Simplified and extended a method for rearranging infinite configurations of cubes.

We study and classify topologically invariant $σ$-ideals with a Borel base on the Hilbert cube and evaluate their cardinal characteristics. One of the results of this paper solves (positively) a known problem whether the minimal cardinalities of the families of Cantor sets covering the unit interval and the Hilbert cub…

The family of Wilder continua in cubes of dimension > 2 and its two subfamilies-of continuum-wise Wilder continua and of hereditarily arcwise connected continua-are recognized as coanalytic absorbers in the hyperspace of subcontinua of the cubes. In particular, each of them is homeomorphic to the set of all nonempty co…

We introduce a family of copulas which are locally piecewise uniform in the interior of the unit cube of any given dimension. Within that family, the simultaneous control of tail dependencies of all projections to faces of the cube is possible and we give an efficient sampling algorithm. The combination of these two pr…

New upper bound for non-trivial links in a cube, geometric approach.

We construct a compact metric space that has any other compact metric space as a tangent, with respect to the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, at all points. Furthermore, we give examples of compact sets in the Euclidean unit cube, that have almost any other compact set of the cube as a tangent at all points or just in a den…

We consider the ways in which a 4-tangle T inside a unit cube can be extended outside the cube into a knot or link L. We present two links n(T) and d(T) such that the greatest common divisor of the determinants of these two links always divides the determinant of the link L. In order to prove this result we give a two-…

Smooth isotopy on cube saves energy with extra dimensions.

We prove several new results around Gromov's waist theorem. We give a simple proof of Vaaler's theorem on sections of the unit cube using the Borsuk--Ulam--Crofton technique. We consider waists of real and complex projective spaces, flat tori, convex bodies in Euclidean space. We establish waist-type results in terms o…

Paper proves Gromov's cube inequality in all dimensions.

A toric cube is a subset of the standard cube defined by binomial inequalities. These basic semialgebraic sets are precisely the images of standard cubes under monomial maps. We study toric cubes from the perspective of topological combinatorics. Explicit decompositions as CW-complexes are constructed. Their open cells…

Generalizes Leighton's theorem to cube complexes.

Study shows shallow ReLU networks struggle with high-dimensional Lipschitz functions.

In this paper we introduce a representation of knots and links called a cube diagram. We show that a property of a cube diagram is a link invariant if and only if the property is invariant under two types of cube diagram operations. A knot homology is constructed from cube diagrams and shown to be equivalent to knot Fl…

This article concerns the expressive power of depth in neural nets with ReLU activations and bounded width. We are particularly interested in the following questions: what is the minimal width $w_{\text{min}}(d)$ so that ReLU nets of width $w_{\text{min}}(d)$ (and arbitrary depth) can approximate any continuous functio…

Given a triangulation of a closed topological cube, we show that (under some technical condition) there is an essentially unique tiling of a rectangular parallelepiped by cubes, indexed by the vertices of the triangulation. Moreover, i - the combinatorics is preserved, and ii- the boundary is preserved: vertices corres…

New geometric spine for Artin groups defined by cube complexes.

Estimating divergences in a consistent way is of great importance in many machine learning tasks. Although this is a fundamental problem in nonparametric statistics, to the best of our knowledge there has been no finite sample exponential inequality convergence bound derived for any divergence estimators. The main cont…

For a knot K the cube number is a knot invariant defined to be the smallest n for which there is a cube diagram of size n for K. We will show that the cube number detects chirality in all cases computed thus far, and distinguishes certain legendrian knots.

Study mapping class groups on CAT(0) cube complexes.

We analyze a plug-in estimator for a large class of integral functionals of one or more continuous probability densities. This class includes important families of entropy, divergence, mutual information, and their conditional versions. For densities on the $d$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^d$ that lie in a $β$-Hölder s…

We give a characterization of alternating link exteriors in terms of cubed complexes. To this end, we introduce the concept of a "signed BW cubed-complex", and give a characterization for a signed BW cubed-complex to have the underlying space which is homeomorphic to an alternating link exterior.

