In studies of smooth maps with good differential topological conditions such as immersions, embeddings, Morse functions and their higher dimensional versions including fold maps and application to geometry, especially algebraic and differential topology of manifolds, liftings or desingulizations of maps of appropriate …
Given a slice regular function f:Ω⊂H→H, with Ω∩R=∅, it is possible to lift it to a surface in the twistor space CP3 of S4≃H∪{∞} (see~\cite{gensalsto}). In this paper we show that the same result is true if one rem…
Despite the recent successes of deep neural networks, the corresponding training problem remains highly non-convex and difficult to optimize. Classes of models have been proposed that introduce greater structure to the objective function at the cost of lifting the dimension of the problem. However, these lifted methods…
We analyze variational inference for highly symmetric graphical models such as those arising from first-order probabilistic models. We first show that for these graphical models, the tree-reweighted variational objective lends itself to a compact lifted formulation which can be solved much more efficiently than the sta…
Using the theory of group action, we first introduce the concept of the automorphism group of an exponential family or a graphical model, thus formalizing the general notion of symmetry of a probabilistic model. This automorphism group provides a precise mathematical framework for lifted inference in the general expone…
We detail the construction of a weak Poisson bracket over a submanifold of a smooth manifold M with respect to a local foliation of this submanifold. Such a bracket satisfies a weak type Jacobi identity but may be viewed as a usual Poisson bracket on the space of leaves of the foliation. We then lift this weak Poisson …
This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain the classical isomorphism between the cotangent bundle of the tangent bundle $T^…
A Reeb space is defined as the space of all the connected components of inverse images of a smooth map, which is a fundamental tool in studying smooth manifolds using generic smooth maps whose codimensions are not positive such as Morse functions, their higher dimensional versions including fold maps and general stable…

problem Lack of principled ways to leverage rescaling symmetries in ReLU neural networks.

In this paper, we define a complete lift for semisprays. If S is a semispray on a manifold M, its complete lift is a new semispray Sc on TM. The motivation for this lift is two-fold: First, geodesics for Sc correspond to the Jacobi fields for S, and second, this complete lift generalizes and unifies previ…
In this paper for a given Banach, possibly infinite dimensional, manifold M we focus on the geometry of its iterated tangent bundle TrM, r∈N∪{∞}. First we endow TrM with a canonical atlas using that of M. Then the concepts of vertical and complete lifts for functions and vector fields on $T^…
In the present paper, we study complete and vertical lifts of tensor fields from a smooth manifold M to its Weil bundle TAM defined by a Frobenius Weil algebra A. For a Poisson manifold (M,w), we show that the complete lift wC and the vertical lift wV of the Poisson tensor w are Poisson tensors on $T^…
We give an explicit description and calculate the dimension of the vector space of linear natural liftings of p-forms on n-dimensional manifolds M to q-forms on TDkrM, where Dkr is the Weil algebra of r-jets at 0 of smooth functions Rk⟶R, for…
In this paper we continue to study equivariant pencil liftings and differential operators on the algebra of densities. We emphasize the role that the geometry of the extended manifold plays. Firstly we consider basic examples. We give a projective line of diff(M)-equivariant pencil liftings for first order operators,…
The canonical trace and the Wodzicki residue on classical pseudodifferential operators on a closed manifold are characterised by their locality and shown to be preserved under lifting to the universal covering as a result of their local feature. As a consequence, we lift a class of spectral ζ-invariants using lifted …
We construct some lift of an almost complex structure to the cotangent bundle, using a connection on the base manifold. This generalizes the complete lift defined by I.Sato and the horizontal lift introduced by K.Yano and S.Ishihara. We study some geometric properties of this lift and its compatibility with symplectic …
In Finsler geometry the complete lift vector fields have distinguished geometric significance. For example a vector field on a Finsler manifold is said to be conformal if its complete lift is conformal in usual sense. In this work we define a new Riemannian or Pseudo-Riemannian metric on TM derived from a Finsler metri…
