Luo's Spectral Large Sieve Inequality on Short Intervals

Let $u_j $ traverse an orthonormal basis of Hecke--Maass forms for $\mathrm{SL}_2 (\mathbb {Z}) $ with Hecke eigenvalues $λ_j (n)$ and Laplace eigenvalue $1/4+t_j^2$. In this paper, we consider the short-interval variant of the twisted spectral large sieve inequality of Luo for $ λ_j (n) n^{it_j} $ on the range $t_j \leqslant T$ and...

Triangulated polygons and Y-frieze patterns

In the spirit of Conway and Coxeter, we classify all $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze patterns of type $A_n$. In particular, we settle a conjecture made by de Saint Germain that all such $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze patterns arise from Conway-Coxeter frieze patterns. Moreover, our approach naturally leads to the enumeration of these $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze...

Constraint Preserving AFD-WENO Schemes for Relativistic Hydrodynamics with General Equations of State

We develop a high-order physical-constraint-preserving (PCP) alternative finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory (AFD-WENO) scheme for the special relativistic hydrodynamics equations with general equations of state. The proposed scheme comprises two key limiters: a state limiter, which acts after the WENO state...

Remarks on the Complex Structures on $\mathbb P^3$ and $S^2\times S^4$

Assuming the validity of the recently proposed \textit{``A compact complex threefold fibred by tori over the projective line, and the six-sphere''}, we construct an exotic complex structure on $\mathbb P^{3}$, distinct from the point-blowup structures of Huckleberry, Kebekus, and Peternell. Then we perform an Atiyah flop to produce a...

A Morse-Family Integrator for Hamilton--Jacobi Dynamics Across Caustics

We develop a geometric framework for implicit discrete Hamiltonian systems based on discrete Morse families, Lagrangian relations, and discrete analogues of Tulczyjew's triple. The main idea is to regard the Lagrangian submanifold defining the discrete dynamics, rather than an explicit symplectic evolution map, as the fundamental...

Counting integral points near a curve in the n-dimensional Euclidean space

We improve a result of Hickman and Srivastava, which gives upper and lower bounds for the number of integral points which lie within a neighborhood of a smooth non-degenerate curve in $ \mathbb{R}^n $ for $ n \geq 3 $. Through more refined calculations, we have unleashed the great potential of the method in their work. Our improvement...

Tensor Orthogonal Subspace Split: Theory and Applications

Tensor representations have emerged as a fundamental paradigm for modeling multidimensional data by preserving intrinsic correlations across multiple modes. This paper proposes a novel theoretical framework, termed Tensor Orthogonal Subspace Split (TOSS), which explicitly splits a tensor, along a prescribed mode, into two orthogonal...

On the special values of Berndt's generalized $L$-function

In this paper, we study the generalized $L$-function considered by Berndt (1975). We introduce the generalized Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials and the generalized Apostol-Bernoulli functions, and establish some properties for them, including the Fourier series for these functions. We show that the values of Berndt's generalized...

Degree-shifted derived invariance of derived delooping levels

Gélinas introduced the delooping level of an Artin algebra as a homological invariant that bounds the big finitistic dimension of the opposite algebra. A natural question is whether such invariants are preserved under derived equivalences. Chen recently showed that the finiteness of the classical delooping level and its sub-derived...

Exploiting Exact Conditionals Improves Conditioning: Provably Fast Mixing Time Bounds By Sampling from the Marginal

The problem of sampling from a probability distribution arises in many applications such as posterior sampling in hierarchical Bayesian inverse problems and Gaussian processes for machine learning. Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms are often used for sampling from a target probability distribution, but implementations can be...

The role of parameter Jacobians in the stability of network outputs

In the framework of network dynamics, learning models, and neural tangent kernels (NTK), we show that the corresponding linearized dynamics leads naturally to a semigroup formulation. More precisely, in our analysis of input/output models, the time-dynamics is presented via special semigroups of linear operators on Hilbert spaces,...

