The paper studies sequences of solutions to Hitchin-Simpson equations on Kähler manifolds.

This paper describes the behavior of sequences of solutions to the Kapustin-Witten equations with Nahm pole asymptotics on the product of the half-line with a compact, oriented, Riemannian 3-manifold. These sequences have sub-sequences that either converge to another solution after acting term-wise by an automorphism o…

We describe the asymptotic behavior of Palais-Smale sequences associated to certain Yamabe-type equations on manifolds with boundary. We prove that each of those sequences converges to a solution of the limit equation plus a finite number of "bubbles" which are obtained by rescaling fundamental solutions of the corresp…

We study sequences of 3-dimensional solutions to the Ricci flow with almost nonnegative sectional curvatures and diameters tending to infinity. Such sequences may arise from the limits of dilations about singularities of Type IIb. In particular, we study the case when the sequence collapses, which may occur when dilati…

Existence of an infinite sequence of harmonic maps between spheres of certain dimensions was proven by Bizon and Chmaj. This sequence shares many features of the Bartnik-McKinnon sequence of solutions to the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations as well as sequences of solutions that have arisen in other physical models. We ap…

Positive scalar curvature metrics on cobordisms yield only reducible Seiberg-Witten solutions.

We discuss intrinsic aspects of Krupka's approach to finite-order variational sequences. We give intrinsic isomorphisms of the quotient subsheaves of the short finite-order variational sequence with sheaves of forms on jet spaces of suitable order, obtaining a new finite-order (short exact) variational sequence which i…

CR structure on S³ with non-compact solutions to CR Yamabe problem.

We present our solution to the job recommendation task for RecSys Challenge 2016. The main contribution of our work is to combine temporal learning with sequence modeling to capture complex user-item activity patterns to improve job recommendations. First, we propose a time-based ranking model applied to historical obs…

We introduce the super-Toda system on Riemann surfaces and study the blow-up analysis for a sequence of solutions to the super-Toda system on a closed Riemann surface with uniformly bounded energy. In particular, we show the energy identities for the spinor parts of a blow-up sequence of solutions for which there are p…

In this paper we consider the functional whose critical points are solutions of the fractional CR Yamabe type equation on the sphere. We firstly study the behavior of the Palais-Smale sequences characterizing the bubbling phenomena and therefore we prove a multiplicity type result by showing the existence of infinitely…

This is the second of two papers that describe a compactness theorem for sequences of solutions of certain SL(2;C) analogs of the anti-self dual equations on oriented, 4-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. This paper proves theorems that characterize the singular locus of limits of sequences of solutions to the equations…

In this paper we study the Palais-Smale sequences of the conformal Dirac-Einstein problem. After we characterize the bubbling phenomena, we prove an Aubin type result leading to the existence of a positive solution. Then we show the existence of infinitely many solutions to the problem provided that the underlying mani…

Data of practical interest - such as personal records, transaction logs, and medical histories - are sequential collections of events relevant to a particular source entity. Recent studies have attempted to link sequences that represent a common entity across data sets to allow more comprehensive statistical analyses a…

The paper studies how to transform a sequence of cmc planes into a minimal surface.

We consider Lipschitz-type backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) driven by cylindrical martingales on the space of continuous functions. We show the existence and uniqueness of the solution of such infinite-dimensional BSDEs and prove that the sequence of solutions of corresponding finite-dimensional BSDEs…

We study Yamabe metrics, and the moduli space of Yamabe metrics, on an arbitrary closed 3-manifold M. The main focus is on the boundary behavior of the moduli space, i.e. the behavior of degenerating sequences of unit volume Yamabe metrics on M. It is proved that such degenerations, when non-trivial in a certain sense,…

The paper constructs non-convergent solutions to Vafa-Witten equations with specific harmonic 2-form limits.

We present a theoretical analysis of Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) sequence estimation for binary symmetric hidden Markov processes. We reduce the MAP estimation to the energy minimization of an appropriately defined Ising spin model, and focus on the performance of MAP as characterized by its accuracy and the number of s…

Sequence classification is an important data mining task in many real world applications. Over the past few decades, many sequence classification methods have been proposed from different aspects. In particular, the pattern-based method is one of the most important and widely studied sequence classification methods in …

We establish the weak continuity of the Gauss-Coddazi-Ricci system for isometric embedding with respect to the uniform $L^p$-bounded solution sequence for $p>2$, which implies that the weak limit of the isometric embeddings of the manifold is still an isometric embedding. More generally, we establish a compensated comp…

We consider the set of solutions to the rho-vortex equations over a Kahler surface and prove a Uhlenbeck compactness result, namely that a sequence of solutions with the same energy converge to the sum of a solution of smaller energy and deltas of Dirac.

