One strategy to perform such an estimation consists of resorting to polynomial fitting, either interpo- lation or approximation, but this route is difficult for several reasons: choice of the coordinate system, numerical handling of the fitting problem, extraction of the differential properties.

  • On Galilean Connections and the First Jet Bundle
    ON GALILEAN CONNECTIONS AND THE FIRST JET BUNDLE JAMES D.E. GRANT AND BRADLEY C. LACKEY Abstract. We see how the first jet bundle of curves into affine space can be realized as a homogeneous space of the Galilean group. Cartan connections with this model are precisely the geometric structure of second-order ordinary differential equations under time-preserving transformations { sometimes called KCC-theory. With certain regularity conditions, we show that any such Cartan connection induces \laboratory" coordinate systems, and the geodesic equations in this coordinates form a system of second-order ordinary differential equations. We then show the converse { the \fundamental theorem" { that given such a coordinate system, and a system of second order ordinary differential equations, there exists regular Cartan connections yielding these, and such connections are completely determined by their torsion. 1. Introduction The geometry of a system of ordinary differential equations has had a distinguished history, dating back even to Lie [10]. Historically, there have been three main branches of this theory, depending on the class of allowable transformations considered. The most studied has been differ- ential equations under contact transformation; see x7.1 of Doubrov, Komrakov, and Morimoto [5], for the construction of Cartan connections under this class of transformation. Another classical study has been differential equations under point-transformations. (See, for instance, Tresse [13]). By B¨acklund's Theorem, this is novel only for a single second-order dif- ferential equation in one independent variable. The construction of the Cartan connection for this form of geometry was due to Cartan himself [2]. See, for instance, x2 of Kamran, Lamb and Shadwick [6], for a modern \equivalence method" treatment of this case.

    A NOTE ON HIGHER ORDER GAUSS MAPS SANDRA DI ROCCO, KELLY JABBUSCH, AND ANDERS LUNDMAN ABSTRACT. We study Gauss maps of order k, associated to a projective variety X embedded in projective space via a line bundle L: We show that if X is a smooth, complete complex variety and L is a k-jet spanned line bundle on X, with k > 1; then the Gauss map of order k has finite fibers, unless n X = P is embedded by the Veronese embedding of order k. In the case where X is a toric variety, we give a combinatorial description of the Gauss maps of order k, its image and the general fibers. 1. INTRODUCTION N Let X ⊂ P be an n-dimensional irreducible, nondegenerate projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field | of characteristic 0. The (classical) Gauss map is the rational morphism g : X 99K Gr(n;N) that assigns to a smooth point x the projective tangent space of X at ∼ n N x, g(x) = TX;x = P : It is known that the general fiber of g is a linear subspace of P , and that the N morphism is finite and birational if X is smooth unless X is all of P ,[Z93, KP91, GH79]. In [Z93], Zak defines a generalization of the above definition as follows. For n 6 m 6 N − 1, N let Gr(m;N) be the Grassmanian variety of m-dimensional linear subspaces in P , and define Pm = f(x;a) 2 Xsm × Gr(m;N)jTX;x ⊆ La g; where La is the linear subspace corresponding to a 2 Gr(m;N) and the bar denotes the Zariski closure in X × Gr(m;N).

  • A Geometric Theory of Higher-Order Automatic Differentiation
    A Geometric Theory of Higher-Order Automatic Differentiation Michael Betancourt Abstract. First-order automatic differentiation is a ubiquitous tool across statistics, machine learning, and computer science. Higher-order imple- mentations of automatic differentiation, however, have yet to realize the same utility. In this paper I derive a comprehensive, differential geo- metric treatment of automatic differentiation that naturally identifies the higher-order differential operators amenable to automatic differ- entiation as well as explicit procedures that provide a scaffolding for high-performance implementations. arXiv:1812.11592v1 [stat.CO] 30 Dec 2018 Michael Betancourt is the principle research scientist at Symplectomorphic, LLC.

