and the surgery must be toroidal but not Seifert fibred. As consequence we…
