In a 2002 paper, the authors and Bruner used the new spectrum tmf to obtain some new nonimmersions of real projective spaces. In this note, we complete/correct two oversights in that paper. The first is to note that in that paper a general…

We prove the following two new optimal immersion results for complex projective space. First, if n equiv 3 mod 8 but n not equiv 3 mod 64, and alpha(n)=7, then CP^n can be immersed in R^{4n-14}. Second, if n is even and alpha(n)=3, then…

We use obstruction theory to prove that if alpha(n)=2, then RP^{16n+8} cannot be immersed in R^{32n+3} and RP^{16n+10} cannot be immersed in R^{32n+11}, and that if alpha(n)>2, then RP^{8n+4} can be embedded in R^{16n+1}. These are new…

We introduce and study properties of certain new multifunctional harmonic spaces in the upper halfspace.We prove several sharp embedding theorems for such multifunctional spaces,these results are new even in the case of a single function.

For each integer q>0 there is a cohomology theory such that the zero cohomology group of a manifold N of dimension n is a certain group of cobordism classes of proper fold maps of manifolds of dimension n+q into N. We prove a splitting…

In this paper we study isometric immersions $f:M^n \to {\mathbb {C}^{\prime}}\!P^n$ of an $n$-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifold $M^n$ into the $n$-dimensional para-complex projective space ${\mathbb {C}^{\prime}}\!P^n$. We study the…

We compute the integral cohomology ring of configuration spaces of two points on a given real projective space. Apart from an integral class, the resulting ring is a quotient of the known integral cohomology of the dihedral group of order 8…

We introduce Random Projection Flows (RPFs), a principled framework for injective normalizing flows that leverages tools from random matrix theory and the geometry of random projections. RPFs employ random semi-orthogonal matrices, drawn…

This paper contains three related groupings of results. First, we consider a new notion of an admissible skein module of a surface associated to an ideal in a (non-semisimple) pivotal category. Second, we introduce the notion of a chromatic…

We use Brown-Peterson cohomology to obtain lower bounds for the higher topological complexity, TC_k(RP^n), of real projective spaces, which are often much stronger than those implied by ordinary mod-2 cohomology.

Let nbar=(n_1,...,n_r). The quotient space P_nbar:=(S^{n_1} x...x S^{n_r})/(x ~ -x)is what we call a projective product space. We determine the integral cohomology ring and the action of the Steenrod algebra. We give a splitting of Sigma…

An immersion of a smooth $n$-dimensional manifold $M \to \mathbb{R}^q$ is called totally nonparallel if, for every distinct $x, y \in M$, the tangent spaces at $f(x)$ and $f(y)$ contain no parallel lines. Given a manifold $M$, we seek the…

It has been shown by Batyrev and Borisov that nef partitions of reflexive polyhedra can be used to construct mirror pairs of complete intersection Calabi--Yau manifolds in toric ambient spaces. We construct a number of such spaces and…

We obtain a new proof, using integral cohomology and group actions, of an old embedding theorem for real projective spaces.

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective variety over a field $\mathbf{k}$ of dimension $d.$ Let $\tau: \mathbb{Q}_l\to \mathbb{C}$ be any field embedding. Let $f: X\to X$ be a surjective endomorphism. We show that for every…

Kitchloo and Wilson have used the homotopy fixed points spectrum ER(2) of the classical complex-oriented Johnson-Wilson spectrum E(2) to deduce certain non-immmersion results for real projective spaces. ER(n) is a $2^{n+2}(2^n-1)$-periodic…

In this paper, we propose a new Semi-Nonnegative Matrix Factorization method for 2-dimensional (2D) data, named TS-NMF. It overcomes the drawback of existing methods that seriously damage the spatial information of the data by converting 2D…

A novel representation is developed as a measure for multilinear fractional embedding. Corresponding extensions are given for the Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu theorem and Pitt's inequality. New results are obtained for diagonal trace…

We study the impact of sampling theorems on the fidelity of sparse image reconstruction on the sphere. We discuss how a reduction in the number of samples required to represent all information content of a band-limited signal acts to…

An important result in real algebraic geometry is the projection theorem: every projection of a semialgebraic set is again semialgebraic. This theorem and some of its conclusions lie at the basis of many other results, for example the…
