New invariant real rank identifies constant real Lie algebroids.

In this paper, we study real hypersurfaces in complex Grassmannians of rank two. First, the nonexistence of mixed foliate real hypersurfaces is proven. With this result, we show that for Hopf hypersurfaces in complex Grassmannians of rank two, the Reeb principal curvature is constant along integral curves of the Reeb v…

We prove that there does not exist any real hypersurface in complex Grassmannians of rank two with semi-parallel structure Jacobi operator. With this result, the nonexistence of real hypersurface in complex Grassmannians of rank two with recurrent structure Jacobi operator is proved.

For convex real projective manifolds we prove an analogue of the higher rank rigidity theorem of Ballmann and Burns-Spatzier.

The main result of this paper is the classification of the real irreducible representations of compact Lie groups with vanishing homogeneity rank.

Minimal submanifolds in matrix spaces proven for specific ranks.

If Gamma is a nonuniform, irreducible lattice in a semisimple Lie group whose real rank is greater than 1, we show Gamma contains a subgroup that is isomorphic to a nonuniform, irreducible lattice in either SL(3,R), SL(3,C), or a direct product SL(2,R)^m x SL(2,C)^n$, with m + n > 1. (In geometric terms, this can be in…

Proposes causal modeling for intersectional fairness in rankings.

In the 'Big Data' era, many real-world applications like search involve the ranking problem for a large number of items. It is important to obtain effective ranking results and at the same time obtain the results efficiently in a timely manner for providing good user experience and saving computational costs. Valuable …

The paper addresses privacy in rank aggregation using randomized responses.

Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group without compact factors whose real rank is at least 2, and let Γ\subset G be an irreducible lattice. We provide a C^\infty classification for volume-preserving Cartan actions of Γand G. Also, if G has real rank at least 3, we provide a C^\infty classification for volume-preserv…

In this article, we prove a Kahler extension theorem for real Kahler submanifolds of codimension 4 and rank at least 5. Our main theorem states that such a manifold is a holomorphic hypersurface in another real Kahler submanifold of codimension 2. This generalizes a result of Dajczer and Gromoll in 1997 which states th…

The paper encourages Kleinian group thinking for higher rank Lie groups.

Let $M$ be a real hypersurface in complex Grassmannians of rank two. Denote by $\mathfrak J$ the quaternionic Kähler structure of the ambient space, $TM^\perp$ the normal bundle over $M$ and $\mathfrak D^\perp=\mathfrak JTM^\perp$. The real hypersurface $M$ is said to be $\mathfrak D^\perp$-invariant if $\mathfrak D^\p…

Let G be the real points of a semisimple algebraic Q-group, let H be an arithmetic subgroup of G and let T be the real points of an R-split torus in G. We prove that if there is a divergent T-orbit in G/H, and Q-rank(G) > 1, then the dimension of T is not larger than Q-rank(G). This provides a partial answer to a quest…

New methods rank players using covariates and comparisons, outperforming existing algorithms.

Geometrically, tensors of fixed rank form a minimal submanifold.

In many real-world applications of machine learning classifiers, it is essential to predict the probability of an example belonging to a particular class. This paper proposes a simple technique for predicting probabilities based on optimizing a ranking loss, followed by isotonic regression. This semi-parametric techniq…

New methods provide stable ranking without assumptions on data distributions.

Study higher rank inner products and their tilings to describe tori degenerations.

The problem of frequent pattern mining has been studied quite extensively for various types of data, including sets, sequences, and graphs. Somewhat surprisingly, another important type of data, namely rank data, has received very little attention in data mining so far. In this paper, we therefore addresses the problem…

Heteroskedasticity biases uplift model rankings, leading to inefficient treatment allocation.

We present an algorithm, AROFAC2, which detects the (CP-)rank of a degree 3 tensor and calculates its factorization into rank-one components. We provide generative conditions for the algorithm to work and demonstrate on both synthetic and real world data that AROFAC2 is a potentially outperforming alternative to the go…

Abstract: Proves no non-trivial normal orbits for specific Hamiltonians.

Boosting for label ranking outperforms existing methods.

We investigate conformal actions of cocompact lattices in higher-rank simple Lie groups on compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Our main result gives a general bound on the real-rank of the lattice, which was already known for the action of the full Lie group by a result of Zimmer. When the real-rank is maximal, we pro…

This paper presents a Bayesian method for estimating the rank of a low-rank tensor model of joint PMF.

Improved homological dimension for certain subgroups in Lie groups.

This paper addresses the problem of rank aggregation, which aims to find a consensus ranking among multiple ranking inputs. Traditional rank aggregation methods are deterministic, and can be categorized into explicit and implicit methods depending on whether rank information is explicitly or implicitly utilized. Surpri…

Complete normal forms for specific real hypersurfaces in complex space are constructed.

New nonconvex regularizer speeds up low-rank matrix completion.

In this note we show that every (real or complex) vector bundle over a compact rank one symmetric space carries, after taking the Whitney sum with a trivial bundle of sufficiently large rank, a metric with nonnegative sectional curvature. We also examine the case of complex vector bundles over other manifolds, and give…

Most recent results in matrix completion assume that the matrix under consideration is low-rank or that the columns are in a union of low-rank subspaces. In real-world settings, however, the linear structure underlying these models is distorted by a (typically unknown) nonlinear transformation. This paper addresses the…

This paper protects rankings from differential privacy breaches.

Extends Hopf-Tsuji-Sullivan dichotomy to higher rank groups and applies to Anosov subgroups.

The study finds discrete subgroups with full limit sets in higher rank Lie groups.

We develop a notion of rank one properly convex domains (or Hilbert geometries) in the real projective space. This is in the spirit of rank one non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds and CAT(0) spaces. We define rank one isometries for Hilbert geometries and characterize them as being equivalent to contracting elem…

A new method for forming learning objectives using the sum of ranked range.

We consider the problem of constructing a reduced-rank regression model whose coefficient parameter is represented as a singular value decomposition with sparse singular vectors. The traditional estimation procedure for the coefficient parameter often fails when the true rank of the parameter is high. To overcome this …

We show that any effective isometric torus action of maximal rank on a compact Riemannian manifold with positive (sectional) curvature and maximal symmetry rank, that is, on a positively curved sphere, lens space, complex or real projective space, is equivariantaly diffeomorphic to a linear action. We show that a compa…

A new estimator reduces bias and variance in ranking policy evaluation.

If $G$ is a semisimple Lie group of real rank at least 2 and $Γ$ is an irreducible lattice in $G$, then every homomorphism from $Γ$ to the outer automorphism group of a finitely generated free group has finite image.

Higher index theorem for Dirac operators on finite-volume spaces.

Paper introduces online tensor inference for real-time data analysis.

We describe a seriation algorithm for ranking a set of items given pairwise comparisons between these items. Intuitively, the algorithm assigns similar rankings to items that compare similarly with all others. It does so by constructing a similarity matrix from pairwise comparisons, using seriation methods to reorder t…

Study critical exponents for L^p-cohomology of higher rank Lie groups and manifolds.

We give the complete classification of all sub-Riemannian model spaces with both step and rank three. They will be divided into three families based on their nilpotentization. Each family will depend on a different number of parameters, making the result crucially different from the known case of step two model spaces.…

We show that codimension one dimensional Jacobian of the barycentric straightening map is uniformly bounded for most of the higher rank symmetric spaces. As a consequence, we prove that the locally finite simplicial volume of most $\mathbb Q$-rank $1$ locally symmetric spaces is positive, which has been open for many y…
