Total torsion of 3D lines of curvature is an integer multiple of 2π.

This paper investigates integer multiplication of continued fractions using geometric structures. In particular, this paper shows that integer multiplication of a continued fraction can be represented by replacing one triangulation of an orbifold with another triangulation. This method is used to show that eventually p…

End-to-end pipeline for data-driven decision making in mixed-integer optimization.

It is proved that each lattice with complex multiplication by $f\sqrt{-D}$ corresponds to a pseudo-lattice with real multiplication by $f'\sqrt{D}$, where $f'$ is an integer defined by $f$.

Study of lambda lengths in figure eight knot complement using Eisenstein integers.

We study the contribution of multiple covers of an irreducible rational curve C in a Calabi-Yau threefold Y to the genus 0 Gromov-Witten invariants in the following cases. (1) If the curve C has one node and satisfies a certain genericity condition, we prove that the contribution of multiple covers of degree d is given…

We introduce a multiple conjugation biquandle, and show that it is the universal algebra to define a semi-arc coloring invariant for handlebody-links. A multiple conjugation biquandle is a generalization of a multiple conjugation quandle. We extend the notion of $n$-parallel biquandle operations for any integer $n$, an…

I. Hambleton, A. Korzeniewski and A. Ranicki proved that the signature of a fibre bundle of closed, connected, compatibly oriented PL manifolds is always multiplicative modulo 4. In this paper, we consider the Hirzebruch $χ_y$-genera for odd integers $y$ for a smooth fiber bundle such that the base, fibre, and total sp…

New MIP approach for efficient change-point detection.

The study explores mapping degree sets and their properties for manifolds.

This paper considers the problem of estimating the structure of multiple related directed acyclic graph (DAG) models. Building on recent developments in exact estimation of DAGs using integer linear programming (ILP), we present an ILP approach for joint estimation over multiple DAGs, that does not require that the ver…

Paper proves existence of minimal surfaces with alternating multiple zeta values.

Improved RTM uses integer weights to reduce computation and increase interpretability.

We show that the twisted SL(2) skein algebra of a surface has a natural basis (the bracelets basis) that is positive, in the sense that the structure constants for multiplication are positive integers.

Given a non circular spacial closed curve whose total torsion is an integer multiple of $2π$, we construct a germ of a smooth surface that contains it as a hyperbolic principal cycle.

We prove several results on Almgren's multiple valued functions and their links to integral currents. In particular, we give a simple proof of the fact that a Lipschitz multiple valued map naturally defines an integer rectifiable current; we derive explicit formulae for the boundary, the mass and the first variations a…

New self-shrinkers with multiple ends constructed by stacking planes.

We study the problem of learning sequential decision-making policies in settings with multiple state-action representations. Such settings naturally arise in many domains, such as planning (e.g., multiple integer programming formulations) and various combinatorial optimization problems (e.g., those with both integer pr…

Improved machine translation with INT8 hardware using a novel training method.

Special Legendrian Integral Cycles in $S^5$ are the links of the tangent cones to Special Lagrangian integer multiplicity rectifiable currents in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that such Special Legendrian Cycles are smooth except possibly at isolated points.

Scoring systems are linear classification models that only require users to add, subtract and multiply a few small numbers in order to make a prediction. These models are in widespread use by the medical community, but are difficult to learn from data because they need to be accurate and sparse, have coprime integer co…

Existing approaches to combine both additive and multiplicative neural units either use a fixed assignment of operations or require discrete optimization to determine what function a neuron should perform. However, this leads to an extensive increase in the computational complexity of the training procedure. We present…

Prediction problems often admit competing models that perform almost equally well. This effect challenges key assumptions in machine learning when competing models assign conflicting predictions. In this paper, we define predictive multiplicity as the ability of a prediction problem to admit competing models with confl…

We prove that 2 dimensional Integral currents (i.e. integer multiplicity 2 dimensional rectifiable currents) which are almost complex cycles in an almost complex manifold admitting locally a compatible symplectic form are smooth surfaces aside from isolated points and therefore are J-holomorphic curves.