C1.8.10 JET TRANSPORT PROPAGATION OF UNCERTAINTIES FOR ORBITS AROUND THE EARTH Daniel Perez´ ∗, Josep J. Masdemontz, Gerard Gomez´ x Abstract In this paper we present a tool to study the non-linear propagation of uncertainties for orbits around the Earth. The tool we introduce is known as Jet Transport and allows to propagate full neighborhoods of initial states instead of a single initial state by means of usual numerical integrators. The description of the transported neighborhood is ob- tained in a semi-analytical way by means of polynomials in 6 variables. These variables correspond to displacements in the phase space from the reference point selected in an orbit as initial condition. The basis of the procedure is a standard numerical integrator of ordinary differential equations (such as a Runge-Kutta or a Taylor method) where the usual arithmetic is replaced by a polynomial arithmetic. In this way, the solution of the variational equations is also obtained up to high order. This methodology is applied to the propagation of satellite trajectories and to the computation of images of uncertainty ellipsoids including high order nonlinear descriptions. The procedure can be specially adapted to the determination of collision probabilities with catalogued space debris or for the end of life analysis of spacecraft in Medium Earth Orbits. 1 Introduction of a particle that at time t0 is at x0.

  • Jets and Differential Linear Logic
    Jets and differential linear logic James Wallbridge Abstract We prove that the category of vector bundles over a fixed smooth manifold and its corresponding category of convenient modules are models for intuitionistic differential linear logic. The exponential modality is modelled by composing the jet comonad, whose Kleisli category has linear differential operators as morphisms, with the more familiar distributional comonad, whose Kleisli category has smooth maps as morphisms. Combining the two comonads gives a new interpretation of the semantics of differential linear logic where the Kleisli morphisms are smooth local functionals, or equivalently, smooth partial differential operators, and the codereliction map induces the functional derivative. This points towards a logic and hence computational theory of non-linear partial differential equations and their solutions based on variational calculus.

We prove that a number of categories arising from the category of vector bundles are models for intuitionistic differential linear logic. This is part of a larger project aimed at understanding the interaction between differentiable programming, based on differential λ-calculus (Ehrhard and Regnier, 2003), and differential linear logic with a view towards extending these concepts to a language of non-linear partial differential equations.

  • ARITHMETIC DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY 1. Introduction the Aim
    ARITHMETIC DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY ALEXANDRU BUIUM 1. Introduction The aim of these notes is to explain past work and proposed research aimed at developing an arithmetic analogue of classical differential geometry. In the the- ory we are going to describe the ring of integers Z will play the role of a ring of functions on an infinite dimensional manifold. The role of coordinate functions on this manifold will be played by the prime numbers p 2 Z. The role of the partial derivative of an integer n 2 Z with respect to a prime p will be played (in the spirit n−np of [16, 28]) by the Fermat quotient δpn := p 2 Z: The role of metrics/2-forms will be played by symmetric/antisymmetric matrices with entries in Z. The role of connection/curvature attached to metrics or 2-forms will be played by certain adelic/global objects attached to integral matrices. The resulting geometry will be referred to as arithmetic differential geometry. One of the somewhat surprising conclusions of our theory is that (the space whose ring of functions is) Z appears as \intrinsically curved." A starting point for this circle of ideas can be found in our paper [16] where we showed how one can replace derivation operators by Fermat quotient operators in the construction of the classical jet spaces of Lie and Cartan; the new objects thus obtained were referred to as arithmetic jet spaces. With these objects at hand it was natural to try to develop an arithmetic analogue of differential calculus, in particular of differential equations and differential geometry.

  • THE CONTACT SYSTEM for A-JET MANIFOLDS Although
    ARCHIVUM MATHEMATICUM (BRNO) Tomus 40 (2004), 233 { 248 THE CONTACT SYSTEM FOR A-JET MANIFOLDS R. J. ALONSO-BLANCO AND J. MUNOZ-D~ ´IAZ Abstract. Jets of a manifold M can be described as ideals of C1(M). This way, all the usual processes on jets can be directly referred to that ring. By using this fact, we give a very simple construction of the contact system on jet spaces. The same way, we also define the contact system for the recently considered A-jet spaces, where A is a Weil algebra. We will need to introduce the concept of derived algebra. Although without formalization, jets are present in the work of S. Lie (see, for instance, [6]; x 130, pp. 541) who does not assume a fibered structure on the concerned manifold; on the contrary, this assumption is usually done nowadays in the more narrow approach given by the jets of sections. It is an old idea to consider the points of a manifold other than the ordinary ones. This can be traced back to Pluc¨ ker, Grassmann, Lie or Weil. Jets are `points' of a manifold M and can be described as ideals of its ring of differentiable functions [9, 13]. Indeed, the k-jets of m-dimensional submanifolds of M are those ideals p ⊂ 1 1 k def k+1 C (M) such that C (M)=p is isomorphic to Rm = R[1; : : : ; m]=(1; : : : ; m) (where the ' are undetermined variables). This point of view was introduced in the Ph. D. thesis of J. Rodr´ıguez, advised by the second author [13].