We define an integer-valued invariant of special cube complexes called the genus, and prove that having genus one characterizes special cube complexes with abelian fundamental group. Using the genus, we obtain a new proof that the fundamental group of a special cube complex is either free abelian or surjects onto a non…

For a knot $K$ the cube number is a knot invariant defined to be the smallest $n$ for which there is a cube diagram of size $n$ for $K$. There is also a Legendrian version of this invariant called the \emph{Legendrian cube number}. We will show that the Legendrian cube number distinguishes the Legendrian left hand toru…

Finite stature proven for cube complexes with cyclonormal edges.

Cube edges curves minimize systole length.

We demonstrate the homogeneity of the Hilbert Cube. In particular, we construct explicit self-homeomorphisms of the Hilbert cube so that given any two points, a homeomorphism moving one to the other may be realized.

Beside simplices, $n$-cubes form an important class of simple polyhedra. Unlike hyperbolic Coxeter simplices, hyperbolic Coxeter $n$-cubes are not classified. We show that there is no hyperbolic Coxeter $n$-cube for $n\geq~6$, and provide a full classification for $n\leq 5$. Our methods, which are essentially of combin…

In this short note we highlight some of the differences between cube diagrams and grid diagrams. We also list examples of small cube diagrams for all knots up to 7 crossings and give some examples of links.

Lean 4 formalizes Stokes' theorem for smooth singular cubes.

Groups on CAT(0) cube complexes grow exponentially uniformly.

CUBE explains models by balanced experiments and contrasts.

We prove that smooth cube manifolds have normal smooth structures.

We show that groups satisfying Kazhdan's property (T) have no unbounded actions on finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complexes, and deduce that there is a locally CAT(-1) Riemannian manifold which is not homotopy equivalent to any finite dimensional, locally CAT(0) cube complex.

Non-uniform lattices in PU(n,1) cannot geometrically act on CAT(0) cube complexes.

New group acts on complex but not in lower dimensions.

We count orientable small covers over cubes. We also get estimates for $O_n/R_n$, where $O_n$ is the number of orientable small covers and $R_n$ is the number of all small covers over an $n$-cube up to the Davis-Januszkiewicz equivalence.

Extends folding techniques to study subgroups of CAT(0) cube complexes.

The study finds conditions for groups acting on CAT(0) cube complexes to have infinite girth.

We introduce a class of spaces, called real cubings, and study the stucture of groups acting nicely on these spaces. Just as cubings are a natural generalisation of simplicial trees, real cubings can be regarded as a natural generalisation of real trees. Our main result states that a finitely generated group $G$ acts n…

We combine ideas of Scott and Swarup on good position for almost invariant subsets of a group with ideas of Sageev on constructing cubings from such sets. We construct cubings which are more canonical than in Sageev's original construction. We also show that almost invariant sets can be chosen to be in very good positi…

The paper extends ternary algebra concepts using cube roots of unity.

Develops theory of relatively geometric actions on CAT(0) cube complexes.

The $n$-skeleton of the canonical cubulation $\cal C$ of $\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ into unit cubes is called the {\it canonical scaffolding} ${\cal{S}}$. In this paper, we prove that any smooth, compact, closed, $n$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ with trivial normal bundle can be continuously isotoped by an amb…

We compute the Minimal Entropy of every closed, orientable $3$-manifold, showing that its cube equals the sum of the cubes of the minimal entropies of each hyperbolic component arising from the $JSJ$ decomposition of each prime summand. As a consequence we show that the cube of the Minimal Entropy is additive with resp…

In the present paper we find a bijection between the set of small covers over an $n$-cube and the set of acyclic digraphs with $n$ labeled nodes. Using this, we give a formula of the number of small covers over an $n$-cube (generally, a product of simplices) up to Davis-Januszkiewicz equivalence classes and $\mathbf{Z}…

We give a generalized and self-contained account of Haglund-Paulin's wallspaces and Sageev's construction of the CAT(0) cube complex dual to a wallspace. We examine criteria on a wallspace leading to finiteness properties of its dual cube complex. Our discussion is aimed at readers wishing to apply these methods to pro…
