In this paper, we provide a mathematical framework for characterizing AMD codes that are R-optimal. We introduce a new combinatorial object, the reciprocally-weighted external difference family (RWEDF), which corresponds precisely to an…
In the one-parameter family of power-law maps of the form $f_a(x)=-|x|^{\alpha}+a,$ $\alpha >1,$ we give examples of mutually related dynamically determined quantities, depending on the parameter $a$, such that one is a Pick function of the…
We consider a family of all analytic and univalent functions in the unit disk of the form $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. The aim of this article is to investigate the bounds of the difference of moduli of initial successive coefficients,…
We describe \textit{deep exponential families} (DEFs), a class of latent variable models that are inspired by the hidden structures used in deep neural networks. DEFs capture a hierarchy of dependencies between latent variables, and are…
Given a family $\mathcal{F}=\{A_1,\dots,A_s\}$ of subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_n$, define $\Delta \mathcal{F}$ to be the multiset of all (cyclic) distances dist$(x,y)$, where $\{x,y\} \subset A_i$, $x \neq y$, for some $i=1,\dots,s$. Taking…
Some of the most interesting quantities associated with a factor graph are its marginals and its partition sum. For factor graphs \emph{without cycles} and moderate message update complexities, the sum-product algorithm (SPA) can be used to…
We construct algebraic families of smooth affine $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractible varieties of every dimension $n\geq 4$ over fields of characteristic zero which are non-isomorphic to affine spaces and potential counterexamples to the Zariski…
We show that the normalized supercharacters of principal admissible modules, associated to each integrable atypical module over the affine Lie superalgebra $\widehat{sl}_{2|1}$ can be modified, using Zwegers' real analytic corrections, to…
We find new constructions of infinite families of skew Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian groups under the assumption of the existence of cyclotomic strongly regular graphs. Our construction is based on choosing cyclotomic…
We introduce the notion of quantum duplicates of an (associative, unital) algebra, motivated by the problem of constructing toy-models for quantizations of certain configuration spaces in quantum mechanics. The proposed (algebraic) model…
We show that diagrammatic sets, a topologically sound alternative to polygraphs and strict $\omega$-categories, admit an internal notion of equivalence in the sense of coinductive weak invertibility. We prove that equivalences have the…
In this work we use the number classification in families of the form 6n+1, and 6n+5 with n integer (Such families contain all odd prime numbers greater than 3 and other compound numbers related with primes). We will use this kind of…
In this paper we explicitly determine all indicators for groups isomorphic to the semidirect product of two cyclic groups by an automorphism of prime order, as well as the generalized quaternion groups. We then compute the indicators for…
We examine a parameterized family of functions F_a, all of which are continuous and some of which are nowhere or almost nowhere differentiable, we explore the behavior of F'_a and F"_a almost everywhere for different values of a, focusing…
We construct k-parameter families of rational surface automorphisms for any k. These are automorphisms of surfaces X, which are constructed from iterated blowups over the projective plane. In certain cases: we are able to determine the…
Seidel switching is a classical operation on graphs which plays a central role in the theory of two-graphs, signed graphs, and switching classes. In this paper we focus on those switches which leave a given graph invariant up to…
Starting from infinitely many supercompact cardinals, we force a model of ZFC where $\aleph_{\omega^2+1}$ satisfies simultaneously a strong principle of reflection, called $\Delta$-reflection, and a version of the square principle, denoted…
For any block of a finite group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$ which has dihedral, semidihedral, or generalized quaternion defect groups, we determine explicitly the decomposition of the associated diagonal…
This paper provides a combinatorial characterization of weak algebraic manipulation detection (AMD) codes via a kind of generalized external difference families called bounded standard weighted external difference families (BSWEDFs). By…
We characterize mutation-finite cluster algebras of rank at least 3 using positive semi-definite quadratic forms. In particular, we associate with every unpunctured bordered surface a positive semi-definite quadratic space $V$, and with…
