Matrix Factorization plays an important role in machine learning such as Non-negative Matrix Factorization, Principal Component Analysis, Dictionary Learning, etc. However, most of the studies aim to minimize the loss by measuring the…
Stewart has presented a position-space derivation of the identity for the volume integral of a product of two vector fields noted by Gubarev, Stodolsky, and Zakharov, and applied the results to classical electromagnetic theory. I present a…
A general method for the reduction of coupled spherical harmonic products is presented. When the total angular coupling is zero, the reduction leads to an explicitly real expression in the scalar products within the unit vector arguments of…
Let M be a smooth strictly convex closed surface in space and denote by H the set of points x in the exterior of M such that all the tangent segments from x to M have equal lengths. In this note we prove that if H is either a closed surface…
In this article, we study the generalized Poincare problem from the opposite perspective, by establishing lower bounds on the degree of the vector field in terms of invariants of the variety.
We consider the contribution to the entropy from fields in the background of a curved time-independent metric. To account for the curvature of space, we postulate a position-dependent UV cutoff. We argue that a UV cutoff on energy naturally…
We prove that for each positive integer g, there exists a complete minimal surface of genus g that is properly embedded in three-dimensional euclidean space and that is asymptotic to the helicoid.
We study real-valued valuations on the space of Lipschitz functions over the Euclidean unit sphere $S^{n-1}$. After introducing an appropriate notion of convergence, we show that continuous valuations are bounded on sets which are bounded…
We prove that the half-integer valued local index of an isolated umbilic point on a $C^{3+\alpha}$-smooth convex surface in Euclidean 3-space is less than two. The approach is to study the co-kernel of an associated Riemann-Hilbert boundary…
We give a method to determine relative periodic orbits in point vortex systems: it consists mainly into perform a symplectic reduction on a fixed point submanifold in order to obtain a two-dimensional reduced phase space. The method is…
Unit-vector fields $\nvec$ on a convex polyhedron $P$ subject to tangent boundary conditions provide a simple model of nematic liquid crystals in prototype bistable displays. The equilibrium and metastable configurations correspond to…
The main result is the identification of the orthogonal complement of the subalgebra of conformal vector field inside the algebra of all vector fields of a compact flat 2-manifold. As a fundamental tool, the complete Hodge decomposition for…
We prove that all star vector fields, including Lorenz attractors and multisingular hyperbolic vector fields, admit the intermediate entropy property. To be precise, if $X$ is a star vector field with $h_{top}(X)>0$, then for any $h\in…
This paper studies the problem of finding a three-dimensional solenoidal vector field such that both the vector field and its curl are tangential to a given family of toroidal surfaces. We show that this question can be translated into the…
We derive a general formalism that relates the spectrum of two-particle systems in a finite volume to physical scattering amplitudes, taking into account the presence of any left-hand branch cuts due to single-particle exchanges. The method…
In this paper we study surfaces with minimal potential energy under gravitational forces, called singular minimal surfaces. We prove that a singular minimal ruled surface in a Euclidean $3-$space is cylindrical, in particular as an…
A Euclidean minimal torus with planar ends gives rise to an immersed Willmore torus in the conformal 3--sphere $S^3=\R^3\cup \{\infty\}$. The class of Willmore tori obtained this way is given a spectral theoretic characterization as the…
We consider the bifurcation problem u'' + \lambda u = N(u) with two point boundary conditions where N(u) is a general nonlinear term which may also depend on the eigenvalue \lambda. A new derivation of a variational principle for the lowest…
Explicit lower bounds for the length of the shortest opaque set for the unit disc and the unit square in the Euclidean plane are derived. The results are based on an explicit application of the general method of Kawamura, Moriyama, Otachi…
We consider possible generation of singularities of a vector field transported by diffeomorphisms with derivatives of uniformly bounded determinants. A particular case of volume preserving diffeomrphism is the most important, since it has…
