Continual learning systems operating in fixed-dimensional spaces face a fundamental geometric barrier: the flat manifold problem. When experience is represented as a linear trajectory in Euclidean space, the geodesic distance between…

We introduce a framework to define coalgebra and bialgebra structures on two-dimensional (2D) square lattices, extending the algebraic theory of Hopf algebras and quantum groups beyond the one-dimensional (1D) setting. Our construction is…

We propose a correspondence between certain multiband linear cellular automata - models of computation widely used in the description of physical phenomena - and endomorphisms of certain algebraic unipotent groups over finite fields. The…

A "biased expansion" of a graph is a kind of branched covering graph with additional structure related to combinatorial homotopy of circles. Some but not all biased expansions are constructed from groups ("group expansions"); these include…

Differential calculus on discrete sets is developed in the spirit of noncommutative geometry. Any differential algebra on a discrete set can be regarded as a `reduction' of the `universal differential algebra' and this allows a systematic…

We introduce topological contact dynamics of a smooth manifold carrying a cooriented contact structure, generalizing previous work in the case of a symplectic structure [MO07] or a contact form [BS12]. A topological contact isotopy is not…

Generalizing the canonical symplectization of contact manifolds, we construct an infinite dimensional non-linear Stiefel manifold of weighted embeddings into a contact manifold. This space carries a symplectic structure such that the…

Auxiliary tasks facilitate learning in situations where data is scarce or the principal task of interest is extremely complex. This idea is primarily inspired by the improved generalization capability induced by solving multiple tasks…

We establish a connection between tangles, a concept from structural graph theory that plays a central role in Robertson and Seymour's graph minor project, and hierarchical clustering. Tangles cannot only be defined for graphs, but in fact…

The set theory relations \in, \backslash, \Delta, \cap, and \cup have corollaries in subspace relations. Geometric Algebra is introduced as the ideal framework to explore these subspace operations. The relations \in, \backslash, and \Delta…

A $\nabla$-algebra is a natural generalization of a Heyting algebra, unifying several algebraic structures, including bounded lattices, Heyting algebras, temporal Heyting algebras, and the algebraic representation of dynamic topological…

We formalise the teleparallel version of extended geometry (including gravity) by the introduction of a complex, the differential of which provides the linearised dynamics. The main point is the natural replacement of the two-derivative…

Over the last two decades, the Latent Position Model (LPM) has become a prominent tool to obtain model-based visualizations of networks. However, the geometric structure of the LPM is inherently symmetric, in the sense that outgoing and…

Based on a variation of the BIP operational semantics using the offer predicate introduced in our previous work, we extend the algebras used to model glue operators in BIP to encompass priorities. This extension uses the Algebra of Causal…
