Keeping track of all relevant recent publications and experimental results for a research area is a challenging task. Prior work has demonstrated the efficacy of information extraction models in various scientific areas. Recently, several…
Enhancing sampling and analyzing simulations are central issues in molecular simulation. Recently, we introduced PLUMED, an open-source plug-in that provides some of the most popular molecular dynamics (MD) codes with implementations of a…
Certain new inequalities for the sums of factorials are presented.
We define a class of algebras, the semilattices of Mal'cev blocks (for short, SMB algebras). In a nutshell, these algebras are semilattices in which each element gets blown up into a Mal'cev algebra. We publish for the first time our old…
This is a survey paper that also contains some new results. It will appear in the proceedings of the AMS summer research institute on Algebraic Geometry at Santa Cruz.
Structured prediction problems are one of the fundamental tools in machine learning. In order to facilitate algorithm development for their numerical solution, we collect in one place a large number of datasets in easy to read formats for a…
The blog is somewhat shorter than in previous years, It contains new insights in a variety of areas, including computability, quantum algorithmic version of the SMB theorem, descriptions of groups (both discrete and profinite), metric…
Survey of several forms of updating, with a practical illustrative example. We study several updating (conditioning) schemes that emerge naturally from a common scenarion to provide some insights into their meaning. Updating is a subtle…
A general, and very basic introduction to QCD sum rules is presented, with emphasis on recent issues to be described at length in other papers in this volume of Modern Physics Letters A. Collectively, these papers constitute the proceedings…
The 2007 Midwest Geometry Conference included a panel discussion devoted to open problems and the general direction of future research in fields related to the main themes of the conference. This paper summarizes the comments made during…
This document collects contributions to the Open Problem List in Billiards and Quantitative Symplectic Geometry, compiled following discussions during the workshop ``Billiards and quantitative symplectic geometry'' that took place at the…
The formulas discussed in the previous version are not new.
These are informal notes written in 2007 that outline the local and global quantum Langlands program. (I decided to make them public in view of the revived interest in the subject.)
This brief note gives a survey on results relating to existence of closed points on schemes, including an elementary topological characterization of the schemes with (at least one) closed point.
Motivated by the fact that not all nonconvex optimization problems are difficult to solve, we survey in this paper three widely-used ways to reveal the hidden convex structure for different classes of nonconvex optimization problems.…
We obtained a new formula for $\pi$.
In the present paper we prove that for any fixed $1<c<7/6$ there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $[n^c], [n^c]+1$ and we also establish an asymptotic formula in given interval.
We collect a number of open questions concerning Diophantine equations, Diophantine Approximation and transcendental numbers. Revised version: corrected typos and added references.
This expository paper discusses some conjectures related to visibility and blockers for sets of points in the plane.
The article contains a preliminary glance at balanced clustering problems. Basic balanced structures and combinatorial balanced problems are briefly described. A special attention is targeted to various balance/unbalance indices (including…
