The study examines the asymptotic behavior of extremal length in Teichmüller space.

Sharp inequalities and extremizers for J functional on Kähler manifolds.

The paper introduces twins in Kähler and Sasaki geometry, generalizing known concepts.

The task of classifying X-ray data is a problem of both theoretical and clinical interest. Whilst supervised deep learning methods rely upon huge amounts of labelled data, the critical problem of achieving a good classification accuracy when an extremely small amount of labelled data is available has yet to be tackled.…

A method to identify important features without solving the full problem.

We determine the asymptotic behaviour of extremal length along arbitrary Teichmüller rays. This allows us to calculate the endpoint in the Gardiner-Masur boundary of any Teichmüller ray. We give a proof that this compactification is the same as the horofunction compactification. An important subset of the latter is the…

Rare Teichmüller disks converge to small limit sets.

A robust algorithm for non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is presented in this paper with the purpose of dealing with large-scale data, where the separability assumption is satisfied. In particular, we modify the Linear Programming (LP) algorithm of [9] by introducing a reduced set of constraints for exact NMF. In…

In the present paper we prove that, on a hyperkähler manifold, walls of the kähler cone and extremal rays of the Mori cone are determined by all divisors satisfying certain numerical conditions.

Early results in using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on x-rays to diagnose disease have been promising, but it has not yet been shown that models trained on x-rays from one hospital or one group of hospitals will work equally well at different hospitals. Before these tools are used for computer-aided diagnosis i…

We show that grafting any fixed hyperbolic surface defines a homeomorphism from the space of measured laminations to Teichmuller space, complementing a result of Scannell-Wolf on grafting by a fixed lamination. This result is used to study the relationship between the complex-analytic and geometric coordinate systems f…

For a given lattice, we establish an equivalence involving a closed zone of the corresponding Voronoi polytope, a lamina hyperplane of the corresponding Delaunay partition and a quadratic form of rank 1 being an extreme ray of the corresponding L-type domain.

We give explicit examples of pairs of one-ended, open 4-manifolds whose end-sums yield uncountably many manifolds with distinct proper homotopy types. This answers strongly in the affirmative a conjecture of Siebenmann regarding the nonuniqueness of end-sums. In addition to the construction of these examples, we provid…

Study of tangent bundle positivity on complex projective varieties.

The study classifies Fano varieties with specific pseudoindex.

We compute the class of the closure of the locus of canonical divisors in the projectivization of the Hodge bundle $\mathbb{P}\overline{\mathcal{H}}_g$ over $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_g$ which have a zero at a Weierstrass point. We also show that the strata of canonical and bicanonical divisors with a double zero span ext…

New asymmetric metric on Teichmüller space for surfaces.

Let $\mathcal{W}^{n}$ be the class of $C^{\infty }$ complete simply connected $n-$dimensional manifolds without conjugate points. The hyperbolic space as well as Euclidean space are good examples of such manifolds. Let $$ and let $A$ be a subset of $W$. This article aims at characterization and bu…

GraphXCOVID uses deep semi-supervised learning to identify COVID-19 from chest X-rays with minimal labels.

Study extends geodesic ray transform results to orientable surfaces.

Let (X,[ω]) be a compact Kaehler manifold with a fixed Kaehler class [ω]. Let K_ωbe the set of all Kaehler metrics on X whose Kaehler class equals [ω]. In this paper we investigate the critical points of the functional Q(g)= |v|_g T_0(X,g)^{1/2} for g \in K_ω, where v is a fixed nonzero vector of the determinant line λ…

In this note we propose to show that the Kähler-Ricci flow fits naturally within the context of the Minimal Model Program for projective varieties. In particular we show that the flow detects, in finite time, the contraction theorem of any extremal ray and we analyze the singularities of the metric in the case of divis…

Study shows non-polyhedral structure in moduli spaces for n≥8.

In this paper we study K-polystability of arbitrary (possibly non-projective) compact Kähler manifolds admitting holomorphic vector fields. As a main result, we show that existence of a constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) metric implies 'geodesic K-polystability', in a sense that is expected to be equivalent to K-p…

Ray-Singer torsion is a mathematical concept with applications in physics.

We show that any grafting ray in Teichmüller space is (strongly) asymptotic to some Teichmüller geodesic ray. As an intermediate step we introduce surfaces that arise as limits of these degenerating Riemann surfaces. Given a grafting ray, the proof involves a Teichmüller ray with a conformally equivalent limit, and bui…

The paper studies Sasakian geometry on sphere bundles, focusing on extremal metrics and cohomology.

Survey on broken ray transforms and open problems.

We reduce the broken ray transform on some Riemannian manifolds (with corners) to the geodesic ray transform on another manifold, which is obtained from the original one by reflection. We give examples of this idea and present injectivity results for the broken ray transform using corresponding earlier results for the …

The separability assumption (Donoho & Stodden, 2003; Arora et al., 2012) turns non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) into a tractable problem. Recently, a new class of provably-correct NMF algorithms have emerged under this assumption. In this paper, we reformulate the separable NMF problem as that of finding the ext…

We study rays and co-rays in the Wasserstein space $P_p(\mathcal{X})$ ($p > 1$) whose ambient space $\mathcal{X}$ is a complete, separable, non-compact, locally compact length space. We show that rays in the Wasserstein space can be represented as probability measures concentrated on the set of rays in the ambient spac…

Three disjoint rays in euclidean 3-space form Borromean rays provided their union is knotted, but the union of any two components is unknotted. We construct infinitely many Borromean rays, uncountably many of which are pairwise inequivalent. We obtain uncountably many Borromean hyperplanes.

Infinite clique of rays in plane minus Cantor set.

Study light ray transform in pseudo-Euclidean space, derive inversion formula, and prove stability.

Unique geodesics selected by energy minimization in Teichmüller space.

Computational knot theory and 3-manifold topology have seen significant breakthroughs in recent years, despite the fact that many key algorithms have complexity bounds that are exponential or greater. In this setting, experimentation is essential for understanding the limits of practicality, as well as for gauging the …

The article recovers tensor fields from partial data using weighted divergent ray transforms.

The ray graph is a Gromov hyperbolic graph on which the mapping class group of the plane minus a Cantor set acts by isometries. We give a description of the Gromov boundary of the ray graph in terms of cliques of long rays on the plane minus a Cantor set. As a consequence, we prove that the Gromov boundary of the ray g…

Regularity results for geodesic X-ray transform on nonsmooth manifolds

Local X-ray transform works well near boundaries in hyperbolic spaces.

Paper shows invertibility of tensor X-ray transform on certain manifolds.

New proofs of Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau theorem using geodesic rays.

We consider the broken ray transform on Riemann surfaces in the presence of an obstacle, following earlier work of Mukhometov. If the surface has nonpositive curvature and the obstacle is strictly convex, we show that a function is determined by its integrals over broken geodesic rays that reflect on the boundary of th…

Study proves uniqueness for ray transform on surfaces with obstacles.

Local invertibility of ray transforms on convex manifolds.

This article contains a detailed study, in the toric case, of the test configuration geodesic rays defined by Phong-Sturm. We show that the `Bergman approximations' of Phong-Sturm converge in C^1 to the geodesic ray and that the geodesic ray itself is C^{1,1} and no better. The \kahler metrics associated to the geodesi…

The natural topological, differentiable and geometrical structures on the space of light rays of a given spacetime are discussed. The relation between the causality properties of the original spacetime and the natural structures on the space of light rays are stressed. Finally, a symplectic geometrical approach to the …
