The Bounded Negativity Conjecture predicts that for every complex projective surface $X$ there exists a number $b(X)$ such that $C^2\geq -b(X)$ holds for all reduced curves $C\subset X$. For birational surfaces $f:Y\to X$ there have been…
Many techniques for data science and uncertainty quantification demand efficient tools to handle Gaussian random fields, which are defined in terms of their mean functions and covariance operators. Recently, parameterized Gaussian random…
It has been shown that the maximum stable set problem in some infinite graphs, and the kissing number problem in particular, reduces to a minimization problem over the cone of copositive kernels. Optimizing over this infinite dimensional…

Controlling the spectral norm of the Jacobian matrix, which is related to the convolution operation, has been shown to improve generalization, training stability and robustness in CNNs. Existing methods for computing the norm either tend to…
