Sharp inequality found on three-balls for fourth order Sobolev traces.

In the present paper we study interval identification systems of order three. We prove that the Rauzy induction preserves symmetry: for any symmetric interval identification system of order three after finitely many iterations of the Rauzy induction we always obtain a symmetric system. We also provide an example of sym…

I show that the adjoint variety of the complex special linear group is rigid to order three.

Cayley's (ruled cubic) surface carries a three-parameter family of twisted cubics. We describe the contact of higher order and the dual contact of higher order for these curves and show that there are three exceptional cases.

Abstract: Mapping 3-manifold bordisms to topological orders and domain walls.

New Vassiliev invariant of order three derived from Fox-Hatcher cycles.

The aim of this paper is to develop on the 1-jet space J^1(R,M^3) the Finsler-like geometry (in the sense of distinguished (d-) connection, d-torsions and d-curvatures) of the rheonomic Berwald-Moor metric of order three. Some natural geometrical field theories (gravitational and electromagnetic) produced by the preced…

The book can be divided in three parts: the Lagrange geometry of order $k$, presented in the first three chapters, the geometrical theory of the dual manifolds $T^{*k}M$ - chapters 4-7 and the geometry of Hamilton spaces of order $k$ and their subspaces, contained in the last four chapters. They are studied directly an…

Given a compact three-manifold together with a Riemannian metric, we prove the short-time existence of a solution to the renormalization group flow, truncated at the second order term, under a suitable hypothesis on the sectional curvature of the initial metric.

By refining Matsumoto's construction of Einstein ACH metrics, we construct a one parameter family of ACH metrics which solve the Einstein equation to infinite order and have a given three dimensional CR structure at infinity. When the parameter is 0, the metric is self-dual to infinite order. As an application, we give…

The orbit decomposition is given under the automorphism group on the real split Jordan algebra of all hermitian matrices of order three corresponding to any real split composition algebra, or the automorphism group on the complexification, explicitly, in terms of the cross product of H. Freudenthal and the characterist…

A variational equation of the third order in three-dimensional space is proposed which describes autoparallel curves of some connection.

This paper introduces two virtual knot theory ``analogues'' of a well-known family of invariants for knots in thickened surfaces: the Grishanov-Vassiliev finite-type invariants of order two. The first, called the three loop isotopy invariant, is an invariant of virtual knots while the second, called the three loop fram…

We study the order of tangency between two manifolds of same dimension and give that notion three quite different geometric interpretations. Related aspects of the order of tangency, e.g., regular separation exponents, are also discussed.

We prove that any homogeneous order one solution to 3-d nondivergence elliptic equations must be linear.

The main contribution of our paper is to give a partial classification of the quasi-exactly solvable Lie algebras of first order differential operators in three variables, and to show how this can be applied to the construction of new quasi-exactly solvable Schrödinger operators in three dimensions.

We show that the equivalence problem for three-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds requires at most the fifth covariant derivative of the curvature tensor. We prove that this bound is sharp by exhibiting a class of 3D Lorentzian manifolds which realize this bound. The analysis is based on a three-dimensional analogue of t…

We analyse second order (in Riemann curvature) geometric flows (un-normalised) on locally homogeneous three manifolds and look for specific features through the solutions (analytic whereever possible, otherwise numerical) of the evolution equations. Several novelties appear in the context of scale factor evolution, fix…

We characterize Lorentzian three-dimensional hyper-CR Einstein-Weyl structures in terms of invariants of the associated third order ordinary differential equations.

A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of a conformal metric on 2-sphere of constant curvature 1 and with three conical singularities of prescribed order is given.

Ng and Schauenburg proved that the kernel of a $(2+1)$-dimensional topological quantum field theory representation of $\mathrm{SL}(2, \mathbb{Z})$ is a congruence subgroup. Motivated by their result, we explore when the kernel of an irreducible representation of the braid group $B_3$ with finite image enjoys a congruen…

We address the problem of local geometry of third order ODEs modulo contact, point and fibre-preserving transformations of variables. Several new and already known geometries are described in a uniform manner by the Cartan method of equivalence. This includes conformal, Weyl and metric geometries in three and six dimen…

Three functors link Lorentzian geometry concepts.

New findings on generating mapping class groups of nonorientable surfaces.

We show that the mapping class group of a closed oriented surface of genus at least three is generated by 3 elements of order 3 and by 4 elements of order 4. Note that the mapping class group cannot be generated by finitely many torsion elements of same order if genus is equal to one or two.

