Paper studies simplified trisections and their equivalence classes.

A simplified trisection is a trisection map on a 4-manifold such that, in its critical value set, there is no double point and cusps only appear in triples on innermost fold circles. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a 3-tuple of systems of simple closed curves in a surface to be a diagram of a simplifie…

Shapes of four dimensional spaces can be studied effectively via maps to standard surfaces. We explain, and illustrate by quintessential examples, how to simplify such generic maps on 4-manifolds topologically, in order to derive simple decompositions into much better understood manifold pieces. Our methods not only al…

Residual Neural Networks (ResNets) achieve state-of-the-art performance in many computer vision problems. Compared to plain networks without residual connections (PlnNets), ResNets train faster, generalize better, and suffer less from the so-called degradation problem. We introduce simplified (but still nonlinear) vers…

We consider a Black-Scholes market in which a number of stocks and an index are traded. The simplified Capital Asset Pricing Model is the conjunction of the usual Capital Asset Pricing Model, or CAPM, and the statement that the appreciation rate of the index is equal to its squared volatility plus the interest rate. (T…

More precisely, we will proved that the singular strata Sk(u)S^k(u) of an approximate harmonic map are k-rectifiable, and we will show effect bounds on the quantitative strata. In the process we will simplify many o…
