New method learns transport cost from subset correspondence.

We describe a correspondence between Turaev surfaces of link diagrams on $S^2\subset S^3$ and special Heegaard diagrams for $S^3$ adapted to links.

The notion of max-plus convex subset of Euclidean space can be naturally extended to other linear spaces. The aim of this paper is to describe the topology of hyperspaces of max-plus convex subsets of Tychonov powers $\mathbb R^τ$ of the real line. We show that the corresponding spaces are AR's if and only if $τ\leω_1$…

Cyclic projections in Hadamard spaces can be irregular, unlike in Hilbert spaces.

A proof of the Willmore conjecture is presented. With the help of the global Weierstrass representation the variational problem of the Willmore functional is transformed into a constrained variational problem on the moduli space of all spectral curves corresponding to periodic solutions of the Davey-Stewartson equation…

This paper provides an explicit form for symmetric differentials and their corresponding holomorphic functions.

Geometric proof shows regularity of anisotropic minimal surfaces in 2D.

Currents on cusped hyperbolic surfaces have a denseness property similar to compact surfaces.

Cylindrical contact homology computed for links of simple singularities.

An elementary geometric construction is used to relate the space of lattices in a plane to the space exp_3(S^1) of the subsets of a circle of cardinality at most 3. As a consequence we obtain new proofs of a theorem of Bott which says that exp_3(S^1) is homeomorphic to a 3-sphere and a theorem of Shchepin which says th…

New method finds hyperelliptic 4-manifolds from polytope vector-colorings.

Study Higgs bundles on curves with punctures, extending spectral correspondence.

For a semisimple Lie group $G$ with parabolic subgroups $Q\subset P\subset G$, we associate to a parabolic geometry of type $(G,P)$ on a smooth manifold $N$ the correspondence space $\Cal CN$, which is the total space of a fiber bundle over $N$ with fiber a generalized flag manifold, and construct a canonical parabolic…

We show that any closed oriented immersed Hamiltonian stationary isotropic surface $Σ$ with genus $g_Σ$ in $S^{5}\subset\mathbb{C}^{3}$ is (1) Legendrian and minimal if $g_Σ=0$; (2) either Legendrian or with exactly $2g_Σ-2$ Legendrian points if $g_Σ\geq1.$ In general, every compact oriented immersed isotropic submanif…

Extends confining subset theory to describe hyperbolic actions of solvable groups with higher rank abelianizations.

On a smooth line bundle $L$ over a compact Kähler Riemann surface $Σ$, we study the family of vortex equations with a parameter $s$. For each $s \in [1,\infty]$, we invoke techniques in \cite{Br} by turning the $s$-vortex equation into an $s$-dependent elliptic partial differential equation, studied in \cite{kw}, provi…

We list all analytic diffeomorphisms between an open subset of the 4-dimensional projective space and an open subset of the 4-dimensional sphere that take all line segments to arcs of round circles. These are the following: restrictions of the quaternionic Hopf fibrations and projections from a hyperplane to a sphere f…

New tools found to create hyperbolic links with lower volume bounds.

Let $ρ:(D^2)^m\to I^m$ be the orbit map for the diagonal action of the torus $T^m$ on the unit poly-disk $(D^2)^m$, $I^m=[0,1]^m$ is the unit cube. Let $C$ be a cubical subcomplex in $I^m$. The moment-angle complex $\ma(C)$ is a $T^m$-invariant bigraded cellular decomposition of the subset $ρ^{-1}(C)\subset(D^2)^m$ wit…

In this paper, we define conservative semibasic vector $1-$forms on the tangent bundle of a Finsler manifold. Using these vector $1-$forms, we characterize conservative $L-$Ehresmann connections with respect to the energy function. Then we find a correspondence between torsion-free semibasic vector $1-$forms and the su…

Subset currents on hyperbolic groups were introduced by Kapovich and Nagnibeda as a generalization of geodesic currents on hyperbolic groups, which were introduced by Bonahon and have been successfully studied in the case of the fundamental group $π_1 (Σ)$ of a compact hyperbolic surface $Σ$. Kapovich and Nagnibeda par…

A standard way of approximating or discretizing a metric space is by taking its Rips complexes. These approximations for all parameters are often bound together into a filtration, to which we apply the fundamental group or the first homology. We call the resulting object persistence. Recent results demonstrate that per…

Spotlight method finds hidden errors in deep learning models.

The study extends curvature bounds to non-smooth spaces and proves stability of mean curvature.

