Title: Variation of canonical height for\break Fatou points on ℙ 1
Abstract Let f : ℙ 1 → ℙ 1 {f:\mathbb{P}^{1}\to\mathbb{P}^{1}} be a map of degree > 1 {>1} defined over a function field k = K ⁢ ( X ) {k=K(X)} , where K is a number field and X is a projective curve over K . For each point a ∈ ℙ 1 ⁢ ( k ) {a\in\mathbb{P}^{1}(k)} satisfying a dynamical stability condition, we prove that the Call–Silverman canonical height for specialization f t {f_{t}} at point a t {a_{t}} , for t ∈ X ⁢ ( ℚ ¯ ) {t\in X(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})} outside a finite set, induces a Weil height on the curve X ; i.e., we prove the existence of a ℚ {\mathbb{Q}} -divisor D = D f , a {D=D_{f,a}} on X so that the function t ↦ h ^ f t ⁢ ( a t ) - h D ⁢ ( t ) {t\mapsto\hat{h}_{f_{t}}(a_{t})-h_{D}(t)} is bounded on X ⁢ ( ℚ ¯ ) {X(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})} for any choice of Weil height associated to D . We also prove a local version, that the local canonical heights t ↦ λ ^ f t , v ⁢ ( a t ) {t\mapsto\hat{\lambda}_{f_{t},v}(a_{t})} differ from a Weil function for D by a continuous function on X ⁢ ( ℂ v ) {X(\mathbb{C}_{v})} , at each place v of the number field K . These results were known for polynomial maps f and all points a ∈ ℙ 1 ⁢ ( k ) {a\in\mathbb{P}^{1}(k)} without the stability hypothesis,[21, 14],and for maps f that are quotients of endomorphisms of elliptic curves E over k and all points a ∈ ℙ 1 ⁢ ( k ) {a\in\mathbb{P}^{1}(k)} . [32, 29].Finally, we characterize our stability condition in terms of the geometry of the induced map f ~ : X × ℙ 1 ⇢ X × ℙ 1 {\tilde{f}:X\times\mathbb{P}^{1}\dashrightarrow X\times\mathbb{P}^{1}} over K ; and we prove the existence of relative Néron models for the pair ( f , a ) {(f,a)} , when a is a Fatou point at a place γ of k , where the local canonical height λ ^ f , γ ⁢ ( a ) {\hat{\lambda}_{f,\gamma}(a)} can be computed as an intersection number.  more » « less

  1. Abstract Inspired by Lehmer’s conjecture on the non-vanishing of the Ramanujan $$\tau $$ τ -function, one may ask whether an odd integer $$\alpha $$ α can be equal to $$\tau (n)$$ τ ( n ) or any coefficient of a newform f ( z ). Balakrishnan, Craig, Ono and Tsai used the theory of Lucas sequences and Diophantine analysis to characterize non-admissible values of newforms of even weight $$k\ge 4$$ k ≥ 4 . We use these methods for weight 2 and 3 newforms and apply our results to L -functions of modular elliptic curves and certain K 3 surfaces with Picard number $$\ge 19$$ ≥ 19 . In particular, for the complete list of weight 3 newforms $$f_\lambda (z)=\sum a_\lambda (n)q^n$$ f λ ( z ) = ∑ a λ ( n ) q n that are $$\eta $$ η -products, and for $$N_\lambda $$ N λ the conductor of some elliptic curve $$E_\lambda $$ E λ , we show that if $$|a_\lambda (n)|<100$$ | a λ ( n ) | < 100 is odd with $$n>1$$ n > 1 and $$(n,2N_\lambda )=1$$ ( n , 2 N λ ) = 1 , then $$\begin{aligned} a_\lambda (n) \in&\{-5,9,\pm 11,25, \pm 41, \pm 43, -45,\pm 47,49, \pm 53,55, \pm 59, \pm 61,\\&\pm 67, -69,\pm 71,\pm 73,75, \pm 79,\pm 81, \pm 83, \pm 89,\pm 93 \pm 97, 99\}. \end{aligned}$$ a λ ( n ) ∈ { - 5 , 9 , ± 11 , 25 , ± 41 , ± 43 , - 45 , ± 47 , 49 , ± 53 , 55 , ± 59 , ± 61 , ± 67 , - 69 , ± 71 , ± 73 , 75 , ± 79 , ± 81 , ± 83 , ± 89 , ± 93 ± 97 , 99 } . Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we can rule out a few more possibilities leaving $$\begin{aligned} a_\lambda (n) \in \{-5,9,\pm 11,25,-45,49,55,-69,75,\pm 81,\pm 93, 99\}. \end{aligned}$$ a λ ( n ) ∈ { - 5 , 9 , ± 11 , 25 , - 45 , 49 , 55 , - 69 , 75 , ± 81 , ± 93 , 99 } .

