We introduce the notion of "special superpolynomials" by putting q=1 in the formulas for reduced superpolynomials. In this way we obtain a generalization of special HOMFLY polynomials depending on one extra parameter t. Special HOMFLY are known to depend on representation R in especially simple way: as |R|-th power of …

Deep learning has received much attention lately due to the impressive empirical performance achieved by training algorithms. Consequently, a need for a better theoretical understanding of these problems has become more evident in recent years. In this work, using a unified framework, we show that there exists a polyhe…

With the usual definition of a super Hilbert space and a super unitary representation, it is easy to show that there are lots of super Lie groups for which the left-regular representation is not super unitary. I will argue that weakening the definition of a super Hilbert space (by allowing the super scalar product to b…

Neural networks learn task-specific features, influenced by nonlinearity.

problem Understanding the nature of task-dependent feature learning in neural networks.
method Investigation of fully-connected, wide neural networks using Bayesian framework.
result The nature of internal representations depends on neuronal nonlinearity, leading to analog, redundant, or sparse coding schemes.

We examine the influence of input data representations on learning complexity. For learning, we posit that each model implicitly uses a candidate model distribution for unexplained variations in the data, its noise model. If the model distribution is not well aligned to the true distribution, then even relevant variati…

method Novel generalization bounds accounting for both domain shift and generalization.
result Performance of contrastively learned representations depends on statistical discrepancy between pretraining and downstream distributions.

This paper connects Laguerre minimal surfaces to Weierstrass representations.

In this work we study surfaces in radial conformally flat spaces. We characterize surfaces of rotation with constant Gaussian and Extrinsic curvature in these radial 3-spaces. We prove that all the spheres in the conformal 3-space have constant Gaussian curvature K=1K=1 if, and only if, the conformal factor is special. …

result For nonlinear activations, the kernel sequence converges globally to a unique fixed point.

Semi-supervised learning is sought for leveraging the unlabelled data when labelled data is difficult or expensive to acquire. Deep generative models (e.g., Variational Autoencoder (VAE)) and semisupervised Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have recently shown promising performance in semi-supervised classificatio…

method Introduces financial epiplexity as a measure of learnable market structure, extending classical information theory.
result Proves that equal entropy does not imply equal epiplexity and derives thresholds for useful regimes.
