Study k-folding map-germs to understand surface geometry.

Let $M$ and $N$ be Nash manifolds, and $f$ and $g$ Nash maps from $M$ to $N$. If $M$ and $N$ are compact and if $f$ and $g$ are analytically R-L equivalent, then they are Nash R-L equivalent. In the local case, $C^infty$ R-L equivalence of two Nash map germs implies Nash R-L equivalence. This shows a difference of Nash…

Generic smooth plane-to-plane map germs are topologically equivalent to cones of mappings of the circle. We carry out a complete topological classification of smooth stable mappings of the circle and show how this classification leads, via the result mentioned above, to a topological classification of finitely determin…

In this paper, two sufficient conditions are provided for given two K-equivalent map-germs to be bi-Lipschitz A-equivalent. These are Lipschitz analogues of the known results on C^r-A-equivalence $(0 \leq r \leq \infty)$ for given two K-equivalent map-germs. As a corollary of one of our results, a Lipschitz version of …

Unimodular classification of symmetric matrix map-germs.

Study on conditions for singular local tube fibrations.

In this paper, we introduce the notions of map-germs of pedal unfolding type and normalized Legendrian map-germs; and then we show that the fundamental theorem of calculus provides a natural one to one correspondence between Whitney umbrellas of pedal unfolding type and normalized swallowtails.

We define an equivalence relation called A-isotopy between finitely determined map-germs, which is a strengthened version of A-equivalence. We consider the number of A-isotopy classes of equidimensional Morin singularities, and some other well-known low-dimensional singularities. We also give an application to stable p…

We present a complete set of criteria for determining A-types of plane-to-plane map-germs of corank one with A-codimension <7, which provides a new insight into the A-classification theory from the viewpoint of recognition problem. As an application to generic differential geometry, we discuss about projections of smoo…

Study the topological information of map germs using Euler obstruction.

The study investigates deformations of swallowtails in 3D space, preserving curvature signs.

We provide bi-Lipschitz invariants for finitely determined map germs $f: (\mathbb{K}^n,0) \to (\mathbb{K}^p, 0)$, where $\mathbb{K} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. The aim of the paper is to provide partial answers to the following questions: Does the bi-Lipschitz type of a map germ $f: (\mathbb{R}^n, 0) \to (\mathbb{R…

We consider equivalence relations among smooth map germs with respect to geometry of G-structures on the target space germ. These equivalence relations are natural generalization of right-left equivalence (i.e., A-equivalence) in the sense of Thom-Mather depending on geometric structures on the target space germ. Unfor…

The paper improves Zakalyukin's lemma for frontals and applies it to surface singularities.

K-fold CV improves machine learning model selection but faces challenges with small datasets.

The paper introduces new invariants to study topological properties of map germs.

In this paper we study the Milnor fibrations associated to real analytic map germs $ψ:(\mathbb{R}^{m},0) \to (\mathbb{R}^2,0)$ with isolated critical point at $0\in \mathbb{R}^{m}$. The main result relates the existence of called Strong Milnor fibrations with a transversality condition of a convenient family of analyti…

We use topology of configuration spaces to give a characterization of Neuwirth--Stallings pairs $(S^5, K)$ with $\dim K = 2$. As a consequence, we construct polynomial map germs $(\mathbb{R}^{6},0)\to (\mathbb{R}^{3},0)$ with an isolated singularity at the origin such that their Milnor fibers are not diffeomorphic to a…

The study examines the topology of map germs and their images.

A new cross-validation method reduces redundancy and improves model performance.

K-fold cross validation (CV) is a popular method for estimating the true performance of machine learning models, allowing model selection and parameter tuning. However, the very process of CV requires random partitioning of the data and so our performance estimates are in fact stochastic, with variability that can be s…

This work improves AutoML systems by dynamically evaluating fitness to reduce overfitting.

Study the topology of Milnor boundaries for real analytic map germs.

