   Abstract Let$$\mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $F_q^d$be thed-dimensional vector space over the finite field withqelements. For a subset$$E\subseteq \mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $E\subseteq F_q^d$and a fixed nonzero$$t\in \mathbb {F}_q$$ $t\in F_q$, let$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)=\{h_y: y\in E\}$$ $H_t\left(E\right)=\{h_y:y\in E\}$, where$$h_y:E\rightarrow \{0,1\}$$ $h_y:E\to \{0,1\}$is the indicator function of the set$$\{x\in E: x\cdot y=t\}$$ $\{x\in E:x·y=t\}$. Two of the authors, with Maxwell Sun, showed in the case$$d=3$$ $d=3$that if$$|E|\ge Cq^{\frac{11}{4}}$$ $\left|E\right|\ge C{q}^{\frac{11}{4}}$andqis sufficiently large, then the VC-dimension of$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)$$ $H_t\left(E\right)$is 3. In this paper, we generalize the result to arbitrary dimension by showing that the VC-dimension of$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)$$ $H_t\left(E\right)$isdwhenever$$E\subseteq \mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $E\subseteq F_q^d$with$$|E|\ge C_d q^{d-\frac{1}{d-1}}$$ $\left|E\right|\ge C_d{q}^{d-\frac{1}{d-1}}$.

2. Multipliers on bi-parameter Haar system Hardy spaces

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00208-024-02887-9  

   Lechner, R.; Motakis, P.; Müller, P_F_X; Schlumprecht, Th (May 2024, Mathematische Annalen)

   Abstract Let$$(h_I)$$ $\left(h_I\right)$denote the standard Haar system on [0, 1], indexed by$$I\in \mathcal {D}$$ $I\in D$, the set of dyadic intervals and$$h_I\otimes h_J$$ $h_I\otimes h_J$denote the tensor product$$(s,t)\mapsto h_I(s) h_J(t)$$ $(s,t)\mapsto h_I\left(s\right)h_J\left(t\right)$,$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$ $I,J\in D$. We consider a class of two-parameter function spaces which are completions of the linear span$$\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$ $V\left({\delta }^2\right)$of$$h_I\otimes h_J$$ $h_I\otimes h_J$,$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$ $I,J\in D$. This class contains all the spaces of the formX(Y), whereXandYare either the Lebesgue spaces$$L^p[0,1]$$ $L^p[0,1]$or the Hardy spaces$$H^p[0,1]$$ $H^p[0,1]$,$$1\le p < \infty $$ $1\le p<\infty$. We say that$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$ $D:X\left(Y\right)\to X\left(Y\right)$is a Haar multiplier if$$D(h_I\otimes h_J) = d_{I,J} h_I\otimes h_J$$ $D(h_I\otimes h_J)=d_{I,J}{h}_I\otimes h_J$, where$$d_{I,J}\in \mathbb {R}$$ $d_{I,J}\in R$, and ask which more elementary operators factor throughD. A decisive role is played by theCapon projection$$\mathcal {C}:\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)\rightarrow \mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$ $C:V\left({\delta }^2\right)\to V\left({\delta }^2\right)$given by$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = h_I\otimes h_J$$ $C{h}_I\otimes h_J=h_I\otimes h_J$if$$|I|\le |J|$$ $\left|I\right|\le \left|J\right|$, and$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = 0$$ $C{h}_I\otimes h_J=0$if$$|I| > |J|$$ $\left|I\right|>\left|J\right|$, as our main result highlights: Given any bounded Haar multiplier$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$ $D:X\left(Y\right)\to X\left(Y\right)$, there exist$$\lambda ,\mu \in \mathbb {R}$$ $\lambda ,\mu \in R$such that$$\begin{aligned} \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C})\text { approximately 1-projectionally factors through }D, \end{aligned}$$ $\begin{array}{c}\lambda C+\mu (\text{Id}-C)\text{approximately 1-projectionally factors through}D,\end{array}$i.e., for all$$\eta > 0$$ $\eta >0$, there exist bounded operatorsA, Bso thatABis the identity operator$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$ $\text{Id}$,$$\Vert A\Vert \cdot \Vert B\Vert = 1$$ $\Vert A\Vert ·\Vert B\Vert =1$and$$\Vert \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C}) - ADB\Vert < \eta $$ $\Vert \lambda C+\mu (\text{Id}-C)-ADB\Vert <\eta$. Additionally, if$$\mathcal {C}$$ $C$is unbounded onX(Y), then$$\lambda = \mu $$ $\lambda =\mu$and then$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$ $\text{Id}$either factors throughDor$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-D$$ $\text{Id}-D$.

