The introduction of a covariant derivative on the velocity phase space is needed for a global expression of Euler-Lagrange equations. The aim of this paper is to show how its torsion tensor turns out to be involved in such a version.

The paper proves a version of the SYZ conjecture for hyperkahler manifolds.

We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of a global diffeomorphism between tame Fréchet spaces. We prove a version of the Mountain Pass Theorem which is a key ingredient in the proof of the main theorem.

We prove a global algebraic version of the Lie-Tresse theorem which states that the algebra of differential invariants of an algebraic pseudogroup action on a differential equation is generated by a finite number of rational-polynomial differential invariants and invariant derivations.

The paper proves rigidity results for compact initial data sets.

We give a summary of recent results on the explicit local form of the second-order symmetric Lorentzian manifolds in arbitrary dimension, and its global version. These spacetimes turn out to be essentially a specific subclass of plane waves.

The EM algorithm is one of the most popular algorithm for inference in latent data models. The original formulation of the EM algorithm does not scale to large data set, because the whole data set is required at each iteration of the algorithm. To alleviate this problem, Neal and Hinton have proposed an incremental ver…

We consider the problem of finding sufficient conditions for a locally Lipschitz mapping between Finsler manifolds to be a global homeomorphism. For this purpose, we develop the notion of Clarke generalized differential in this context and, using this, we obtain a version of the Hadamard integral condition for invertib…

Global implicit function theorem for Fréchet spaces, solving derivative loss problems.

In this brief note, we give an explicit sequence of Heegaard moves interpolating between local versions of the Kauffman-states Heegaard diagram and the planar Heegaard diagram used in knot Floer homology, and show how these local moves can be used to go between the global versions of the Heegaard diagrams.

Bundle gerbes are a higher version of line bundles, we present nonabelian bundle gerbes as a higher version of principal bundles. Connection, curving, curvature and gauge transformations are studied both in a global coordinate independent formalism and in local coordinates. These are the gauge fields needed for the con…

We give a global version of the Bryant representation of surfaces of constant mean curvature one (cmc-1) in hyperbolic space. This allows to set the associated non-abelian period problem in the framework of flat unitary vector bundles on Riemann surfaces. We use this machinery to prove the existence of certain cmc-1 su…

We study super parallel transport around super loops in a quotient stack, and show that this geometry constructs a global version of the equivariant Chern character.

We consider the problem of extending functions φ:\to S^n to functions u:B^{n+1}\to S^n for n=2,3. We assume φto belong to the critical space W^{1,n} and we construct a W^{1,(n+1,\infty)}-controlled extension u. The Lorentz-Sobolev space W^{1,(n+1,\infty)} is optimal for such controlled extension. Then we use such resul…

We construct Zollfrei Lorentzian metrics on every nontrivial orientable circle bundle over a orientable closed surface. Further we prove a weaker version of Guillemin's conjecture assuming global hyperbolicity of the universal cover.

Compact hyperkaehler manifolds are higher-dimensional generalizations of K3 surfaces. The classical Global Torelli theorem for K3 surfaces, however, does not hold in higher dimensions. More precisely, a compact hyperkaehler manifold is in general not determined by its natural weight-two Hodge structure. The text gives …

Improved portfolio optimization method yields better risk-adjusted returns.

Geroch's theorem about the splitting of globally hyperbolic spacetimes is a central result in global Lorentzian Geometry. Nevertheless, this result was obtained at a topological level, and the possibility to obtain a metric (or, at least, smooth) version has been controversial since its publication in 1970. In fact, th…

Some methods based on simple regularizing geometric element transformations have heuristically been shown to give runtime efficient and quality effective smoothing algorithms for meshes. We describe the mathematical framework and a systematic approach to global optimization-based versions of such methods for mixed volu…

Global homotopies upgrade classical map in differential geometry.

We are interested in global properties of systems of left-invariant differential operators on compact Lie groups: regularity properties, properties on the closedness of the range and finite dimensionality of their cohomology spaces, when acting on various function spaces e.g. smooth, analytic and Gevrey. Extending the …

We give sufficient conditions for a $C^1_c$-local diffeomorphism between Fréchet spaces to be a global one. We extend the Clarke's theory of generalized gradients to the more general setting of Fréchet spaces. As a consequence, we define the Chang Palais-Smale condition for Lipschitz functions and show that a functio…

Characterizes Lorentzian manifolds embeddable in Minkowski spacetime.

