A Riemannian cone (C,gC) is by definition a warped product C=R+×L with metric gC=dr2⊕r2gL, where (L,gL) is a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary. We say that C is a Calabi-Yau cone if gC is a Ricci-flat Kähler metric and if C admits a gC-parallel holomorphic volume form; this is equivalent to the cross-section (L,gL) being a Sasaki-Einstein manifold. In this paper, we give a complete classification of all smooth complete Calabi-Yau manifolds asymptotic to some given Calabi-Yau cone at a polynomial rate at infinity. As a special case, this includes a proof of Kronheimer's classification of ALE hyper-Kähler 4-manifolds without twistor theory.

Rethinking Maximum Flow Problem and Beamforming Design through Brain-inspired Geometric Lens
Increasing data rate in wireless networks (e.g., vehicular ones) can be accomplished through a two-pronged approach, which are 1) increasing the network flow rate through parallel independent routes and 2) increasing the user's link rate through beamforming codebook adaptation. Mobile relays (e.g., mobile road side units) are utilized to enable achieving these goals given their flexible positioning. First at the network level, we model regularized Laplacian matrices, which are symmetric positive definite (SPD) ones representing relay-dependent network graphs, as points over Riemannian manifolds. Inspired by the geometric classification of different tasks in the brain network, Riemannian metrics, such as Log- Euclidean metric (LEM), are utilized to choose relay positions that result in maximum LEM. Simulation results show that the proposed LEM- based relay positioning algorithm enables parallel routes and achieves maximum network flow rate, as opposed to other conventional metrics (e.g., algebraic connectivity). Second at the link level, we propose an unsupervised geometric machine learning (G-ML) approach to learn the unique channel characteristics of each relay-dependent environment. Given that spatially-correlated fading channels have SPD covariance matrices, they can be represented over Riemannian manifolds. Consequently, LEM-based Riemannian metric is utilized for unsupervised learning of the environment channels, and a matched beamforming codebook is constructed accordingly. Simulation results show that the proposed G-ML model increases the link rate after a short training period.

The deep linear network (DLN) is a model for implicit regularization in gradient based optimization of overparametrized learning architectures. Training the DLN corresponds to a Riemannian gradient flow, where the Riemannian metric is defined by the architecture of the network and the loss function is defined by the learning task. We extend this geometric framework, obtaining explicit expressions for the volume form, including the case when the network has infinite depth. We investigate the link between the Riemannian geometry and the training asymptotics for matrix completion with rigorous analysis and numerics. We propose that under small initialization, implicit regularization is a result of bias towards high state space volume.more » « less

The relay channel, consisting of a source-destination pair and a relay, is a fundamental component of cooperative communications. While the capacity of a general relay channel remains unknown, various relaying strategies, including compress-and-forward (CF), have been proposed. For CF, given the correlated signals at the relay and destination, distributed compression techniques, such as Wyner–Ziv coding, can be harnessed to utilize the relay-to-destination link more efficiently. In light of the recent advancements in neural network-based distributed compression, we revisit the relay channel problem, where we integrate a learned one-shot Wyner–Ziv compressor into a primitive relay channel with a finite-capacity and orthogonal (or out-of-band) relay-to-destination link. The resulting neural CF scheme demonstrates that our task-oriented compressor recovers binning of the quantized indices at the relay, mimicking the optimal asymptotic CF strategy, although no structure exploiting the knowledge of source statistics was imposed into the design. We show that the proposed neural CF scheme, employing finite order modulation, operates closely to the capacity of a primitive relay channel that assumes a Gaussian codebook. Our learned compressor provides the first proof-of-concept work toward a practical neural CF relaying scheme. Published in: 2024 IEEE 25th Internmore » « less

Cooperative relays improve reliability and coverage in wireless networks by providing multiple paths for data transmission. Relaying will play an essential role in vehicular networks at higher frequency bands, where mobility and frequent signal blockages cause link outages. To ensure connectivity in a relay-aided vehicular network, the relay selection policy should be designed to efficiently find unblocked relays. Inspired by recent advances in beam management in mobile millimeter wave (mmWave) networks, this paper address the question: how can the best relay be selected with minimal overhead from beam management? In this regard, we formulate a sequential decision problem to jointly optimize relay selection and beam management. We propose a joint relay selection and beam management policy based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) using the Markov property of beam in- dices and beam measurements. The proposed DRL-based algorithm learns time-varying thresholds that adapt to the dynamic channel conditions and traffic patterns. Numeri- cal experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms baselines without prior channel knowledge. Moreover, the DRL-based algorithm can maintain high spectral efficiency under fast-varying channels.more » « less

Abstract We prove that the reconstruction of a certain type of length spaces from their travel time data on a closed subset is Lipschitz stable. The travel time data is the set of distance functions from the entire space, measured on the chosen closed subset. The case of a Riemannian manifold with boundary with the boundary as the measurement set appears is a classical geometric inverse problem arising from Gel’fand’s inverse boundary spectral problem. Examples of spaces satisfying our assumptions include some non-simple Riemannian manifolds, Euclidean domains with non-trivial topology, and metric trees.more » « less
