Paper compares topological and pro-étale fundamental groups.

We completely describe the finitely generated pro-$p$ subgroups of the profinite completion of the fundamental group of an arbitrary $3$-manifold. We also prove a pro-$p$ analogue of the main theorem of Bass--Serre theory for finitely generated pro-$p$ groups.

We classify pro-$p$ Poincaré duality pairs in dimension two. We then use this classification to build a pro-$p$ analogue of the curve complex and establish its basic properties. We conclude with some statements concerning separability properties of the mapping class group.

Study subgroups of pro-$p$ PD^3 groups, finding specific conditions.

Although reinforcement learning (RL) can provide reliable solutions in many settings, practitioners are often wary of the discrepancies between the RL solution and their status quo procedures. Therefore, they may be reluctant to adapt to the novel way of executing tasks proposed by RL. On the other hand, many real-worl…

Fix a prime number ell. In this paper we develop the theory of relative pro-ell completion of discrete and profinite groups -- a natural generalization of the classical notion of pro-ell completion -- and show that the pro-ell completion of the Torelli group does not inject into the relative pro-ell completion of the c…

Study pro-$p$ completions of orientable PD_n groups, proving best results in three cases.

Since the introduction of risk-based solvency regulation, pro-cyclicality has been a subject of concerns from all market participants. Here, we lay down a methodology to evaluate the amount of pro-cyclicality in the way finnancial institutions measure risk, and identify factors explaining this pro-cyclical behavior. We…

New representation for braid groups and surface braid groups, extending Lawrence-Krammer-Bigelow.

The Burde--de Rham theorem is extended to finitely presented pro-$p$ groups with specific conditions.

We describe the submission of the Quo Vadis team to the Traffic4cast competition, which was organized as part of the NeurIPS 2019 series of challenges. Our system consists of a temporal regression module, implemented as $1\times1$ 2d convolutions, augmented with spatio-temporal biases. We have found that using biases i…

Khovanov homology for pro-tangles and spectral sequences

Arithmetic topology connects surface and $p$-adic field studies, enabling new insights into Galois groups.

The paper addresses fairness in machine learning models through structural econometrics, projecting indexes into null spaces to find fair solutions.

Let G be a lattice in PSL(2,C). The pro-normal topology on G is defined by taking all cosets of non-trivial normal subgroups as a basis. This topology is finer than the pro-finite topology, but it is not discrete. We prove that every finitely generated subgroup H<G is closed in the pro-normal topology. As a corollary w…

LLM Pro Finance Suite enhances financial NLP with instruction-tuned models.

Reasoning models outperform LLMs on CFA exams.

This summarizes the study of the financial and economic crisis in Europe. The starting questions were: 1) Why do we have a crisis? Unde venis? 2) What will be the outcome? Quo vadis? Here is the reasoning which touches many areas, ranging from financial to politics and from psychology and economy.

Study of Tannakian categories for integrable connections on Kaehler manifolds.

Groups with similar pro-$p$ completions have two-generated subgroups that are free.

In 1992, David Wright proved a remarkable theorem about which contractible open manifolds are covering spaces. He showed that if a one-ended open manifold M has pro-monomorphic fundamental group at infinity which is not pro-trivial and is not stably Z, then M does not cover any manifold (except itself). In the non-mani…

We construct aspherical closed orientable 5-manifolds with perfect fundamental group. This completes part of our study (with D.H.Kochloukova and I.Lima) of $PD_n$-groups with pro-$p$ completion a pro-$p$ Poincaré duality group of dimension $\leq{n-2}$. We also consider the question of whether there are any examples wit…

For a link $L$ in the 3-sphere and for a prime $p$, we express the $p$-primary information on the first homology group of $p^{m}$-fold branched covers of $L$ in terms of its $p$-adic Milnor higher linking invariants, using the completed Alexander module of the pro-$p$ completion of the link group of $L$.

Wright showed that, if a 1-ended simply connected locally compact ANR Y with pro-monomorphic fundamental group at infinity admits a proper Z-action, then that fundamental group at infinity can be represented by an inverse sequence of finitely generated free groups. Geoghegan and Guilbault strengthened that result, prov…

CFR-Pro enhances treatment effect estimation by incorporating local proximity.

We propose an approach to study non-Abelian Iwasawa theory, using the idea of Johnson homomorphisms in low dimensional topology. We introduce arithmetic analogues of Johnson homomorphisms/maps, called the p-Johnson homomorphisms/maps, associated to the Zassenhaus filtration of a pro-p Galois group over a Z_p-extension …

Given a three-manifold with b_1=1 and a nontorsion spin^c structure, we use finite dimensional approximation to construct from the Seiberg-Witten equations two invariants in the form of a periodic pro-spectra. Various functors applied to these invariants give different flavors of Seiberg-Witten Floer homology. We also …

Introduces arithmetic analogues of Orr invariants and spaces for absolute Galois groups.

Survey on algebraic fibers of group extensions and their finiteness properties.

In the preceding paper, Calegari and Dunfield exhibit a sequence of hyperbolic 3-manifolds which have increasing injectivity radius, and which, subject to some conjectures in number theory, are rational homology spheres. We prove unconditionally that these manifolds are rational homology spheres, and give a sufficient …

In this paper we prove that RAAGs are distinguished from each other by their pro-$p$ completions for any choice of prime $p$, and that RACGs are distinguished from each other by their pro-2 completions. We also give a new proof that hyperbolic virtually special groups are good in the sense of Serre. Furthermore we give…

We prove that the profinite completion of the fundamental group of a compact 3-manifold $M$ satisfies a Tits alternative: if a closed subgroup $H$ does not contain a free pro-$p$ subgroup for any $p$, then $H$ is virtually soluble, and furthermore of a very particular form. In particular, the profinite completion of th…

Pro-GNN defends graph neural networks from adversarial attacks by learning graph structure.

As machine learning (ML) models, trained on real-world datasets, become common practice, it is critical to measure and quantify their potential biases. In this paper, we focus on renal failure and compare a commonly used traditional risk score, Tangri, with a more powerful machine learning model, which has access to a …

In this paper, we develop a geometric procedure for producing a reverse to Quillen's plus construction, a construction called a 1-sided h-cobordism or semi-h-cobordism. We then use this reverse to the plus construction to produce uncountably many distinct ends of manifolds called pseudo-collars, which are stackings of …

We answer a question of Aschenbrenner and Friedl regarding virtual $p$-efficiency for 3-manifold groups. We then study conjugacy $p$-separability and prove results for Fuchsian groups, Seifert fibre spaces and graph manifolds.

This is a first in a series of papers, devoted to the relation betwwen three-manifolds and number fields. The present paper studies first homology of finite coverings of a three-manifold with primary interest in the Thurston $b_1$ conjecture.The main result reads: if $M$ does not yield the Thurston conjecture, then the…

Field Theories in Physics can be formulated giving a local Lagrangian density. Locality is imposed using the infinite jet bundle. That bundle is viewed as a pro-finite dimensional smooth manifold and that point of view has been compared to different topological and Frechét structures on it. A category of local (insular…

New group-theoretic Johnson classes applied to curves with torsion Ceresa classes.

We prove that the fundamental group of any Seifert 3-manifold is conjugacy separable. That is, conjugates may be distinguished in finite quotients or, equivalently, conjugacy classes are closed in the pro-finite topology.
