We provide formulas for invariants defined on a tensor product of defining representations of unitary groups, under the action of the product group. This situation has a physical interpretation, as it is related to the quantum mechanical…
Given a feature set for the shape of a closed loop, it is natural to ask which features in that set do not change when the starting point of the path is moved. For example, in two dimensions, the area enclosed by the path does not depend on…
Image enhancement from degradation of rainy artifacts plays a critical role in outdoor visual computing systems. In this paper, we tackle the notion of scale that deals with visual changes in appearance of rain steaks with respect to the…
We show that shadowing is a generic property among continuous maps and surjections on a large class of locally connected one-dimensional continua.
A signed graph is a graph whose edges are labelled positive or negative. The sign of a circle (cycle, circuit) is the product of the signs of its edges. Most of the essential properties of a signed graph depend on the signs of its circles.…
A properly edge-colored graph is a graph with a coloring of its edges such that no vertex is incident to two or more edges of the same color. A subgraph is called rainbow if all its edges have different colors. The problem of finding…
New invariants of links are constructed using the skein invariant polynomial of colored links defined by the author in [1]. These invariants are stronger than the homflypt polynomial.
Shadows for bicategories, defined by Ponto, provide a useful framework that generalizes classical and topological Hochschild homology. In this paper, we define Hochschild-type invariants for monoids in a symmetric monoidal, simplicial model…
A proper vertex colouring of a graph is \emph{nested} if the vertices of each of its colour classes can be ordered by inclusion of their open neighbourhoods. Through a relation to partially ordered sets, we show that the nested chromatic…
A Fox p-colored knot $K$ in $S^3$ gives rise to a $p$-fold branched cover $M$ of $S^3$ along $K$. The pre-image of the knot $K$ under the covering map is a $\dfrac{p+1}{2}$-component link $L$ in $M$, and the set of pairwise linking numbers…
We enumerate the state diagrams of the twist knot shadow which consist of the disjoint union of two trivial knots. The result coincides with the maximal number of regions into which the plane is divided by a given number of circles. We then…
Given a compact metric space (X; \varrho) and a continuous function f:X\rightarrow X, we study the dynamics of the induced map \bar{f} on the hyperspace of the compact subsets of X. We show how the chain recurrent set of f and its…
We introduce a rotation-invariant representation of planar shapes. In particular, this representation encodes shapes as vectors such that the Euclidean distance between them serves as a valid shape distance. For standardized, star-shaped…
This paper is an attempt to apply the tools of supergeometry to arithmetic. Supergeometric objects are defined over supercommutative rings of coefficients, and we consider an integral ring with exactly two odd variables. In this case the…
Coloring numbers are one of the simplest combinatorial invariants of knots and links to describe. And with Joyce's introduction of quandles, we can understand them more algebraically. But can we extend these invariants to tangles -- knots…
A shift-invariant space is a space of functions that is invariant under integer translations. Such spaces are often used as models for spaces of signals and images in mathematical and engineering applications. This paper characterizes those…
Structural pattern recognition describes and classifies data based on the relationships of features and parts. Topological invariants, like the Euler number, characterize the structure of objects of any dimension. Cohomology can provide…
Representation theory provides a suitable framework to count and classify invariants in tensor models. We show that there are two natural ways of counting invariants, one for arbitrary rank of the gauge group and a second, which is only…
We offer a pedestrian level review of the wall-crossing invariants. The story begins from the scattering theory in quantum mechanics where the spectrum reshuffling can be related to permutations of S-matrices. In non-trivial situations,…
Maps from links in thickened surfaces to flat-virtual links help to construct invariants of links using invariants of flat-virtual links. This work is dedicated to investigation of equivalence and invariants of flat-virtual diagrams…
