A finiteness theorem for Lagrangian fibrations

Justin Sawon

We consider (holomorphic) Lagrangian fibrations X->P^n that satisfy some natural hypotheses. We prove that there are only finitely many such Lagrangian fibrations up to deformation…

Hydrodynamic Studies of the Evolution of Recurrent, Symbiotic, and Dwarf Novae: The White Dwarf Components are Growing in Mass

S. Starrfield, F. X. Timmes, C. Iliadis +4

Symbiotic binaries are systems containing white dwarfs (WDs) and red giants. Symbiotic novae are those systems in which thermonuclear eruptions occur on the WD components. These ar…

Convergence and prediction of principal component scores in high-dimensional settings

Seunggeun Lee, Fei Zou, Fred A. Wright

A number of settings arise in which it is of interest to predict Principal Component (PC) scores for new observations using data from an initial sample. In this paper, we demonstra…
