Study fractional structures on bundle gerbe modules using rational homotopy theory.

Neural Module Networks, originally proposed for the task of visual question answering, are a class of neural network architectures that involve human-specified neural modules, each designed for a specific form of reasoning. In current formulations of such networks only the parameters of the neural modules and/or the or…

Study quandle modules over geometric quandles and their relation to Lie-Yamaguti representations.

We study a module structure on Khovanov homology, which we show is natural under the Ozsvath-Szabo spectral sequence to the Floer homology of the branched double cover. As an application, we show that this module structure detects trivial links. A key ingredient of our proof is that the H_1/Torsion module structure on …

Methods for learning Bayesian network structure can discover dependency structure between observed variables, and have been shown to be useful in many applications. However, in domains that involve a large number of variables, the space of possible network structures is enormous, making it difficult, for both computati…

Paper disproves a theorem about Kauffman bracket skein module structure.

Holomorphic structures on quantum flag manifolds uniquely defined.

For a Lie-Rinehart algebra (A,L), generators for the Gerstenhaber algebra Λ_A L correspond bijectively to right (A,L)-connections on A in such a way that B-V structures correspond to right (A,L)-module structures on A. When L is projective as an A-module, given an exact generator \partial, the homology of the B-V algeb…

A new method to derive presentations of skein modules is developed. For the case of homotopy skein modules it will be shown how the topology of a 3-manifold is reflected in the structure of the module. The freeness problem for q-homotopy skein modules is solved, and a natural skein module related to linking numbers is …

We define 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbes related to general Lie 2-crossed modules and discuss their properties. A 2-crossed module bundle 2-gerbe over a manifold is defined in terms of a so called 2-crossed module bundle gerbe, which is a crossed module bundle gerbe equipped with an extra sructure. It is shown that s…

A standard technique for understanding underlying dependency structures among a set of variables posits a shared conditional probability distribution for the variables measured on individuals within a group. This approach is often referred to as module networks, where individuals are represented by nodes in a network, …

We characterize the first Alexander Z[Z]-modules of ribbon surface-links in the 4-sphere fixing the number of components and the total genus, and then the first Alexander Z[Z]-modules of surface-links in the 4-sphere fixing the number of components. Using the result of ribbon torus-links, we also characterize the first…

We show that the Kauffman bracket skein module of a cylinder over the torus embeds as a subalgebra of the noncommutative torus. Using this we derive nice formulas for the Jones-Wenzl idempotents and analyze the structure of the Kauffman bracket skein module of the unknot as a module over the Kauffman bracket skein modu…

Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold of signature $(p,q)$. We construct mutually quasi-inverse equivalences between the groupoid of bundles of weakly-faithful complex Clifford modules on $(M,g)$ and the groupoid of reduced complex Lipschitz structures on $(M,g)$. As an application, we show that $(M,g)$ admits a …

The goal of this work is to study the ideals of the Goldman Lie algebra $S$. To do so, we construct an algebra homomorphism from $S$ to a simpler algebraic structure, and focus on finding ideals of this new structure instead. The structure $S$ can be regarded as either a $\mathbb{Q}$-module or a $\mathbb{Q}$-module gen…

The paper extends von Neumann's theory to normed modules and shows how they can be represented.

Learn to automatically plug domain-specific modules into a common network.

Extending ideas of Hedden-Ni, we show that the module structure on Khovanov homology detects split links. We also prove an analogue for untwisted Heegaard Floer homology of the branched double cover. Technical results proved along the way include two interpretations of the module structure on untwisted Heegaard Floer h…

This paper generalizes L2 cohomology theory for complex manifolds.

In this paper, we study the module structure of the homology of Artin kernels, i.e., kernels of non-resonant characters from right-angled Artin groups onto the integer numbers, the module structure being with respect to the ring $\mathbb{K}[t^{\pm 1}]$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is a field of characteristic zero. Papadima and…

Researchers solved a conjecture about a mathematical structure of connected sums of solid tori.

We introduce a new skein module for three manifolds based on properly embedded surfaces and their relations introduced by D.Bar-Natan, and modified by M.Khovanov. We compute the structure of the modules for some manifolds, including Seifert fibred manifolds.

This thesis generalizes structures on $\mathcal{Q}$-manifolds and Lie $n$-algebroids.

In this paper we interpret the integrability of the Dirac structures on some Hilbert C*-modules in terms of an automorphism group. This is the group of orthogonal transformations on the Hilbert C*-module of sections of a Hermitian vector bundle over an smooth manifold M. Some topological properties of the group of inte…

Combinatorial approach to compute satellite knot invariants using graph theory.

We study the asymptotic behaviour of tame harmonic bundles. First of all, we prove a local freeness of the prolongation by an increasing order. Then we obtain the polarized mixed twistor structure. As one of the applications, we obtain the norm estimate of holomorphic or flat sections by weight filtrations of the monod…

The classical abelian invariants of a knot are the Alexander module, which is the first homology group of the the unique infinite cyclic covering space of S^3-K, considered as a module over the (commutative) Laurent polynomial ring, and the Blanchfield linking pairing defined on this module. From the perspective of the…

This paper upgrades Khovanov homology to an L-infinity module structure.

Algebra Situs is a branch of mathematics which has its roots in Jones' construction of his polynomial invariant of links and Drinfeld's work on quantum groups. It encompasses the theory of quantum invariants of knots and 3-manifolds, algebraic topology based on knots, operads, planar algebras, q-deformations, quantum g…

This paper studies differential graded modules and representations up to homotopy of Lie $n$-algebroids, for general $n\in\mathbb{N}$. The adjoint and coadjoint modules are described, and the corresponding split versions of the adjoint and coadjoint representations up to homotopy are explained. In particular, the case …

Develops graphical calculus for monoidal categories with twisted pivotal structures.

The aim of this note is to introduce the notion of a $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra and to prove some elementary properties of $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebras, the category of $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebras, the category of modules on a $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra and extensions of $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebras. …

An algebraic system is proposed that represent surface cobordisms in thickened surfaces. Module and comodule structures over Frobenius algebras are used for representing essential curves. The proposed structure gives a unified algebraic view of states of categorified Jones polynomials in thickened surfaces and virtual …

We consider the Lie algebra of all vector fields on a contact manifold as a module over the Lie subalgebra of contact vector fields. This module is split into a direct sum of two submodules: the contact algebra itself and the space of tangent vector fields. We study the geometric nature of these two modules.

The geometry of nonholonomic bundle gerbes, provided with nonlinear connection structure, and nonholonomic gerbe modules is elaborated as the theory of Clifford modules on nonholonomic manifolds which positively fail to be spin. We explore an approach to such nonholonomic Dirac operators and derive the related Atiyah-S…

Introduces modular $q$-holonomic modules to solve $q$-difference equations.

Birack modules are modules over an algebra Z[X] associated to a finite birack X. In previous work, birack module structures on Z mod n were used to enhance the birack counting invariant. In this paper, we use birack modules over Laurent polynomial rings Z_n[q,1/q] to enhance the birack counting invariant, defining a cu…

The van Est map is a map from Lie groupoid cohomology (with respect to a sheaf taking values in a representation) to Lie algebroid cohomology. We generalize the van Est map to allow for more general sheaves, namely to sheaves of sections taking values in a (smooth or holomorphic) $G$-module, where $G$-modules are struc…

We discuss nonabelian bundle gerbes and their differential geometry using simplicial methods. Associated to any crossed module there is a simplicial group NC, the nerve of the 1-category defined by the crossed module and its geometric realization |NC|. Equivalence classes of principal bundles with structure group |NC| …
