On finite-dimensional encoding/decoding theorems for neural operators

Recently, versions of neural networks with infinite-dimensional affine operators inside the computational units (``neural operator'' networks) have been applied to learn solutions to differential equations. To enable practical computations, one employs finite-dimensional encoding/decoding theorems of the following kind: every...

On the Diophantine Equation Involving Elementary Symmetric Polynomials and the Decomposition of Unity

We consider the equality of the values of the $n$th and $k$th elementary symmetric polynomials of $n$ not necessarily distinct positive integers. For $k < n$, we prove that this equation always has a solution, but only finitely many solutions. Furthermore, we consider the equality of the values of the $n$th and $(n-2)$th elementary...

The Fourth Geometry II: From Angle Axioms to Metric Foundations

This paper is a sequel to arXiv:2511.01024 (Base 1), where an axiomatic framework for angles and the foundations of difference-angle geometry were introduced. In difference-angle geometry, where the difference of slopes of lines is treated as a primary angular quantity (the difference angle), we reconstruct the focal structure of...

Classification of invariant tight contact structures on the 3-space, -ball and -sphere

We prove some classification results for tight contact structure in the 3-space, -ball and -sphere that are invariant with respect to some arbitrary involution, that is conjugated to the standard rotation around the x-axis. Unlike the classical scenario, a new integral torsion appears, dictating a splitting between equivalence...

Some Results on Causal Modalities in General Spacetimes

Causality is one of the fundamental structures of spacetimes, determining the possible behaviour and propagation of physical information. Causal structure can be analysed through the various modal logics it induces. The modal logics for the chronological and causal relations of the archetypal Minkowski spacetime have been classified....

The Shift Operator Calculus for Stationary Time Series Analysis

The article establishes a rigorous shift operator calculus for stationary time series modeling, addressing a certain gap in the literature. It provides proofs of existence and isometry for the transfer function operators $f(B)$ and $f(T)$ where $B$ is the bilateral shift operator and $T$ is the unilateral shift operator for different...

Tensor Abelian Geometry of VI-modules

In this short note, we study the spectrum of prime Serre ideals of global representations for noetherian families. In particular, we prove that the spectrum of prime Serre ideals of finitely generated VI-modules is homeomorphic to N^{*}, the one-point compactification of N, which differs from the Balmer spectrum of derived VI-modules....

Principal $p-$frequency estimates on non-compact manifolds with negative Ricci curvature

We establish a lower bound for the principal $p-$frequency $λ_{1,p}(Ω)$ on a bounded domain $Ω$ in a non-compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n.$ Under the assumption that the Ricci curvature satisfies $\operatorname{Ric} \geq (n-1)K$ with $K<0,$ we prove that $λ_{1,p}(Ω) > \barλ_{D,K,n}$, where $D$ is the diameter of $Ω$ and...

Non-linear traces of Choquet type on AF algebras

We study non-linear traces of Choquet type on AF algebras. Building on the characterization of Choquet traces on matrix algebras due to Nagisa--Watatani, we generalize the construction to arbitrary unital AF algebras. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between such traces and increasing functions on the dimension scale,...

Robustness for free: asymptotic size and power of max-tests in high dimensions

Allowing for adversarial contamination and heavy tails, we study testing whether the mean of a high-dimensional random vector equals zero. Because standard max-tests based on sample averages are highly non-robust, we propose a max-test based on quantile-winsorized observations. The test controls asymptotic size under adversarial...

Numerical solution of Smoluchowski coagulation equation combined with Ostwald ripening

The processes of simultaneous coagulation and Ostwald ripening of particles in the concluding stage of phase transformation are considered. We solve the integro-differential system of Smoluchowski-type kinetic and mass balance equations using a computationally efficient numerical algorithm based on low-rank matrices. We compare our...

Computing Crystalline Cohomology and p-Divisible Groups for Curves over Finite Fields

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a finite field of characteristic $p$. We describe and implement a practical algorithm for computing the $p$-divisible group $Jac(X)[p^\infty]$ via computing its Dieudonné module, or equivalently computing the Frobenius and Verschiebung operators on the first crystalline cohomology of $X$. We...