We give a full classification of higher order parallel surfaces in three-dimensional homogeneous spaces with four-dimensional isometry group, i.e. in the so-called Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu family. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture formulated in 2002. As a partial result, we prove that totally umbilical surfa…

Manolescu correction terms are numerical invariants of homology three-spheres arising from $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-equivariant Seiberg-Witten theory that contain information about homology cobordism. We discuss several constraints on these invariants for homology spheres obtained by Dehn surgery on a knot in the three-sphere…

A general approach to formulation of supergravity in higher order anisotropic superspaces (containing as particular cases different supersymmetric extensions and prolongations of Riemann, Finsler, Lagrange and Kaluza--Klein spaces) is given. We analyze three models of locally anisotropic supergravity.

Forecasting the movements of stock prices is one the most challenging problems in financial markets analysis. In this paper, we use Machine Learning (ML) algorithms for the prediction of future price movements using limit order book data. Two different sets of features are combined and evaluated: handcrafted features b…

We compute the Betti numbers and describe the cohomology algebras of the ordered and unordered configuration spaces of three points in complex projective spaces, including the infinite dimensional case. We also compute these invariants for the configuration spaces of three collinear and non-collinear points.

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $G$ the finite cyclic group of order $p$. We use the Casson-Walker-Lescop invariant to find a necessary condition for a three-manifold to have an action of $G$ with a circle as the set of fixed points.

It is well known that Cayley's ruled cubic surface carries a three-parameter family of twisted cubics sharing a common point, with the same tangent and the same osculating plane. We report on various results and open problems with respect to contact of higher order and dual contact of higher order for these curves.

The unique third-order invariant variational equation in three-dimensional (pseudo)Euclidean space is derived.

We give an explicit formula for the projectively invariant quantization map between the space of symbols of degree three and the space of third-order linear differential operators, both viewed as modules over the group of diffeomorphisms and the Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold.

We give a simple proof of a result originally due to Dimca and Suciu: a group that is both Kaehler and the fundamental group of a closed three-manifold is finite. We also prove that a group that is both the fundamental group of a closed three-manifold and of a non-Kaehler compact complex surface is infinite cyclic or t…

In this paper we develop a model of an order-driven market where traders set bids and asks and post market or limit orders according to exogenously fixed rules. Agents are assumed to have three components to the expectation of future asset returns, namely-fundamentalist, chartist and noise trader. Furthermore agents di…

In order to simulate the complex phenomena manifested in stock markets, we introduce a continuous asynchronous model in which millions of individual traders interact through a central orders matching mechanism, just as it happens in real stock markets. Each trader has a unique decision function, which allows him/ her t…

We show that for any $k$ at least $6$ and $g$ sufficiently large, the mapping class group of a surface of genus $g$ can be generated by three elements of order $k$. We also show that this can be done with four elements of order $5$. We additionally prove similar results for some permutation groups, linear groups, and a…

For CR structures in dimension three, the CR pluriharmonic functions are characterized by the vanishing of a third order operator. This third order operator, after composition with the divergence operator, gives the fourth order analogue of the Paneitz operator. In this short note, we give criteria under which the kern…

We decompose the squared price-of-risk premium into three components: intervention-stable premium, confounding wedge, and information loss.

Let $Y$ be a closed, connected, orientable three-manifold admitting a genus one open book decomposition with one boundary component. We prove that if $Y$ is an L-space, then the fundamental group of $Y$ is not left-orderable. This answers a question posed by John Baldwin.

We present another proof of the sharp inequality for Paneitz operator on the standard three sphere, in the spirit of subcritical approximation for the classical Yamabe problem. To solve the perturbed problem, we use a symmetrization process which only works for extremal functions. This gives a new example of symmetriza…

We construct four-dimensional symplectic cobordisms between contact three-manifolds generalizing an example of Eliashberg. One key feature is that any handlebody decomposition of one of these cobordisms must involve three-handles. The other key feature is that these cobordisms contain chains of symplectically embedded …

We classify connected sums of three-dimensional lens spaces which smoothly bound rational homology balls. We use this result to determine the order of each lens space in the group of rational homology 3-spheres up to rational homology cobordisms, and to determine the concordance order of each 2-bridge knot.

3D topological order linked to Seifert manifolds and gauge groups.

The book explores essential stats and psychology for quantitative trading.

$\mathcal{I}$-non-degenerate spaces are spacetimes that can be characterized uniquely by their scalar curvature invariants. The ultimate goal of the current work is to construct a basis for the scalar polynomial curvature invariants in three dimensional Lorentzian spacetimes. In particular, we seek a minimal set of alg…

We introduce a geometric invariant of knots in the three-sphere, called the first-order genus, that is derived from certain 2-complexes called gropes, and we show it is computable for many examples. While computing this invariant, we draw some interesting conclusions about the structure of a general Seifert surface for…
