48 results for invariant interval

We consider the problem of undirected graphical model inference. In many applications, instead of perfectly recovering the unknown graph structure, a more realistic goal is to infer some graph invariants (e.g., the maximum degree, the number of connected subgraphs, the number of isolated nodes). In this paper, we propo…

Efficient algorithm computes knot invariants quickly.

An oriented three-manifold with torus boundary admits either no L-space Dehn filling, a unique L-space filling, or an interval of L-space fillings. In the latter case, which we call "Floer simple," we construct an invariant which computes the interval of L-space filling slopes from the Turaev torsion and a given slope …

Using the theory of involutive Heegaard Floer knot theory developed by Hendricks-Manolescu, we define two involutive analogs of the Upsilon knot concordance invariant of Ozsvath-Stipsicz-Szabo. These involutive invariants are piecewise linear functions defined on the interval [0,2]. Each is a concordance invariant and …

The knot invariant Upsilon, defined by Ozsvath, Stipsicz, and Szabo, induces a homomorphism from the smooth knot concordance group to the group of piecewise linear functions on the interval [0,2]. Here we define a set of related secondary invariants, each of which assigns to a knot a piecewise linear function on [0,2].…

The knot concordance invariant Upsilon, recently defined by Ozsvath, Stipsicz, and Szabo, takes values in the group of piecewise linear functions on the closed interval [0,2]. This paper presents a description of one approach to defining Upsilon and of proving its basic properties related to the knot 3-genus, 4-genus, …

We prove Fu's power series conjecture which relates the algebra of isometry invariant valuations on complex space forms to a formal power series from combinatorics which was introduced by Tutte. The nn-th coefficient of this series is the number of triangulations of a triangle with 3n3n internal edges; or the number o…

For every smooth del Pezzo surface SS, smooth curve CKSC\in|-K_{S}| and β(0,1]β\in(0,1], we compute the αα-invariant of Tian α(S,(1β)C)α(S,(1-β)C) and prove the existence of Kähler--Einstein metrics on SS with edge singularities along CC of angle 2πβ2πβ for ββ in certain interval.

The information content of a tangle machine is contained in characteristic quantities associated to equivalence classes of tangle machines, which are called invariants. This paper constructs …

We consider families of Dirac operators on the unit interval which depend on parameters via boundary conditions. We study the associated eta forms and Maslov cocyles. With this simple example we show how previous results of Lesch/Woiciechowski and the first author on the eta invariant of cylinders generalize to the fam…

We consider expanding vacuum spacetimes with a CMC foliation by compact spacelike hypersurfaces. Under scale invariant a priori geometric bounds (type-III), we show that there are arbitrarily large future time intervals that are modelled by a flat spacetime or a Kasner spacetime. We give related results for a class of …

The volume density of a hyperbolic link is defined as the ratio of hyperbolic volume to crossing number. We study its properties and a closely-related invariant called the determinant density. It is known that the sets of volume densities and determinant densities of links are dense in the interval [0,v_{oct}]. We cons…

Let G be compact Lie group. It is shown that the cotangent bundle of the complexification of G admits a hyperkahler structure which is invariant under left and right translations by elements of G.

Prediction intervals are a valuable way of quantifying uncertainty in regression problems. Good prediction intervals should be both correct, containing the actual value between the lower and upper bound at least a target percentage of the time; and tight, having a small mean width of the bounds. Many prior techniques f…
