This paper is devoted to an inverse Steklov problem for a particular class of n-dimensional manifolds having the topology of a hollow sphere and equipped with a warped product metric. We prove that the knowledge of the Steklov spectrum determines uniquely the associated warping function up to a natural invariance.
We study the classical problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a cardinality constraint k, with two additional twists: (i) elements arrive in a streaming fashion, and (ii) m items from the algorithm's memory are removed after the stream is finished. We develop a robust submodular algorithm STAR-…
In discrete differential geometry, it is widely believed that the discrete Gaussian curvature of a polyhedral vertex star equals the algebraic area of its Gauss image. However, no complete proof has yet been described. We present an elementary proof in which we compare, for a particular normal vector, its winding numbe…
We introduce a method to design lightweight shell objects that are structurally robust under the external forces they may experience during use. Given an input 3D model and a general description of the external forces, our algorithm generates a structurally-sound minimum weight shell object. Our approach works by alter…
We study the fundamental problem of high-dimensional mean estimation in a robust model where a constant fraction of the samples are adversarially corrupted. Recent work gave the first polynomial time algorithms for this problem with dimension-independent error guarantees for several families of structured distributions…
We analyze a class of estimators based on convex relaxation for solving high-dimensional matrix decomposition problems. The observations are noisy realizations of a linear transformation X of the sum of an approximately) low rank matrix Θ⋆ with a second matrix Γ⋆ endowed with a complementary …
We are going to use the Euler's vector fields in order to show that for real quasi-homogeneous singularities with isolated critical value, the Milnor's fibration in a "thin" hollowed tube involving the zero level and the fibration in the complement of "link" in sphere are equivalents, since they exist. Moreover, in ord…
Let c be a periodic Reeb orbit on the boundary S of a compact star-shaped domain C in R4. We show that if there is an immersed symplectic disc f in C with boundary c then the self-linking number lk(c) of c equals 2 tan(f)-1 where tan(f) is the tangential self-intersection number of f. We also show that if C is convex a…
Let {⋅,⋅}P be a variational Poisson bracket in a field model on an affine bundle π over an affine base manifold Mm. Denote by × the commutative associative multiplication in the Poisson algebra A of local functionals Γ(π)→k that take…
The goal of this study is to present the development of a machine learning based approach that utilizes phase space alone to separate the Gaia DR2 stars into two categories: those accreted onto the Milky Way from those that are in situ. Traditional selection methods that have been used to identify accreted stars typica…
We calculated the cross correlations between the half-hourly times series of the ten Dow Jones US economic sectors over the period February 2000 to August 2008, the two-year intervals 2002--2003, 2004--2005, 2008--2009, and also over 11 segments within the present financial crisis, to construct minimal spanning trees (…
Minimizing a convex, quadratic objective of the form fA,b(x):=21x⊤Ax−⟨b,x⟩ for A≻0 is a fundamental problem in machine learning and optimization. In this work, we prove gradient-query complexity lower bounds for minimizing conv…
In this article, we introduce the notion of star-Ricci tensors in the real hypersurfaces of complex quadric Qm. It is proved that there exist no Hopf hypersurfaces in Qm,m≥3, with commuting star-Ricci tensor or parallel star-Ricci tensor. As a generalization of star-Einstein metric, star-Ricci solitons on M …
We study Veech groups of covering surfaces of primitive translation surfaces. Therefore we define congruence subgroups in Veech groups of primitive translation surfaces using their action on the homology with entries in Z/aZ. We introduce a congruence level definition and a property of a primitive t…