We define and study the set ${\mathcal E}(ρ)$ of end invariants of a $\SL(2,C)$ character $ρ$ of the one-holed torus $T$. We show that the set ${\mathcal E}(ρ)$ is the entire projective lamination space $\mathscr{PL}$ of $T$ if and only if (i) $ρ$ corresponds to the dihedral representation, or (ii) $ρ$ is real and corr…

In this paper we investigate the space of harmonic maps from a 2-torus to $\mathbb{S}^3$ using the spectral curve correspondence and Whitham deformations. In an open and dense subset of a parameter space we find that the space of harmonic maps is smooth and has dimension two. We also show that the points that correspon…

New mapping classes of knotted surfaces are computed via surgery.

Paper solves Hermitian-Einstein equations on noncompact manifolds.

We show that the smooth $4$-manifold $M$ obtained by attaching a $2$-handle to $B^4$ along a certain knot $K\subset \partial B^4$ admits infinitely many absolutely exotic copies $M_n$, $n=0,1,2..$, such that each copy $M_n$ is obtained by attaching $2$-handle to a fixed compact smooth contractible manifold $W$ along th…

We prove that a sequence of Fueter sections of a bundle of compact hyperkahler manifolds $\mathfrak X$ over a $3$-manifold $M$ with bounded energy converges (after passing to a subsequence) outside a $1$-dimensional closed rectifiable subset $S \subset M$. The non-compactness along $S$ has two sources: (1) Bubbling-off…

Rigidity theorem for discrete metric spaces embedded in Riemannian surfaces.

Study derivations for nilpotent Lie algebras with negative Ricci curvature.

Twisted torus links are given by twisting a subset of strands on a closed braid representative of a torus link. T--links are a natural generalization, given by repeated positive twisting. We establish a one-to-one correspondence between positive braid representatives of Lorenz links and T--links, so Lorenz links and T-…

Let $Gr(d,n)$ be the Grassmannian of $d$-dimensional linear subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$. A submanifold $X\subset Gr(d, n)$ gives rise to a differential system $Σ(X)$ that governs $d$-dimensional submanifolds of $V$ whose Gaussian image is contained in $X$. We investigate a special case of this cons…

We introduce the concept of Spin^G-structure in a SO-bundle, where $G\subset U(V)$ is a compact Lie group containing $-id_V$. We study and classify $Spin^G(4)$-structures on 4-manifolds, we introduce the G-Monopole equations associated with a $Spin^G$-structure. On Kaehler surfaces a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence ca…

The group Gamma of automorphisms of the polynomial kappa(x,y,z) = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - xyz -2 is isomorphic to PGL(2,Z) semi-direct product with (Z/2+Z/2). For t in R, Gamma-action on ktR = kappa^{-1}(t) intersect R displays rich and varied dynamics. The action of Gamma preserves a Poisson structure defining a Gamma-invar…

In this paper, we study the Atiyah class and Todd class of the DG manifold $(F[1],d_F)$ corresponding to an integrable distribution $F \subset T_{\mathbb{K}} M = TM \otimes_{\mathbb{R}} \mathbb{K}$, where $\mathbb{K} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. We show that these two classes are canonically identical to those of the…

In real-world machine learning applications, data subsets correspond to especially critical outcomes: vulnerable cyclist detections are safety-critical in an autonomous driving task, and "question" sentences might be important to a dialogue agent's language understanding for product purposes. While machine learning mod…

Methods of transfer learning try to combine knowledge from several related tasks (or domains) to improve performance on a test task. Inspired by causal methodology, we relax the usual covariate shift assumption and assume that it holds true for a subset of predictor variables: the conditional distribution of the target…

Smooths $C^0$-Finsler structures using mollifiers.

We show that there is an one-to-one correspondence between resolutions (equivariant w.r.t. a Lie groupoid action) of a singular subset of a manifold, and substacks (of a certain type) of the differential stack associated to the Lie groupoid in question. In particular, we show how to build an equivariant resolution out …

A challenge in training discriminative models like neural networks is obtaining enough labeled training data. Recent approaches use generative models to combine weak supervision sources, like user-defined heuristics or knowledge bases, to label training data. Prior work has explored learning accuracies for these source…

New method finds open subsets with trivial holonomy for certain geometries.

We consider a distributed learning approach in supervised learning for a large class of spectral regularization methods in an RKHS framework. The data set of size n is partitioned into $m=O(n^α)$ disjoint subsets. On each subset, some spectral regularization method (belonging to a large class, including in particular K…

We show how to extend the Covering Spectrum (CS) of Sormani-Wei to two spectra, called the Extended Covering Spectrum (ECS) and Entourage Spectrum (ES) that are new for Riemannian manifolds but defined with useful properties on any metric on a Peano continuum. We do so by measuring in two different ways the "size" of a…

Study of Gordian graphs' behavior at infinity for various local moves.

The probability density function for the visible sector of a Riemann-Theta Boltzmann machine can be taken conditional on a subset of the visible units. We derive that the corresponding conditional density function is given by a reparameterization of the Riemann-Theta Boltzmann machine modelling the original probability…
