Recently, one has seen a surge of interest in developing such methods including ones for learning such representations for (undirected) graphs (while preserving important properties). However, most of the work to date on embedding graphs…
This is an overview paper that describes Eliashberg's Legendrian surgery approach to wrapped Floer cohomology and use it to derive the basic relations between various holomorphic curve theories with additional algebraic constructions. We…
Maps from links in thickened surfaces to flat-virtual links help to construct invariants of links using invariants of flat-virtual links. This work is dedicated to investigation of equivalence and invariants of flat-virtual diagrams…
We will present some (formal) arguments that any Feynman diagram can be understood as a particular case of a Horn-type multivariable hypergeometric function. The advantages and disadvantages of this type of approach to the evaluation of…
A general theory of frames of reference proposed in a preceding publication is considered here in the framework of the post-Newtonian approximation, assuming that the frame of reference is centered on a time-like geodesic. The problem of…
We introduce the affine Vogan diagrams of complex simple Lie algebras. These are generalizations of Vogan diagrams, and we study the involutions represented by them. We apply these diagrams to study the symmetric pairs, in particular the…
We discuss 3-manifolds which are cyclic coverings of the 3-sphere, branched over 2-bridge knots and links. Different descriptions of these manifolds are presented: polyhedral, Heegaard diagram, Dehn surgery and coloured graph constructions.…
We establish a correspondence between trisections of smooth, compact, oriented $4$--manifolds with connected boundary and diagrams describing these trisected $4$--manifolds. Such a diagram comes in the form of a compact, oriented surface…
We develop a calculus for diagrams of knotted objects. We define Arrow presentations, which encode the crossing informations of a diagram into arrows in a way somewhat similar to Gauss diagrams, and more generally w-tree presentations,…
This paper introduces gluing diagrams a combinatorial tool to construct homomorphisms between the shift pseudogroups of directed graphs and thus also their full groups of shifts. We will establish which of these diagrams produce…
We study the algebraic and analytic structure of Feynman integrals by proposing an operation that maps an integral into pairs of integrals obtained from a master integrand and a corresponding master contour. This operation is a coaction. It…
We develop a calculus of surgery data, called bridged links, which involves besides links also pairs of balls that describe one-handle attachements. As opposed to the usual link calculi of Kirby and others this description uses only…
Embedding diagrams have been used extensively to visualize the properties of curved space in Relativity. We introduce a new kind of embedding diagram based on the {\it extrinsic} curvature (instead of the intrinsic curvature). Such an…
We investigate Feynman diagrams which are calculable in terms of generalized one-loop functions, and explore how the presence or absence of transcendentals in their counterterms reflects the entanglement of link diagram constructed from…
One must add arrows which are forced by transitivity to form the transitive closure of a directed graph. We introduce a construction of a transitive directed graph which is formed by adding vertices instead of arrows and which preserves the…
This expository note outlines why it is sometimes useful to consider the bigraded type A link homology theories as associated with the Lie algebras gl(N) instead of sl(N).
In this paper, we extend the formal definition of topological surgery by introducing new notions in order to model natural phenomena exhibiting it. On the one hand, the common features of the presented natural processes are captured by our…
Causal diagrams are logic and graphical tools that depict assumptions about presumed causal relations. Such diagrams have proven effective in tackling a variety of problems in social sciences and epidemiology research yet remain foreign to…
A link diagram can be considered as a $4$-valent graph embedded in the $2$-sphere and divides the sphere into complementary regions. In this paper, we show that any link has a diagram with only triangles and quadrilaterals. This extends…
The aim of this text is to establish some relations between Markov chains in Dirichlet Environments on directed graphs and certain hypergeometric integrals associated with a particular arrangement of hyperplanes. We deduce from these…
