    Comment on "The N = 3 Weyl Multiplet in Four Dimensions"

    N = 3 Weyl multiplet in four dimensions was first constructed in J van Muiden et al (2017) where the authors used the current multiplet approach to obtain the linearized transformation rules and completed the nonlinear variations using the superconformal algebra. The multiplet of currents was obtained by a truncation of the multiplet of currents for the N = 4 vector multiplet. While the procedure seems to be correct, the result suffers from several inconsistencies. The inconsistencies are observed in the transformation rules as well as the field dependent structure constants in the corresponding soft algebra. We take a different approach, and compute the transformation rule as well as the corresponding soft algebra by demanding consistency.Comment: 7 pages, text revision

    Stable Recovery Of Sparse Vectors From Random Sinusoidal Feature Maps

    Full text link
    Random sinusoidal features are a popular approach for speeding up kernel-based inference in large datasets. Prior to the inference stage, the approach suggests performing dimensionality reduction by first multiplying each data vector by a random Gaussian matrix, and then computing an element-wise sinusoid. Theoretical analysis shows that collecting a sufficient number of such features can be reliably used for subsequent inference in kernel classification and regression. In this work, we demonstrate that with a mild increase in the dimension of the embedding, it is also possible to reconstruct the data vector from such random sinusoidal features, provided that the underlying data is sparse enough. In particular, we propose a numerically stable algorithm for reconstructing the data vector given the nonlinear features, and analyze its sample complexity. Our algorithm can be extended to other types of structured inverse problems, such as demixing a pair of sparse (but incoherent) vectors. We support the efficacy of our approach via numerical experiments
