New infinite family of hyperbolic L-space knots with specific semigroups.

Establishes geometric properties of elements in the positive semigroup of a general real semisimple Lie group.

We extend a result regarding the Random Backward Iteration algorithm for drawing Julia sets (known to work for certain rational semigroups containing a non-Möbius element) to a class of Möbius semigroups which includes certain settings not yet been dealt with in the literature, namely, when the Julia set is not a thick…

The paper studies a semigroup generated by finite intervals and characterizes its properties.

We obtain an analog of the compression of angles theorem in symmetric spaces for Bruhat--Tits buildings of the type $A$. More precisely, consider a $p$-adic linear space $V$ and the set $Lat(V)$ of all lattices in $V$. The complex distance in $Lat(V)$ is a complete system of invariants of a pair of points of $Lat(V)$ u…

Given a group $G$ and a subset $X \subset G$, an element $g \in G$ is called quasi-positive if it is equal to a product of conjugates of elements in the semigroup generated by $X$. This notion is important in the context of braid groups, where it has been shown that the closure of quasi-positive braids coincides with t…

Handlebody groups reduced to 3 or 4 generators for g ≥ 5 and 3 or 4 for g ≥ 3.

This paper presents a study of the asymptotic geometry of groups with contracting elements, with emphasis on a subclass of statistically convex-cocompact (SCC) actions. The class of SCC actions includes relatively hyperbolic groups, CAT(0) groups with rank-1 elements and mapping class groups, among others. We exploit a…

We strengthen the results of \cite{A1}, consequently, we improve the claims of \cite{A2} obtaining the best possible results. Namely, we prove that if a subgroup $Γ$ of $\mathrm{Diff}_{+}(I)$ contains a free semigroup on two generators then $Γ$ is not $C_0$-discrete. Using this, we extend the Hölder's Theorem in $\math…

Proves representability of complex semigroup systems.

A semigroup of annuli integrates a central extension of vector fields on S^1.

Flat semigroups can represent normal weighted homogeneous surface singularities.

Intertwining curvature bounds for graphs and quantum Markov semigroups verified.

We investigate the dynamics of semigroups generated by a family of polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere such that the postcritical set in the complex plane is bounded. The Julia set of such a semigroup may not be connected in general. We show that for such a polynomial semigroup, if $A$ and $B$ are two connected compo…

We consider the dynamics of rational semigroups (semigroups of rational maps) on the Riemann sphere. We provide proof that a random backward iteration algorithm to draw the pictures of the Julia sets, previously proven to work in the context of iteration of a rational map of degree two or more, extends to finitely gene…

Our goal is to convince the readers that the theory of complex normal surface singularities can be a powerful tool in the study of numerical semigroups, and, in the same time, a very rich source of interesting affine and numerical semigroups. More precisely, we prove that the strongly flat semigroups, which satisfy the…

For all genus g, Powell's elements generate Goeritz groups trivially.

Constructs free semigroups with critical exponents close to but less than ambient groups.

Introduces intrinsic Hopf-Lax semigroup linking to intrinsic slope.

We look at the semigroup generated by a system of heat equations. Applications to testing normality and option pricing are addressed.

In 1980 J. Powell proposed that five specific elements sufficed to generate the Goeritz group of any Heegaard splitting of $S^3$. This conjecture remains unresolved for genus $g \geq 4$. Here a short argument shows that one of his proposed generators is redundant, in fact a consequence of three of the other four.

Graphs approximate semigroups for diffusion on Riemannian manifolds.

Develops ML-DQA for healthcare data quality assurance.

