Given a sequence $\{Z_d\}_{d\in \mathbb{N}}$ of smooth and compact hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb{R}}^{n-1}$, we prove that (up to extracting subsequences) there exists a regular definable hypersurface $\Gamma \subset {\mathbb{R}}\textrm{P}^n$ such that each manifold $Z_d$ is diffeomorphic to a component of the zero set on $\Gamma$ of some polynomial of degree $d$. (This is in sharp contrast with the case when $\Gamma$ is semialgebraic, where for example the homological complexity of the zero set of a polynomial $p$ on $\Gamma$ is bounded by a polynomial in $\deg (p)$.) More precisely, given the above sequence of hypersurfaces, we construct a regular, compact, semianalytic hypersurface $\Gamma \subset {\mathbb{R}}\textrm{P}^{n}$ containing a subset $D$ homeomorphic to a disk, and a family of polynomials $\{p_m\}_{m\in \mathbb{N}}$ of degree $\deg (p_m)=d_m$ such that $(D, Z(p_m)\cap D)\sim ({\mathbb{R}}^{n-1}, Z_{d_m}),$ i.e. the zero set of $p_m$ in $D$ is isotopic to $Z_{d_m}$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^{n-1}$. This says that, up to extracting subsequences, the intersection of $\Gamma$ with a hypersurface of degree $d$ can be as complicated as we want. We call these ‘pathological examples’. In particular, we show that for every $0 \leq k \leq n-2$ and every sequence of natural numbers $a=\{a_d\}_{d\in \mathbb{N}}$ there is a regular, compact semianalytic hypersurface $\Gamma \subset {\mathbb{R}}\textrm{P}^n$, a subsequence $\{a_{d_m}\}_{m\in \mathbb{N}}$ and homogeneous polynomials $\{p_{m}\}_{m\in \mathbb{N}}$ of degree $\deg (p_m)=d_m$ such that (0.1)$$\begin{equation}b_k(\Gamma\cap Z(p_m))\geq a_{d_m}.\end{equation}$$ (Here $b_k$ denotes the $k$th Betti number.) This generalizes a result of Gwoździewicz et al. [13]. On the other hand, for a given definable $\Gamma$ we show that the Fubini–Study measure, in the Gaussian probability space of polynomials of degree $d$, of the set $\Sigma _{d_m,a, \Gamma }$ of polynomials verifying (0.1) is positive, but there exists a constant $c_\Gamma$ such that $$\begin{equation*}0<{\mathbb{P}}(\Sigma_{d_m, a, \Gamma})\leq \frac{c_{\Gamma} d_m^{\frac{n-1}{2}}}{a_{d_m}}.\end{equation*}$$ This shows that the set of ‘pathological examples’ has ‘small’ measure (the faster $a$ grows, the smaller the measure and pathologies are therefore rare). In fact we show that given $\Gamma$, for most polynomials a Bézout-type bound holds for the intersection $\Gamma \cap Z(p)$: for every $0\leq k\leq n-2$ and $t>0$: $$\begin{equation*}{\mathbb{P}}\left(\{b_k(\Gamma\cap Z(p))\geq t d^{n-1} \}\right)\leq \frac{c_\Gamma}{td^{\frac{n-1}{2}}}.\end{equation*}$$
We study the following mean field equation on a flat torus $T:=\mathbb{C}/(\mathbb{Z}+\mathbb{Z}\tau )$: $$\begin{equation*} \varDelta u + \rho \left(\frac{e^{u}}{\int_{T}e^u}-\frac{1}{|T|}\right)=0, \end{equation*}$$where $ \tau \in \mathbb{C}, \mbox{Im}\ \tau>0$, and $|T|$ denotes the total area of the torus. We first prove that the solutions are evenly symmetric about any critical point of $u$ provided that $\rho \leq 8\pi $. Based on this crucial symmetry result, we are able to establish further the uniqueness of the solution if $\rho \leq \min{\{8\pi ,\lambda _1(T)|T|\}}$. Furthermore, we also classify all one-dimensional solutions by showing that the level sets must be closed geodesics.

Abstract Let $f(z) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_f(n)q^n$ be a holomorphic cuspidal newform with even integral weight $k\geq 2$, level N, trivial nebentypus and no complex multiplication. For all primes p, we may define $\theta_p\in [0,\pi]$ such that $a_f(p) = 2p^{(k-1)/2}\cos \theta_p$. The Sato–Tate conjecture states that the angles θp are equidistributed with respect to the probability measure $\mu_{\textrm{ST}}(I) = \frac{2}{\pi}\int_I \sin^2 \theta \; d\theta$, where $I\subseteq [0,\pi]$. Using recent results on the automorphy of symmetric power L-functions due to Newton and Thorne, we explicitly bound the error term in the Sato–Tate conjecture when f corresponds to an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ of arbitrary conductor or when f has square-free level. In these cases, if $\pi_{f,I}(x) := \#\{p \leq x : p \nmid N, \theta_p\in I\}$ and $\pi(x) := \# \{p \leq x \}$, we prove the following bound: $$ \left| \frac{\pi_{f,I}(x)}{\pi(x)} - \mu_{\textrm{ST}}(I)\right| \leq 58.1\frac{\log((k-1)N \log{x})}{\sqrt{\log{x}}} \qquad \text{for} \quad x \geq 3. $$ As an application, we give an explicit bound for the number of primes up to x that violate the Atkin–Serre conjecture for f.

Abstract Given a suitable solution
V (t ,x ) to the Korteweg–de Vries equation on the real line, we prove global well-posedness for initial data$$u(0,x) \in V(0,x) + H^{-1}(\mathbb {R})$$ V do include regularity but do not impose any assumptions on spatial asymptotics. We show that periodic profiles$$V(0,x)\in H^5(\mathbb {R}/\mathbb {Z})$$ https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6544/ac37f5 ) we show that smooth step-like initial data also satisfy our hypotheses. We employ the method of commuting flows introduced in Killip and Vişan (Ann. Math. (2) 190(1):249–305, 2019.https://doi.org/10.4007/annals.2019.190.1.4 ) where$$V\equiv 0$$ $$H^{-1}(\mathbb {R})$$ $$H^s(\mathbb {R})$$ -
Let $X=\mathbb{C}\times\Sigma$ be the product of the complex plane and a compact Riemann surface. We establish a classification theorem of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equation on $X$ with finite analytic energy. The spin bundle $S^+\to X$ splits as $L^+\oplus L^-$. When $2-2g\leq c_1(S^+)[\Sigma]<0$, the moduli space is in bijection with the moduli space of pairs $((L^+,\bar{\partial}), f)$ where $(L^+,\bar{\partial})$ is a holomorphic structure on $L^+$ and $f: \mathbb{C}\to H^0(\Sigma, L^+,\bar{\partial})$ is a polynomial map. Moreover, the solution has analytic energy $-4\pi^2d\cdot c_1(S^+)[\Sigma]$ if $f$ has degree $d$. When $c_1(S^+)=0$, all solutions are reducible and the moduli space is the space of flat connections on $\bigwedge^2 S^+$. We also estimate the decay rate at infinity for these solutions.more » « less
