Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown outstanding performance in the task of semantically segmenting images. However, applying the same methods on 3D data still poses challenges due to the heavy memory requirements and the lack of structured data. Here, we propose LatticeNet, a novel approach for 3D sema…
We outline the theory of sets with distributive operations: multishelves and multispindles, with examples provided by semi-lattices, lattices and skew lattices. For every such a structure we define multi-term distributive homology and show some of its properties. The main result is a complete formula for the homology o…
We give a simple example showing that a knot or link diagram that lies in the Z2 lattice is not necessarily the projection of a lattice stick knot or link in the Z3 lattice, and we give a necessary and sufficient condition for when a knot or link diagram that lies in the Z2 lat…
We explore a simple lattice field model intended to describe statistical properties of high frequency financial markets. The model is relevant in the cross-disciplinary area of econophysics. Its signature feature is the emergence of a self-organized critical state. This implies scale invariance of the model, without tu…
Tropical Geometry and Mathematical Morphology share the same max-plus and min-plus semiring arithmetic and matrix algebra. In this chapter we summarize some of their main ideas and common (geometric and algebraic) structure, generalize and extend both of them using weighted lattices and a max-⋆ algebra with an ar…
We explore hybrid subgroups of certain non-arithmetic lattices in PU(2,1). We show that all of Mostow's lattices are virtually hybrids; moreover, we show that some of these non-arithmetic lattices are hybrids of two non-commensurable arithmetic lattices in PU(1,1).
This paper studies the covolumes of nonuniform arithmetic lattices in PU(n, 1). We determine the smallest covolume nonuniform arithmetic lattices for each n, the number of minimal covolume lattices for each n, and study the growth of the minimal covolume as n varies. In particular, there is a unique lattice (up to conj…
Sequence discriminative training criteria have long been a standard tool in automatic speech recognition for improving the performance of acoustic models over their maximum likelihood / cross entropy trained counterparts. While previously a lattice approximation of the search space has been necessary to reduce computat…
Regular integer lattices are characterized by k unit vectors that build up their generator matrices. These have rank k for D-lattices, and are rank-deficient for A-lattices, for E_6 and E_7. We count lattice points inside hypercubes centered at the origin for all three types, as if classified by maximum infinity norm i…
In this paper we use techniques from convex projective geometry to produce many new examples of thin subgroups of lattices in special linear groups that are isomorphic to the fundamental groups of finite volume hyperbolic manifolds. More specifically, we show that for a large class of arithmetic lattices in SO(n,1) it …
We show that the set of even positive definite lattices that arise from smooth, simply-connected 4-manifolds bounded by a fixed homology 3-sphere can depend on more than the ranks of the lattices. We provide two homology 3-spheres with distinct sets of such lattices, each containing a distinct nonempty subset of the ra…
A celebrated theorem of Hadwiger states that the Euler-Poincaré characteristic is the the unique invariant and continuous valuation on the distributive lattice of compact polyhedra in R^n that assigns value one to each convex non-empty such polyhedron. This paper provides an analogue of Hadwiger's result for finitely p…
The cubic lattice stick index of a knot type is the least number of sticks necessary to construct the knot type in the 3-dimensional cubic lattice. We present the cubic lattice stick index of various knots and links, including all (p,p+1)-torus knots, and show how composing and taking satellites can be used to obtain t…
For a smooth manifold M, possibly with boundary and corners, and a Lie group G, we consider a suitable description of gauge fields in terms of parallel transport, as groupoid homomorphisms from a certain path groupoid in M to G. Using a cotriangulation C of M, and collections of finite-dimensional…
Classifies knots by lattice size, finding unknot ratios and crossing numbers.
problem Understanding the distribution of knots within different lattice sizes.
method Introduced a new knot classification by lattice size, analyzed ratios of unknots and knots with more than 10 crossings, and compared with theoretical estimates.
result Ratio of unknots decreases exponentially with lattice size, and computational results match theoretical estimates.
Let G be a simply connected, solvable Lie group and Γ a lattice in G. The deformation space D(Γ,G) is the orbit space associated to the action of $\Aut(G)$ on the space X(Γ,G) of all lattice embeddings of Γ into G. Our main result generalises the classical rigidity theorems of Mal'tsev…
We study the arithmeticity of the Couwenberg-Heckman-Looijenga lattices in PU(n,1), and show that they contain a non-arithmetic lattice in PU(3,1) which is not commensurable to the non-arithmetic Deligne-Mostow lattice in PU(3,1).
A lattice based method will be presented for numerical investigations of Ricci flow. The method will be applied to the particular case of 2-dimensional axially symmetric initial data on manifolds with S^2 topology. Results will be presented that show that the method works well and agrees with results obtained using con…
