Choosing a reference group in Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition can reverse conclusions.

problem The choice of reference group in Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition can lead to different conclusions.
method The study uses the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition to investigate how the choice of reference group affects the results.
result The Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition can yield different conclusions based on the choice of reference group.

In this paper the introduction of notion of reference vector paves the way for a combination of classical and social approaches in the framework of referential preferences given by matrix groups. It is shown that individual demand issue from rational decision does not depend on that reference.

In this paper we consider the problem of group invariant subspace clustering where the data is assumed to come from a union of group-invariant subspaces of a vector space, i.e. subspaces which are invariant with respect to action of a given group. Algebraically, such group-invariant subspaces are also referred to as su…

For simply connected compact exceptional Lie groups G=F4,E6G = F_4, E_6 and E7E_7, we consider two involutions σ,γσ, γ and determine the group structure of subgroups Gσ,γG^{σ,γ} of GG which are the intersection GσGγG^σ\cap G^γ of the fixed points subgroups of GσG^σ and GγG^γ. The motivation is as follows. In [1](see the Referen…

We give results on when a finitely generated group has only indiscrete embeddings in SL(2,C), with particular reference to 3-manifold groups. For instance if we glue two copies of the figure 8 knot along its torus boundary then the fundamental group of the resulting closed 3-manifold sometimes embeds in SL(2,C) and som…

The purpose of this contribution is to point out connections between recent ideas about gerbes and gerbal actions (as higher categorical extension of representation theory) and old discussion in quantum field theory on commutator anomalies, gauge group extensions, and 3-cocycles. The unifying concept is the classical o…

Let B_n be the braid group on n strands, with n at least 4, and let Mod(S) be the extended mapping class group of the sphere with n+1 punctures. We show that the abstract commensurator of B_n is isomorphic to a semidirect product of Mod(S) with a group we refer to as the transvection subgroup, Tv(B_n). We also show tha…

Equivariant neural networks are a class of neural networks designed to preserve symmetries inherent in the data. In this paper, we introduce a general method for modifying a neural network to enforce equivariance, a process we refer to as equivarification.
