Sparse regularization reduces NLP model complexity without sacrificing accuracy.

Suppose X/Gamma is an arithmetic locally symmetric space of noncompact type (with the natural metric induced by the Killing form of the isometry group of X), and let p be a point on the visual boundary of X. It was shown by T.Hattori that if each horoball based at p intersects every Gamma-orbit in X, then p is not on t…

The present paper attempts to show an alternative approach with regards to rational Pythagorean-hodograph (PH) curves and especially more natural approach for rational PH helices (i.e. rational helices). It exploits geometric features of rational helices to obtain a simpler construction of these curves and apply this t…

We note that a rational 33-tangle diagram is obtained from a combination of four generators. There is an algorithm to distinguish two rational 33-tangle diagrams up to isotopy. However, there is no perfect classification about rational 33-tangle diagrams such as the classification of rational 22-tangle diagrams cor…

This paper gives two new combinatorial topological proofs of the classification of rational tangles. Each proof rests on an elegant lemma showing that rational tangles are isotopic to canonical alternating rational tangles. The first proof defines the tangle fraction from the canonical form and uses flyping to prove in…

This paper is an introduction to rational tangles, rational knots and links and their applications to DNA. The paper can be read as an introduction to our more technical papers on rational tangles (math.GT/0311499) and on rational knots (math.GT/0212011). The present paper includes a self-contained account of the tangl…

In this paper, we introduce a rational ττ invariant for rationally null-homologous knots in contact 3-manifolds with nontrivial Ozsváth-Szabó contact invariants. Such an invariant is an upper bound for the sum of rational Thurston-Bennequin invariant and the rational rotation number of the Legendrian representatives o…

In this paper, We introduce an invariant of rational n-tangles which is obtained from the Kauffman bracket. It forms a vector with Laurent polynomial entries. We prove that the invariant classifies the rational 2-tangles and the reduced alternating rational 3-tangles. We conjecture that it classifies the rational 3-tan…

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently emerged as a popular building block for natural language processing (NLP). Despite their success, most existing CNN models employed in NLP share the same learned (and static) set of filters for all input sentences. In this paper, we consider an approach of using a smal…

We introduce the notion of rational links in the solid torus. We show that rational links in the solid torus are fully characterized by rational tangles, and hence by the continued fraction of the rational tangle. Furthermore, we generalize this by giving an infinite family of ambient isotopy invariants of colored diag…
