Accurate 3D shape abstraction from a single 2D image is a long-standing problem in computer vision and graphics. By leveraging a set of primitives to represent the target shape, recent methods have achieved promising results. However, these…
We exhibit several transformations of surfaces in R^4. First, one that takes a flat surface and gets a surface with flat normal bundle; then, one that takes a surface with flat normal bundle and gets a flat surface; finally, a one-parameter…
In this paper we produce noncommutative algebras derived equivalent to deformations of schemes with tilting bundles. We do this in two settings, first proving that a tilting bundle on a scheme lifts to a tilting bundle on an infinitesimal…
We consider a general gauge theory with independent generators and study the problem of gauge-invariant deformation of initial gauge-invariant classical action. The problem is formulated in terms of BV-formalism and is reduced to describing…
Accurate modelling of object deformations is crucial for a wide range of robotic manipulation tasks, where interacting with soft or deformable objects is essential. Current methods struggle to generalise to unseen forces or adapt to new…
We study equivariant deformations of singular curves with an action of a finite flat group scheme, using a simplified version of Illusie's equivariant cotangent complex. We apply these methods in a special case which is relevant for the…
We will have a deep look at the set of all $G$-equivariant maps from the factor Lie group $G$ to the under the action manifold $M$, both from "computational" and "observability" viewpoint. We will also be looking for the existence of…
This article adapts the framework of metamorphosis to solve inverse problems in imaging that includes joint reconstruction and image registration. The deformations in question have two components, one that is a geometric deformation moving…
We describe how geometrical methods can be applied to a system with explicitly time-dependent second-class constraints so as to cast it in Hamiltonian form on its physical phase space. Examples of particular interest are systems which…
In this work we use the deformation procedure and explore the route to obtain distinct field theory models that present similar stability potentials. Starting from systems that interact polynomially or hyperbolically, we use a deformation…
Deformations of spacelike hypersurfaces in space-time play an important role in discussions of general covariance and slicing independence in gravitational theories. In a canonical formulation, they provide the geometrical meaning of gauge…
In this document, we study the interaction between different geometric structures that can be defined as morphisms of sections of the generalized tangent bundle $\mathbb TM:= TM\oplus T^*M\to M$. In particular, we show the behaviour of…
Modelling the physical properties of everyday objects is a fundamental prerequisite for autonomous robots. We present a novel generative adversarial network (Defo-Net), able to predict body deformations under external forces from a single…
We consider the notion of a connection on a principal bundle $P(M,G)$ from the point of view of the action of the tangential group $TG$. This leads to a new definition of a connection and allows to interpret gauge transformations as effect…
Extreme deformation can drastically morph a structure from one structural form into another. Programming such deformation properties into the structure is often challenging and in many cases an impossible task. The morphed forms do not hold…
We construct noncommutative principal bundles deforming principal bundles with a Drinfeld twist (2-cocycle). If the twist is associated with the structure group then we have a deformation of the fibers. If the twist is associated with the…
Deformation theory is treated for locally notherian formal schemes (non necessarily smooth). The cotangent complex is defined in the derived category through the homology localization functor. The basic properties and results of a…
In this paper, we extend the method developed in [17, 18] to curves in the Minkowski plane. The method proposes a way to study deformations of plane curves taking into consideration their geometry as well as their singularities. We deal in…
We study the space of oriented genus g subsurfaces of a fixed manifold M, and in particular its homological properties. We construct a "scanning map" which compares this space to the space of sections of a certain fibre bundle over M…
I examine the structure of the deformed Lorentz transformations in one of the recently-proposed schemes with two observer-independent scales. I develop a technique for the analysis of general combinations of rotations and deformed boosts.…