Wasserstein distances between ERGMs and Erdős-Rényi models

Ferromagnetic exponential random graph models (ERGMs) are random graph models under which the presence of certain small structures (such as triangles) is encouraged; they can be constructed by tilting an Erdős--Rényi model by the exponential of a particular nonlinear Hamiltonian. These models are mixtures of metastable wells which...

Chaos propagation in genetic algorithms: An optimal transport approach

Genetic algorithms are high-level heuristic optimization methods which enjoy great popularity thanks to their intuitive description, flexibility, and, of course, effectiveness. The optimization procedure is based on the evolution of possible solutions following three mechanisms: selection, mutation, and crossover. In this paper, we...

The 2-categorical S-matrix of a braided fusion 1-category is a character table

The semisimple module categories over a braided fusion category $\mathcal{C}$ form a connected fusion 2-category $\text{Mod}(\mathcal{C})$. Its Drinfeld center $\mathcal{Z}(\text{Mod}(\mathcal{C}))$ is a braided fusion 2-category. To any braided fusion 2-category, Johnson-Freyd and Reutter arXiv:2105.15167v3 [math.QA] have associated...

Heights on toric varieties for singular metrics: Local theory

We show that the (toric) local height of a toric variety with respect to a semipositive torus-invariant singular metric is given by the integral of a concave function over a compact convex set. This generalizes a result of Burgos, Philippon, and Sombra for the case of continuous metrics and answers a question raised by Burgos, Kramer,...

Poisson-Dirichlet graphons and permutons

We introduce classes of supergraphs and superpermutations with novel universal graphon and permuton limiting objects whose construction involves the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet process introduced by Pitman and Yor (1997). We demonstrate the universality of these limiting objects through general invariance principles in a...

Cone structures from a dynamical and probabilistic viewpoint

The goal of this note is to explore, from a geometric and probabilistic point of view, the dynamics of cone structures adapted to open book decompositions. This is inspired by the picture which arises in the study of the circular restricted three body problem (CR3BP). This yields geometric obstructions to reaching a point from another...

Achievable Burning Densities of Growing Grids

Graph burning is a discrete-time process on graphs where vertices are sequentially activated and burning vertices cause their neighbours to burn over time. In this work, we focus on a dynamic setting in which the graph grows over time, and at each step we burn vertices in the growing grid $G_n = [-f(n),f(n)]^2$. We investigate the set...

A Natural Representation of Volumes Yields a Remarkable Affine Consequence

At the beginning of the 20th Century there was a growing interest for the investigation of the action of linear groups on the geometry of surfaces. In that context of ideas, the quest for a connection between curvature and the behaviour of linear groups rose naturally. Pursuing the original thought, we investigate how the geometric...

Gradient flow for finding E-optimal designs

The $E$-optimality criterion for a regression model maximizes the smallest eigenvalue of the information matrix and becomes non-differentiable when this eigenvalue has multiplicity greater than one. Working in the $2$-Wasserstein space, we show that the Wasserstein gradient at an empirical measure coincides, up to a constant factor,...

On the $p$-adic deformation problem for the $K$-theory of semistable schemes

We establish a semistable generalization of the Beilinson-Bloch-Esnault-Kerz fiber square, relating the algebraic K-theory of a semistable scheme to its logarithmic topological cyclic homology. We prove that the obstruction to lifting K-theory classes is governed by the Hyodo-Kato Chern character. This answers the $p$-adic deformation...

Symmetry Breaking and Phase Transitions in Random Non-Commutative Geometries and Related Random-Matrix Ensembles

Ensembles of random fuzzy non-commutative geometries may be described in terms of finite (\(N^2\)-dimensional) Dirac operators and a probability measure. Dirac operators of type \((p,q)\) are defined in terms of commutators and anti-commutators of \(2^{p+q-1}\) hermitian matrices \(H_k\) and tensor products with a...

A global stochastic maximum principle for delayed forward-backward stochastic control systems

In this paper, we study a delayed forward-backward stochastic control system in which all the coefficients depend on the state and control terms, and the control domain is not necessarily convex. A global stochastic maximum principle is obtained by using a new method. More precisely, this method introduces first-order and second-order...

Scheme theory for commutative semirings

In this survey, we describe two different approaches to constructing affine schemes for commutative semirings: one based on prime ideals, and another based on prime kernels (also called subtractive ideals). We then explain how these two approaches are related through the theory of universal valuations.
