Invariant measures found for contact Hamiltonian systems split into Reeb and Liouville dynamics.

New financial model with sandwiched volatility for option pricing.

We apply Gromov's ham sandwich method to get (1) domain monotonicity (up to a multiplicative constant factor); (2) reverse domain monotonicity (up to a multiplicative constant factor); and (3) universal inequalities for Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on bounded convex domains in a Euclidean space.

New Stein fillings found for non-weighted homogeneous singularities.

Planar multilinks prove rational singularities in surface geometry.

The main goal of the paper is to prove the sandwich theorem for geodesic convex functions in a complete Riemannian manifold. Then by using this theorem we have proved an inequality in a manifold with bounded sectional curvature. Finally, we have shown that the gradient of a convex function is orthogonal to the tangent …

This paper develops a method to estimate the rate-distortion function for general data sources.

In this paper we show the validity, under certain geometric conditions, of Wheeler's thin sandwich conjecture for higher dimensional theories of gravity. We extend the results shown by R. Bartnik and G. Fodor for the 3-dimensional case in two ways. On the one hand, we show that the results obtained by the mentioned aut…

Maximal extractable value in CFMMs can degrade or improve routing quality, with reordering MEV showing logarithmic impact.

Paper proves SVV model reproduces power-law skew in implied volatilities.

A theorem divides hyperplanes evenly with a line through the origin.

The reduced thin-sandwich equations (RTSE) appear within Wheeler's thin-sandwich approach towards the Einstein constraint equations (ECE) of general relativity. It is known that these equations cannot be well-posed in general, but, on closed manifolds, sufficient conditions for well-posedness have been established. In …

In this paper, we propose new efficient algorithms to verify the null space condition in compressed sensing (CS). Given an $(n-m) \times n$ ($m>0$) CS matrix $A$ and a positive $k$, we are interested in computing $\displaystyle α_k = \max_{\{z: Az=0,z\neq 0\}}\max_{\{K: |K|\leq k\}}$ ${\|z_K \|_{1}}{\|z\|_{1}}$, where …

Recent work has suggested enhancing Bloom filters by using a pre-filter, based on applying machine learning to determine a function that models the data set the Bloom filter is meant to represent. Here we model such learned Bloom filters,, with the following outcomes: (1) we clarify what guarantees can and cannot be as…

Study reveals risks of investing in new crypto-tokens in decentralized exchanges.

Ethereum block builders can earn up to $14M/month by reordering transactions, harming users.

Study on deformations of symmetric spaces using Jordan algebras.

Equivalent formulations for low-rank matrix optimization are proven.

Computing the marginal likelihood (ML) of a model requires marginalizing out all of the parameters and latent variables, a difficult high-dimensional summation or integration problem. To make matters worse, it is often hard to measure the accuracy of one's ML estimates. We present bidirectional Monte Carlo, a technique…

We show that the if a sequence of normalized polynomials gives rise to a positive basis of the skein algebra of a surface, then it is sandwiched between the two types of Chebyshev polynomials. For the closed torus, we show that the normalized sequence of Chebyshev polynomials of type one $(\hat{T}_n)$ is the only one w…

Researchers develop a method to infer reference measures from observed functionals.

New framework improves option pricing models by addressing volatility dynamics.

The paper explores handlebody versions of various diagram algebras.

Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) can achieve promising performance on learning complex data distributions on different types of data. In this paper, we first show a straightforward extension of existing GAN algorithm is not applicable to point clouds, because the constraint required for discriminators is undefined…

For portfolio optimisation under proportional transaction costs, we provide a duality theory for general cadlag price processes. In this setting, we prove the existence of a dual optimiser as well as a shadow price process in a generalised sense. This shadow price is defined via a "sandwiched" process consisting of a p…

Study finds average 2.02 bps loss in automated market maker routing.

Paper improves ML estimation from incomplete data with robust M-estimator.

In an $L_\infty$-framework, we present a few extension theorems for linear operators. We focus the attention on majorant preserving and sandwich preserving types of extensions. These results are then applied to the study of price systems derived by a reasonable restriction of the class of equivalent martingale measures…

Automating statistical modelling is a challenging problem in artificial intelligence. The Automatic Statistician takes a first step in this direction, by employing a kernel search algorithm with Gaussian Processes (GP) to provide interpretable statistical models for regression problems. However this does not scale due …

To better understand the interplay of censoring and sparsity we develop finite sample properties of nonparametric Cox proportional hazard's model. Due to high impact of sequencing data, carrying genetic information of each individual, we work with over-parametrized problem and propose general class of group penalties s…

Study Stein and Milnor fillings of links from surface singularities.

New findings on QHD smoothing for graphs with 3 or 4 large nodes.

The drift method, introduced by the second author, provides a new formulation of the Einstein constraint equations, either in vacuum or with matter fields. The natural of the geometry underlying this method compensates for its slightly greater analytic complexity over, say, the conformal or conformal thin sandwich meth…

Semi-implicit variational inference (SIVI) is introduced to expand the commonly used analytic variational distribution family, by mixing the variational parameter with a flexible distribution. This mixing distribution can assume any density function, explicit or not, as long as independent random samples can be generat…

New insights into Valiant's learnability model reveal classes learnable with membership queries.

We define two non-linear operations with random (not necessarily closed) sets in Banach space: the conditional core and the conditional convex hull. While the first is sublinear, the second one is superlinear (in the reverse set inclusion ordering). Furthermore, we introduce the generalised conditional expectation of r…

This paper models stock prices using a Janardan Galton Watson process.

A symplectic manifold $(M,ω)$ is called {\em (symplectically) uniruled} if there is a nonzero genus zero GW invariant involving a point constraint. We prove that symplectic uniruledness is invariant under symplectic blow-up and blow-down. This theorem follows from a general Relative/Absolute correspondence for a symple…

Study on symplectic Dirac operators on foliations, estimating eigenvalues.

We study topological properties of log-symplectic structures and produce examples of compact manifolds with such structures. Notably we show that several symplectic manifolds do not admit log-symplectic structures and several log-symplectic manifolds do not admit symplectic structures, for example #m CP^2 # n bar(CP^2)…

Symplectic 4-manifolds can be divided into three parts with a special structure.

Smooth symplectic manifolds can be approximated by PL symplectic manifolds.

We describe the structure of the Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant symplectic form, called symplectic Lie groups, in terms of semi-direct products of Lie groups, symplectic reduction and principal bundles with affine fiber. This description is particularly nice if the group is Hamiltonian, that is, if the left c…

Solves symplectic and conformal symplectic group actions equivalence problem.

We consider aspherical manifolds with torsion-free virtually polycyclic fundamental groups, constructed by Baues. We prove that if those manifolds are cohomologically symplectic then they are symplectic. As a corollary we show that cohomologically symplectic solvmanifolds are symplectic.

We present some methods to construct smooth circle actions on symplectic manifolds with non-symplectic fixed point sets or non-symplectic cyclic isotropy point sets. All such actions are not compatible with any symplectic form.
