We study regular expression membership testing: Given a regular expression of size $m$ and a string of size $n$, decide whether the string is in the language described by the regular expression. Its classic $O(nm)$ algorithm is one of the…
As an essential operation in data cleaning, the similarity join has attracted considerable attention from the database community. In this paper, we study string similarity joins with edit-distance constraints, which find similar string…
We prove that for any known Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ having none invariants for the coadjoint representation, the absence of invariants is equivalent to the existence of a left invariant exact symplectic structure on the corresponding Lie…
A mimetic discretization of the Abelian Chern-Simons theory is presented. The study relies on the formulation of a theory of differential forms in the lattice, including a consistent definition of the Hodge duality operation. Explicit…
We consider a finite collection of line bundles $\Phi$ introduced by Bondal on a smooth, projective toric variety $X$. For any coherent sheaf $F$ on $X$, we construct minimal resolutions of $F$ by line bundles in $\Phi$, up to twist, with…
By relating fine and hyperfine spittings for l=1 states in bottomium we can factor out the less tractable part of the perturbative and nonperturbative effects. Reliable predictions for one of the fine splittings and the hyperfine splitting…
Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a short Artin local ring (i.e., $\mathfrak{m}^3 = 0$ and $\mathfrak{m}^2 \neq 0$). Assume $A$ is not a hypersurface ring. We show there exists $c_A \geq 2$ such that if $M$ is any finitely generated module with…
In a recent paper A. Merkurjev constructed an exact sequence which includes as one of the terms the group of degree 3 normalized cohomological invariants of a semisimple algebraic group G, greatly extending results of M. Rost for simply…
We associate two modules, the $G$-parking critical module and the toppling critical module, to an undirected connected graph $G$. The $G$-parking critical module and the toppling critical module are canonical modules (with suitable twists)…
Chern-Simons field theory based on a compact non-abelian gauge group is studied as a theory of knots and links in three dimensions. A method to obtain the invariants for links made from braids of upto four strands is developed. This…
Small Coxeter groups are precisely the ones for which the Tits representation is integral, which makes the study of their congruence subgroups relevant. The symmetric group $S_n$ has three natural extensions, namely, the braid group $B_n$,…
We show that almost split sequences in the category of comodules over a coalgebra with finite-dimensional right-hand term are direct limits of almost split sequences over finite dimensional subcoalgebras. In previous work we showed that…
Three types of numerical data are provided for simple Lie groups of any type and rank. This data is indispensable for Fourier-like expansions of multidimensional digital data into finite series of $C-$ or $S-$functions on the fundamental…
We prove the nontriviality, at all integral levels n, of the filtration, F_n, of the classical topological knot concordance group recently defined by the authors and Kent Orr [COT]. Recall that this filtration is significant not only…
A collection $\mathcal{C}$ of $k$-element subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,m\}$ is weakly separated if for each $I, J \in \mathcal{C}$, when the integers $1,2,\ldots,m$ are arranged around in a circle, there is a chord separating $I \backslash J$…
In this paper, we show that the minimum number of vertices whose removal disconnects a connected strongly regular graph into non-singleton components, equals the size of the neighborhood of an edge for many graphs. These include blocks…
For a sequence $S$ over a finite abelian group, let $MZ(S)$ denote the length of the shortest nonempty zero-sum subsequence of $S$. We prove that if $G$ is finite abelian of order $n$ and $S$ has length $n$, then $MZ(S)\le n-|\supp(S)|+1$.…
We show that the subgroup of the knot concordance group generated by links of isolated complex singularities intersects the subgroup of algebraically slice knots in an infinite rank subgroup.
We discuss weak coupling perturbation theory for lattice actions in which the fermions couple to smeared gauge links. The normally large integrals that appear in lattice perturbation theory are drastically reduced. Even without detailed…
The latest experimental measurements of the hyperfine splitting $E_{\rm{hfs}}=M_{\Upsilon(1 S)}-M_{\eta_b(1 S)}$ done by the Belle collaboration and the perturbative and lattice QCD predictions show a tension with the current extraction…
