48 results for tame links

We show that every non-trivial tame knot or link in R^3 has a quadrisecant, i.e. four collinear points. The quadrisecant must be topologically non-trivial in a precise sense. As an application, we show that a nonsingular, algebraic surface in R^3 which is a knotted torus must have degree at least eight.

Following T.-J. Li, W. Zhang [Comparing tamed and compatible symplectic cones and cohomological properties of almost complex manifolds, Comm. Anal. Geom.], we continue to study the link between the cohomology of an almost-complex manifold and its almost-complex structure. In particular, we apply the same argument in [T…

In this paper, we prove that given two cubical links of dimension two in R4{\mathbb R}^4, they are isotopic if and only if one can pass from one to the other by a finite sequence of cubulated moves. These moves are analogous to the Reidemeister and Roseman moves for classical tame knots of dimension one and two, respec…

We introduce the new class of submanifolds of co-Banach type in tame Fréchet manifolds and construct tame Fréchet submanifolds as inverse images of regular values of certain tame maps. Our method furnishes an easy way to construct tame Fréchet manifolds. The results presented are key ingredients in the construction of …

result Self Reeb-untangling energy of compact Legendrian submanifolds is greater than period gap.

Existing nonconvex statistical optimization theory and methods crucially rely on the correct specification of the underlying "true" statistical models. To address this issue, we take a first step towards taming model misspecification by studying the high-dimensional sparse phase retrieval problem with misspecified link…

Tame Flowsmath.GT

The tame flows are ``nice'' flows on ``nice'' spaces. The nice (tame) sets are the pfaffian sets introduced by Khovanski, and a flow Φ:R×XXΦ: \mathbb{R}\times X\to X on pfaffian set XX is tame if the graph of ΦΦ is a pfaffian subset of R×X×X\mathbb{R}\times X\times X. Any compact tame set admits plenty tame flows. We prove …

Paper proposes a new method to stabilize noisy gradient algorithms.

problem Stochastic-gradient Langevin algorithms can introduce bias when taming denominators depend on stochastic-gradient realizations.
method Proposes a structure-preserving framework for designing tamed denominators that avoid unnecessary taming and maintain the stabilizing effect of taming.
result The method avoids stationary bias and explains the stationary error split into bias and remaining error.

The study confirms Gromov's speculation and provides bounds for taming symplectic structures.

result An almost complex manifold with an area bound admits a taming symplectic structure, confirming Gromov's speculation.

Solenoids are ``inverse limits'' of the circle, and the classical knot theory is the theory of tame embeddings of the circle into the 3-space. We give some general study, including certain classification results, of tame embeddings of solenoids into the 3-space as the ``inverse limits'' of the tame embeddings of the ci…

The purpose of this paper is to present a certain combinatorial method of constructing invariants of isotopy classes of oriented tame links. This arises as a generalization of the known polynomial invariants of Conway and Jones. These invariants have one striking common feature. If L+, L- and L0 are diagrams of oriente…

We prove a Markov theorem for tame links in a connected closed orientable 3-manifold MM with respect to a plat-like representation. More precisely, given a genus gg Heegaard surface ΣgΣ_g for MM we represent each link in MM as the plat closure of a braid in the surface braid group Bg,2n=π1(C2n(Σg))B_{g,2n}=π_1(C_{2n}(Σ_g)) and an…

Here tame mapping means a mapping which is subanalytic or, more generally, definable in some o-minimal structure. Our sufficient conditions are formulated in terms of various properties (convexity, positivity…

We classify Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces. In particular we prove that all countable subgroups of GL+(2,R)\mathbf{GL}_+(2,\R) avoiding the set of mappings of norm less than 1 appear as Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces which are Loch Ness monsters. Conversely, a Veech group of any tame flat surf…

Inspired by the paper on quantum knots and knot mosaics [23] and grid diagrams (or arc presentations), used extensively in the computations of Heegaard-Floer knot homology [2,3,7,24], we construct the more concise representation of knot mosaics and grid diagrams via mirror-curves. Tame knot theory is equivalent to knot…

Symplectic forms taming complex structures on compact manifolds are strictly related to Hermitian metrics having the fundamental form ˉ\partial \bar \partial -closed, i.e. to strong Kähler with torsion (SKT{\rm SKT}) metrics.

We show that a complete submanifold MM with tamed second fundamental form in a complete Riemannian manifold NN with sectional curvature KNκ0K_{N}\leq κ\leq 0 are proper, (compact if NN is compact). In addition, if NN is Hadamard then MM has finite topology. We also show that the fundamental tone is an obstruction fo…
