1. Weak-Type (1,1) Inequality for Discrete Maximal Functions and Pointwise Ergodic Theorems Along Thin Arithmetic Sets

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00041-024-10093-z  

   Daskalakis, Leonidas (June 2024, Journal of Fourier Analysis and Applications)

   Abstract We establish weak-type (1, 1) bounds for the maximal function associated with ergodic averaging operators modeled on a wide class of thin deterministic setsB. As a corollary we obtain the corresponding pointwise convergence result on$$L^1$$ $L^1$. This contributes yet another counterexample for the conjecture of Rosenblatt and Wierdl from 1991 asserting the failure of pointwise convergence on$$L^1$$ $L^1$of ergodic averages along arithmetic sets with zero Banach density. The second main result is a multiparameter pointwise ergodic theorem in the spirit of Dunford and Zygmund alongBon$$L^p$$ $L^p$,$$p>1$$ $p>1$, which is derived by establishing uniform oscillation estimates and certain vector-valued maximal estimates.

2. 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.

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. L-Systems and the Lovász Number

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00493-025-00136-4  

   Linz, William (April 2025, Combinatorica)

   Abstract Given integers$$n> k > 0$$ $n>k>0$, and a set of integers$$L \subset [0, k-1]$$ $L\subset [0,k-1]$, anL-systemis a family of sets$$\mathcal {F}\subset \left( {\begin{array}{c}[n]\\ k\end{array}}\right) $$ $F\subset \left(\begin{array}{c}\left[n\right]\\ k\end{array}\right)$such that$$|F \cap F'| \in L$$ $|F\cap F^{\prime }|\in L$for distinct$$F, F'\in \mathcal {F}$$ $F,F^{\prime }\in F$.L-systems correspond to independent sets in a certain generalized Johnson graphG(n, k, L), so that the maximum size of anL-system is equivalent to finding the independence number of the graphG(n, k, L). TheLovász number$$\vartheta (G)$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)$is a semidefinite programming approximation of the independence number$$\alpha $$ $\alpha$of a graphG. In this paper, we determine the leading order term of$$\vartheta (G(n, k, L))$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right(n,k,L\left)\right)$of any generalized Johnson graph withkandLfixed and$$n\rightarrow \infty $$ $n\to \infty$. As an application of this theorem, we give an explicit construction of a graphGonnvertices with a large gap between the Lovász number and the Shannon capacityc(G). Specifically, we prove that for any$$\epsilon > 0$$ $ϵ>0$, for infinitely manynthere is a generalized Johnson graphGonnvertices which has ratio$$\vartheta (G)/c(G) = \Omega (n^{1-\epsilon })$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)/c\left(G\right)=\Omega \left(n^{1-ϵ}\right)$, which improves on all known constructions. The graphGa fortiorialso has ratio$$\vartheta (G)/\alpha (G) = \Omega (n^{1-\epsilon })$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)/\alpha \left(G\right)=\Omega \left(n^{1-ϵ}\right)$, which greatly improves on the best known explicit construction.

5. Restricted spaces of holomorphic sections vanishing along subvarieties

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00209-025-03706-w  

   Coman, Dan; Marinescu, George; Nguyên, Viêt-Anh (May 2025, Mathematische Zeitschrift)

   Abstract LetXbe a compact normal complex space of dimensionnandLbe a holomorphic line bundle onX. Suppose that$$\Sigma =(\Sigma _1,\ldots ,\Sigma _\ell )$$ $\Sigma =({\Sigma }_1,\dots ,{\Sigma }_{\ell })$is an$$\ell $$ $\ell$-tuple of distinct irreducible proper analytic subsets ofX,$$\tau =(\tau _1,\ldots ,\tau _\ell )$$ $\tau =({\tau }_1,\dots ,{\tau }_{\ell })$is an$$\ell $$ $\ell$-tuple of positive real numbers, and let$$H^0_0(X,L^p)$$ $H_0^0(X,L^p)$be the space of holomorphic sections of$$L^p:=L^{\otimes p}$$ $L^p:=L^{\otimes p}$that vanish to order at least$$\tau _jp$$ ${\tau }_{j}p$along$$\Sigma _j$$ ${\Sigma }_j$,$$1\le j\le \ell $$ $1\le j\le \ell$. If$$Y\subset X$$ $Y\subset X$is an irreducible analytic subset of dimensionm, we consider the space$$H^0_0 (X|Y, L^p)$$ $H_0^0\left(X\right|Y,L^p)$of holomorphic sections of$$L^p|_Y$$ $L^p{|}_Y$that extend to global holomorphic sections in$$H^0_0(X,L^p)$$ $H_0^0(X,L^p)$. Assuming that the triplet$$(L,\Sigma ,\tau )$$ $(L,\Sigma ,\tau )$is big in the sense that$$\dim H^0_0(X,L^p)\sim p^n$$ $dim{H}_0^0(X,L^p)\sim p^n$, we give a general condition onYto ensure that$$\dim H^0_0(X|Y,L^p)\sim p^m$$ $dim{H}_0^0\left(X\right|Y,L^p)\sim p^m$. WhenLis endowed with a continuous Hermitian metric, we show that the Fubini-Study currents of the spaces$$H^0_0(X|Y,L^p)$$ $H_0^0\left(X\right|Y,L^p)$converge to a certain equilibrium current onY. We apply this to the study of the equidistribution of zeros inYof random holomorphic sections in$$H^0_0(X|Y,L^p)$$ $H_0^0\left(X\right|Y,L^p)$as$$p\rightarrow \infty $$ $p\to \infty$.
