Proves a theorem for mechanical systems with reflections.

Study properties of orbits of Hermann actions without commutability assumptions.

In this paper, we assume that all isoparametric submanifolds have flat section. The main purpose of this paper is to prove that, if a full irreducible complete isoparametric submanifold of codimension greater than one in a symmetric space of non-compact type admits a reflective focal submanifold and if it of real analy…

This paper is devoted to a systematic study of the geometry of nondegenerate $\bbR^n$-actions on $n$-manifolds. The motivations for this study come from both dynamics, where these actions form a special class of integrable dynamical systems and the understanding of their nature is important for the study of other Hamil…

We consider both standard and twisted action of a (real) Coxeter group G on the complement M_G to the complexified reflection hyperplanes by combining the reflections with complex conjugation. We introduce a natural geometric class of special involutions in G and give explicit formulae which describe both actions on th…

Survey explores interactions between four conformal dynamics branches.

An integral hyperbolic lattice is called reflective if its automorphism group is generated by reflections, up to finite index. Since 1981, it is known that their number is essentially finite. We show that K3 surfaces over C with reflective Picard lattices can be characterized in terms of compositions of their self-corr…

Study on Morse homology for reflection actions on manifolds.

The space AH(M) of marked hyperbolic 3-manifold homotopy equivalent to a compact 3-manifold with boundary M sits inside the PSL_2(C)-character variety X(M) of π_1(M). We study the dynamics of the action of Out(π_1(M)) on both AH(M) and X(M). The nature of the dynamics reflects the topology of M. The quotient AI(M)=AH(M…

RPO uses past and future state-action info for better policy optimization.

Finite volume Coxeter polytopes are quasiperfect and related to finite covolume reflection groups.

We provide an equivariant description/classification of all complete (compact or not) non-negatively curved manifolds M together with a co-compact action by a reflection group W, and moreover, classify such W. In particular, we show that the building blocks consist of the classical constant curvature models and general…

We investigate discrete groups $G$ of isometries of a complete connected Riemannian manifold $M$ which are generated by reflections, in particular those generated by disecting reflections. We show that these are Coxeter groups, and that the the orbit space $M/G$ is isometric to a Weyl chamber $C$ which is a Riemannian …

We compute the equivariant $K$-homology of the classifying space for proper actions, for compact 3-dimensional hyperbolic reflection groups. This coincides with the topological $K$-theory of the reduced $C^\ast$-algebra associated to the group, via the Baum-Connes conjecture. We show that, for any such reflection group…

Study geometric properties of a complex hyperbolic group action.

For a real oriented hyperplane arrangement, we show that the corresponding Salvetti complex is homotopy equivalent to the complement of the complexified arrangement. This result was originally proved by M. Salvetti. Our proof follows the framework of a proof given by L. Paris and relies heavily on the notation of orien…

Bayesian RL enhances LLMs to reflectively explore and correct errors.

We develop a normative framework for hierarchical model-based policy optimization based on applying second-order methods in the space of all possible state-action paths. The resulting natural path gradient performs policy updates in a manner which is sensitive to the long-range correlational structure of the induced st…

We study isometric actions on Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type which are induced by reductive algebraic subgroups of the isometry group. We show that for such an action there exists a corresponding isometric action on a dual compact symmetric space, which reflects many properties of the original action. F…

Let P and Q be convex polyhedra in E3 with face lattices F(P) and F(Q) and symmetry groups G(P) and G(Q), respectively. Then, P and Q are called face equivalent if there is a lattice isomorphism between F(P) and F(Q); P and Q are called symmetry equivalent if the action of G(P) on F(P) is equivalent to the action of G(…

New solutions to 3D integrability equations using quantum cluster algebras.

Study automorphisms of pure braid groups on sphere homotopy groups.

In this work we investigate the relation between the fundamental group of a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ and the quotient between the Weyl group and reflection group of a polar action on $M$, as well as the relation between the fundamental group of $M$ and the quotient between the lifted Weyl group and lifted refle…

We study the partial resolutions of singularities related to Hilbert schemes of points on an affine space. Consider a quotient of a vector space $V$ by an action of a finite group $G$ of linear transforms. Under some additional assumptions, we prove that the partial desingularization of Hilbert type is smooth only if t…

A theorem of Tits - Vinberg allows to build an action of a Coxeter group $Γ$ on a properly convex open set $Ω$ of the real projective space, thanks to the data $P$ of a polytope and reflection across its facets. We give sufficient conditions for such action to be of finite covolume, convex-cocompact or geometrically fi…

Smooth deformation space of Coxeter polytopes proven for orderable orbifolds.

Machine learning (ML) is increasingly deployed in real world contexts, supplying actionable insights and forming the basis of automated decision-making systems. While issues resulting from biases pre-existing in training data have been at the center of the fairness debate, these systems are also affected by technical a…

The paper explores rigidity and proximality in dynamical systems, proving new results about $C^*$-algebras.

New method recovers diverse policies from expert data using state-action pair weighting.

The works of William Rowan Hamilton in Geometrical Optics are presented, with emphasis on the Malus-Dupin theorem. According to that theorem, a family of light rays depending on two parameters can be focused to a single point by an optical instrument made of reflecting or refracting surfaces if and only if, before ente…

Let S be a compact Riemann surfaces of genus g >= 2 and G a conformal automoprhism group of order n acting on S. In this paper we give the definition of an adapted generating set and an adapted basis for the first homology group of such a compact Riemann surface. This generating set and basis reflect the action of G in…

Facial expression analysis based on machine learning requires large number of well-annotated data to reflect different changes in facial motion. Publicly available datasets truly help to accelerate research in this area by providing a benchmark resource, but all of these datasets, to the best of our knowledge, are limi…

In this paper, we present our approach to solve a physics-based reinforcement learning challenge "Learning to Run" with objective to train physiologically-based human model to navigate a complex obstacle course as quickly as possible.

Proposes meTS for efficient exploration in correlated bandits.

In this paper we establish the best constant $\widetilde A_{opt}(\bar{M})$ for the Trace Nash inequality on a $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold in the presence of symmetries, which is an improvement over the classical case due to the symmetries which arise and reflect the geometry of manifold. This is particu…

There are many known examples of scalar-flat Kähler ALE surfaces, all of which have group at infinity either cyclic or contained in ${\rm{SU}}(2)$. The main result in this paper shows that for any non-cyclic finite subgroup $Γ\subset {\rm{U}}(2)$ containing no complex reflections, there exist scalar-flat Kähler ALE met…

A discrete subgroup of the group of isometries of the hyperbolic space is called reflective if up to a finite index it is generated by reflections in hyperplanes. The main result of this paper is a complete classification of the reflective (and quasi-reflective) subgroups among the Bianchi groups and their extensions.
