We prove that parities on virtual knots come from invariant 1-cycles on the arcs of knot diagrams. In turn, the invariant cycles are determined by quasi-indices on the crossings of the diagrams. The found connection between the parities and…

We prove that there exists an online algorithm that for any sequence of vectors $v_1,\ldots,v_T \in \mathbb{R}^n$ with $\|v_i\|_2 \leq 1$, arriving one at a time, decides random signs $x_1,\ldots,x_T \in \{ -1,1\}$ so that for every $t \le…

An active research line within the broader field of network science is the one concerning link prediction. Close in scope to network reconstruction, link prediction targets specific connections with the aim of uncovering the missing ones,…

Trivial links are unique up to number of link components, but they can be hard to recognize from arbitrary diagrams. We define a new measure of the complexity of a link embedding, the crumple, and show how this may be used to measure…

This paper studies how to use relation algebras, which are useful for high-level specification and verification, for proving the correctness of lower-level array-based implementations of algorithms. We give a simple relation-algebraic…

A procedure for the construction and the classification of multilattices in arbitrary dimension is proposed. The algorithm allows to determine explicitly the location of the points of a multilattice given its space group, and to determine…

We consider an online version of the well-studied network utility maximization problem, where users arrive one by one and an operator makes irrevocable decisions for each user without knowing the details of future arrivals. We propose a…

A group invariant for links in thickened closed orientable surfaces is studied. Associated polynomial invariants are defined. The group detects nontriviality of a virtual link and determines its virtual genus.

In this paper, we propose a probabilistic algorithm suitable for any linear code $C$ to determine whether a given vector $\mathbf{x}$ belongs to $ C$. The algorithm achieves $O(n\log n)$ time complexity, $ O(n^2)$ space complexity and with…

As neural networks (NNs) are increasingly introduced into safety-critical domains, there is a growing need to formally verify NNs before deployment. In this work we focus on the formal verification problem of NN equivalence which aims to…

Recently, a new algorithm to test equivalence of two cyclic codes has been introduced which is efficient and produced useful results. In this work, we generalize this algorithm to constacyclic codes. As an application of the algorithm we…

To what extent are two images picturing the same 3D surfaces? Even when this is a known scene, the answer typically requires an expensive search across scale space, with matching and geometric verification of large sets of local features.…

We present a new approach, called a lazy matching, to the problem of on-line matching on bipartite graphs. Imagine that one side of a graph is given and the vertices of the other side are arriving on-line. Originally, incoming vertex is…

We prove that any arc-presentation of the unknot admits a monotonic simplification by elementary moves; this yields a simple algorithm for recognizing the unknot. We obtain similar results for split links and composite links.
