We introduce decomposition complexes of posets, which generalize order complexes. The main advantage of our construction is that decomposition complexes are closed under taking products. Other special instances of this theory include nested…

Two main concepts studied in machine learning theory are generalization gap (difference between train and test error) and excess risk (difference between test error and the minimum possible error). While information-theoretic tools have…

Time-periodic dynamical systems occur commonly both in nature and as engineered systems. Large-scale linear time-periodic dynamical systems, for example, may arise through linearization of a nonlinear system about a given periodic solution…

The interleaving distance, although originally developed for persistent homology, has been generalized to measure the distance between functors modeled on many posets or even small categories. Existing theories require that such a poset…

When an algebraic logic based on a poset instead of a lattice is investigated then there is a natural problem how to introduce the connective implication to be everywhere defined and satisfying (left) adjointness with the connective…

By using different interface adapters for different methods, it is possible to construct a maximally covering web of interface adapters which incurs minimum loss during interface adaptation. We introduce a polynomial-time algorithm that can…

We propose a novel and natural architecture for decentralized control that is applicable whenever the underlying system has the structure of a partially ordered set (poset). This controller architecture is based on the concept of Moebius…

Pose graph optimization is a special case of the simultaneous localization and mapping problem where the only variables to be estimated are pose variables and the only measurements are inter-pose constraints. The vast majority of pose graph…

We analyze an exchange algorithm for the numerical solution total-variation regularized inverse problems over the space M($\Omega$) of Radon measures on a subset $\Omega$ of R d. Our main result states that under some regularity conditions,…

For a finite poset $P$, we study the expected size of the intersection of two independent uniformly random antichains. Equivalently, we evaluate the sum of $|A\cap A'|$ over all ordered pairs of antichains. For general posets this statistic…
