Cyclic coordinate descent is a classic optimization method that has witnessed a resurgence of interest in machine learning. Reasons for this include its simplicity, speed and stability, as well as its competitive performance on $\ell_1$…

We prove the exactness of a descent sequence relating the algebraic cobordism groups of a scheme and its envelopes. Analogous sequences for Chow groups and K-theory were previously proved by Gillet.

We show that if $2k\geq n$, then a k-connected weak n-category $A$ can be ``delooped'' to a k+1-connected weak n+1-category $Y$ with $Hom_Y(y,y)\cong A$. This is the essential part of the ``stabilization hypothesis'' of Baez and Dolan…

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and…

We give a transport proof of a discrete version of the displacement convexity of entropy on integers (Z), and get, as a consequence, two discrete forms of the Pr{\'e}kopa-Leindler Inequality : the Four Functions Theorem of Ahlswede and…

We study a topological Yang-Mills theory with $N=2$ fermionic symmetry. Our formalism is a field theoretical interpretation of the Donaldson polynomial invariants on compact K\"{a}hler surfaces. We also study an analogous theory on compact…

We wish to give a new proof of one of the main results of Atkin and Lehner. Their theory depends, among other things, on a theorem characterizing forms in S_k(Gamma_0(N)) whose Fourier coefficients satisfy a certain vanishing condition. Our…

We remark that an easy combination of two known results yields a positive answer, up to log(n) terms, to a duality conjecture that goes back to Pietsch. In particular, we show that for any two symmetric convex bodies K,T in R^n, denoting by…

We prove two homotopy decomposition theorems for the loops on co-H-spaces, including a generalization of the Hilton-Milnor Theorem. These are applied to problems arising in algebra, representation theory, toric topology, and the study of…

Goodwillie's rational isomorphism between relative algebraic K-theory and relative cyclic homology, together with the lambda decomposition of cyclic homology, illustrates the close relationships among algebraic K-theory, cyclic homology,…

We give a new proof of the recent K\"unneth theorem for periodic topological cyclic homology (TP) of smooth and proper dg categories over perfect fields of characteristic p>0 due to Blumberg and Mandell. Our result is slightly stronger and…

In his 1973 paper Quillen proved a resolution theorem for the K-Theory of an exact category; his proof was homotopic in nature. By using the main result of a paper by Nenashev, we are able to give an algebraic proof of Quillen's Resolution…

It is proved that for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $K>0$ such that for every integer $t\ge2$, every graph with chromatic number at least $Kt$ contains a minor with $t$ vertices and edge density at least $1-\varepsilon$. Indeed,…

We prove a modularity lifting theorem for minimally ramified deformations of two-dimensional odd Galois representations, over an arbitrary number field. The main ingredient is a generalization of the Taylor-Wiles method in which we patch…

We prove that the propositional translations of the Kneser-Lov\'asz theorem have polynomial size extended Frege proofs and quasi-polynomial size Frege proofs. We present a new counting-based combinatorial proof of the Kneser-Lov\'asz…

We study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N, N=2,3,..., acting on L^2(T) where T=R/2\pi Z. The representations arise in wavelet theory, but are of independent interest. We find and describe the decomposition into…

If X is a complex projective variety with klt singularities, then the mixed Hodge structures on the first two singular cohomology groups are pure. We describe the pieces of the Hodge decomposition in terms of reflexive differential forms.…

Borel's rank theorem identifies the ranks of algebraic $K$-groups of the ring of integers of a number field with the orders of vanishing of the Dedekind zeta function attached to the field. Following the work of Gross, we establish a…

We show how decreasing diagrams introduced in the theory of rewriting systems can be used to prove coherence type theorems in category theory. We apply this method to describe a coherent presentation of the $0$-Hecke monoid…

Generalizing work of Polya, de Bruijn and Newman, we allow the backward heat equation to deform the zeros of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions. There is a real constant \Lambda_Kr (generalizing the de Bruijn-Newman constant \Lambda) such that…
