New classification of hyperbolic Coxeter prisms.
The use of low-precision fixed-point arithmetic along with stochastic rounding has been proposed as a promising alternative to the commonly used 32-bit floating point arithmetic to enhance training neural networks training in terms of performance and energy efficiency. In the first part of this paper, the behaviour of …
When does the amount of torsion in the homology of an arithmetic group grow exponentially with the covolume? We give many examples where this is so, and conjecture precise conditions.
Low-precision training reduces computational cost and produces efficient models. Recent research in developing new low-precision training algorithms often relies on simulation to empirically evaluate the statistical effects of quantization while avoiding the substantial overhead of building specific hardware. To suppor…

The paper addresses numerical integration issues in SV models, proposing a fast regime switching algorithm.
Deep neural networks (DNN) are powerful models for many pattern recognition tasks, yet their high computational complexity and memory requirement limit them to applications on high-performance computing platforms.

New arithmetic phenomenon 'murmurations' detected using AI.
It is a longstanding problem to determine the precise relationship between the geodesic length spectrum of a hyperbolic manifold and its commensurability class.

The study identifies flat manifolds with unique cusp cross-sections in arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds.
We formulate a conjecture that arithmetic locally symmetric manifolds have simple homotopy type, and prove it for the non-compact case. More precisely, we show that, for any symmetric space S of non-compact type without Euclidean de Rham factors, there are constants a=a(S) and d=d(S) such that any non-compact arithmeti…
The purpose of the paper is to introduce some conjectures regarding the analytic continuation and the arithmetic properties of quantum invariants of knotted objects.

Training of large-scale deep neural networks is often constrained by the available computational resources.

The reduced norm-one group G of a central simple algebra is an inner form of the special linear group, and an involution on the algebra induces an automorphism of G. We study the action of such automorphisms in the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of G. The main result is a precise formula for Lefschetz numbers of au…

We show that the non-arithmetic lattices in PO(n,1) of Belolipetsky and Thomson (2011), obtained as fundamental groups of closed hyperbolic manifolds with short systole, are quasi-arithmetic in the sense of Vinberg, and, by contrast, the well-known non-arithmetic lattices of Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro are not quasi-a…
