From low-rank retractions to dynamical low-rank approximation and back

Daniel Kressner, Axel Elie Joseph Séguin, Gianluca Ceruti

In algorithms for solving optimization problems constrained to a smooth manifold, retractions are a well-established tool to ensure that the iterates stay on the manifold. More recently, it has been demonstrated that retractions are a useful concept for ot ...

Multiplicity-free Representations of Algebraic Groups

Donna Testerman

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over K. We address the problem of classifying triples (G, H, V ), where H is a proper connected subgroup of G, and V is a finitedimensional ir ...

Retraction-based numerical methods for continuation, interpolation and time integration on manifolds

Axel Elie Joseph Séguin

The goal of this thesis is the development and the analysis of numerical methods for problems where the unknown is a curve on a smooth manifold. In particular, the thesis is structured around the three following problems: homotopy continuation, curve inter ...

Floyd's manifold is a conjugation space

Jérôme Scherer

E. E. Floyd showed in 1973 that there exist only two nontrivial cobor-dism classes that contain manifolds with three cells, and that they lie in dimen-sions 10 and 5. We prove that there is an action of the cyclic group C2 on the 10-dimensional Floyd manif ...

A structured prediction approach for robot imitation learning

Aude Billard, Iason Batzianoulis

We propose a structured prediction approach for robot imitation learning from demonstrations. Among various tools for robot imitation learning, supervised learning has been observed to have a prominent role. Structured prediction is a form of supervised le ...

Critical Schrodinger Cat Qubit

Vincenzo Savona, Fabrizio Minganti, Luca Gravina

Encoding quantum information onto bosonic systems is a promising route to quantum error correc-tion. In a cat code, this encoding relies on the confinement of the dynamics of the system onto the two-dimensional manifold spanned by Schrodinger cats of oppos ...

Bounded and unbounded cohomology of homeomorphism and diffeomorphism groups

Nicolas Monod

We determine the bounded cohomology of the group of homeomorphisms of certain low-dimensional manifolds. In particular, for the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle and of the closed 2-disc, it is isomorphic to the polynomial ring g ...

Continuous-variable neural network quantum states and the quantum rotor model

Giuseppe Carleo

We initiate the study of neural network quantum state algorithms for analyzing continuous-variable quantum systems in which the quantum degrees of freedom correspond to coordinates on a smooth manifold. A simple family of continuous-variable trial wavefunc ...

A Theory of Finite-Width Neural Networks: Generalization, Scaling Laws, and the Loss Landscape

Berfin Simsek

Deep learning has achieved remarkable success in various challenging tasks such as generating images from natural language or engaging in lengthy conversations with humans. The success in practice stems from the ability to successfully train massive neural ...

Lie groups in the symmetric group: Reducing Ulam's problem to the simple case

Nicolas Monod

Ulam asked whether all Lie groups can be represented faithfully on a countable set. We establish a reduction of Ulam's problem to the case of simple Lie groups. In particular, we solve the problem for all solvable Lie groups and more generally Lie groups w ...

Persistence and the Sheaf-Function Correspondence

Nicolas Michel Berkouk

The sheaf-function correspondence identifies the group of constructible functions on a real analytic manifold M with the Grothendieck group of constructible sheaves on M. When M is a finite dimensional real vector space, Kashiwara-Schapira have recently in ...

High-order geometric integrators for the variational Gaussian approximation

Jiri Vanicek, Roya Moghaddasi Fereidani

Among the single-trajectory Gaussian-based methods for solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, the variational Gaussian approximation is the most accurate one. In contrast to Heller’s original thawed Gaussian approximation, it is symplectic, conse ...

Finding stationary points on bounded-rank matrices: a geometric hurdle and a smooth remedy

Nicolas Boumal

We consider the problem of provably finding a stationary point of a smooth function to be minimized on the variety of bounded-rank matrices. This turns out to be unexpectedly delicate. We trace the difficulty back to a geometric obstacle: On a nonsmooth se ...

Generalised Howe duality and injectivity of induction: the symplectic case

Thomas Gerber

We study the symplectic Howe duality using two new and independent combinatorial methods: via determinantal formulae on the one hand, and via (bi)crystals on the other hand. The first approach allows us to establish a generalised version where weight multi ...

Structure-preserving approaches and data-driven closure modeling for model order reduction

Nicolò Ripamonti

In this thesis, we propose model order reduction techniques for high-dimensional PDEs that preserve structures of the original problems and develop a closure modeling framework leveraging the Mori-Zwanzig formalism and recurrent neural networks. Since high ...

Rank-adaptive structure-preserving model order reduction of Hamiltonian systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini, Nicolò Ripamonti

This work proposes an adaptive structure-preserving model order reduction method for finite-dimensional parametrized Hamiltonian systems modeling non-dissipative phenomena. To overcome the slowly decaying Kolmogorov width typical of transport problems, the ...

Lie groups as permutation groups: Ulam's problem in the nilpotent case

Nicolas Monod

Ulam asked whether every connected Lie group can be represented on a countable structure. This is known in the linear case. We establish it for the first family of non-linear groups, namely in the nilpotent case. Further context is discussed to illustrate ...

An Accelerated First-Order Method for Non-convex Optimization on Manifolds

Christopher Arnold Criscitiello, Nicolas Boumal

We describe the first gradient methods on Riemannian manifolds to achieve accelerated rates in the non-convex case. Under Lipschitz assumptions on the Riemannian gradient and Hessian of the cost function, these methods find approximate first-order critical ...

Comment on "Manifolds of quasi-constant SOAP and ACSF fingerprints and the resulting failure to machine learn four-body interactions" [J. Chem. Phys. 156, 034302 (2022)]

The "quasi-constant " smooth overlap of atomic position and atom-centered symmetry function fingerprint manifolds recently discovered by Parsaeifard and Goedecker [J. Chem. Phys. 156, 034302 (2022)] are closely related to the degenerate pairs of configurat ...
