We show that some ternary quasigroups appear naturally as invariants of classical links and links on surfaces. We also note how to obtain from them invariants of Yoshikawa moves. In our previous paper, we defined homology theory for algebras satisfying two axioms derived from the third Reidemeister move. In this paper,…

We define homology of ternary algebras satisfying axioms derived from particle scattering or, equivalently, from the third Reidemeister move. We show that ternary quasigroups satisfying these axioms appear naturally in invariants of Reidemeister, Yoshikawa, and Roseman moves. Our homology has a degenerate subcomplex. T…

We inductively define layers of colorings of knot and knotted surface diagrams using ternary quasigroups. Homological invariants from such systems of colorings use shorter differentials and of higher degree than the standard homology differentials, and give access to typically more complex homology groups.

The paper describes topological properties of arcs and crossings in knot theory.

Study initiates homology theory for Bol-Moufang quasigroups.

We characterize the para-associative ternary quasigroups (flocks) applicable to knot theory, and show which of these structures are isomorphic. We enumerate them up to order 64. We note that the operation used in knot-theoretic flocks has its non-associative version in extra loops. We use a group action on the set of f…

The paper classifies palettes of Dehn colorings for spatial graphs.

Given a shadow biquandle $(B,X)$ composed of a biquandle $B$ and a strongly connected $B$-set $X$, we have a local biquandle structure on $X$. The (co)homology groups of such shadow biquandles are isomorphic to those of the corresponding local biquandles. Moreover, cocycle invariants, of oriented links and oriented sur…

This paper develops graph theory for racks and quasigroups.

Distributivity in algebraic structures appeared in many contexts such as in quasigroup theory, semigroup theory and algebraic knot theory. In this paper we give a survey of distributivity in quasigroup theory and in quandle theory.

It is a classical result in reduced homology of finite groups that the order of a group annihilates its homology. Similarly, we have proved that the torsion subgroup of rack and quandle homology of a finite quasigroup quandle is annihilated by its order. However, it does not hold for connected quandles in general. In t…

Study examines null vector fields on Lorentzian manifolds.

The paper extends ternary algebra concepts using cube roots of unity.

We define a homology for ternary groups using both associativity and skew elements. We describe the odd-even construction which yields many examples of ternary groups. We define the ternary knot group, consider its homomorphisms into ternary groups, and discuss the applications.

We prove that if Q is a finite quasigroup quandle, then |Q| annihilates the torsion of its homology. It is a classical result in reduced homology of finite groups that the order of a group annihilates its homology. From the very beginning of the rack homology (between 1990 and 1995) the analogous result was suspected. …

We describe various properties and give several characterizations of ternary groups satisfying two axioms derived from the third Reidemeister move in knot theory. Using special attributes of such ternary groups, such as semi-commutativity, we construct a ternary invariant of curves immersed in compact surfaces, conside…

Novel ternary structures reveal new interpretations of linear connections.

We introduce a notion of ternary distributive algebraic structure, give examples, and relate it to the notion of a quandle. Classification is given for low order structures of this type. Constructions of such structures from ternary bialgebras are provided. We also describe ternary distributive algebraic structures com…

We introduce \textit{Niebrzydowski algebras}, algebraic structures with a ternary operation and a partially defined multiplication, with axioms motivated by the Reidemeister moves for $Y$-oriented trivalent spatial graphs and handlebody-links. As part of this definition, we identify generating sets of $Y$-oriented Reid…

Introduces Lie semiheaps and their relation to Lie groups and bundles.

Heaps are para-associative ternary operations bijectively exemplified by groups via the operation $(x,y,z) \mapsto x y^{-1} z$. They are also ternary self-distributive, and have a diagrammatic interpretation in terms of framed links. Motivated by these properties, we define para-associative and heap cohomology theories…

New algebraic structure for vector bundles with special properties.

The paper constructs new algebraic structures from Lie algebras and ternary Nambu-Lie algebras, leading to Yang-Baxter operators.

Study of SO(3)-irreducible geometry in complex 5D and ternary Pauli exclusion principle.

We introduce a way to color the regions of a classical knot diagram using ternary operations, so that the number of colorings is a knot invariant. By choosing appropriate substitutions in the algebras that we assign to diagrams, one obtains the relations from the knot group, and from the core group. Using the ternary o…

EC2T creates sparse and ternary neural networks for resource-constrained devices.

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have shown excellent performance in processing sequence data. However, they are both complex and memory intensive due to their recursive nature. These limitations make RNNs difficult to embed on mobile devices requiring real-time processes with limited hardware resources. To address the…

MobileNets family of computer vision neural networks have fueled tremendous progress in the design and organization of resource-efficient architectures in recent years. New applications with stringent real-time requirements on highly constrained devices require further compression of MobileNets-like already compute-eff…

Unified cosmological and Einstein polytope theories.

Neural network models are resource hungry. It is difficult to deploy such deep networks on devices with limited resources, like smart wearables, cellphones, drones, and autonomous vehicles. Low bit quantization such as binary and ternary quantization is a common approach to alleviate this resource requirements. Ternary…

New inequality for ternary variables improves on existing measures.

Compressed sensing (CS) is a sampling theory that allows reconstruction of sparse (or compressible) signals from an incomplete number of measurements, using of a sensing mechanism implemented by an appropriate projection matrix. The CS theory is based on random Gaussian projection matrices, which satisfy recovery guara…

Selective classification improves trading strategies by abstaining from predictions.

The group of $\mathcal C^1$-diffeomorphisms of any sparse Cantor subset of a manifold is countable and discrete (possibly trivial). Thompson's groups come out of this construction when we consider central ternary Cantor subsets of an interval. Brin's higher dimensional generalizations $nV$ of Thompson's group $V$ arise…

The use of deep neural networks in edge computing devices hinges on the balance between accuracy and complexity of computations. Ternary Connect (TC) \cite{lin2015neural} addresses this issue by restricting the parameters to three levels $-1, 0$, and $+1$, thus eliminating multiplications in the forward pass of the net…

W. Rump showed that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between involutive right non-degenerate solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and Rump right quasigroups. J. S. Carter, M. Elhamdadi, and M. Saito, meanwhile, introduced a homology theory of set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in order to defi…

Recent breakthroughs in computer vision make use of large deep neural networks, utilizing the substantial speedup offered by GPUs. For applications running on limited hardware, however, high precision real-time processing can still be a challenge. One approach to solving this problem is training networks with binary or…
