Study on Frobenius manifold structures and inversion symmetry.

Symmetry in inverse problems leads to multiple solutions, but breaking symmetry helps deep learning.

Study fixed angle inverse scattering with Riemannian metrics, proving uniqueness and stability.

Inverse spectral theory reveals shapes from sound.

The language of Lagrangian submanifolds is used to extend a geometric characterization of the inverse problem of the calculus of variations on tangent bundles to regular Lie algebroids. Since not all closed sections are locally exact on Lie algebroids, the Helmholtz conditions on Lie algebroids are necessary but not su…

For two solutions of the WDVV equations that are related by the inversion symmetry, we show that the associated principal hierarchies of integrable systems are related by a reciprocal transformation, and the tau functions of the hierarchies are related by a Legendre type transformation. We also consider relationships b…

Symmetries of variational problems are considered as symmetries of vector bundle valued exterior differential systems. This approach is then applied to third order ordinary variational equations of motion of the semi-classical spinning particle.

Using the one dimensional free particle symmetries, the quantum finance symmetries are obtained. Namely, it is shown that Black-Scholes equation is invariant under Schrödinger group. In order to do this, the one dimensional free non-relativistic particle and its symmetries are revisited. To get the Black-Scholes equati…

We show that any complete, immersed self-expander to the inverse mean curvature flow, which has one end asymptotic to a cylinder, or has two ends asymptotic to two coaxial cylinders, must be rotationally symmetric.

The graphical lasso (glasso) is a widely-used fast algorithm for estimating sparse inverse covariance matrices. The glasso solves an L1 penalized maximum likelihood problem and is available as an R library on CRAN. The output from the glasso, a regularized covariance matrix estimate a sparse inverse covariance matrix e…

Using the symmetry group theory of second order PDEs, one finds the symmetry group associated to Tzitzeica surfaces partial differential equation. One studies the inverse problem and one shows that the Tzitzeica surfaces PDE is an Euler-Lagrange equation. One determines the variational symmetry group of the associated …

Geometric framework for inverse problems using foliations and dual connections.

This paper is an expository account of the development of soliton mathematics, from its inception in famous numerical experiments of Fermi-Pasta-Ulam and Zabusky-Kruskal to the recent synthesis of Terng-Uhlenbeck (dg-ga/9707004) that explains hidden symmetries of soliton equations in terms of loop-groups acting by dres…

We prove Noether's direct and inverse second theorems for Lagrangian systems on fiber bundles in the case of gauge symmetries depending on derivatives of dynamic variables of an arbitrary order. The appropriate notions of reducible gauge symmetries and Noether's identities are formulated, and their equivalence by means…

Extends exterior diff. sys. to Lie algebroids with examples.

Study nearly parallel G2-structures with torus symmetry using multi-moment maps.

We consider nearly Kähler 6-manifolds with effective 2-torus symmetry. The multi-moment map for the $T^2$-action becomes an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator. At regular values, we prove the $T^2$-action is necessarily free on the level sets and determines the geometry of three-dimensional quotients. An inverse con…

New model learns symmetry transformations from complex data.

Geometric framework explains and controls implicit bias in machine learning.

This study explores magnetic trajectories on the Heisenberg group, finding symmetries and solutions.

We discuss $SU(2)$ Bogomolny monopoles of arbitrary charge $k$ invariant under various symmetry groups. The analysis is largely in terms of the spectral curves, the rational maps, and the Nahm equations associated with monopoles. We consider monopoles invariant under inversion in a plane, monopoles with cyclic symmetry…

We present a reformulation of the inverse problem of the calculus of variations for time dependent systems of second order ordinary differential equations using the Frölicher-Nijenhuis theory on the first jet bundle, $J^1π$. We prove that a system of time dependent SODE, identified with a semispray $S$, is Lagrangian i…

The Darboux-Egoroff system of PDEs with any number $n\ge 3$ of independent variables plays an essential role in the problems of describing $n$-dimensional flat diagonal metrics of Egoroff type and Frobenius manifolds. We construct a recursion operator and its inverse for symmetries of the Darboux-Egoroff system and des…

The main results of this paper are an asymptotic expansion in powers of $\hbar$ for the spectral measure $μ_\hbar$ of a semi-classical Toeplitz operator, $Q_\hbar$, and an equivariant version of this result when $Q_\hbar$ admits an $n$-torus as a symmetry group. In addition we discuss some inverse spectral consequences…

The study proves uniqueness and symmetry of self-similar solutions in warped product spaces.

