   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$$p\rightarrow \infty $$ $p\to \infty$.

2. Transversality of holomorphic maps into hyperquadrics

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00208-025-03134-5  

   Huang, Xiaojun; Zhu, Weixia (March 2025, Mathematische Annalen)

   Abstract We study holomorphic mapsFfrom a smooth Levi non-degenerate real hypersurface$$ M_{\ell }\subset {\mathbb {C}}^n $$ $M_{\ell }\subset C^n$into a hyperquadric$$ {\mathbb {H}}_{\ell '}^N $$ $H_{{\ell }^{\prime }}^N$with signatures$$ \ell \le (n-1)/2 $$ $\ell \le (n-1)/2$and$$ \ell '\le (N-1)/2,$$ ${\ell }^{\prime }\le (N-1)/2,$respectively. Assuming that$$ N - n < n - 1,$$ $N-n<n-1,$we prove that if$$ \ell = \ell ',$$ $\ell ={\ell }^{\prime },$thenFis either CR transversal to$$ {\mathbb {H}}_{\ell }^N $$ $H_{\ell }^N$at every point of$$ M_{\ell },$$ $M_{\ell },$or it maps a neighborhood of$$ M_{\ell } $$ $M_{\ell }$in$$ {\mathbb {C}}^n $$ $C^n$into$$ {\mathbb {H}}_{\ell }^N.$$ $H_{\ell }^N.$Furthermore, in the case where$$ \ell ' > \ell ,$$ ${\ell }^{\prime }>\ell ,$we show that ifFis not CR transversal at$$0\in M_\ell ,$$ $0\in M_{\ell },$then it must be transversally flat. The latter is best possible.

3. A case study of SMEFT $$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ effects in diboson processes: pp → W±(ℓ±ν)γ

   https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP05(2024)223  

   Martin, Adam (May 2024, Journal of High Energy Physics)

   A<sc>bstract</sc> In this paper we explorepp→W^±(ℓ^±ν)γto$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ $O\left(1/{\Lambda }^4\right)$in the SMEFT expansion. Calculations to this order are necessary to properly capture SMEFT contributions that grow with energy, as the interference between energy-enhanced SMEFT effects at$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^2\right) $$ $O\left(1/{\Lambda }^2\right)$and the Standard Model is suppressed. We find that there are several dimension eight operators that interfere with the Standard Model and lead to the same energy growth, ~$$ \mathcal{O}\left({E}^4/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ $O\left(E^4/{\Lambda }^4\right)$, as dimension six squared. While energy-enhanced SMEFT contributions are a main focus, our calculation includes the complete set of$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ $O\left(1/{\Lambda }^4\right)$SMEFT effects consistent with U(3)⁵flavor symmetry. Additionally, we include the decay of theW^±→ ℓ^±ν, making the calculation actually$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {\ell}^{\pm}\nu \gamma $$ $\overline{q}{q}^{\prime }\to {\ell }^{\pm }\mathrm{\nu \gamma }$. As such, we are able to study the impact of non-resonant SMEFT operators, such as$$ \left({L}^{\dagger }{\overline{\sigma}}^{\mu }{\tau}^IL\right)\left({Q}^{\dagger }{\overline{\sigma}}^{\nu }{\tau}^IQ\right) $$ $\left(L^{†}{\overline{\sigma }}^{\mu }{\tau }^{I}L\right)\left(Q^{†}{\overline{\sigma }}^{\nu }{\tau }^{I}Q\right)$B_μν, which contribute to$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {\ell}^{\pm}\nu \gamma $$ $\overline{q}{q}^{\prime }\to {\ell }^{\pm }\mathrm{\nu \gamma }$directly and not to$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {W}^{\pm}\gamma $$ $\overline{q}{q}^{\prime }\to W^{\pm }\gamma$. We show several distributions to illustrate the shape differences of the different contributions.