The construction of knots via annular twisting has been used to create families of knots yielding the same manifold via Dehn surgery. Prior examples have all involved Dehn surgery where the surgery slope is an integral multiple of 2. In this note we prove that for any integer $n$ there exist infinitely many different k…

Existing approaches to combine both additive and multiplicative neural units either use a fixed assignment of operations or require discrete optimization to determine what function a neuron should perform. This leads either to an inefficient distribution of computational resources or an extensive increase in the comput…

We present a riemannian structure on the disk that has a remarkably rich structure. Geodesics are hypocycloids and the (negative of the) laplacian has integer spectrum with multiplicity the Dirichlet divisor function. Eigenfunctions of the laplacian are orthogonal polynomials naturally suited to the analysis of acousti…

We prove under suitable hypotheses that convergence of integral varifolds implies convergence of associated mod 2 flat chains and subsequential convergence of associated integer-multiplicity rectifiable currents. The convergence results imply restrictions on the kinds of singularities that can occur in mean curvature f…

In this note, we combine the work of Ilmanen and of Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi to observe a uniqueness property for tangent flows at the first singular time of a smooth mean curvature flow of a closed surface in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. Specifically, if, at a fixed singular point, one tangent flow is a positive in…

We establish an optimal regularity result for parametrized two-dimensional stationary varifolds. Namely, we show that the parametrization map is a smooth minimal branched immersion and that the multiplicity function is constant. We provide some applications of this regularity result, especially in the calculus of varia…

Effects of randomness on non-integer power law tails in multiplicatively interacting stochastic processes are investigated theoretically. Generally, randomness causes decrease of the exponent of tails and the growth rate of processes. Explicit calculations are performed for two examples: uniformly distributed and two p…

We present a binary code for spinors and Clifford multiplication using non-negative integers and their binary expressions, which can be easily implemented in computer programs for explicit calculations. As applications, we present explicit descriptions of the triality automorphism of $Spin(8)$, explicit representations…

Given smooth manifolds $V^n$ and $M^m$, an integer $k$, and an immersion $f:V\looparrowright M$, we have constructed an obstruction for existence of regular homotopy of $f$ to an immersion $f':V\looparrowright M$ without $k$-fold points. This obstruction takes values in certain framed bordism group, and for $(k+1)(n+1)…

Uniqueness proven for stable hypersurface tangent cones.

On an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold (X,g), we show that the resolvent resonances coincide, with multiplicities, with the poles of the renormalized scattering operator, except for the special points n/2-k (with k>0 integer) where an additional term appears: this is the dimension of the kernel of the k-conformal Lap…

Low bit-width integer weights and activations are very important for efficient inference, especially with respect to lower power consumption. We propose Monte Carlo methods to quantize the weights and activations of pre-trained neural networks without any re-training. By performing importance sampling we obtain quantiz…

For an arbitrary positive integer $n$ and a pair $(p, q)$ of coprime integers, consider $n$ copies of a torus $(p,q)$ knot placed parallel to each other on the surface of the corresponding auxiliary torus: we call this assembly a torus $n$-link. We compute economical presentations of knot groups for torus links using t…

In this paper we study integer multiplicity rectifiable currents carried by the subgradient (subdifferential) graphs of semi-convex functions on a $n$-dimensional convex domain, and show a weak continuity theorem with respect to pointwise convergence for such currents. As an application, the $k$-Hessian measures are ca…

Laurent Hauswirth and Harold Rosenberg developed the theory of minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in $\H^2\times\R$. They showed that the total curvature of one such a surface must be a non-negative integer multiple of $-2π$. The first examples appearing in this context are vertical geodesic planes and Scherk…

In this paper, we study the dual representation for generalized multiple stopping problems, hence the pricing problem of general multiple exercise options. We derive a dual representation which allows for cashflows which are subject to volume constraints modeled by integer valued adapted processes and refraction period…

New AR framework handles missing values for better recourse actions.

We explore the possibility of using machine learning to identify interesting mathematical structures by using certain quantities that serve as fingerprints. In particular, we extract features from integer sequences using two empirical laws: Benford's law and Taylor's law and experiment with various classifiers to ident…

We prove that, for a generic set of smooth prescription functions $h$ on a closed ambient manifold, there always exists a nontrivial, smooth, closed hypersurface of prescribed mean curvature $h$. The solution is either an embedded minimal hypersurface with integer multiplicity, or a non-minimal almost embedded hypersur…
