We propose a novel and efficient algorithm for the collaborative preference completion problem, which involves jointly estimating individualized rankings for a set of entities over a shared set of items, based on a limited number of…
This paper introduces a novel approach to the axiomatic theory of quadratic forms. We work internally in a category of certain partially ordered sets, subject to additional conditions which amount to a strong form of local presentability.…
A $\mathbb{Z}^d$-graded differential $R$-module is a $\mathbb{Z}^d$-graded $R$-module $D$ equipped with an endomorphism, $\delta$, that squares to zero. For $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$, this paper establishes a lower bound on the rank of such a…
In a recent paper (2018), D. Hofmann, R. Neves and P. Nora proved that the dual of the category of compact partially ordered spaces and monotone continuous maps is a quasi-variety - not finitary, but bounded by $\aleph_1$. An open question…
Valuation based systems verifying an idempotent property are studied. A partial order is defined between the valuations giving them a lattice structure. Then, two different strategies are introduced to represent valuations: as infimum of…
Assume that $(L,v)$ is a finite Galois extension of a valued field $(K,v)$. We give an explicit construction of the valuation ring $\mathcal O_L$ of $L$ as an $\mathcal O_K$-algebra, and an explicit description of the module of relative…
We investigate a version of Alberti's rank one theorem in Ahlfors regular metric spaces, as well as a connection with quasiconformal mappings. More precisely, we give a proof of the rank one theorem that partially follows along the usual…
We consider the problem of finding the smallest rank of a complex matrix whose absolute values of the entries are given. We call this minimum the phaseless rank of the matrix of the entrywise absolute values. In this paper we study this…
Recently, the interest in semifields has increased due to the discovery of several new families and progress in the classification problem. Commutative semifields play an important role since they are equivalent to certain planar functions…
This is the third in a series of papers which outlines an approach to the classification of $\mathcal{N}{=}2$ superconformal field theories at rank 2 via the study of their Coulomb branch geometries. Here we use the fact that the encoding…
We describe some forms with greater Waring rank than previous examples. In $3$ variables we give forms of odd degree with strictly greater rank than the ranks of monomials, the previously highest known rank. This narrows the possible range…
We study the problem of ranking with submodular valuations. An instance of this problem consists of a ground set $[m]$, and a collection of $n$ monotone submodular set functions $f^1, \ldots, f^n$, where each $f^i: 2^{[m]} \to R_+$. An…
Rank estimation is a classical model order selection problem that arises in a variety of important statistical signal and array processing systems, yet is addressed relatively infrequently in the extant literature. Here we present sample…
Using the technique of quasi difference sets we characterize geometry and automorphisms of configurations which can be presented as a join of some others, in particular - which can be presented as series of cyclically inscribed copies of…
An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…
By the planarity rank of a semigroup variety we mean the largest number of generators of a free semigroup of a variety with respect to which the semigroup admits a planar Cayley graph. Since the time when L.M.Martynov formulated the problem…
We introduce a taxonomy for partially coherent optical fields spanning multiple degrees of freedom (DoFs) based on the rank of the associated coherence matrix (the number of non-zero eigenvalues). When DoFs comprise two spatial modes and…
We introduce the monic rank of a vector relative to an affine-hyperplane section of an irreducible Zariski-closed affine cone $X$. We show that the monic rank is finite and greater than or equal to the usual $X$-rank. We describe an…
Rank functors on a quiver $Q$ are certain additive functors from the category of representations of $Q$ to the category of finite-dimensional vector spaces. Composing with the dimension function on vector spaces gives a rank function on…
The classification, both up to isomorphism or up to equivalence, of the gradings on a finite dimensional nonassociative algebra A over an algebraically closed field F, such that its group scheme of automorphisms is smooth, is shown to be…
