Local Asymptotic Normality for Mixed Fractional Brownian Motion Under High-Frequency Observation

In this paper we will consider the LAN property for both the Hurst parameter $H>3/4$ and the variance of the fractional Brownian motion plus an independent standard Brownian motion (called mixed fractional Brownian motion) with high-frequency observation. We will first remove the $H$-score linear term and orthogonalize the remainder...

$K$-Bad Spheres

In this paper we look at the $E$-completion of topological spaces where $E$ is a $p$-local ring spectrum. After a brief review of the concept of $E$-completion, we specialize to the case where $E=K$, $p$-local complex periodic $K$-theory, and consider the $K$-theory of the unstable sphere $S^{2n+1}$. We show that for certain values of...

Mass splitting in the time-discrete generalized Euler equations and non-Monge solutions in multi-marginal optimal transport

The time-discretized, spatially continuous generalized Euler equations are a prototype example of multi-marginal optimal transport, yet the question whether they exhibit mass-splitting (or equivalently, whether they have solutions that are not of Monge form) has remained open. Here we resolve this question by giving a mass-splitting...

A spectral product formula for repunits via a tridiagonal Toeplitz similarity

For $b>0$ and $n\geqslant 1$, we consider the $n\times n$ tridiagonal matrix $V_n(b)$ with diagonal entries $b+1$, superdiagonal entries $1$, and subdiagonal entries $b$. A diagonal similarity reduces $V_n(b)$ to a symmetric tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix and hence makes its spectrum explicit. Since $\det\left(V_n(b)\right)$ equals the...

Antidiagonal Initial Complexes of Infinite Matrix Schubert Varieties are Cohen-Macaulay

We show that, under certain constraints, the Stanley-Reisner ring of an infinite simplicial complex is Cohen-Macaulay in the sense of ideals and weak Bourbaki unmixed. We apply this result to prove the wanted claim -- that initial complexes of matrix Schubert varieties corresponding to infinite permutations in $S_{\infty}$ with...

On the Collatz Conjecture: Topological and Ergodic Approach

We study a class of maps having the Collatz function (famously related to the Collatz Conjecture) as an example, under topological and ergodic perspectives, including an approach with thermodynamic formalism. By introducing a key topology and its Borel sigma-algebra we show that recurrence implies periodicity. Moreover, we establish...

Boundary operators in the Brownian loop soup

We obtain infinitely many boundary operators in the Brownian loop soup in the subcritical phase by analyzing the conformal block expansion of the two-point function that computes the probability of having two marked points on the upper half-plane being separated by Brownian loops. The resulting boundary operators are primary operators...

Data-Driven Output-Based Approach to the Output Regulation Problem of Unknown Linear Systems via Value Iteration

The output regulation problem for unknown linear systems has been studied using state-based and output-based internal model approaches in the special case with no disturbances. This paper further investigates the output regulation problem for unknown linear systems using a data-driven output-based approach via value iteration. For...

Affirmative Results on a Conjecture on the Column Space of the Adjacency Matrix

The Akbari-Cameron-Khosrovshahi (ACK) conjecture, which appears to be unresolved, states that for any simple graph $G$ with at least one edge, there exists a nonzero {$\{0,1\}$}-vector in the row space of its adjacency matrix that is not a row of the matrix itself. In this talk, we present a unified framework that includes several...

Counting Polynomial-type Exceptional Units on Algebraic Varieties over Number Fields

Previous research on exceptional units has primarily focused on the ring of rational integers or abstract finite rings, often restricted to linear or quadratic constraints. In this paper, we extend the concept of polynomial-type exceptional units to the ring of integers of an arbitrary algebraic number field. We investigate the number...

Generalized Double Duals of the Riemann Tensor in Geometry and Gravity

The Riemann curvature tensor fully encodes local geometry, but its Ricci contraction retains only limited information: only the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature survive, while the Weyl curvature vanishes identically. We show that contracting instead the double dual of the Riemann tensor unlocks the full curvature structure,...

Stacks of p-adic shtukas and spatial kimberlites

The main purpose of this article is to show that the special Newton polygon map from the stack of p-adic shtukas to the stack of G-bundles on the Fargues--Fontaine curve is representable in diamonds and sufficiently nice for cohomological considerations (i.e. fdcs). The second purpose is to show that the $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$-fibers of...

