The problem of Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search is fundamental in computer science and has benefited from significant progress in the past couple of decades. However, most work has been devoted to pointsets whereas complex shapes…
A tangent category is a category equipped with an endofunctor that satisfies certain axioms which capture the abstract properties of the tangent bundle functor from classical differential geometry. Cockett and Cruttwell introduced…
We study the $c$-approximate near neighbor problem under the continuous Fr\'echet distance: Given a set of $n$ polygonal curves with $m$ vertices, a radius $\delta > 0$, and a parameter $k \leq m$, we want to preprocess the curves into a…
Combinatorial ideas are developed in this article to study Chern numbers on ample and numerically effective vector bundles. An effective lower bound for Chern numbers of ample vector bundles is established, which makes some progress towards…
We bound the number of nearly orthogonal vectors with fixed VC-dimension over $\setpm^n$. Our bounds are of interest in machine learning and empirical process theory and improve previous bounds by Haussler. The bounds are based on a simple…
This monograph is devoted to the theory of vector-valued modular forms for orthogonal groups of signature (2,n). Our purpose is multi-layered: (1) to lay a foundation of the theory of vector-valued orthogonal modular forms; (2) to develop…
The Euclidean $k$-means problem is a classical problem that has been extensively studied in the theoretical computer science, machine learning and the computational geometry communities. In this problem, we are given a set of $n$ points in…
A cocycle $\Omega: P \times G \to H$ taking values in a Lie group $H$ for a free right action of $G$ on $P$ defines a principal bundle $Q$ with the structure group $H$ over $P/G.$ The Chern character of a vector bundle associated to $Q$…
The aim of the present exposition is to investigate varieties of almost minimal degree and of low codimension, in particular their Betti diagrams. Here minimal degree is defined as $\deg X = \codim X + 2.$ We describe the structure of the…
We consider the following basic problem: given an $n$-variate degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$ with real coefficients, compute a unit vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ that maximizes $|f(x)|$. Besides its fundamental nature, this problem…
We introduce and investigate a functorial construction which associates coherent sheaves to finite dimensional (restricted) representations of a restricted Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. These are sheaves on locally closed subvarieties of the…
Let $S$ be a ruled surface inside a smooth threefold $W$ and let $E$ be a vector bundle on a formal neighborhood of $S.$ We find minimal conditions under which the local moduli space of $E$ is finite dimensional and smooth. Moreover, we…
A path-following control algorithm enables a system's trajectories under its guidance to converge to and evolve along a given geometric desired path. There exist various such algorithms, but many of them can only guarantee local convergence…
Let $G$ be an infinite discrete group and let $\underline{E}G$ be a classifying space for proper actions of $G$. Every $G$-equivariant vector bundle over $\underline{E}G$ gives rise to a compatible collection of representations of the…
We consider Newton's method for finding zeros of mappings from a manifold $\mathcal X$ into a vector bundle $\mathcal E$. In this setting a connection on $\mathcal E$ is required to render the Newton equation well defined, and a retraction…
This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…
While higher bundles are of clear relevance to higher gauge theory, examples other than abelian bundle gerbes are hard to come across. One would in particular like to see 2-bundles where the structure 2-group is the String 2-group…
The analysis of vector fields is crucial for the understanding of several physical phenomena, such as natural events (e.g., analysis of waves), diffusive processes, electric and electromagnetic fields. While previous work has been focused…
We study a general smallest intersecting ball problem and its soft-margin variant in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces for input objects that are compact and convex. These two problems link and unify a series of fundamental problems in…
We exhaustively classify topological equivariant complex vector bundles over two-torus under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that inequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most) six…
