A regularization procedure developed in [1] for the integral curvature invariants on manifolds with conical singularities is generalized to the case of squashed cones. In general, the squashed conical singularities do not have rotational…
Similarity scores in face recognition represent the proximity between pairs of images as computed by a matching algorithm. Given a large set of images and the proximities between all pairs, a similarity score space is defined. Cluster…
The subject of this paper is the problem of arrangement of a real nonsingular algebraic curve on a real non-singular algebraic surface. This paper contains new restrictions on this arrangement extending Rokhlin and Kharlamov-Gudkov-Krakhnov…
We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…
Traditional clustering identifies groups of objects that share certain qualities. Tangles do the converse: they identify groups of qualities that often occur together. They can thereby discover, relate, and structure types: of behaviour,…
Spectral clustering is one of the most popular clustering methods for finding clusters in a graph, which has found many applications in data mining. However, the input graph in those applications may have many missing edges due to error in…
We use Picard-Lefschetz theory to prove a new formula for intersection numbers of twisted cocycles associated to a given arrangement of hyperplanes. In a special case when this arrangement produces the moduli space of punctured Riemann…
We give a presentation of a finite crystallographic reflection group in terms of an arbitrary seed in the corresponding cluster algebra of finite type and interpret the presentation in terms of companion bases in the associated root system.
This paper introduces an intersection theory problem for maps into a smooth manifold equipped with a stratification. We investigate the problem in the special case when the target is the unitary group and the domain is a circle. The first…
A class of trigonometric interpolation splines depending on parameter vectors, selected convergence factors and interpolation factors is considered. The concept of crosslink grids and interpolation grids is introduced; these grids can match…
Classification of cluster variables in cluster algebras (in particular, Grassmannian cluster algebras) is an important problem, which has direct application to computations of scattering amplitudes in physics. In this paper, we apply the…
We prove that the skein categories of Walker--Johnson-Freyd satisfy excision. This allows us to conclude that skein categories are $k$-linear factorisation homology and taking the free cocompletion of skein categories recovers locally…
This is a short note on various results about the combinatorial properties of line arrangements in terms of the Chern numbers of the corresponding log surfaces. This resembles the study of the geography of surfaces of general type. We prove…
We calculate the Roger-Yang skein algebra of the annulus with two interior punctures, $ \mathcal S^{RY}(\Sigma_{0, 2, 2})$, and show there is a surjective homomorphism from this algebra to the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of the closed…
Fock-Goncharov's moduli spaces $\mathscr{X}_{{\rm PGL}_3,\frak{S}}$ of framed ${\rm PGL}_3$-local systems on punctured surfaces $\frak{S}$ provide prominent examples of cluster $\mathscr{X}$-varieties and higher Teichm\"uller spaces. In a…
Each quiver appearing in a seed of a cluster algebra determines a corresponding group, which we call a cluster group, which is defined via a presentation. Grant and Marsh showed that, for quivers appearing in seeds of cluster algebras of…
We obtain a presentation of Schur algebras (and q-Schur algebras) by generators and relations which is compatible with the usual presentation of the enveloping algebra (quantized enveloping algebra) corresponding to the Lie algebra gl(n) of…
Molecular structures of RNA molecules reconstructed from X-ray crystallography frequently contain errors. Motivated by this problem we examine clustering on a torus since RNA shapes can be described by dihedral angles. A previously…
This paper is a slightly extended version of the talk I gave at the Open Problems in Algebraic Combinatorics conference at the University of Minnesota in May 2022. We introduce two strict order relations on lattice paths and formulate…
By introducing a finer version of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra, we show how to decompose the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a surface into elementary blocks corresponding to the triangles in an ideal triangulation of the surface.…