We study co-associative fibrations of G_{2}-manifolds. We propose that the adiabatic limit of this structure should be given locally by a maximal submanifold in a space of indefinite signature and set up global versions of the constructions.

By studying $L^p$-combinations of strongly isomorphic polytopes, we prove the equivalence of the $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality conjectured by Böröczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang to the local version of the inequality studied by Colesanti, Livshyts, and Marsiglietti and by Kolesnikov and Milman, settling a conjecture of…

Study optimal transport on globally hyperbolic spacetimes, focusing on weak Kantorovich potentials' regularity.

We prove a Lorentzian splitting theorem with weakened curvature conditions.

We show that for a metric space with an even number of points there is a 1-Lipschitz map to a tree-like space with the same matching number. This result gives the first basic version of an unoriented Kantorovich duality. The study of the duality gives a version of global calibrations for 1-chains with coefficients in $…

The paper studies global invertibility of maps on Finsler manifolds.

Probability versions of Li-Yau inequalities for manifolds with boundary.

We continue the development of $\mathbb{Z}^n_2$-supergeometry, a natural generalization of classical ($\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded) supergeometry, by proving the Frobenius theorem for integrable distributions on differentiable $\mathbb{Z}^n_2$-supermanifolds. Both the local and global versions of the theorem are addressed.

Let $M$ be a close complex manifold and $TM$ its holomorphic tangent bundle. We prove that if the global holomorphic sections of tangent bundle generate each fibre, then $M$ is a complex homogeneous manifold. Our proof depends on the complex version of Chow-Rashevskii theorem in Carnot-Caratheodory spaces.

Proves well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the Dirac operator on non-compact spacetimes.

Employing Morse theory for the global control of monodromy and the method of analytic discs for local extension, we establish a version of the global Hartogs extension theorem in a singular setting: for every domain D of an (n-1)-complete normal complex space X of pure dimension n >= 2 and for every compact set K in D …

We show that the De Donder form for second order gravity, defined in terms of Ostrogradski's version of the Legendre transformation applied to all independent variables, is globally defined by its local coordinate descriptions. It is a natural differential operator applied to the diffeomorphism invariant Lagrangian of …

In this paper we propose a modified version of the simulated annealing algorithm for solving a stochastic global optimization problem. More precisely, we address the problem of finding a global minimizer of a function with noisy evaluations. We provide a rate of convergence and its optimized parametrization to ensure a…

We present a systematic study of symmetries, invariants and moduli spaces of classes of coframes. We introduce a classifying Lie algebroid to give a complete description of the solution to Cartan's realization problem that applies to both the local and the global versions of this problem.

We introduce and analyze the characteristic foliation induced by a contact structure on a branched surface, in particular a branched standard spine of a 3-manifold. We extend to (fairly general) singular foliations of branched surfaces the local existence and uniqueness results which hold for genuine surfaces. Moreover…

The notion of maximal extension of a globally hyperbolic space-time arises from the notion of maximal solutions of the Cauchy problem associated to the Einstein's equations of general relativity. In 1969 Choquet-Bruhat and Geroch proved that if the Cauchy problem has a local solution, this solution has a unique maximal…

This paper is devoted to the analysis of metric measure spaces satisfying locally the curvature-dimension condition CD(K,N) introduced by the second author and also studied by Lott & Villani. We prove that the local version of CD(K,N) is equivalent to a global condition CD*(K,N), slightly weaker than the (usual, global…

Establishes a version of Bartnik's conjecture for Lorentzian length spaces.

This letter presents an improved version of diffusion least mean ppower (LMP) algorithm for distributed estimation. Instead of sum of mean square errors, a weighted sum of mean square error is defined as the cost function for global and local cost functions of a network of sensors. The weight coefficients are updated b…

Recently several methods were proposed for sparse optimization which make careful use of second-order information [10, 28, 16, 3] to improve local convergence rates. These methods construct a composite quadratic approximation using Hessian information, optimize this approximation using a first-order method, such as coo…

In this work, we introduce the Global Planar Convolution module as a building-block for fully-convolutional networks that aggregates global information and, therefore, enhances the context perception capabilities of segmentation networks in the context of brain tumor segmentation. We implement two baseline architecture…
