New method uses patchworking to represent oriented matroids.
New Alexandrov-Patchwork construction for Lorentzian spaces with curvature bounds.
Cluster Quilting clusters fragmented data sets for neuroscience and genomics.
A cumbersome hypothesis for Viro patchworking of real algebraic curves is the convexity of the given subdivision. It is an open question in general to know whether the convexity is necessary. In the case of trigonal curves we interpret Viro method in terms of dessins d'enfants. Gluing the dessins d'enfants in a coheren…
New method for constructing real algebraic surfaces from complex tropical hypersurfaces.
Paper proposes a copula method to generate unfavorable VaR scenarios.
The divergence theorem in its usual form applies only to suitably smooth vector fields. For vector fields which are merely piecewise smooth, as is natural at a boundary between regions with different physical properties, one must patch together the divergence theorem applied separately in each region. We give an elegan…
In this article we focus on the study of special parabolic points in surfaces arising as graphs of polynomials, we give a theorem of Viro's patchworking type to build families of real polynomials in two variables with a prescribed number of special parabolic points in their graphs. We use this result to build a family …
This friendly introduction to tropical geometry is meant to be accessible to first year students in mathematics. The topics discussed here are basic tropical algebra, tropical plane curves, some tropical intersections, and Viro's patchworking. Each definition is explained with concrete examples and illustrations. To a …
We complete the topological classification of real algebraic non-singular curves of bidegree on the quadric ellipsoid. We show in particular that previously known restrictions form a complete system for this bidegree. Therefore, the main part of the paper concerns the construction of real algebraic curves. Our…
Formula for Laplacian determinants on polygonal domains with slits.
Supercyclides are surfaces with a characteristic conjugate parametrization consisting of two families of conics. Patches of supercyclides can be adapted to a Q-net (a discrete quadrilateral net with planar faces) such that neighboring surface patches share tangent planes along common boundary curves. We call the result…
The paper shows averaging gradients leads to memorization, proposing an alternative algorithm to focus on invariances.
Doctors often rely on their past experience in order to diagnose patients. For a doctor with enough experience, almost every patient would have similarities to key cases seen in the past, and each new patient could be viewed as a mixture of these key past cases. Because doctors often tend to reason this way, an efficie…
This text is intended to become in the long run Chapter 3 of our long saga dedicated to Riemann, Ahlfors and Rohlin. Yet, as its contents evolved as mostly independent (due to our inaptitude to interconnect both trends as strongly as we wished), it seemed preferable to publish it separately. More factually, our account…
This paper presents a new approach for Gaussian process (GP) regression for large datasets. The approach involves partitioning the regression input domain into multiple local regions with a different local GP model fitted in each region. Unlike existing local partitioned GP approaches, we introduce a technique for patc…
