We equip a knot $K$ with a set of colored bonds, that is, colored intervals properly embedded into $\mathbb{R}^3 \setminus K$. Such a construction can be viewed as a structure that topologically models a closed protein chain including any type of bridges connecting the backbone residues. We introduce an invariant of su…

We provide complete source code for building a fundamental industry classification based on publically available and freely downloadable data. We compare various fundamental industry classifications by running a horserace of short-horizon trading signals (alphas) utilizing open source heterotic risk models (https://ssr…

Ends and cohomology theory for noncompact spaces.

Lie-Rinehart algebras over $C^\infty$-rings defined and studied.

We show that every good boundary link with a pair of derivative links on a Seifert surface satisfying a homotopically trivial plus assumption is freely slice. This subsumes all previously known methods for freely slicing good boundary links with two or more components, and provides new freely slice links.

Study shows free group complexes are Cohen-Macaulay of dimension n-1.

Proves freely 2-periodic knots have two canonical components in their character variety.

Establishes a rank inequality between knot Floer homologies of freely 2-periodic knots and their quotients.

Chevalley's theorem and it's converse, the Sheppard-Todd theorem, assert that finite reflection groups are distinguished by the fact that the ring of invariant polynomials is freely generated. We show that in the Euclidean case, a weaker condition suffices to characterize finite reflection groups, namely that a freely-…

We present an alternative definition for the Goussarov--Habiro filtration of the Z-module freely generated by oriented integral homology 3-spheres, by means of Lagrangian-preserving homology handlebody replacements (LP-surgeries). Garoufalidis, Goussarov and Polyak proved that the graded space (G_n)_n associated to thi…

We introduce a class of spaces, called real cubings, and study the stucture of groups acting nicely on these spaces. Just as cubings are a natural generalisation of simplicial trees, real cubings can be regarded as a natural generalisation of real trees. Our main result states that a finitely generated group $G$ acts n…

TODS automates time series outlier detection with customizable pipelines.

The task of estimating the fundamental frequency of a monophonic sound recording, also known as pitch tracking, is fundamental to audio processing with multiple applications in speech processing and music information retrieval. To date, the best performing techniques, such as the pYIN algorithm, are based on a combinat…

This paper gives a self-contained and complete proof of the isomorphism of freely generated monoids extracted from Temperley-Lieb algebras with monoids made of Kauffman's diagrams.

Finite groups act freely on surfaces but not on 3-manifolds.

The main theorem is that if K is a finite CW complex with finite fundamental group G and universal cover homotopy equivalent to a product of spheres X, then G acts smoothly and freely on X x S^n for any n greater than or equal to the dimension of X. If the G-action on the universal cover of K is homologically trivial t…

If V and W are varieties of algebras such that any V-algebra A has a reduct U(A) in W, there is a forgetful functor U: V->W that acts by A |-> U(A) on objects, and identically on homomorphisms. This functor U always has a left adjoint F: W->V by general considerations. One calls F(B) the V-algebra freely generated by t…

The regular reduction of a Dirac manifold acted upon freely and properly by a Lie group is generalized to a nonfree action. For this, several facts about $G$-invariant vector fields and one-forms are shown.

We obtain a number of finiteness results for groups acting on Gromov-hyperbolic spaces. In particular we show that a torsion-free locally quasiconvex hyperbolic group has only finitely many conjugacy classes of $n$-generated one-ended subgroups. We also show that the rank problem is solvable for the class of torsion-fr…

Private training and synthetic data generation using DP clustering.

Let $M$ be an oriented even-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which a discrete group $Γ$ of orientation-preserving isometries acts freely, so that the quotient $X=M/Γ$ is compact. We prove a vanishing theorem for a half-kernel of a $Γ$-invariant Dirac operator on a $Γ$-equivariant Clifford module over $M$, twisted by …

We construct locally homogeneous 6-dimensional nearly Kähler manifolds as quotients of homogeneous nearly Kähler manifolds $M$ by freely acting finite subgroups of $Aut_0(M)$. We show that non-trivial such groups do only exists if $M=S^3\times S^3$. In that case we classify all freely acting subgroups of $Aut_0(M)=SU (…

We produce infinitely many examples of Anosov flows in closed 3-manifolds where the set of periodic orbits is partitioned into two infinite subsets. In one subset every closed orbit is freely homotopic to infinitely other closed orbits of the flow. In the other subset every closed orbit is freely homotopic to only one …

We use moduli spaces of instantons and Chern-Simons invariants of flat connections to prove that the Whitehead doubles of (2,2^n-1) torus knots are independent in the smooth knot concordance group; that is, they freely generate a subgroup of infinite rank.

Generalized Steinberg module presentation for Gaussian and Eisenstein integers.

While deep learning has achieved great success in computer vision and many other fields, currently it does not work very well on patient genomic data with the "big p, small N" problem (i.e., a relatively small number of samples with high-dimensional features). In order to make deep learning work with a small amount of …

We give a sufficient condition, with no restrictions on the mean curvature, under which the conformal method can be used to generate solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds. The condition requires a so-called global supersolution but does not require a global subsolution. As a consequ…

Study Kauffman bracket skein modules of Seifert fibered spaces.

We introduce higher skein modules of links generalizing the Conway skein module. We show that these modules are closely connected to the HOMFLY polynomial.

Proves finiteness and holonomicity of skein modules for 3-manifolds.

The paper develops residue currents for cohesive modules and proves a generalized Poincaré-Lelong formula.

We use the notion of fixity for representations of finite groups to construct free and smooth actions on products of spheres. In particular we show that a finite p-group (for p>3) will act freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres if and only if it does not contain a rank 3 elementary abelian subgroup. We show th…

We define 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbes related to general Lie 2-crossed modules and discuss their properties. A 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbe over a manifold is defined in terms of a so called 2-crossed module bundle gerbe, which is a crossed module bundle gerbe equipped with an extra sructure. It is shown that s…

Introduces admissible skein modules for non-semisimple categories.

In this paper we show that the cohomology of a connected CW complex is periodic if and only if it is the base space of an orientable spherical fibration with total space that is homotopically finite dimensional. As applications we characterize those discrete groups that act freely and properly on a cartesian product of…

We study the meromorphic open-string vertex algebras and their modules over the two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are complete, connected, orientable, and of constant sectional curvature $K\neq 0$. Using the parallel tensors, we explicitly determine a basis for the meromorphic open-string vertex algebra, its mo…

Researchers computed Kauffman bracket skein modules of specific Seifert manifolds.

Extends Kauffman's formula to 3-manifolds with markings.

We study the phenomenon that some modules of deep neural networks (DNNs) are more critical than others. Meaning that rewinding their parameter values back to initialization, while keeping other modules fixed at the trained parameters, results in a large drop in the network's performance. Our analysis reveals interestin…

We use methods from the cohomology of groups to describe the finite groups which can act freely and homologically trivially on closed 3-manifolds which are rational homology spheres.
