Each knot invariant can be extended to singular knots according to the skein rule. A Vassiliev invariant of order at most $n$ is defined as a knot invariant that vanishes identically on knots with more than $n$ double points. A chord…
In this paper, we develop an algebraic K-stability theory (e.g. special test configuration theory and optimal destabilization theory) for log Fano $\mathbb R$-pairs, and construct a proper K-moduli space to parametrize K-polystable log Fano…
This paper is a sequel to the paper by A. Losev and Yu. Manin [LoMa1], in which new moduli stacks $\bar{L}_{g,S}$ of pointed curves were introduced. They classify curves endowed with a family of smooth points divided into two groups, such…
Recently Brian Hartwig and the second author found a presentation for the three-point $sl_2$ loop algebra by generators and relations. To obtain this presentation they defined a Lie algebra $\boxtimes$ by generators and relations, and…
We survey some of the mechanisms used to prove that naturally defined sequences in combinatorics are log-concave. Among these mechanisms are Alexandrov's inequality for mixed discriminants, the Alexandrov Fenchel inequality for mixed…
This thesis is divided into three parts. The first part deals with cylindric plane partitions. The second with lambda-determinants and the third with commutators in semi-circular systems. For more detailed abstract please see inside.…
This book is a detailed introduction to the theory of finite type (Vassiliev) knot invariants, with a stress on its combinatorial aspects. It is intended to serve both as a textbook for readers with no or little background in this area, and…
The forcing relation of braids has been introduced for a 2-dimensional analogue of the Sharkovskii order on periods for maps of the interval. In this paper, by making use of the Nielsen fixed point theory and a representation of braid…
We study moduli spaces of twisted maps to a smooth pair in arbitrary genus, and give geometric explanations for previously known comparisons between orbifold and logarithmic Gromov--Witten invariants. Namely, we study the space of twisted…
We present an algebraic view on logic programming, related to proof theory and more specifically linear logic and geometry of interaction. Within this construction, a characterization of logspace (deterministic and non-deterministic)…
Markov logic uses weighted formulas to compactly encode a probability distribution over possible worlds. Despite the use of logical formulas, Markov logic networks (MLNs) can be difficult to interpret, due to the often counter-intuitive…
We prove a formula expressing the Log Gromov-Witten Invariants of a product of log smooth varieties $V \times W$ in terms of the invariants of $V$ and $W$. This extends results of F. Qu and Y.P. Lee, who introduced this formula analogously…
Relationships between moduli spaces of curves and sheaves on 3-folds are presented starting with the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence proposed more than 20 years ago with D. Maulik, N. Nekrasov, and A. Okounkov. The descendent…
This paper is in continuation of our work in \cite{PNM}, wherein we introduced generalized Baskakov Kantorovich operators $K_n^a(f;x)$ and established some approximation properties e.g. local approximation, weighted approximation,…
This is a pedagogical introduction covering maps of metric spaces, Gromov-Hausdorff distance and its "physical" meaning, and dilation structures as a convenient simplification of an exhaustive database of maps of a metric space into…
An iterated refinement procedure for the Guruswami-Sudan list decoding algorithm for Generalised Reed-Solomon codes based on Alekhnovich's module minimisation is proposed. The method is parametrisable and allows variants of the usual list…
$\{log\}$ is a programming language at the intersection of Constraint Logic Programming, set programming and declarative programming. But $\{log\}$ is also a satisfiability solver for a theory of finite sets and finite binary relations.…
The present work stemmed from the study of the problem of harmonic analysis on the infinite-dimensional unitary group U(\infty). That problem consisted in the decomposition of a certain 4-parameter family of unitary representations, which…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve of genus $g$ over $k$. Fix an integer $n \geq 2$, and let $S^n(X)$ be the $n$-fold symmetric product of $X$. In this…
In this paper, we introduce a set representation called polynomial logical zonotopes for performing exact and computationally efficient reachability analysis on logical systems. We prove that through this polynomial-like construction, we…