The problem behind this paper is the proper measurement of the degree of quality/acceptability/distance to arbitrage of trades. We are narrowing the class of coherent acceptability indices introduced by Cherny and Madan (2007) by imposing an additional mathematical property. For this, we introduce the notion of a conca…

This monograph develops the theory of covariant Schrödinger semigroups acting on sections of vector bundles over noncompact Riemannian manifolds from scratch. Contents: I. Sobolev spaces on vector bundles II. Smooth heat kernels on vector bundles III. Basis differential operators in Riemannian manifolds IV. Some specif…

We investigate the dynamics of $2$-generator semigroups of polynomials with bounded planar postcritical set and associated random dynamics on the Riemann sphere. Also, we investigate the space ${\cal B}$ of such semigroups. We show that for a parameter $h$ in the intersection of ${\cal B}$, the hyperbolicity locus ${\c…

Study estimates gaps in semigroup products, proving embedding properties.

Generates semigroups for differential expressions on Riemannian manifolds.

We consider isotropic Lévy processes on a compact Riemannian manifold, obtained from an $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued Lévy process through rolling without slipping. We prove that the Feller semigroups associated with these processes extend to strongly continuous contraction semigroups on $L^p$, for $1\leq p<\infty$, and that t…

The paper studies dynamical properties in semigroups modulo ideals.

New heat semigroup characterizes Sobolev and BV spaces in Carnot groups.

We use recoupling theory to study the Kauffman bracket skein module of the quaternionic manifold over Z[A,A^{-1}] localized by inverting all the cyclotomic polynomials. We prove that the skein module is spanned by five elements. Using the quantum invariants of these skein elements and the Z_2 homology of the manifold, …

Generators found for nonorientable surfaces with many punctures.

Paper proposes deep learning for operators in semigroups, improving dynamical system modeling.

Construction of a semigroup with 15 generators and 84 relations is given. The center of this semigroup is in one-to-one correspondence with the set of all isotopy classes of non-oriented singular knots (links with finitely many double intersections in general position) in three-dimensional space.

The paper associates knots to numerical semigroups and shows their Alexander polynomials coincide with semigroups' Poincaré series.

The paper provides gradient estimates for Neumann semigroups on manifolds with boundary under unbounded curvature conditions.

New generators prove sufficiency for Goeritz group of 3-sphere.

In 1980 J. Powell proposed that five specific elements sufficed to generate the Goeritz group of any Heegaard splitting of $S^3$, extending work of Goeritz on genus $2$ splittings. Here we prove that Powell's conjecture was correct for splittings of genus $3$ as well, and discuss a framework for deciding the truth of t…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary $\pp M$ and $L= \DD+Z$ for a $C^1$-vector field $Z$ on $M$. Several equivalent statements, including the gradient and Poincaré/log-Sobolev type inequalities of the Neumann semigroup generated by $L$, are presented for lower bound conditions on the curvature of $L$ …

New stability theory for Sinkhorn semigroups with explicit decay rates.

The hexabasic book is the cone of the 1-dimensional skeleton of the union of two tetrahedra glued along a common face. The universal 3-dimensional polyhedron UP is the product of a segment and the hexabasic book. We show that any 2-dimensional link in 4-space is isotopic to a surface in UP. The proof is based on a repr…

Abstract: Nonlinear random walk with distributionally robust transition probabilities.

A left order on a magma (e.g., semigroup) is a total order of its elements that is left invariant under the magma operation. A natural topology can be introduced on the set of all left orders of an arbitrary magma. We prove that this topological space is compact. Interesting examples of nonassociative magmas, whose spa…

DM uses semigroup property to tune diffusion time for better data analysis.

Study quantum diffusion on spectral triples and spinor bundles.

We extend the Feynman-Kac formula for Schrödinger type operators on vector bundles over noncompact Riemannian manifolds to possibly very singular potentials that appear in hydrogen like quantum mechanical problems and that need not be bounded from below or locally square integrable. This path integral formula is then u…

We apply Heegaard Floer homology to study deformations of singularities of plane algebraic curves. Our main result provides an obstruction to the existence of a deformation between two singularities. Generalizations include the case of multiple singularities. The obstruction is formulated in terms of a semicontinuity p…