We investigate self-similar solutions to the inverse mean curvature flow in Euclidean space. In the case of one dimensional planar solitons, we explicitly classify all homothetic solitons and translators. Generalizing Andrews' theorem that circles are the only compact homothetic planar solitons, we apply the Hsiung-Min…

Noise balance theory explains SGD's behavior in neural networks.

Paper introduces a new symbol map for differential symmetry breaking operators.

We formulate a family of spin Topological Quantum Filed Theories (spin-TQFTs) as fermionic generalization of bosonic Dijkgraaf-Witten TQFTs. They are obtained by gauging $G$-equivariant invertible spin-TQFTs, or, in physics language, gauging the interacting fermionic Symmetry Protected Topological states (SPTs) with a …

Extends Euler's problem to Lorentz-Minkowski plane.

Study presents a method to induce a generalized neural network from joint group invariant functions.

We construct new classes of exact solutions in metric--affine gravity (MAG) with string corrections by the antisymmetric $H$--field. The solutions are parametrized by generic off--diagonal metrics possessing noncommutative symmetry associated to anholonomy framerelations and related nonlinear connection (N--connection)…

The flow of symmetric spheres converges to a round sphere.

This paper considers options pricing when the assumption of normality is replaced with that of the symmetry of the underlying distribution. Such a market affords many equivalent martingale measures (EMM). However we argue (as in the discrete-time setting of Klebaner and Landsman, 2007) that an EMM that keeps distributi…

First we review the definition of a negative point mass singularity. Then we examine the gravitational lensing effects of these singularities in isolation and with shear and convergence from continuous matter. We review the Inverse Mean Curvature Flow and use this flow to prove some new results about the mass of a sing…

Guichard's transformations generate Voss surfaces from sine-Gordon solutions.

Up to symmetries, the orbits of three equal masses under an inverse cube force with zero angular momentum and constant moment of inertia can be reparametrized as the geodesics of a complete, negatively curved metric on a pair of pants. The ends of the pants represent binary collisions. Here we will examine the visibili…

We introduce an invariant of tangles in Khovanov homology by considering a natural inverse system of Khovanov homology groups. As application, we derive an invariant of strongly invertible knots; this invariant takes the form of a graded vector space that vanishes if and only if the strongly invertible knot is trivial.…

New method quantifies uncertainty in imaging problems.

Accumulated stock returns exhibit tempered skew t-distribution.

In this work, we move beyond the traditional complex-valued representations, introducing more expressive hypercomplex representations to model entities and relations for knowledge graph embeddings. More specifically, quaternion embeddings, hypercomplex-valued embeddings with three imaginary components, are utilized to …

A new knot invariant measures crossings in three orthogonal directions.

A group, defined as set with associative multiplication and inverse, is a natural structure describing the symmetry of a space. The concept of group generalizes to group objects internal to other categories than sets. But there are yet more general objects that can still be thought of as groups in many ways, such as qu…

This paper treats prediction markets as Bayesian inverse problems to quantify uncertainty and identify event outcomes.

Study of CR twistor model $Q^{2,2}$ and its sections.

Proves smooth solutions for generalised Monge-Ampère equations on projective manifolds.

The twist construction is a geometric T-duality that produces new manifolds from old, works well with for example hypercomplex structures and is easily inverted. It tends to destroy properties such as the hyperKähler condition. On the other hand modifications preserve the hyperKähler property, but do not have an obviou…

In this note we prove that a generic Riemannian manifold of dimension $\geq 3$ does not admit any nontrivial local conformal diffeomorphisms. This is a conformal analog of a result of Sunada concerning local isometries, and makes precise the principle that generic manifolds in high dimensions do not have conformal symm…
