Study symplectic embeddings of 4-manifolds using Lefschetz fibrations.

Thurston related $\mathbb{C}{\rm P}^1$-structures (complex projective structures) and equivariant pleated surfaces in the hyperbolic-three space $\mathbb{H}^3$, in order to give a parameterization of the deformation space of $\mathbb{C}{\rm P}^1$-structures. In this note, we summarize Thurston's parametrization of $\ma…

We study quotients $Γ\backslash \mathbb H^n$ of the $n$-fold product of the upper half plane $\mathbb H$ by irreducible and torsion-free lattices $Γ< PSL_2(\mathbb R)^n$ with the same Betti numbers as the $n$-fold product $(\mathbb P^1)^n$ of projective lines. Such varieties are called fake products of projective lines…

Let $M$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of compact type, and let $ω$ be its Kähler form. For a triplet $(p_1,p_2,p_3)$ of points in $M$ we study conditions under which a geodesic triangle $\mathcal T(p_1,p_2,p_3)$ with vertices $p_1,p_2,p_3$ can be unambiguously defined. We consider the integral $A(p_1,p_2,…

New algorithm reduces memory-regret trade-off for bandits.

We describe a presentation for the augmented fundamental rack of a link in the lens space $L(p,1)$. Using this presentation, the (enhanced) counting rack invariants that have been defined for the classical links are applied to the links in $L(p,1)$. In this case, the counting rack invariants also include the informatio…

Formula derived for spherical growth series of specific groups.

We study relations between reflections in (positive or negative) points in the complex hyperbolic plane. It is easy to see that the reflections in the points q_1,q_2 obtained from p_1,p_2 by moving p_1,p_2 along the geodesic generated by p_1,p_2 and keeping the (dis)tance between p_1,p_2 satisfy the bending relation R(…

For operators on a compact manifold $X$ with boundary $\partial X$, the basic zeta coefficient $C_0(B, P_{1,T})$ is the regular value at $s=0$ of the zeta function $\Tr(B P_{1,T}^{-s})$, where $B=P_++G$ is a pseudodifferential boundary operator (in the Boutet de Monvel calculus) -- for example the solution operator of …

We give explicit formulas for the intertwinors on the differential form bundles over $S^{p-1} \times S^{q-1}$ with the standard pseudo-Riemannian metric $g=-g_{{}_{S^{p-1}}}+g_{{}_{S^{q-1}}}$ of signature $(p-1,q-1)$. As a special case, we construct conformally invariant differential operators of all even orders.

Estimates covariance matrices for matrix-variate data via core covariance geometry.

We test the 3d-3d correspondence for theories that are labelled by Lens spaces. We find a full agreement between the index of the 3d ${\cal N}=2$ "Lens space theory" $T[L(p,1)]$ and the partition function of complex Chern-Simons theory on $L(p,1)$. In particular, for $p=1$, we show how the familiar $S^3$ partition func…

The loop space $L\mathbb{P}_1$ of the Riemann sphere consisting of all $C^k$ or Sobolev $W^{k,p}$ maps from the circle $S^1$ to $\mathbb{P}_1$ is an infinite dimensional complex manifold. The loop group $LPGL(2,\mathbb{C})$ acts on $L\mathbb{P}_1$ . We prove that the group of $LPGL(2,\mathbb{C})$ invariant holomorphic …

Let $p$ be a branched covering of a Riemann surface to the Riemann sphere $\mathbb{P}^1$, with branching set $B \subset \mathbb{P}^1$. We define the complexity of $p$ as infinity, if $\mathbb{P}^1 \setminus B$ does not admit a hyperbolic structure, or the product of its degree and the hyperbolic area of $\mathbb{P}^1 \…

During a speculative episode the price of an item jumps from an initial level p_1 to a peak level p_2 before more or less returning to level p_1. The ratio p_2/p_1 is referred to as the amplitude A of the peak. This paper shows that for a given market the peak amplitude is a linear function of the logarithm of the pric…

In this paper we present recent results toward the computation of the HOMFLYPT skein module of the lens spaces $L(p,1)$, $\mathcal{S}\left(L(p,1) \right)$, via braids. Our starting point is the knot theory of the solid torus ST and the Lambropoulou invariant, $X$, for knots and links in ST, the universal analogue of th…

The Schatten-$p$ norm ($0<p<1$) has been widely used to replace the nuclear norm for better approximating the rank function. However, existing methods are either 1) not scalable for large scale problems due to relying on singular value decomposition (SVD) in every iteration, or 2) specific to some $p$ values, e.g., $1/…

Motivated by the work of Abreu and Freitas, we study the invariant spectrum of the Laplace operator associated to hermitian line bundles endowed with invariant metrics over $\mathbb{p}^1$.

