Short homology bases for hyperelliptic hyperbolic surfaces

Given a hyperelliptic hyperbolic surface S of genus g >= 2, we find bounds on the lengths of homologically independent loops on S. As a consequence, we show that for any lambda is an element of (0, 1) there exists a constant N(lambda) such that every such ...

Arithmetic and geometric deformations of threefolds

Stefano Filipazzi, Fabio Bernasconi

We show that mixed-characteristic and equicharacteristic small deformations of 3-dimensional canonical (resp., terminal) singularities with perfect residue field of characteristic p>5 are canonical (resp., terminal). We discuss applications to arithmetic a ...

Vanishing theorems in positive characteristic

Emelie Kerstin Arvidsson

The topic of this thesis is vanishing theorems in positive characteristic. In particular, we use "the covering trick of Ekedahl" to investigate the vanishing of

Logic Resynthesis of Majority-Based Circuits by Top-Down Decomposition

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Logic resynthesis is the problem of finding a dependency function to re-express a given Boolean function in terms of a given set of divisor functions. In this paper, we study logic resynthesis of majority-based circuits, which is motivated by the increasin ...

Positivity of the CM line bundle for families of K-stable klt Fano varieties

Zsolt Patakfalvi, Giulio Codogni

The Chow-Mumford (CM) line bundle is a functorial line bundle on the base of any family of klt Fano varieties. It is conjectured that it yields a polarization on the moduli space of K-poly-stable klt Fano varieties. Proving ampleness of the CM line bundle ...

Convex Combination of Diffusion Strategies Over Networks

Ali H. Sayed, Jie Chen

Combining diffusion strategies with complementary properties enables enhanced performance when they can be run simultaneously. In this article, we first propose two schemes for the convex combination of two diffusion strategies, namely, the power-normalize ...

Compute-Forward for DMCs: Simultaneous Decoding of Multiple Combinations

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Sung Hoon Lim, Adriano Pastore, Chen Feng

Algebraic network information theory is an emerging facet of network information theory, studying the achievable rates of random code ensembles that have algebraic structure, such as random linear codes. A distinguishing feature is that linear combinations ...

Dictionary Learning for Two-Dimensional Kendall Shapes

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, Anna You-Lai Song

We propose a novel sparse dictionary learning method for planar shapes in the sense of Kendall, namely configurations of landmarks in the plane considered up to similitudes. Our shape dictionary method provides a good trade-off between algorithmic simplici ...

Birational characterization of abelian varieties and ordinary abelian varieties in characteristic p>0

Zsolt Patakfalvi, Lei Zhang

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over k: a smooth projective variety X is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if kappa(S)(X) = 0 and b(1)(X ...

THE LMMP FOR LOG CANONICAL 3-FOLDS IN CHARACTERISTIC p > 5

Joseph Allen Waldron

We prove that one can run the log minimal model program for log canonical 3-fold pairs in characteristic p > 5. In particular, we prove the cone theorem, contraction theorem, the existence of flips and the existence of log minimal models for pairs with log ...
