Powers of Vandermonde determinants serve as model wave functions for the fractional quantum Hall effect. In this talk I will explain how one can realize the coefficients in the monomial basis as expectation values of operator products and how this...

We use a U-Net to make baseline power forecasts and train a diffusion model on its residuals to capture uncertainty. The diffusion samples naturally show low ensemble spread during stable atmospheric conditions and much wider spread when the...

We affirmatively resolve the energy image density conjecture of Bouleau and Hirsch (1986). This conjecture generalizes a foundational result in Malliavin calculus: the non-degeneracy of the Malliavin matrix of a random variable implies absolute...

Let A ∈ M_n be nonnegative, irreducible and E_ii = e_ie_i^T, where e_i is the ith standard basis vector. For a fixed t_0 > 0, an index p ∈ [n] := {1, 2, \ldots, n} is called a winner for the value t_0 if the spectral radius satisfies \rho( A + t_0 E...

In this talk, we present two algorithms associated with Tucker tensor format. The first is to obtain the Tucker tensor based on a new cross approximation we developed, called Cross^2-DEIM. This method samples a few fibers (proportionate to the multi...
