Every infinitely edge-connected graph has a minor of Farey graph or T0tT_{\aleph_0}\ast t.

In this paper we consider minors of ribbon graphs (or, equivalently, cellularly embedded graphs). The theory of minors of ribbon graphs differs from that of graphs in that contracting loops is necessary and doing this can create additional vertices and components. Thus the ribbon graph minor relation is incompatible wi…

Reprint of a 1989 paper including minor corrections of misprints.

Deep Neural Networks are robust to minor perturbations of the learned network parameters and their minor modifications do not change the overall network response significantly. This allows space for model stealing, where a malevolent attacker can steal an already trained network, modify the weights and claim the new ne…

In this paper we study the continuum time dynamics of a stock in a market where agents behavior is modeled by a Minority Game and a Grand Canonical Minority Game. The dynamics derived is a generalized geometric Brownian motion; from the Black & Scholes formula the calibration of both the Minority Game and the Grand Can…

This paper gives a critical account of the minority game literature. The minority game is a simple congestion game: players need to choose between two options, and those who have selected the option chosen by the minority win. The learning model proposed in this literature seems to differ markedly from the learning mod…

The complement of a non-separating planar graph contains a K_n minor.

problem Characterizing the structure of complements of planar graphs.

The paper is partially withdrawn: in its current form, Lemma 2.3 is false, so that our proof of Theorem A and Proposition B has an important gap. We were unable to fix it yet. Any help is most welcome. We prove that the restriction of surface minority to fiber surfaces of divides is a well-quasi-order. Here surface min…

method Simulations and experiments on image datasets, theoretical analysis of linear models.
result Subsampling the majority group can achieve low minority error in overparameterized models.

We introduce the minority game theory for two kinds of the Korean treasury bond (KTB) in Korean futures exchange markets. Since we discuss numerically the standard deviation and the global efficiency for an arbitrary strategy, our case is found to be approximate to the majority game. Our result presented will be compar…

A brief review is given of the minority game, an idealized model stimulated by a market of speculative agents, and its complex many-body behaviour. Particular consideration is given to analytic results for the model rather than discussions of its relevance in real-world situations.