We construct the full linearisation functor which takes a graded bundle of degree $k$ (a particular kind of graded manifold) and produces a $k$-fold vector bundle. We fully characterise the image of the full linearisation functor and show that we obtain a subcategory of $k$-fold vector bundles consisting of symmetric $…

In this paper we extend the characterization of trivial map-germs for the real Milnor fibrations started by Church and Lamotke. Our main result cover all cases on the three dimensional real Milnor fibers.

A manifold is locally \emph{$k$-fold symmetric}, if for any point and any $k$-dimensional vector subspace tangent to this point there exists a local isometry such that this point is a fixed point and the differential of the isometry restricted to that $k$-dimensional vector subspace is minus the identity. We show that …

Groups with specific curvature have a regular language of geodesics.

Proposes K-Fold Causal BART for improved CATE estimation.

We give a new and simple proof for the computation of the oriented and the unoriented fold cobordism groups of Morse functions on surfaces. We also compute similar cobordism groups of Morse functions based on simple stable maps of 3-manifolds into the plane. Furthermore, we show that certain cohomology classes associat…

We study a moduli stratum of A-orbits of plane-to-plane germs of corank 2 with codimension 3. We describe explicitly the bifurcation diagram of its topologically A-versal unfolding. Two geometric applications to parabolic objects are presented.

Improves test set performance and reduces out-of-sample disappointment for unstable models.

New method improves model risk prediction using cross-audit projection.

We introduce several sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the Milnor vector field for new classes of singularities of map germs. This special vector field is related with the equivalence problem of the Milnor fibrations for real and complex singularities, if they exit.

Improved portfolio optimization method yields better risk-adjusted returns.

Let $f:V^n\looparrowright M^m$ be a smooth generic immersion. Then the set of points, that have at least $k$ preimages is an image of a (non-generic) immersion. If the manifolds $V^n$ and $M^m$ are oriented and $m-n$ is even, then the manifold of $k$-fold points is also oriented. In this paper we compute the oriented b…

Proposes a method to create prediction intervals for neural networks using cross-validation.

K-fold Cross Validation is commonly used to evaluate classifiers and tune their hyperparameters. However, it assumes that data points are Independent and Identically Distributed (i.i.d.) so that samples used in the training and test sets can be selected randomly and uniformly. In Human Activity Recognition datasets, we…

Quasi-holomorphic homotopies of immersions of 3-manifolds into 5-manifolds

We consider branched coverings which are simple in the sense that any point of the target has at most one singular preimage. The cobordism classes of $k$-fold simple branched coverings between $n$-manifolds form an abelian group $Cob^1(n,k)$. Moreover, $Cob^1(*,k) = \bigoplus_{n=0}^{\infty} Cob^1(n,k)$ is a module over…

The paper improves confidence intervals for test error using cross-validation.

The paper classifies constraint mappings in optimization problems.

We study singularities of constant positive Gaussian curvature surfaces and determine the way they bifurcate in generic 1-parameter families of such surfaces. We construct the bifurcations explicitly using loop group methods. Constant Gaussian curvature surfaces correspond to harmonic maps, and we examine the relations…

We consider a priori generalization bounds developed in terms of cross-validation estimates and the stability of learners. In particular, we first derive an exponential Efron-Stein type tail inequality for the concentration of a general function of n independent random variables. Next, under some reasonable notion of s…

RandALO speeds up risk estimation for large datasets.

We construct new constant mean curvature surfaces in H2xR. They arise as sister surfaces of Plateau solutions. It is a family of MC 1/2 surfaces with k ends, genus 1 and k-fold dihedral symmetry, k greater 2. The surfaces are Alexandrov- embedded.

Study describes singularities of height functions on specific singular surfaces.

Echo State Networks (ESNs) are known for their fast and precise one-shot learning of time series. But they often need good hyper-parameter tuning for best performance. For this good validation is key, but usually, a single validation split is used. In this rather practical contribution we suggest several schemes for cr…
