Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting isometrically on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with nonempty fixed point set $M^G$. We say that $M$ is fixed-point homogeneous if $G$ acts transitively on a normal sphere to some component of $M^G$. Fixed-point homogeneous manifolds with positive sectional curvature have been c…

Training neural networks is hard in fixed dimensions.

In this paper, we study a circle action on a compact oriented manifold with a discrete fixed point set. The fixed point data consists of the weights of the $S^1$-representations at the fixed points. We prove various results and properties of the action, in terms of the fixed point data. We show that the manifold can be…

We show that $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees and alpha-invariants bounded from below form a bounded family. As a corollary, K-semistable $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties of fixed dimension with anti-canonical degrees bounded from below form a bounded family.

New method produces reflections with nonseparating fixed points.

A faster method for estimating effects in large data using fixed-point trees.

A finite nonabelian simple group does not admit a free action on a homology sphere, and the only finite simple group which acts on a homology sphere with at most 0-dimensional fixed point sets ("pseudofree action") is the alternating group A_5 acting on the 2-sphere. Our first main theorem is the finiteness result that…

We prove finiteness of hyperkaehler Lagrangian fibrations in any fixed dimension with fixed Fujiki constant and discriminant of the Beauville-Bogomolov-Fujiki lattice, up to deformation. We also prove finiteness of hyperkähler Lagrangian fibrations with an ample line bundle of a given degree on the general fiber of the…

The study restricts matrix group actions on CAT(0) spaces and uniquely arcwise connected spaces, proving fixed points are inevitable.

We define a generalization of the fixed point set, called the bounded fixed set, for a group acting by isometries on a metric space. An analogue of the P. A. Smith theorem is proved for metric spaces of finite asymptotic dimension, which relates the coarse homology of the bounded fixed set to the coarse homology of the…

We show that if a holomorphic $n$ dimensional compact torus action on a compact connected complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ has a fixed point then the manifold is equivariantly biholomorphic to a smooth toric variety.

New insights into why neural networks can overfit without interpolating data.

Using quaternionic Feix--Kaledin construction we provide a local classification of quaternion-Kähler metrics with a rotating $S^1$-symmetry with the fixed point set submanifold $S$ of maximal possible dimension. For any Kähler manifold $S$ equipped with a line bundle with a unitary connection of curvature proportional …

In Statistical Learning, the Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) dimension is an important combinatorial property of classifiers. To our knowledge, no theoretical results yet exist for the VC dimension of edited nearest-neighbour (1NN) classifiers with reference set of fixed size. Related theoretical results are scattered in the …

We investigate the secant dimensions and the identifiablity of flag varieties parametrizing flag of sub vector spaces of a fixed vector space. We give numerical conditions ensuring that secant varieties of flag varieties have the expected dimension, and that a general point on these secant varieties is identifiable.

Graphs on surfaces have a 2-dimensional large scale structure.

Whenever the mapping class group of a closed orientable surface of genus g acts by semisimple isometries on a complete CAT(0) space of dimension less than g it fixes a point.

We give a criterion for group elements to have fixed points with respect to a semi-simple action on a complete CAT(0) space of finite topological dimension. As an application, we show that Thompson's group T and various generalizations of Thompson's group V have global fixed points when they act semi-simply on finite-d…

Let $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$ denote the mapping class group of the closed orientable surface $S_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$. Given a finite subgroup $H$ of $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$, let $\mathrm{Fix}(H)$ denote the set of fixed points induced by the action of $H$ on the Teichmüller space $\mathrm{Teich}(S_g)$. When $H$ is cyclic with …

We associate to any Riemannian symmetric space (of finite or infinite dimension) a L$^*$-algebra, under the assumption that the curvature operator has a fixed sign. L$^*$-algebras are Lie algebras with a pleasant Hilbert space structure. The L$^*$-algebra that we construct is a complete local isomorphism invariant and …

We classify positively curved Alexandrov spaces of dimension 4 with an isometric circle action up to equivariant homeomorphism, subject to a certain additional condition on the infinitesimal geometry near fixed points which we conjecture is always satisfied. As a corollary, we also classify positively curved Riemannian…

Let the circle act effectively in a Hamiltonian fashion on a compact symplectic manifold $(M, ω)$. Assume that the fixed point set $M^{S^1}$ has exactly two components, $X$ and $Y$, and that $\dim(X) + \dim(Y) +2 = \dim(M)$. We first show that $X$, $Y$ and $M$ are simply connected. Then we show that, up to $S^1$-equiva…

Let $M$ be a closed connected spin manifold of dimension $2$ or $3$ with a fixed orientation and a fixed spin structure. We prove that for a generic Riemannian metric on $M$ the non-harmonic eigenspinors of the Dirac operator are nowhere zero. The proof is based on a transversality theorem and the unique continuation p…

A recent anomaly computation of Horava and Witten is proved and generalized in the form of two index theorems in odd dimensions. Theorem A is a fixed point formula for orientation-reversing involutions. Theorem B is an index theorem for manifolds with boundary using local boundary conditions. Both hold for families of …

Recent proofs of classical theorems in polynomial algebra and functional analysis are discussed, which use tools from the topology of real manifolds. Simpler proofs were discovered in the new century, of the Hilbert Nullstellensatz, and the Gelfand-Mazur Theorem. We give a related proof that an irreducible real polynom…

We introduce a notion of "effective dimension" of a statistical model based on the number of cubes of size $1/\sqrt{n}$ needed to cover the model space when endowed with the Fisher Information Matrix as metric, $n$ being the number of observations. The number of observations fixes a natural scale or resolution. The eff…

The standard P. A. Smith theory of p-group actions on spheres, disks, and euclidean spaces is extended to the case of p-group actions on tori (i.e., products of circles) and coupled with topological surgery theory to give a complete topological classification, valid in all dimensions, of the locally linear, orientation…