On the Computational and Statistical Efficiency of the Empirical Maximum Entropy on the Mean Method

The Maximum Entropy on the Mean (MEM) method provides a flexible computational framework for solving inverse problems by combining data fidelity with entropy-based regularization. In practice, however, the prior distribution is typically unknown but can be estimated from data, giving rise to the empirical MEM method. We establish a...

Continuity equation on metric spaces via measure-valued derivations and BV-Wasserstein curves

We introduce a notion of continuity equation on metric spaces that is capable of describing curves of probability measures which are absolutely continuous, and more generally of bounded variation (BV), with respect to the 1-Wasserstein distance. This continuity equation is based on a notion of measure-valued derivations, whose basic...

Bounds for inertialess dynamo

We derive necessary conditions for instantaneous dynamo action for rotating convection. A magnetohydrodynamic model is considered in two settings: the rapidly rotating plane layer where inertia and viscosity are absent, and at an arbitrary rotation rate where viscosity is finite. In contrast to kinematic dynamo bounds, the evolution...

Some quartic control results for scalar-input systems

We investigate the role of quartic terms in the small-time local controllability of scalar-input systems. First, we prove a new sufficient condition for controllability, which exploits simultaneously more good quartic Lie brackets than previous results. Second, we identify a family of quartic obstructions to controllability, relying...

Modular Functors with Singularities from Vertex Operator Algebras Beyond Rigidity and Finiteness

For a vertex operator algebra $V$ and a suitable category of its modules, we propose a construction for spaces of conformal blocks organized into an open-closed modular functor with singularities. This is inspired by the idea of implementing directly from the start the principle of holomorphic factorization. More precisely, using the...

The Sunada method on Metric Measure Spaces

In this paper, we provide a general Sunada--Pesce--Sutton-type method that produces pairs of isospectral metric measure spaces. This construction relies on a representation theoretic assumption, and we give examples of spaces satisfying this condition, such as RCD spaces. As an application, we construct a pair of simply connected...

A ridgeline correspondence criterion: the number of modes of a Gaussian mixture is finite

We prove that every finite multivariate Gaussian mixture density has only finitely many modes. Our approach combines an algebraic formulation of the ridgeline theory of Ray and Lindsay (2005) with a transcendence-degree argument based on Ax's functional-transcendence theorem to bound the cardinality of the set of critical points. Our...

Closest Normal Matrix Found Again Using Riemannian Optimization

We propose an approach based on Riemannian optimization to compute a nearest normal matrix to a given one. The problem can be formulated as the minimization of a smooth function either on the manifold $U(n)$ of unitary matrices of size n or on the flag manifold $U (n)/U (1)^n$. The flag manifold is particularly suitable for...

Rational torsion on simple genus two Jacobians

We exhibit new subgroups of rational torsion points in geometrically simple Jacobians of genus-two curves over $\mathbb Q$. The largest group, which has order 96 and invariants [2,2,2,12], is realized by curves of the form $y^2 = x(x-a^2)(x-b^2)(x-c^2)(x-u^2)(x-v^2)$ where $a,b,c,u,v$ are positive integers that satisfy $a^2 + b^2 +...

Analysis of Polynomial Threshold Functions on Random Regular Graphs: Computational Complexity of Detecting Noisy Random Lift

In this work, we present the first analysis of low degree polynomial threshold functions for the natural hypothesis testing problem of detecting the noisy random lift of a base $d$-regular graph from a uniformly random $d$-regular graph. Along the way, we obtain a new result for the distribution of short cycle counts in noisy random...

On Nonsmooth and Relatively Weakly Convex Minimization

Composite optimization plays a central role in modern machine learning and signal processing, as it offers a natural balance between data fidelity and structural properties. In this paper, we study composite optimization in the setting where both components are nonsmooth and nonconvex. We start with a deterministic Bregman proximal...
