Representation stability is a phenomenon whereby the structure of certain sequences $X_n$ of spaces can be seen to stabilize when viewed through the lens of representation theory. In this paper I describe this phenomenon and sketch a…
The purpose of these notes is to show that the methods introduced by Bauer and Furuta in order to refine the Seiberg-Witten invariants of smooth 4-dimensional manifolds can also be used to obtain stable homotopy classes from Riemann…
These notes are intended as an elementary introduction to the concept of absolute instability. The transition from convective instability to absolute instability is an important issue when the stability of stationary flow solutions is…
In this paper we explore the representation property over sets. This property generalizes constructibility, however is weak enough to enable us to prove that the class of theories $T$ whose models are representable is exactly the class of…
Using the differential precision methods developed previously by the same authors, we study the p-adic stability of standard operations on matrices and vector spaces. We demonstrate that lattice-based methods surpass naive methods in many…
Stacking is a general approach for combining multiple models toward greater predictive accuracy. It has found various application across different domains, ensuing from its meta-learning nature. Our understanding, nevertheless, on how and…
By working with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{R}$, one can define two different notions of stability for a sandpile on a graph. We call a sandpile immutable when these notions agree. Our main results give linear-algebraic…
We characterize which quadratic regular algebras of global dimension 3 are stable in the sense of Behrend-Noohi. (This notion of stability is a non-commutative analogue of Hilbert stability.) We describe the quasi-projective stack of stable…
A nonlinear partial differential equation is a nonlinear relationship between an unknown function and how it changes due to two or more input variables. A numerical method reduces such an equation to arithmetic for quick visualization, but…
We describe recent work on the arithmetic properties of moduli spaces of stable vector bundles and stable parabolic bundles on a curve over a global field. In particular, we describe a connection between the period-index problem for Brauer…
Many statistical estimators are defined as the fixed point of a data-dependent operator, with estimators based on minimizing a cost function being an important special case. The limiting performance of such estimators depends on the…
In 2010, the first author of this paper introduced the notion of $\sigma$--stability for a nonempty subset of an $L^0(\mathcal{F},K)$--module in [T.X. Guo, Relations between some basic results derived from two kinds of topologies for a…
We introduce a finite-dimensional algebra that controls the possible boundary conditions of a conformal field theory. For theories that are obtained by modding out a Z_2 symmetry (corresponding to a so-called D_odd-type, or half-integer…
We derive and prove an explicit formula for the sum of the fractional parts of certain geometric series. Although the proof is straightforward, we have been unable to locate any reference to this result. This summation formula allows us to…
This paper presents a formal definition of stability for node centrality measures in weighted graphs. It is shown that the commonly used measures of degree, closeness and eigenvector centrality are stable whereas betweenness centrality is…
The geometry of the moduli space of stable spin curves is studied, with emphasis on its combinatorial properties. In this context, the standard graph theoretic framework is not just a book-keeping device: some purely combinatorial results…
A system of gluon fields generated at the earliest phase of relativistic heavy-ion collisions can be described in terms of classical fields. Numerical simulations show that the system is unstable but a character of the instability is not…
Given a line bundle L on a smooth projective curve over the complex numbers, we show that a general extension E of L by the trivial line bundle is very stable: line bundles contained in E have degree much less than half the degree of E.…
In this paper, we study dynamical properties as shadowing and structural stability for a class of dynamics on $\mathbb{Z}_p$ and $\mathbb{Q}_p$, where $p \geq 2$ is a prime number. In particular, we prove that if $f: \mathbb{Z}_p \to…
We study the stability of fluctuations around a homogeneous non-Abelian electric field background that is of a form that is protected from Schwinger pair production. Our analysis identifies the unstable modes and we find a limiting set of…
