Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) has previously been shown to be a useful decomposition for multivariate data. We interpret the factorization in a new way and use it to generate missing attributes from test data. We provide a joint…

We prove that for any singular integral affine variety $X$ of finite presentation over a perfect field defined over $\mathbb Z$, there exists a smooth morphism from $Y$ onto $X$ such that $Y$ admits a resolution. That is, there exists a…

We present general techniques for constructing functorial factorizations appropriate for model structures that are not known to be cofibrantly generated. Our methods use "algebraic" characterizations of fibrations to produce factorizations…

We give a combinatorial algorithm for equivariant embedded resolution of singularities of a toric variety defined over a perfect field. The algorithm is realized by a finite succession of blowings-up with smooth invariant centres that…

We outline a novel clustering scheme for simplicial complexes that produces clusters of simplices in a way that is sensitive to the homology of the complex. The method is inspired by, and can be seen as a higher-dimensional version of,…

We propose an algorithm for the non-negative factorization of an occurrence tensor built from heterogeneous networks. We use l0 norm to model sparse errors over discrete values (occurrences), and use decomposed factors to model the embedded…

We study the structure of the category of representations of $\mathbf{FA}$, the category of finite sets and all maps, mostly working over a field of characteristic zero. This category is not semi-simple and exhibits interesting features. We…

We demonstrate a method for general linear optical networks that allows one to factorize any SU($n$) matrix in terms of two SU($n-1)$ blocks coupled by an SU(2) entangling beam splitter. The process can be recursively continued in an…

We prove a weak factorization result on birational maps of Deligne-Mumford stacks, and deduce the following: Let $U \subset X$ be an open embedding of smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks such that $D = X-U$ is a normal crossings divisor, then the…

We extend a factorization due to Krein to arbitrary analytic functions from the upper half-plane to itself. The factorization represents every such function as a product of fractional linear factors times a function which, generally, has…

We present an approximation by conjugation scheme to obtain real-analytic diffeomorphisms of odd dimensional spheres that are weakly mixing with respect to the volume.

We define a notion of a weak canonical base for a partial type. This notion is weaker than the usual canonical base for an amalgamation base. We prove that certain family of partial types have a weak canonical base. This family clearly…

We show that the Grauert blow-down of a holomorphic negative line bundle $L$ over a compact complex space is a quadratic transform if and only if $k_0L^*$ is very ample and $(k_0+1)L^*$ is globally generated, where $k_0$ is the initial…

In this paper, an algorithm building the effective homology version of the pushout of the simplicial morphisms $f:X\rightarrow Y$ and $g:X\rightarrow Z$, where $X,Y$ and $Z$ are simplicial sets with effective homology is presented.

We prove that the irreducible desingularization of a singularity given by the Grauert blow down of a negative holomorphic vector bundle over a compact complex manifold is unique up to isomorphism, and as an application, we show that two…

We review the description of inclusive single unpolarized light hadron production using fragmentation functions in the framework of the factorization theorem. We summarize the factorization of quantities into perturbatively calculable…

If K/k is a function field in one variable of positive characteristic, we describe a general algorithm to factor one-variable polynomials with coefficients in K. The algorithm is flexible enough to find factors subject to additional…

A factorization of a permutation into transpositions is called "primitive" if its factors are weakly ordered. We discuss the problem of enumerating primitive factorizations of permutations, and its place in the hierarchy of previously…

In this article we will apply the first- and second-order supersymmetric quantum mechanics to obtain new exactly-solvable real potentials departing from the inverted oscillator potential. This system has some special properties; in…

The weak factorization theorem for birational maps is used to prove that for all nonnegative i the ith mod 2 Betti number of compact nonsingular real algebraic varieties has a unique extension to a "virtual Betti number" beta_i defined for…
