SymFlux: deep symbolic regression of Hamiltonian vector fieldsM. A. Evangelista-Alvarado, P. Suárez-Serrato
We present SymFlux, a novel deep learning framework that performs symbolic regression to identify Hamiltonian functions from their corresponding vector fields on the standard symplectic plane. SymFlux models utilize hybrid CNN-LSTM architectures to learn and output the symbolic mathematical expression of the underlying Hamiltonian. Training and validation are conducted on newly developed datasets of Hamiltonian vector fields, a key contribution of this work. Our results demonstrate the model's effectiveness in accurately recovering these symbolic expressions, advancing automated discovery in Hamiltonian mechanics.
EuLearn: A 3D database for learning Euler characteristicsRodrigo Fritz, Pablo Suárez-Serrato, Victor Mijangos et al.
We present EuLearn, the first surface datasets equitably representing a diversity of topological types. We designed our embedded surfaces of uniformly varying genera relying on random knots, thus allowing our surfaces to knot with themselves. EuLearn contributes new topological datasets of meshes, point clouds, and scalar fields in 3D. We aim to facilitate the training of machine learning systems that can discern topological features. We experimented with specific emblematic 3D neural network architectures, finding that their vanilla implementations perform poorly on genus classification. To enhance performance, we developed a novel, non-Euclidean, statistical sampling method adapted to graph and manifold data. We also introduce adjacency-informed adaptations of PointNet and Transformer architectures that rely on our non-Euclidean sampling strategy. Our results demonstrate that incorporating topological information into deep learning workflows significantly improves performance on these otherwise challenging EuLearn datasets.

Areas on the space of smooth probability density functions on $S^2$J. C. Ruíz-Pantaleón, P. Suárez-Serrato
We present symbolic and numerical methods for computing Poisson brackets on the spaces of measures with positive densities of the plane, the 2-torus, and the 2-sphere. We apply our methods to compute symplectic areas of finite regions for the case of the 2-sphere, including an explicit example for Gaussian measures with positive densities.

Turing approximations, toric isometric embeddings & manifold convolutionsP. Suárez-Serrato
Convolutions are fundamental elements in deep learning architectures. Here, we present a theoretical framework for combining extrinsic and intrinsic approaches to manifold convolution through isometric embeddings into tori. In this way, we define a convolution operator for a manifold of arbitrary topology and dimension. We also explain geometric and topological conditions that make some local definitions of convolutions which rely on translating filters along geodesic paths on a manifold, computationally intractable. A result of Alan Turing from 1938 underscores the need for such a toric isometric embedding approach to achieve a global definition of convolution on computable, finite metric space approximations to a smooth manifold.
Contour Parametrization via Anisotropic Mean Curvature FlowsP. Suárez-Serrato, E. I. Velázquez Richards
We present a new implementation of anisotropic mean curvature flow for contour recognition. Our procedure couples the mean curvature flow of planar closed smooth curves, with an external field from a potential of point-wise charges. This coupling constrains the motion when the curve matches a picture placed as background. We include a stability criteria for our numerical approximation.
