This paper has four main parts. In the first part, we construct a noncommutative residue for the hypoelliptic calculus on Heisenberg manifolds, that is, for the class of Heisenberg PsiDOs introduced by Beals-Greiner and Taylor. This noncommutative residue appears as the residual trace on integer order Heisenberg PsiDOs…
A group of matrices G with entries in a number field K is defined to be numerical if G has a finite index subgroup of matrices whose entries are algebraic integers. It is shown that an irreducible or completely reducible subgroup of GL(n,K)⊂GL(n,C) is numerical if and only if the traces of its e…
We review the current state of the art concerning the characterization of traces of the spaces W1,p(Bm−1×(0,1),N) of Sobolev mappings with values into a compact manifold N. In particular, we exhibit a new analytical obstruction to the extension, which occurs when p<m …
Our main result is that for all sufficiently large x0>0, the set of commensurability classes of arithmetic hyperbolic 2- or 3-orbifolds with fixed invariant trace field k and systole bounded below by x0 has density one within the set of all commensurability classes of arithmetic hyperbolic 2- or 3-orbifolds wit…
In this paper we produce several new invariants for CR and contact manifolds by looking at the noncommutative residue traces of various geometric projections. In the CR setting these operators arise from the Kohn-Rossi complex and include the Szegö projections on forms. In the contact setting they stem from the general…
Topological quantum field theories with gauge group SU2 associate to each surface with marked points Σ and each integer r>0 a vector space Vr(Σ) and to each simple closed curve γ in Σ an Hermitian operator Trγ acting on that space. We show that the matrix elements of the operators Trγ ha…
We introduce tensor network contraction algorithms for the evaluation of the Jones polynomial of arbitrary knots. The value of the Jones polynomial of a knot maps to the partition function of a q-state Potts model defined as a planar graph with weighted edges that corresponds to the knot. For any integer q, we cast…
We study the Thurston norm on the second homology of a 3-manifold M, which is the surface bundle over the circle with a pseudo-Anosov monodromy. A novelty of our approach consists in the application of the C*-algebras to a problem in topology. Namely, one associates to M a C*-algebra, whose K-theory gives rise to an al…
We show that the Alexander-Conway polynomial Delta is obtainable via a particular one-variable reduction of each two-variable Links-Gould invariant LG^{m,1}, where m is a positive integer. Thus there exist infinitely many two-variable generalisations of Delta. This result is not obvious since in the reduction, the repr…

result The Half-Full/Half-Empty model outperforms other methods in risk and profitability.
We give a detailed description of the arithmetic Fuchsian group of the Bolza surface and the associated quaternion order. This description enables us to show that the corresponding principal congruence covers satisfy the bound sys(X) > 4/3 log g(X) on the systole, where g is the genus. We also exhibit the Bolza group a…
This is a continuation of our previous work arXiv:1601.05617 on trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. More new inequalities for the trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues are obtained.
From a handlebody-theoretic perspective, the simplest compact, contractible 4-manifolds, other than the 4-ball, are Mazur manifolds. We produce the first pairs of Mazur manifolds that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic. Our diffeomorphism obstruction comes from our proof that the knot Floer homology concordance inv…
We prove the identity ∏γ(el(γ)−1el(γ)+1)2h=exp(2l1+l2+l3), (or ∏γ(t(γ)2−4t(γ)2)h=2t1+t12−4⋅2t2+t22−4⋅2t3+t32−4 in trace coordinates), where the product is ov…
We study the problem of learning a good search policy for combinatorial search spaces. We propose retrospective imitation learning, which, after initial training by an expert, improves itself by learning from \textit{retrospective inspections} of its own roll-outs. That is, when the policy eventually reaches a feasible…
In this paper, we obtain some new estimates for the trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. The estimates generalize some previous results of Hersch-Payne-Schiffer , Brock}, Raulot-Savo and Dittmar.
This paper is essentially a short version of hep-th/9404046. We compute multiplicative anomaly det(AB)/(detA detB) =F(A,B) for elliptic pseudo-differential operators (PDOs) A, B on a closed manifold M in terms of their symbols. We prove that F(A,B)=1 for elliptic differential operators close to positive-definite ones o…
This paper investigates the strength of the trace field as a commensurability invariant of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We construct an infinite family of two-component hyperbolic link complements which are pairwise incommensurable and have the same trace field, and infinitely many 1-cusped finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifo…
We give axioms which characterize the local Reidemeister trace for orientable differentiable manifolds. The local Reidemeister trace in fixed point theory is already known, and we provide both uniqueness and existence results for the local Reidemeister trace in coincidence theory.