3. Undecidable Translational Tilings with Only Two Tiles, or One Nonabelian Tile

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00454-022-00426-4  

   Greenfeld, Rachel; Tao, Terence (January 2023, Discrete & Computational Geometry)

   Abstract We construct an example of a group$$G = \mathbb {Z}^2 \times G_0$$ $G=Z^2\times G_0$for a finite abelian group $$G_0$$ $G_0$, a subsetEof $$G_0$$ $G_0$, and two finite subsets$$F_1,F_2$$ $F_1,F_2$of G, such that it is undecidable in ZFC whether$$\mathbb {Z}^2\times E$$ $Z^2\times E$can be tiled by translations of$$F_1,F_2$$ $F_1,F_2$. In particular, this implies that this tiling problem isaperiodic, in the sense that (in the standard universe of ZFC) there exist translational tilings ofEby the tiles$$F_1,F_2$$ $F_1,F_2$, but no periodic tilings. Previously, such aperiodic or undecidable translational tilings were only constructed for sets of eleven or more tiles (mostly in $$\mathbb {Z}^2$$ $Z^2$). A similar construction also applies for$$G=\mathbb {Z}^d$$ $G=Z^d$for sufficiently large d. If one allows the group$$G_0$$ $G_0$to be non-abelian, a variant of the construction produces an undecidable translational tiling with only one tile F. The argument proceeds by first observing that a single tiling equation is able to encode an arbitrary system of tiling equations, which in turn can encode an arbitrary system of certain functional equations once one has two or more tiles. In particular, one can use two tiles to encode tiling problems for an arbitrary number of tiles.

4. 3D Mirror Symmetry for Instanton Moduli Spaces

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00220-023-04831-5  

   Koroteev, Peter; Zeitlin, Anton M. (September 2023, Communications in Mathematical Physics)

   Abstract We prove that the Hilbert scheme ofkpoints on$${\mathbb {C}}^2$$ $C^2$($$\hbox {Hilb}^k[{\mathbb {C}}^2]$$ ${\text{Hilb}}^k\left[C^2\right]$) is self-dual under three-dimensional mirror symmetry using methods of geometry and integrability. Namely, we demonstrate that the corresponding quantum equivariant K-theory is invariant upon interchanging its Kähler and equivariant parameters as well as inverting the weight of the$${\mathbb {C}}^\times _\hbar $$ $C_{ħ}^{\times }$-action. First, we find a two-parameter family$$X_{k,l}$$ $X_{k,l}$of self-mirror quiver varieties of type A and study their quantum K-theory algebras. The desired quantum K-theory of$$\hbox {Hilb}^k[{\mathbb {C}}^2]$$ ${\text{Hilb}}^k\left[C^2\right]$is obtained via direct limit$$l\longrightarrow \infty $$ $l⟶\infty$and by imposing certain periodic boundary conditions on the quiver data. Throughout the proof, we employ the quantum/classical (q-Langlands) correspondence between XXZ Bethe Ansatz equations and spaces of twisted$$\hbar $$ $ħ$-opers. In the end, we propose the 3d mirror dual for the moduli spaces of torsion-free rank-Nsheaves on$${\mathbb {P}}^2$$ $P^2$with the help of a different (three-parametric) family of type A quiver varieties with known mirror dual.

5. Search for CP violation in $${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} \rightarrow {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} $$ decays in proton–proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V} $$

   Abstract A search is reported for charge-parity$$CP$$ $\mathrm{CP}$violation in$${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} \rightarrow {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} $$ ${\text{D}}^0\to {\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0{\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0$decays, using data collected in proton–proton collisions at$$\sqrt{s} = 13\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V} $$ $\sqrt{s}=13\text{Te}\text{V}$recorded by the CMS experiment in 2018. The analysis uses a dedicated data set that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 41.6$$\,\text {fb}^{-1}$$ ${\text{fb}}^{-1}$, which consists of about 10 billion events containing a pair of b hadrons, nearly all of which decay to charm hadrons. The flavor of the neutral D meson is determined by the pion charge in the reconstructed decays$${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{*+}}} \rightarrow {{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} {{{\mathrm{\uppi }}}^{{+}}} $$ $\text{D}_{}^{\ast +}\to {\text{D}}^0{\pi }^{+}$and$${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{*-}}} \rightarrow {\overline{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} {{{\mathrm{\uppi }}}^{{-}}} $$ $\text{D}_{}^{\ast -}\to {\overline{\text{D}}}^0{\pi }^{-}$. The$$CP$$ $\mathrm{CP}$asymmetry in$${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} \rightarrow {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} $$ ${\text{D}}^0\to {\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0{\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0$is measured to be$$A_{CP} ({{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} ) = (6.2 \pm 3.0 \pm 0.2 \pm 0.8)\%$$ $A_{\mathrm{CP}}\left({\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0{\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0\right)=(6.2\pm 3.0\pm 0.2\pm 0.8)\%$, where the three uncertainties represent the statistical uncertainty, the systematic uncertainty, and the uncertainty in the measurement of the$$CP$$ $\mathrm{CP}$asymmetry in the$${{{\textrm{D}}}^{{0}}} \rightarrow {{\textrm{K}} _{\text {S}}^{{0}}} {{{\mathrm{\uppi }}}^{{+}}} {{{\mathrm{\uppi }}}^{{-}}} $$ ${\text{D}}^0\to {\text{K}}_{\text{S}}^0{\pi }^{+}{\pi }^{-}$decay. This is the first$$CP$$ $\mathrm{CP}$asymmetry measurement by CMS in the charm sector as well as the first to utilize a fully hadronic final state.
