48 results for geometric axioms

In this paper, we construct a new homology theory for semi-groups satisfying the self distributivity axiom or the idempotency axiom. Next, we consider the geometric realization corresponding to the homology theory. We continue with the comparison of this homology theory with one term and two term (rack) homology theori…

method Local regularization, spectral truncation, gluing surfaces, CFT correlation functions, zeta determinants.
result Rigorously derived entropy calculation and geometric proofs.

The purpose of this note is introduce a new axiom (called the Descent Axiom) in the theory of rr-spin cohomological field theories. This axiom explains the origin of gravitational descendants in this theory. Furthermore, the Descent Axiom immediately implies the Vanishing Axiom, explicating the latter (which has no a …

The formulation of Geometric Quantization contains several axioms and assumptions. We show that for real polarizations we can generalize the standard geometric quantization procedure by introducing an arbitrary connection on the polarization bundle. The existence of reducible quantum structures leads to considering the…

A proposal is made for what could well be the most natural symmetrical Riemannian spaces which are homogeneous but not isotropic, i.e. of what could well be the most natural class of symmetrical spaces beyond the spaces of constant Riemannian curvature, that is, beyond the spaces which are homogeneous and isotropic, or…

Open problem: Establishing bounds for Cayley-table completion to discover discrete algorithmic axioms.

problem Discovering discrete algorithmic axioms missing in deep learning.
method Cayley-table completion as a testbed for algorithmic complexity minimization.
result Formal exact recovery bounds for Cayley-table completion.

As datasets capturing human choices grow in richness and scale -- particularly in online domains -- there is an increasing need for choice models that escape traditional choice-theoretic axioms such as regularity, stochastic transitivity, and Luce's choice axiom. In this work we introduce the Pairwise Choice Markov Cha…

Treating a conjecture, P^#P != NP, on the separation of complexity classes as an axiom, an implication is found in three manifold topology with little obvious connection to complexity theory. This is reminiscent of Harvey Friedman's work on finitistic interpretations of large cardinal axioms.

This paper generalizes Sinkhorn algorithm for unbalanced optimal transport.

method Alternates between standard Sinkhorn updates and pointwise application of a contractive function.
result Defines Sinkhorn divergences that are differentiable, positive, definite, convex, and robust.

It is known, that if a 2m-dimensional Kahler manifold satisfies the axiom of holomorphic 2n-spheres (1<n<m) or the axiom of antiholomorphic n-spheres (2<n), it is of constant holomorphic sectional curvature. In this paper the same result is obtained under weaker assumptions.

The notion of Courant algebroid was introduced by Liu, Weinstein and Xu in 1997. Its definition consists of five axioms and an assumption for a derivation. It is shown that two of the axioms and the assumption for the derivation follow from the rest of the axioms.

We introduce the concept of a higher algebroid, generalizing the notions of an algebroid and a higher tangent bundle. Our ideas are based on a description of (Lie) algebroids as vector bundle comorphisms - differential relations of a special kind. In our approach higher algebroids are vector bundle comorphism between g…

We studied the axiom of anti-invariant 2-spheres and the axiom of co-holomorphic (2n+1)(2n+1)-spheres. We proved that a nearly Kählerian manifold satisfying the axiom of anti-invariant 2-spheres is a space of constant holomorphic sectional curvature. We also showed that an almost Hermitian manifold MM of dimension $2m\geq…

New axioms justify ES without NRC, linking it to mean-ES portfolio selection.

result Concentration aversion uniquely characterizes the family of ES and provides new formulas.

This is the first in a series of papers constructing geometric models of twisted differential K-theory. In this paper we construct a model of even twisted differential K-theory when the underlying topological twist represents a torsion class. By differential twists we will mean smooth U(1)-gerbes with connection, and w…

result Neither Shapley value nor Integrated Gradients can satisfy all axioms for reflecting risks accurately.

The second author previously discussed how classical complexity separation conjectures, we call them "axioms", have implications in three manifold topology: polynomial length stings of operations which preserve certain Jones polynomial evaluations cannot produce exponential simplifications of link diagrams. In this pap…

A proper etale Lie groupoid is modelled as a (noncommutative) spectral geometric space. The spectral triple is built on the algebra of smooth functions on the groupoid base which are invariant under the groupoid action. Stiefel-Whitney classes in Lie groupoid cohomology are introduced to measure the orientability of th…

Kleinberg introduced three natural clustering properties, or axioms, and showed they cannot be simultaneously satisfied by any clustering algorithm. We present a new clustering property, Monotonic Consistency, which avoids the well-known problematic behaviour of Kleinberg's Consistency axiom, and the impossibility resu…

We shall give an axiomatic construction of Wess-Zumino-Witten actions valued in (G=SU(N)), (N\geq 3).

We give a construction of the abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory from the point of view of a 2+1 dimensional topological quantum field theory.

Milnor proved two uniqueness theorems for axiomatic (co)homology: one for pairs of compacta (1960) and another, in particular, for pairs of countable simplicial complexes (1961).