We consider a discrete-time, linear state equation with delay which arises as a model for a trader's account value when buying and selling a risky asset in a financial market. The state equation includes a nonnegative feedback gain $α$ and a sequence $v(k)$ which models asset returns which are within known bounds but o…

We consider active maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference problem for Hidden Markov Models (HMM), where, given an initial MAP estimate of the hidden sequence, we select to label certain states in the sequence to improve the estimation accuracy of the remaining states. We develop an analytical approach to this problem for…

This paper studies the behavior of sequences of solutions to Seiberg-Witten like equations for a pair consisting of a Hermitian connection on a line bundle over a 4-dimensional manifold and a section of the self-dual spinor bundle of a complex Clifford module on the manifold. Examples include the cases where the Cliffo…

We present a voice conversion solution using recurrent sequence to sequence modeling for DNNs. Our solution takes advantage of recent advances in attention based modeling in the fields of Neural Machine Translation (NMT), Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). The problem consists of converting be…

Deep network predicts action sequences for complex tasks from a scene image.

This paper addresses the morphing of manifold-valued images based on the time discrete geodesic paths model of Berkels, Effland and Rumpf 2015. Although for our manifold-valued setting such an interpretation of the energy functional is not available so far, the model is interesting on its own. We prove the existence of…

We give a new proof of the fact that the value function of the finite time horizon American put option for a jump diffusion, when the jumps are from a compound Poisson process, is the classical solution of a free boundary equation. We also show that the value function is $C^1$ across the optimal stopping boundary. Our …

Sequential pattern mining is an interesting research area with broad range of applications. Most prior research on sequential pattern mining has considered point-based data where events occur instantaneously. However, in many application domains, events persist over intervals of time of varying lengths. Furthermore, tr…

Uhlenbeck's compactness theorem can be used to analyze sequences of connections with anti-self dual curvature on principal SU(2) bundles over oriented 4-dimensional manifolds. The theorems in this paper give an extension of Uhlenbeck's theorem for sequences of solutions of certain SL(2,C) analogs of the anti-self dual …

Calculates spectral flow bounds for reducible solutions to Vafa-Witten equations.

We study singularity formation of complete Ricci flow solutions, motivated by two applications: (a) improving the understanding of the behavior of the essential blowup sequences of Enders-Muller-Topping on noncompact manifolds, and (b) obtaining further evidence in favor of the conjectured stability of generalized cyli…

LES optimizes designs by sampling descent sequences, achieving strong sample efficiency.

Let M=P(E) be a ruled surface. We introduce metrics of finite volume on M whose singularities are parametrized by a parabolic structure over E. Then, we generalise results of Burns--de Bartolomeis and LeBrun, by showing that the existence of a singular Kahler metric of finite volume and constant non positive scalar cur…

The recently proposed Sequence-to-Sequence (seq2seq) framework advocates replacing complex data processing pipelines, such as an entire automatic speech recognition system, with a single neural network trained in an end-to-end fashion. In this contribution, we analyse an attention-based seq2seq speech recognition syste…

Sequences of Levy transformations for the Darboux system of conjugates nets in multidimensions are studied. We show that after a suitable number of Levy transformations, with at least a Levy transformation in each direction, we get closed formulae in terms of multi-Wroński determinants. These formulae are for the tange…

MSLs use parallelizable root-finding for efficient ODE and PDE solutions.

We study a class of fourth order geometric equations defined on a 4-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold which includes the Q-curvature equation. We obtain sharp estimates on the difference near the blow-up points between a bubbling sequence of solutions and the standard bubble.

A sequence of rational functions in a variable $q$ is $q$-holonomic if it satisfies a linear recursion with coefficients polynomials in $q$ and $q^n$. We prove that the degree of a $q$-holonomic sequence is eventually a quadratic quasi-polynomial. Our proof uses differential Galois theory (adapting proofs regarding hol…

Sumformer simplifies Transformers to handle long sequences efficiently.

The Vafa-Witten equations on an oriented Riemannian 4- manifold are first order, non-linear equations for a pair of connection on a principle SO(3) bundle over the 4-manifold and a self-dual 2-form with values in the associated Lie algebra bundle. The main theorem in this paper characterizes in part the behavior of seq…

Study on nonlinear elliptic equations with variable exponents, proving existence and multiplicity of solutions.

We present a solution to scale spectral algorithms for learning sequence functions. We are interested in the case where these functions are sparse (that is, for most sequences they return 0). Spectral algorithms reduce the learning problem to the task of computing an SVD decomposition over a special type of matrix call…
