19 results for intransitive

We show that formal isomorphism of intransitive linear Lie equations along transversal to the orbits can be extended to neighborhoods of these transversal. In analytic cases, the word formal is dropped from theorems. Also, we associate an intransitive Lie algebra with each intransitive linear Lie equation, and from the…

Local classification of 4D Ricci solitons with specific algebra properties.

problem Classifying 4D Ricci solitons with a 2D Abelian Killing algebra.
method Local classification under specific curvature and symmetry conditions.
result Classification of Ricci solitons with orthogonally intransitive 2D Abelian Killing algebra.

A lemma of Tits establishes a connection between the simple connectivity of an incidence geometry and the universal completion of an amalgam induced by a sufficiently transitive group of automorphisms of that geometry. In the present paper, we generalize this lemma to intransitive geometries, thus opening the door for …

Modeling preference rankings with salient features to explain irrational choices.

problem Estimating rankings from noisy pairwise comparisons with irrational choices.
method Salient feature preference model with maximum likelihood estimation.
result Strong performance of maximum likelihood estimation on synthetic and real data.

Elie Cartan's general equivalence problem is recast in the language of Lie algebroids. The resulting formalism, being coordinate and model-free, allows for a full geometric interpretation of Cartan's method of equivalence via reduction and prolongation. We show how to construct certain normal forms (Cartan algebroids) …

For surfaces, we brush a reasonably sharp picture of the influence of the fundamental group upon the complexity of foliated-dynamics. A metaphor emerges with phase-changes through the solid-liquid-gaseous states. Groups of ranks 0r10\le r\le 1 are frozen with intransitivity reigning ubiquitously. When 2r32\le r \le 3, th…

This paper is a continuation of Part I where the general setup was developed. Here we discuss the general equivalence problem for geometric structures and provide criteria for the equivalence, local and global, of transitive structures. Cartan's Flag Systems illustrate the theory as a major example and, finally, some a…

Lie algebroids are by no means natural as an infinitesimal counterpart of groupoids. In this paper we propose a functorial construction called Nishimura algebroids for an infinitesimal counterpart of groupoids. Nishimura algebroids, intended for differential geometry, are of the same vein as Lawvere's functorial notion…

A general model for geometric structures on differentiable manifolds is obtained by deforming infinitesimal symmetries. Specifically, this model consists of a Lie algebroid, equipped with an affine connection compatible with the Lie algebroid structure. The curvature of this connection vanishes precisely when the struc…

In this paper we describe market in projective geometry language and give definition of a matrix of market rate, which is related to the matrix rate of return and the matrix of judgements in the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). We use these observations to extend the AHP model to projective geometry formalism and gene…

A multiplicatively closed, horizontal nn-plane field DD on a Lie groupoid GG over MM generalizes to intransitive geometry the classical notion of a Cartan connection. The infinitesimalization of the connection DD is a Cartan connection \nabla on the Lie algebroid of GG, a notion already studied elsewhere by th…

Ranking data arises in a wide variety of application areas but remains difficult to model, learn from, and predict. Datasets often exhibit multimodality, intransitivity, or incomplete rankings---particularly when generated by humans---yet popular probabilistic models are often too rigid to capture such complexities. In…

SLHF uses sequential game theory to optimize preferences from human feedback.

problem Optimizing preferences from human feedback in sequential settings.
method SLHF frames the problem as a sequential-move game between Leader and Follower, decomposing the optimization into refinement and adversarial optimization.
result SLHF achieves strong alignment across diverse preference datasets and scales to large models.

method Adopted Generalized Bilinear Preference Model (GBPM) to investigate polylogarithmic regret guarantees.
result Proved polylogarithmic regret bounds for Greedy Sampling and Explore-Then-Commit policies under GBPM.

The paper models reciprocity in interbank markets using a statistical null model.

problem Understanding the importance of individual banks in financial networks.
method Developed an exponential random graph model to account for reciprocal links on both topological and weighted levels.
result Weighted reciprocity in interbank markets is more significant than network size and volume before the financial crisis.

SPPO optimizes language model alignment by treating preferences as a game and achieving state-of-the-art performance.

method Self-play-based approach to identify Nash equilibrium policy through iterative policy updates.
result SPPO achieves state-of-the-art win-rate of 28.53% on AlpacaEval 2.0 without external supervision.
