result Accurately accommodates degeneracies in probabilistic inference without significant computational overhead.

In this paper, we compare two definitions of Rauzy classes. The first one was introduced by Rauzy and was in particular used by Veech to prove the ergodicity of the Teichmüller flow. The second one is more recent and uses a "labeling" of the underlying intervals, and was used in the proof of some recent major results a…

A function of several variables is called holonomic if, roughly speaking, it is determined from finitely many of its values via finitely many linear recursion relations with polynomial coefficients. Zeilberger was the first to notice that the abstract notion of holonomicity can be applied to verify, in a systematic and…

This paper is expository and is accessible to students. We define simple invariants of knots or links (linking number, Arf-Casson invariants and Alexander-Conway polynomials) motivated by interesting results whose statements are accessible to a non-specialist or a student. The simplest invariants naturally appear in an…

Harer and Zagier proved a recursion to enumerate gluings of a 2d2d-gon that result in an orientable genus gg surface, in their work on Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of curves. Analogous results have been discovered for other enumerative problems, so it is natural to pose the following question: how large is t…

This paper studies recursive ensembles driven by Fibonacci updates, improving learning dynamics.

problem Improving learning dynamics in recursive ensemble learning.
method Develops second-order recursive architectures with Fibonacci-type update flows.
result Establishes global convergence conditions and generalization bounds for recursive ensembles.

Since the Jones polynomial was discovered, the connection between knot theory and quantum physics has been of great interest. Lomonaco and Kauffman introduced the knot mosaic system to give a definition of the quantum knot system that is intended to represent an actual physical quantum system. Recently the authors deve…

We study the fields of endomorphisms intertwining pairs of symplectic structures. Using these endomorphisms we prove an analogue of Moser's theorem for simultaneous isotopies of two families of symplectic forms. We also consider the geometric structures defined by pairs and triples of symplectic forms for which the squ…

result Recursive activations occupy a linear, low-dimensional subspace that can be compressed efficiently.

We describe a method for recursively calculating Gromov-Witten invariants of all blowups of the projective plane. This recursive formula is different from the recursive formulas due to Göttsche and Pandharipande in the zero genus case, and Caporaso and Harris in the case of no blowups. We use tropical curves and a recu…

We derive the Do and Norbury recursion formula for the one-loop mean of an irregular spectral curve from a variant of replica method by Brezín and Hikami. We express this recursion in special times in which all terms W1(g)W_1^{(g)} of the genus expansion of the one-loop mean are polynomials. We find a generalization of th…

This paper concerns the recursive utility maximization problem under partial information. We first transform our problem under partial information into the one under full information. When the generator of the recursive utility is concave, we adopt the variational formulation of the recursive utility which leads to a s…

In this article, we aim at improving the prediction of expert aggregation by using the underlying properties of the models that provide expert predictions.
