Each stratum has the structure of a pseudo-quotient, which is a relaxed GIT notion capturing the topology of the quotient and, therefore, behaving well for motivic computations of invariants of the character varieties. These stratifications are constructed by analyzing the root datum of $G$ to encode parabolic classes.

These torus links are a family of links in the 3-dimensional sphere formed by stacking several copies of torus knots. We develop an intrinsic stratification of the variety that allows us to relate its geometry with the one of the underlying torus knot. Using this information, we explicitly compute the E-polynomial associated to the Hodge structure of these varieties for $G=SL_2(\mathbb{C})$ and $SL_3(\mathbb{C})$, for an arbitrary torus link, showing an unexpected relation with the number of strands of the link. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2402.12286v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2402.12286v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 February, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">30 pages, 1 figure</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 57K31; 14D20; 14C30 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.15331">arXiv:2309.15331</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.15331">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2309.15331">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2309.15331">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Algebraic Geometry">math.AG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mathematical Physics">math-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Category Theory">math.CT</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Representation Theory">math.RT</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Arithmetic-Geometric Correspondence of Character Stacks via Topological Quantum Field Theory </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Gonz%C3%A1lez-Prieto%2C+%C3%81">脕ngel Gonz谩lez-Prieto</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Hablicsek%2C+M">M谩rton Hablicsek</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Vogel%2C+J">Jesse Vogel</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2309.15331v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> In this paper, we introduce Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) generalizing the arithmetic computations done by Hausel and Rodr铆guez-Villegas and the geometric construction done by Logares, Mu帽oz, and Newstead to study cohomological invariants of $G$-representation varieties and $G$-character stacks.

We show that these TQFTs are related via a natural transformation that we call the 'arithmetic-geometric correspondence' generalizing the classical formula of Frobenius on the irreducible characters of a finite group. We use this correspondence to extract some information on the character table of finite groups using the geometric TQFT, and vice versa, we greatly simplify the geometric calculations in the case of upper triangular matrices by lifting its irreducible characters to the geometric setting. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2309.15331v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2309.15331v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 26 September, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">41 pages.

Despite their success, the training process of a GAN is highly unstable and typically it is necessary to implement several accessory heuristics to the networks to reach an acceptable convergence of the model. In this paper, we introduce a novel method to analyze the convergence and stability in the training of Generative Adversarial Networks. For this purpose, we propose to decompose the objective function of the adversary min-max game defining a periodic GAN into its Fourier series. By studying the dynamics of the truncated Fourier series for the continuous Alternating Gradient Descend algorithm, we are able to approximate the real flow and to identify the main features of the convergence of the GAN. This approach is confirmed empirically by studying the training flow in a $2$-parametric GAN aiming to generate an unknown exponential distribution. As byproduct, we show that convergent orbits in GANs are small perturbations of periodic orbits so the Nash equillibria are spiral attractors. This theoretically justifies the slow and unstable training observed in GANs. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2209.01842v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2209.01842v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 5 September, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2022. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">27 pages, 8 figures, 1 table.

To this aim, we define a suitable Grothendieck ring of representable stacks, over which this Topological Quantum Field Theory is defined. In this way, we compute the virtual class of the character stack over $BG$, that is, a motivic decomposition of the representation variety with respect to the natural adjoint action. We apply this framework in two cases providing explicit expressions for the virtual classes of the character stacks of closed orientable surfaces of arbitrary genus. First, in the case of the affine linear group of rank $1$, the virtual class of the character stack fully remembers the natural adjoint action, in particular, the virtual class of the character variety can be straightforwardly derived. Second, we consider the non-connected group $\mathbb{G}_m \rtimes \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$, and we show how our theory allows us to compute motivic information of the character stacks where the classical na茂ve point-counting method fails. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2201.08699v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2201.08699v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 February, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 21 January, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2022. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">38 pages.

In particular, we shall show that several point count polynomials exist for these representation varieties, depending on the arithmetic between m,n and the characteristic of the field, whereas only one of them agrees with the actual E-polynomial. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2105.08945v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2105.08945v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 22 June, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 19 May, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2021. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">20 pages, 4 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2104.13651</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 14G15; 14D20; 20G15; 14C30 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.13651">arXiv:2104.13651</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.13651">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/2104.13651">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2104.13651">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Algebraic Geometry">math.AG</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Motive of the representation varieties of torus knots for low rank affine groups </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Gonz%C3%A1lez-Prieto%2C+%C3%81">脕ngel Gonz谩lez-Prieto</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Logares%2C+M">Marina Logares</a>, <a href="/search/math?searchtype=author&query=Mu%C3%B1oz%2C+V">Vicente Mu帽oz</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2104.13651v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> We compute the motive of the variety of representations of the torus knot of type (m,n) into the affine groups $AGL_1(C)$ and $AGL_2(C)$.

This technique is based on a building method of lax monoidal TQFTs of physical inspiration that generalizes the construction of Gonz谩lez-Prieto, Logares and Mu帽oz. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1810.09714v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1810.09714v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 31 July, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 23 October, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">40 pages, 5 figures. v2 change of title and major improvements.

They arise when we focus on the purely topological properties of good GIT quotients regardless of their algebraic properties. The flexibility granted by their topological nature enables an easier identification in geometric constructions than classical GIT quotients. We obtain several results about the interplay between pseudo-quotients and good quotients. Additionally, we show that in characteristic zero pseudo-quotients are unique up to virtual class in the Grothendieck ring of algebraic varieties. As an application, we compute the virtual class of $\mathrm{SL}_{2}(k)$-character varieties for free groups and surface groups as well as their parabolic counterparts with punctures of Jordan type. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1807.08540v5-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1807.08540v5-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 1 November, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 23 July, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">39 pages, no figures.
