Infinite type surfaces can be perfectly divided into triangles.

Researchers prove the arc complexes of decorated hyperbolic polygons are balls.

Refining the notion of an ideal triangulation of a compact three-manifold, we provide in this paper a combinatorial presentation of the set of pairs (M,a), where M is a three-manifold and a is a collection of properly embedded arcs. We also show that certain well-understood combinatorial moves are sufficient to relate …

This paper studies deformations of hyperbolic surfaces with special structures.

Given a reduced alternating diagram for a link, we obtain conditions that guarantee that the link complement has a complete hyperbolic structure, crossing arcs are the edges of an ideal geodesic triangulation, and every crossing arc is isotopic to a simple geodesic. The latter was conjectured by Sakuma and Weeks in 199…

Study strip deformations of hyperbolic polygons with decorated vertices.

We define an associative algebra AS_h(S) generated by framed arcs and links over a punctured surface S which is a quantization of the Poisson algebra C(S) of arcs and curves on S. We then construct a Poisson algebra homomorphism from C(S) to the space of smooth functions on the decorated Teichmuller space endowed with …

The paper proves ideal triangulations and disk unfolding for singular flat surfaces.

Let M be the moduli space of irreducible flat PSL(2,R) connections on a punctured surface of finite type with parabolic holonomies around punctures. By using a notion of admissibility of an ideal arc, M is covered by dense open subsets associated to ideal triangulations of the surface. A principal bundle over M is cons…

By using non-positively curved cubings of prime alternating link exteriors, we prove that certain ideal triangulations of their complements, derived from reduced alternating diagrams, are non-degenerate, in the sense that none of the edges is homotopic relative its endpoints to a peripheral arc. This guarantees that th…

Based on hyperbolic geometric considerations, Roger and Yang introduced an extension of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra that includes arcs. In particular, their skein algebra is a deformation quantization of a certain commutative curve algebra, and there is a Poisson algebra homomorphism between the curve algebra an…

The AI2 Reasoning Challenge (ARC), a new benchmark dataset for question answering (QA) has been recently released. ARC only contains natural science questions authored for human exams, which are hard to answer and require advanced logic reasoning. On the ARC Challenge Set, existing state-of-the-art QA systems fail to s…

The $SU_3$-skein algebra of a surface $F$ is spanned by isotopy classes of certain framed graphs in $F\times I$ called $3$-webs subject to the skein relations encapsulating relations between $U_q(sl(3))$-representations. These skein algebras are quantizations of the $SL(3)$-character varieties of surfaces. It is expect…

Researchers derive the relation between temperature and volatility in ideal agent systems.

This short note gives a geometric interpretation of the Atiyah class of a Lie pair. It proves that it vanishes if the subalgebroid is the kernel of a fibration of Lie algebroids. In other words, the Atiyah class of a Lie pair vanishes if the subalgebroid is the fiber of an ideal system in the Lie algebroid. In order to…

Let $S$ be an $n$-punctured sphere, with $n \geq 3$. We prove that $\binom{n}{3}$ is the maximum size of a family of pairwise non-homotopic simple arcs on $S$ joining a fixed pair of distinct punctures of $S$ and pairwise intersecting at most twice. On the way, we show that a square annular diagram $A$ has a corner on …

Wilson lines generate positive Laurent polynomials in decorated triangulations.

We propose a method called ideal regression for approximating an arbitrary system of polynomial equations by a system of a particular type. Using techniques from approximate computational algebraic geometry, we show how we can solve ideal regression directly without resorting to numerical optimization. Ideal regression…

The paper studies parabolic representations of 2-bridge links using symplectic quandles.

The study counts 23 maximal 1-systems on a torus with 2 punctures.

Given a Riemann surface with boundary S, the lengths of a maximal system of disjoint simple geodesic arcs on S that start and end at the boundary of S perpendicularly are coordinates on the Teichmueller space T(S). We compute the Weil-Petersson Poisson structure on T(S) in this system of coordinates and we prove that i…

Quadratic growth of intersecting curves on surfaces resolved.

In this paper, we formulate a new local move on virtual knot diagram, called arc shift move. Further, we extend it to another local move called region arc shift defined on a region of a virtual knot diagram. We establish that these arc shift and region arc shift moves are unknotting operations by showing that any virtu…

With any non necessarily orientable unpunctured marked surface (S,M) we associate a commutative algebra, called quasi-cluster algebra, equipped with a distinguished set of generators, called quasi-cluster variables, in bijection with the set of arcs and one-sided simple closed curves in (S,M). Quasi-cluster variables a…

Study on unknotting twisted knots using arc shift and region arc shift moves.

It is shown that the projection image of an oriented spatial arc to any oriented plane is approximated by a unique arc diagram (up to isomorphic arc diagrams) determined from the spatial arc and the projection. In a separated paper, the knotting probability of an arc diagram is defined as an invariant under isomorphic …

Researchers derive the chemical potential equation for ideal agent systems.

This article is about applications of linear algebra to knot theory. For example, for odd prime p, there is a rule (given in the article) for coloring the arcs of a knot or link diagram from the residues mod p. This is a knot invariant in the sense that if a diagram of the knot under study admits such a coloring, then …

Thurston introduced shear deformations (cataclysms) on geodesic laminations - deformations including left and right displacements along geodesics. For hyperbolic surfaces with cusps, we consider shear deformations on disjoint unions of ideal geodesics. The length of a balanced weighted sum of ideal geodesics is defined…

We show that discrete $W_m$ lattices are bi-Hamiltonian, using geometric realizations of discretizations of the Adler-Gel'fand-Dikii flows as local evolutions of arc length-parametrized polygons in centro-affine space. We prove the compatibility of two known Hamiltonian structure defined on the space of geometric invar…
