In this paper we construct a faithful representation of the mapping class group of the genus two surface into a group of matrices over the complex numbers. Our starting point is the Lawrence-Krammer representation of the braid group Bn , which was shown to be faithful by Bigelow and Krammer. We obtain a faithful representation of the mapping class group of the n-punctured sphere by using the cl...

This paper explores the challenges and prospects associated with adoption of Islamic banking in Afghanistan. Despite global growth acceptance by approximately 50 countries 1997, Afghanistan only embraced it between 2008–2009. The decision to convert conventional banks ones, driven involvement interest rates (riba) prevailing system, necessitates a thorough examination need for an appropriate re...

This paper addresses the task of anomaly diagnosis when underlying data generation process has a complex spatio-temporal (ST) dependency. The key technical challenge is to extract actionable insights from dependency tensor characterizing high-order interactions among temporal and spatial indices. We formalize problem as supervised discovery, where ST learned side product multivariate time-serie...
