Let~$S^{n-1}\rightarrow E \rightarrow M^n$ be an oriented sphere bundle supporting a {smooth} affine transverse foliation. We give a new and elementary proof of the following fact: if the fundamental group {$π_1(M^n)$} is amenable, then the Euler number of the bundle vanishes. As a by-product, we give an upper bound for the Euler number of the bundle in the general case, that is, for non-amenable {$π_1(M^n)$}.
AutoIntent is an automated machine learning tool for text classification tasks. Unlike existing solutions, AutoIntent offers end-to-end automation with embedding model selection, classifier optimization, and decision threshold tuning, all within a modular, sklearn-like interface. The framework is designed to support multi-label classification and out-of-scope detection. AutoIntent demonstrates superior performance compared to existing AutoML tools on standard intent classification datasets and enables users to balance effectiveness and resource consumption.
We examine the Moore complex of the Delta-group structure related to the pure braid groups and introduced by Berrick, Cohen, Wong, and Wu. We prove that the cycle and the boundary groups are invariant under all automorphisms of the pure braid groups, and thereby, we extend the results of Li and Wu on the reflection automorphism. We conclude that there is an induced action of all automorphisms of the pure braid groups on the homotopy groups of the two-sphere. Besides, we compute this action for a small number of strands.
We provide a combinatorial characterisation of positive diagrams satisfying the equality in the Morton-Franks-Williams bound for the degrees of the HOMFLY-PT polynomial. This characterisation allows generating with relative ease examples of diagrams realizing the crossing number, the braid index, and the maximal self-linking number. Besides, we suggest a conjecture concerning the sharpness of the Morton-Franks-Williams inequality for strongly quasipositive links.
We describe a new class of minimal link diagrams. This class includes certain alternating diagrams, the standard diagrams of all torus links, and numerous homogeneous diagrams whose minimality has not been proven before. Besides, we describe a new larger class of link diagrams with the least number of Seifert circles among all diagrams of a given link. Our approach refers to the Morton-Franks-Williams inequality.
We study braid diagrams with a minimal number of crossings. Such braid diagrams correspond to geodesic words for the braid groups with standard Artin generators. We prove that a diagram of a homogeneous braid is minimal if and only if it is homogeneous. We conjecture that monoids of homogeneous braids are Artin-Tits monoids and prove that monoids of alternating braids are right-angled Artin monoids. Using this, we give a lower bound on the growth rate of the braid groups.
In this paper, we give a complete description of the language of geodesic words for the discrete Heisenberg group $H(\mathbb{Z})$ with respect to the standard two-element generating set. More precisely, we prove that the only dead end elements in $H(\mathbb{Z})$ are nontrivial elements of the commutator subgroup. We give a description of their geodesic representatives, which are called dead end words. The description is based on a minimal perimeter polyomino concept. Finally, we prove that any geodesic word in $H(\mathbb{Z})$ is a prefix of a dead end word.
By definition the identities $[x_1,x_2]+[x_2,x_1]=0$ and $[x_1,x_2,x_3]+[x_2,x_3,x_1]+[x_3,x_1,x_2]=0$ hold in any Lie algebra. It is easy to check that the identity $[x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4]+[x_2,x_1,x_4,x_3]+[x_3,x_4,x_1,x_2]+[x_4,x_3,x_2,x_1] = 0$ holds in any Lie algebra as well. We investigate sets of permutations that give identities of this kind. In particular, we construct a family of such subsets $T_{k,l,n}$ of the symmetric group $S_n,$ and hence, a family of identities that hold in any Lie algebra.
