We introduce a family of conditions on a simplicial complex that we call local klargeness (k ≥ 6 is an integer). They are simply stated, combinatorial and easily checkable. One of our themes is that local 6-largeness is a good analogue of the nonpositive curvature: locally 6-large spaces have many properties similar to nonpositively curved ones. However, local 6-largeness neither implies nor is...

This paper shows that the continuous shearlet transform, a novel directional multiscale transform recently introduced by the authors and their collaborators, provides a precise geometrical characterization for the boundary curves of very general planar regions. This study is motivated by imaging applications, where such boundary curves represent edges of images. The shearlet approach is able to...

Given the Finsler structure (M, F) on a manifold M, a Riemannian structure (M, h) and a linear connection on M are defined. They are obtained as the " average " of the Finsler structure and the Chern connection. This linear connection is the Levi-Civita connection of the Riemannian metric h. The relation between parallel transport of the Chern connection and the Levi-Civita connection of h are ...

We show, using purely classical considerations and logical extrapolation of results belonging to point particle theories, that the metric background field in which a string propagates must satisfy an Einstein or an Einstein–like equation. Additionally, there emerge restrictions on the worldsheet curvature, which seems to act as a source for spacetime gravity, even in the absence of other matter...

Previous experiments investigating ERP correlates of anticipatory attention shifts triggered by central symbolic cues have identified a contralateral "early directing attention negativity," which was assumed to be generated by processes involved in the control of spatial orienting. Here we demonstrate that this component is not directly linked to the control of attentional shifts, but instead r...

Many real-world networks can be modeled as attributed networks, where nodes are affiliated with attributes. When we implement network embedding, need to face two types of heterogeneous information, namely, structural information and attribute information. The undirected is usually expressed a symmetric adjacency matrix. Network embedding learning utilize the above learn vector representations i...

It is well known that no non-trivial Killing vector field exists on a compact Riemannian manifold of negative Ricci curvature; analogously, no non-trivial harmonic one-form exists on a compact manifold of positive Ricci curvature. One can consider the following, more general, problem. By reducing the assumption on the Ricci curvature to one on the scalar curvature, such vanishing theorems canno...

We prove that a Ricci curvature based method of triangulation of compact Riemannian manifolds, due to Grove and Petersen, extends to the context of weighted Riemannian manifolds and more general metric measure spaces. In both cases the role of the lower bound on Ricci curvature is replaced by the curvature-dimension condition CD(K,N). We show also that for weighted Riemannian manifolds the tria...

Previous studies have proved that partial information transmission can be found between intensity and pitch. In our last study, it was demonstrated that the timbre attribute can be transmitted as partial information between timbre and intensity. We manipulated the two attributes of stimulus, namely, timbre (piano vs. violin) and pitch (high vs. low), to find out whether they also have partial i...

dually flat finsler metrics form a special and valuable class of finsler metrics in finsler information geometry,which play a very important role in studying flat finsler information structure. in this paper, we prove that everylocally dually flat generalized randers metric with isotropic s-curvature is locally minkowskian.