Almost complex totally geodesic surfaces in the nearly Kähler $\frac{\text{SL}(3,\mathbb R)}{\mathbb R\times \text{SO}(2)}$

We give a detailed description of the nearly Kähler $\frac{\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb R)}{\mathbb R\times \mathrm{SO}(2)}$, which is one of the pseudo-Riemannian counterparts of the flag manifold $F(\mathbb{C}^3)$. The main result is the classification of totally geodesic almost complex surfaces in this space.

Sampling non-log-concave densities via Hessian-free high-resolution dynamics

We study the problem of sampling from a target distribution $π(q)\propto e^{-U(q)}$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $U$ can be non-convex, via the Hessian-free high-resolution (HFHR) dynamics, which is a second-order Langevin-type process that has $e^{-U(q)-\frac12|p|^2}$ as its unique invariant distribution, and it reduces to kinetic...

Manifolds with harmonic curvature and curvature operator of the second kind

We prove that complete Riemannian manifolds of dimension $n\ge3$ with harmonic curvature and $\frac{n(n+2)}{2(n+1)}$-nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind must be Einstein. In particular, We show that complete Einstein manifolds of dimension $n\ge4$ with $\frac{3n(n-1)^2(n+2)}{2(5n^3+3n^2-30n+16)}$-nonnegative curvature...

Symmetric quiver varieties and critical stable envelopes

Symmetric quiver varieties with potentials are natural generalizations of Nakajima quiver varieties, and their equivariant critical cohomologies provide more flexible settings for geometric representation theory and enumerative geometry. In this paper, we study their geometric properties and show that they behave like universally...

The Effective Ehrenpreis Conjecture

Let $M$ and $N$ be two closed hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. The Ehrenpreis Conjecture (proved by Kahn-Markovic) asserts that for any $ε>0$ there are finite covers $M_ε\to M$, and $N_ε\to N$, such that the Teichmuller distance (in the suitable moduli space) between $M_ε$ and $N_ε$ is less than $ε$. It is natural to ask how large the...

Diffusion limit for the stationary distribution of a history-dependent two-level M/M/1 queue

Recently, Atar and Miyazawa [2] introduced a multi-level GI/G/1 queue with a finite number of levels, where both the arrival and service rates depend on the level corresponding to the current queue length. For this model, they proved that the diffusion limit of its queue length process in heavy traffic is the level-dependent reflected...

A Classification of Fractal Squares

Let $λ_K:\bbR^2\rightarrow\{0,1,\ldots\}\cup\{\infty\}$ be the lambda function of a planar comapctum $K$, as defined in MR4488162. It is known that a planar continuum is locally connected if and only if its lambda function vanishes everywhere, or equivalently, $λ_K(K)=\{0\}$. In this article we show that every fractal square $K$...

Revisiting a Fast Newton Solver for a 2-D Spectral Estimation Problem: Computations with the Full Hessian

Spectral estimation plays a fundamental role in frequency-domain identification and related signal processing problems. This paper revisits a 2-D spectral estimation problem formulated in terms of convex optimization. More precisely, we work with the dual optimization problem and show that the full Hessian of the dual function admits...

Branching $k$-path vertex cover of forests

We define a set $P$ to be a branching $k$-path vertex cover of an undirected forest $F$ if all leaves and isolated vertices (vertices of degree at most $1$) of $F$ belong to $P$ and every path on $k$ vertices (of length $k-1$) contains either a branching vertex (a vertex of degree at least $3$) or a vertex belonging to $P$. We define...

Stability and error estimates of a linear and partitioned finite element method approximating nonlinear fluid-structure interactions

We propose and analyze a linear and partitioned finite element method for fluid-shell interactions under the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) framework. We adopt the P1-bubble/P1/P1 elements for the fluid velocity, pressure, and structure velocity, respectively. We show the stability and error estimates of the scheme without...

The Sequence Reconstruction of Permutations under Hamming Metric with Small Errors

The sequence reconstruction problem asks for the recovery of a sequence from multiple noisy copies, where each copy may contain up to $r$ errors. In the case of permutations on \(n\) letters under the Hamming metric, this problem is closely related to the parameter $N(n,r)$, the maximum intersection size of two Hamming balls of radius...

Large-scale geometry of graphs interpolating between curve graphs and pants graphs

We study two types of graphs interpolating between the curve graph and the pants graph from the viewpoint of large-scale geometry. One was introduced by Erlandsson and Fanoni, and the other by Mahan Mj. These graphs were developed independently in different contexts. In this paper, we provide explicit formulae for computing their...