4. Measurement of the mass dependence of the transverse momentum of lepton pairs in Drell–Yan production in proton–proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13\,\text {Te\hspace{-.08em}V} $$

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-11631-7  

   Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Dragicevic, M.; Valle, A. Escalante; Frühwirth, R.; Jeitler, M.; Krammer, N.; et al (July 2023, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract The double differential cross sections of the Drell–Yan lepton pair ($$\ell ^+\ell ^-$$ ${\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}$, dielectron or dimuon) production are measured as functions of the invariant mass$$m_{\ell \ell }$$ $m_{\ell \ell }$, transverse momentum$$p_{\textrm{T}} (\ell \ell )$$ $p_{\text{T}}\left(\ell \ell \right)$, and$$\varphi ^{*}_{\eta }$$ ${\phi }_{\eta }^{\ast }$. The$$\varphi ^{*}_{\eta }$$ ${\phi }_{\eta }^{\ast }$observable, derived from angular measurements of the leptons and highly correlated with$$p_{\textrm{T}} (\ell \ell )$$ $p_{\text{T}}\left(\ell \ell \right)$, is used to probe the low-$$p_{\textrm{T}} (\ell \ell )$$ $p_{\text{T}}\left(\ell \ell \right)$region in a complementary way. Dilepton masses up to 1$$\,\text {Te\hspace{-.08em}V}$$ $\text{Te}\text{V}$are investigated. Additionally, a measurement is performed requiring at least one jet in the final state. To benefit from partial cancellation of the systematic uncertainty, the ratios of the differential cross sections for various$$m_{\ell \ell }$$ $m_{\ell \ell }$ranges to those in the Z mass peak interval are presented. The collected data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 36.3$$\,\text {fb}^{-1}$$ ${\text{fb}}^{-1}$of proton–proton collisions recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13$$\,\text {Te\hspace{-.08em}V}$$ $\text{Te}\text{V}$. Measurements are compared with predictions based on perturbative quantum chromodynamics, including soft-gluon resummation.

5. Search for Higgs boson pair production in association with a vector boson in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s}=13\,\text {TeV}$$ with the ATLAS detector

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-11559-y  

   Aad, G.; Abbott, B.; Abbott, D. C.; Abeling, K.; Abidi, S. H.; Aboulhorma, A.; Abramowicz, H.; Abreu, H.; Abulaiti, Y.; Hoffman, A. C.; et al (June 2023, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract This paper reports a search for Higgs boson pair (hh) production in association with a vector boson ($$W\; {\text {o}r}\; Z$$ $W\text{o}rZ$) using 139 fb$$^{-1}$$ ${}^{-1}$of proton–proton collision data at$$\sqrt{s}=13\,\text {TeV}$$ $\sqrt{s}=13\text{TeV}$recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed in final states in which the vector boson decays leptonically ($$W\rightarrow \ell \nu ,\, Z\rightarrow \ell \ell ,\nu \nu $$ $W\to \ell \nu ,Z\to \ell \ell ,\nu \nu$with$$\ell =e, \mu $$ $\ell =e,\mu$) and the Higgs bosons each decay into a pair ofb-quarks. It targetsVhhsignals from both non-resonanthhproduction, present in the Standard Model (SM), and resonanthhproduction, as predicted in some SM extensions. A 95% confidence-level upper limit of 183 (87) times the SM cross-section is observed (expected) for non-resonantVhhproduction when assuming the kinematics are as expected in the SM. Constraints are also placed on Higgs boson coupling modifiers. For the resonant search, upper limits on the production cross-sections are derived for two specific models: one is the production of a vector boson along with a neutral heavy scalar resonanceH, in the mass range 260–1000 GeV, that decays intohh, and the other is the production of a heavier neutral pseudoscalar resonanceAthat decays into aZboson andHboson, where theAboson mass is 360–800 GeV and theHboson mass is 260–400 GeV. Constraints are also derived in the parameter space of two-Higgs-doublet models.