Let $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ be a Kähler manifold obtained by blowing up a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ along a line $\mathbb{P}^1$. We prove that $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ does not admit constant scalar curvature Kähler metrics in any rational Kähler class, but admits extremal m…

Using 3-Sasakian reduction techniques we obtain infinite families of new 3-Sasakian manifolds $\scriptstyle{{\cal M}(p_1,p_2,p_3)}$ and $\scriptstyle{{\cal M}(p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4)}$ in dimension 11 and 15 respectively. The metric cone on $\scriptstyle{{\cal M}(p_1,p_2,p_3)}$ is a generalization of the Kronheimer hyperkähle…

Let ${\cal F}_λ$ be the space of tensor densities on ${\bf R}^n$ of degree $λ$ (or, equivalently, of conformal densities of degree $-λn$) considered as a module over the Lie algebra $so(p+1,q+1)$. We classify $so(p+1,q+1)$-invariant bilinear differential operators from ${\cal F}_λ\otimes{\cal F}_μ$ to~${\cal F}_ν$. The…

The invariant $Θ$ is an invariant of rational homology 3-spheres $M$ equipped with a combing $X$ over the complement of a point. It is related to the Casson-Walker invariant $λ$ by the formula $Θ(M,X)=6λ(M)+p_1(X)/4$, where $p_1$ is an invariant of combings that is simply related to a Gompf invariant. In [arXiv:1209.32…

In this paper we work toward the Homflypt skein module of the lens spaces $L(p,1)$, $\mathcal{S}(L(p,1))$, using braids. In particular, we establish the connection between $\mathcal{S}({\rm ST})$, the Homflypt skein module of the solid torus ST, and $\mathcal{S}(L(p,1))$ and arrive at an infinite system, whose solution…

We study the cameral and spectral data for the moduli space of polystable $\mathrm{SU}(p+1,p)$-Higgs bundles and deduce the latter from the former. As an application, we obtain that the Toledo invariant classifies the connected components of the regular fibers of the Hitchin map.

We prove the following version of Poincare duality for reduced $L_{q,p}$-cohomology: For any $1<q,p<\infty$, the $L_{q,p}$-cohomology of a Riemannian manifold is in duality with the interior $L_{p',q'}-cohomology for$1/p+1/p'=1$,$1/q+1/q'=1$.

We describe natural Kähler or para-Kähler structures of the spaces of geodesics of pseudo-Riemannian space forms and relate the local geometry of hypersurfaces of space forms to that of their normal congruences, or Gauss maps, which are Lagrangian submanifolds. The space of geodesics L(S^{n+1}_{p,1}) of a pseudo-Rieman…

The $L^p$-cosine transform of an even, continuous function $f\in C_e(\Sn)$ is defined by: $$H(x)=\int_{\Sn}|\ip{x}ξ|^pf(ξ) dξ,\quad x\in {\R}^n.$$ It is shown that if $p$ is not an even integer then all partial derivatives of even order of $H(x)$ up to order $p+1$ (including $p+1$ if $p$ is an odd integer) exist and ar…

Given a compact Kahler manifold with an extremal metric (M,ω), we give sufficient conditions on finite sets points p_1,...,p_n and weights a_1,...a_n for which the blow up of M at p_1,...,p_n has an extremal metric in the Kahler class π^*[ω] - ε(a_1 PD[E_1] + .. + a_n PD[E_n]) for all εsufficiently small. In particular…

We study possible real structures in the space of solutions to the quantum differential equation. We show that, under mild conditions, a real structure in orbifold quantum cohomology yields a pure and polarized tt^*-geometry near the large radius limit. We compute an example of P^1 which is pure and polarized over the …

In this note, we investigate the well-known Yau rigidity theorem for minimal submanifolds in spheres. Using the parameter method of Yau and the DDVV inequality verified by Lu, Ge and Tang, we prove that if $M$ is an $n$-dimensional oriented compact minimal submanifold in the unit sphere $S^{n+p}(1)$, and if $K_{M}\geq\…

In this paper, we introduce the $L_p$ geominimal surface area for all $-n\neq p<1$, which extends the classical geominimal surface area ($p=1$) by Petty and the $L_p$ geominimal surface area by Lutwak ($p>1$). Our extension of the $L_p$ geominimal surface area is motivated by recent work on the extension of the $L_p$ a…
