In this article one extends the classical theory of (intermediate) Jacobians to the “noncommutative world”. Concretely, one constructs a Q-linear additive Jacobian functor N 7→ J(N) from the category of noncommutative Chow motives to the category of abelian varieties up to isogeny, with the following properties: (i) the first de Rham cohomology group of J(N) agrees with the subspace of the odd ...

In this note we develop a theory of formal schemes and groups over arbitrary commutative rings which coincides with that of [5] if the base ring is a field, and generalizes that of [2]. We assume always our base ring is discrete and treat a formal scheme (resp. group) G, with two principal tools: A topology on the affine algebra (9(G) allows us to form its continuous linear dual B(G), the coalg...

We introduce the notion of a Schur-finite element in a λ-ring. Since the beginning of algebraic K-theory in [G57], the splitting principle has proven invaluable for working with λ-operations. Unfortunately, this principle does not seem to hold in some recent applications, such as the K-theory of motives. The main goal of this paper is to introduce the subring of Schur-finite elements of any λ-r...

We explicitly compute the 2-group of self-equivalences and (homotopy classes of) chain homotopies between them for any split chain complex A• in an arbitrary K-linear abelian category (K any commutative ring with unit). In particular, it is shown that it is a split 2-group whose equivalence class depends only on the homology of A•, and that it is equivalent to the trivial 2-group when A• is a s...

let $mathcal {a} $ and $mathcal {b} $ be c$^*$-algebras. assume that $mathcal {a}$ is of real rank zero and unital with unit $i$ and $k>0$ is a real number. it is shown that if $phi:mathcal{a} tomathcal{b}$ is an additive map preserving $|cdot|^k$ for all normal elements; that is, $phi(|a|^k)=|phi(a)|^k $ for all normal elements $ainmathcal a$, $phi(i)$ is a projection, and there exists a posit...

In this paper we describe a method for data set reduction by effective use of Multi-category Proximal Support Vector Machine (MPSVM). By using the Linear MPSVM Formulation in an iterative manner we identify the outliers in the data set and eliminate them. A k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) classifier is able to classify points using this reduced data set without significant loss of accuracy. We presen...