  2. Abstract

    We study the problem of estimating a $k$-sparse signal ${\boldsymbol \beta }_{0}\in{\mathbb{R}}^{p}$ from a set of noisy observations $\mathbf{y}\in{\mathbb{R}}^{n}$ under the model $\mathbf{y}=\mathbf{X}{\boldsymbol \beta }+w$, where $\mathbf{X}\in{\mathbb{R}}^{n\times p}$ is the measurement matrix the row of which is drawn from distribution $N(0,{\boldsymbol \varSigma })$. We consider the class of $L_{q}$-regularized least squares (LQLS) given by the formulation $\hat{{\boldsymbol \beta }}(\lambda )=\text{argmin}_{{\boldsymbol \beta }\in{\mathbb{R}}^{p}}\frac{1}{2}\|\mathbf{y}-\mathbf{X}{\boldsymbol \beta }\|^{2}_{2}+\lambda \|{\boldsymbol \beta }\|_{q}^{q}$, where $\|\cdot \|_{q}$  $(0\le q\le 2)$ denotes the $L_{q}$-norm. In the setting $p,n,k\rightarrow \infty $ with fixed $k/p=\epsilon $ and $n/p=\delta $, we derive the asymptotic risk of $\hat{{\boldsymbol \beta }}(\lambda )$ for arbitrary covariance matrix ${\boldsymbol \varSigma }$ that generalizes the existing results for standard Gaussian design, i.e. $X_{ij}\overset{i.i.d}{\sim }N(0,1)$. The results were derived from the non-rigorous replica method. We perform a higher-order analysis for LQLS in the small-error regime in which the first dominant term can be used to determine the phase transition behavior of LQLS. Our results show that the first dominant term does not depend on the covariance structure of ${\boldsymbol \varSigma }$ in the cases $0\le q\lt 1$ and $1\lt q\le 2,$ which indicates that the correlations among predictors only affect the phase transition curve in the case $q=1$ a.k.a. LASSO. To study the influence of the covariance structure of ${\boldsymbol \varSigma }$ on the performance of LQLS in the cases $0\le q\lt 1$ and $1\lt q\le 2$, we derive the explicit formulas for the second dominant term in the expansion of the asymptotic risk in terms of small error. Extensive computational experiments confirm that our analytical predictions are consistent with numerical results.

  3. A bstract Measurements of elliptic ( v 2 ) and triangular ( v 3 ) flow coefficients of π ± , K ± , p+ $$ \overline{\mathrm{p}} $$ p ¯ , $$ {\mathrm{K}}_{\mathrm{S}}^0 $$ K S 0 , and Λ+ $$ \overline{\Lambda} $$ Λ ¯ obtained with the scalar product method in Xe-Xe collisions at $$ \sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} $$ s NN = 5 . 44 TeV are presented. The results are obtained in the rapidity range | y | < 0 . 5 and reported as a function of transverse momentum, p T , for several collision centrality classes. The flow coefficients exhibit a particle mass dependence for p T < 3 GeV/ c , while a grouping according to particle type (i.e., meson and baryon) is found at intermediate transverse momenta (3 < p T < 8 GeV/ c ). The magnitude of the baryon v 2 is larger than that of mesons up to p T = 6 GeV/ c . The centrality dependence of the shape evolution of the p T -differential v 2 is studied for the various hadron species. The v 2 coefficients of π ± , K ± , and p+ $$ \overline{\mathrm{p}} $$ p ¯ are reproduced by MUSIC hydrodynamic calculations coupled to a hadronic cascade model (UrQMD) for p T < 1 GeV/ c . A comparison with v n measurements in the corresponding centrality intervals in Pb-Pb collisions at $$ \sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} $$ s NN = 5 . 02 TeV yields an enhanced v 2 in central collisions and diminished value in semicentral collisions.

