Quantum Invariants indexed by Fibered Faces of the Thurston Polytope

Davide Passaro, Lara San Martín Suárez

We study the Gukov--Manolescu quantum invariant for oriented links. While this invariant is a single series in the knot case, we find that links admit multiple such series, each on…

New Records for the Hadamard Maximal Determinant Problem

Giorgi Butbaia, Pragatheeswaran Vipulanandan, Justin Tan +6

The Hadamard maximal determinant problem seeks an matrix with entries in , which maximizes the determinant for a given order $n \in…

New Snake-in-the-Box Records via Snakepit Surgery and Learned Construction

Paul Orland, Lucas Fagan, Michele Tarquini +7

The snake-in-the-box problem asks for a longest induced path in the hypercube graph . We find a length-191 snake in dimension , the lowest dimension where the maximum is…

fkcompute: an efficient invariant calculator

Paul Orland, Davide Passaro, Lara San Martín Suárez +2

We introduce fkcompute, an open-source package for computing the Gukov--Manolescu invariant of links from a braid presentation. fkcompute implements Park's inverted state sum throu…

Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning for Sparse-Reward Search in Commutative Algebra

Giorgi Butbaia, Paul Orland, Coco Huang +7

Applying machine learning techniques to solving long-standing mathematical conjectures can be particularly challenging due to their extreme reward sparsity. As an illustrative exam…

The Two-Hump Problem: Bridging the Difficulty Gap in Mathematical Reinforcement Learning

Lucas Fagan, Michele Tarquini, Ali Shehper +6

Mathematical search problems present a unique challenge for Reinforcement Learning (RL) due to vast search spaces and sparse rewards. In previous works, the Andrews-Curtis (AC) con…

from Surgery and Modularity

Shimal Harichurn, Mrunmay Jagadale, Dmitry Noshchenko +1

invariants, rigorously defined for negative definite plumbed 3-manifolds, are expected - on physical grounds - to exist for every closed, oriented 3-manifold (Gukov e…

3d Modularity Revisited

Miranda C. N. Cheng, Ioana Coman, Piotr Kucharski +2

The three-manifold topological invariants capture the half-index of the three-dimensional theory with supersymmetry obtained by compactifying the M5 bran…

Quantum Modular -Invariants

Miranda C. N. Cheng, Ioana Coman, Davide Passaro +1

We study the quantum modular properties of -invariants of closed three-manifolds. Higher depth quantum modular forms are expected to play a central role for general…

3-Manifolds and VOA Characters

Miranda C. N. Cheng, Sungbong Chun, Boris Feigin +4

By studying the properties of -series -invariants, we develop a dictionary between 3-manifolds and vertex algebras. In particular, we generalize previously known ent…
