It is shown that an HKT space with closed parallel potential 1-form has D (2, 1; 1) symmetry. Every locally conformally hyper-Khler manifold generates this type of geometry. The HKT spaces with closed parallel potential 1-form arising in this way are characterized by their symmetries and an inhomogeneous cubic condition on their torsion.

Let G be a connected almost simple algebraic group with a Dynkin automorphism . Let G be the connected almost simple algebraic group associated with G and . We prove that the dimension of the tensor invariant space of G is equal to the trace of on the corresponding tensor invariant space of G. We prove that if G has the saturation property then so does G . As a consequence, we show that the spin group Spin (2 n+ 1) has saturation factor 2, which strengthens the results of BelkaleKumar [1] and Sam [28] in the case of type B n.

Computing the distance among linguistic objects is an essential problem in natural language processing. The word mover’s distance (WMD) has been successfully applied to measure the document distance by synthesizing the low-level word similarity with the framework of optimal transport (OT). However, due to the global transportation nature of OT, the WMD may overestimate the semantic dissimilarity when documents contain unequal semantic details. In this paper, we propose to address this overestimation issue with a novel Wasserstein-Fisher-Rao (WFR) document distance grounded on unbalanced optimal transport theory. Compared to the WMD, the WFR document distance provides a trade-off between global transportation and local truncation, which leads to a better similarity measure for unequal semantic details. Moreover, an efficient prune strategy is particularly designed for the WFR document distance to facilitate the top-k queries among a large number of documents. Extensive experimental results show that the WFR document distance achieves higher accuracy that WMD and even its supervised variation s-WMD.

On établit une relation intégrale généralisant un résultat d'Erdelyi-Tricomi. Pour cela on considère une solution de l'équation biconfluente de l'équation de Heun, dont on détermine l'intégrale de Fourier par le méthode des équations différentielles ordinaires [7], [9], [10].