  4. A bstract The first measurements of elliptic flow of π ± , K ± , $$ \textrm{p}+\overline{\textrm{p}} $$ p + p ¯ , $$ {\textrm{K}}_{\textrm{S}}^0 $$ K S 0 , $$ \Lambda +\overline{\Lambda} $$ Λ + Λ ¯ , ϕ , $$ {\Xi}^{-}+{\overline{\Xi}}^{+} $$ Ξ − + Ξ ¯ + , and $$ {\varOmega}^{-}+{\overline{\varOmega}}^{+} $$ Ω − + Ω ¯ + using multiparticle cumulants in Pb–Pb collisions at $$ \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} $$ s NN = 5 . 02 TeV are resented. Results obtained with two- ( v 2 {2}) and four-particle cumulants ( v 2 {4}) are shown as a function of transverse momentum, p T , for various collision centrality intervals. Combining the data for both v 2 {2} and v 2 {4} also allows us to report the first measurements of the mean elliptic flow, elliptic flow fluctuations, and relative elliptic flow fluctuations for various hadron species. These observables probe the event-by-event eccentricity fluctuations in the initial state and the contributions from the dynamic evolution of the expanding quark–gluon plasma. The characteristic features observed in previous p T -differential anisotropic flow measurements for identified hadrons with two-particle correlations, namely the mass ordering at low p T and the approximate scaling with the number of constituent quarks at intermediate p T , are similarly present in the four-particle correlations and the combinations of v 2 {2} and v 2 {4}. In addition, a particle species dependence of flow fluctuations is observed that could indicate a significant contribution from final state hadronic interactions. The comparison between experimental measurements and CoLBT model calculations, which combine the various physics processes of hydrodynamics, quark coalescence, and jet fragmentation, illustrates their importance over a wide p T range.

    Abstract The production of $$\pi ^{\pm }$$ π ± , $$\mathrm{K}^{\pm }$$ K ± , $$\mathrm{K}^{0}_{S}$$ K S 0 , $$\mathrm{K}^{*}(892)^{0}$$ K ∗ ( 892 ) 0 , $$\mathrm{p}$$ p , $$\phi (1020)$$ ϕ ( 1020 ) , $$\Lambda $$ Λ , $$\Xi ^{-}$$ Ξ - , $$\Omega ^{-}$$ Ω - , and their antiparticles was measured in inelastic proton–proton (pp) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $$\sqrt{s}$$ s = 13 TeV at midrapidity ( $$|y|<0.5$$ | y | < 0.5 ) as a function of transverse momentum ( $$p_{\mathrm{T}}$$ p T ) using the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC. Furthermore, the single-particle $$p_{\mathrm{T}}$$ p T distributions of $$\mathrm{K}^{0}_{S}$$ K S 0 , $$\Lambda $$ Λ , and $$\overline{\Lambda }$$ Λ ¯ in inelastic pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 7$$ s = 7  TeV are reported here for the first time. The $$p_{\mathrm{T}}$$ p T distributions are studied at midrapidity within the transverse momentum range $$0\le p_{\mathrm{T}}\le 20$$ 0 ≤ p T ≤ 20 GeV/ c , depending on the particle species. The $$p_{\mathrm{T}}$$ p T spectra, integrated yields, and particle yield ratios are discussed as a function of collision energy and compared with measurements at lower $$\sqrt{s}$$ s and with results from various general-purpose QCD-inspired Monte Carlo models. A hardening of the spectra at high $$p_{\mathrm{T}}$$ p T with increasing collision energy is observed, which is similar for all particle species under study. The transverse mass and $$x_{\mathrm{T}}\equiv 2p_{\mathrm{T}}/\sqrt{s}$$ x T ≡ 2 p T / s scaling properties of hadron production are also studied. As the collision energy increases from $$\sqrt{s}$$ s = 7–13 TeV, the yields of non- and single-strange hadrons normalized to the pion yields remain approximately constant as a function of $$\sqrt{s}$$ s , while ratios for multi-strange hadrons indicate enhancements. The $$p_\mathrm{{T}}$$ p T -differential cross sections of $$\pi ^{\pm }$$ π ± , $$\mathrm {K}^{\pm }$$ K ± and $$\mathrm {p}$$ p ( $$\overline{\mathrm{p}}$$ p ¯ ) are compared with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations, which are found to overestimate the cross sections for $$\pi ^{\pm }$$ π ± and $$\mathrm{p}$$ p ( $$\overline{\mathrm{p}}$$ p ¯ ) at high $$p_\mathrm{{T}}$$ p T .
