1. 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.

2. Multipliers on bi-parameter Haar system Hardy spaces

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

   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. Fractionalization of coset non-invertible symmetry and exotic Hall conductance

   https://doi.org/10.21468/SciPostPhys.17.3.095  

   Hsin, Po-Shen; Kobayashi, Ryohei; Zhang, Carolyn (January 2024, SciPost Physics)

   We investigate fractionalization of non-invertible symmetry in (2+1)D topological orders. We focus on coset non-invertible symmetries obtained by gauging non-normal subgroups of invertible0 $0$-form symmetries. These symmetries can arise as global symmetries in quantum spin liquids, given by the quotient of the projective symmetry group by a non-normal subgroup as invariant gauge group. We point out that such coset non-invertible symmetries in topological orders can exhibit symmetry fractionalization: each anyon can carry a “fractional charge” under the coset non-invertible symmetry given by a gauge invariant superposition of fractional quantum numbers. We present various examples using field theories and quantum double lattice models, such as fractional quantum Hall systems with charge conjugation symmetry gauged and finite group gauge theory from gauging a non-normal subgroup. They include symmetry enrichedS_3 $S_3$andO(2) $O\left(2\right)$gauge theories. We show that such systems have a fractionalized continuous non-invertible coset symmetry and a well-defined electric Hall conductance. The coset symmetry enforces a gapless edge state if the boundary preserves the continuous non-invertible symmetry. We propose a general approach for constructing coset symmetry defects using a “sandwich” construction: non-invertible symmetry defects can generally be constructed from an invertible defect sandwiched by condensation defects. The anomaly free condition for finite coset symmetry is also identified.

4. Measurements of the associated production of a W boson and a charm quark in proton–proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s}=8\,\text {TeV} $$

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10897-7  

   Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Erö, J.; Valle, A. Escalante; Frühwirth, R.; Jeitler, M.; Krammer, N.; Lechner, L.; et al (December 2022, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract Measurements of the associated production of a W boson and a charm ($${\text {c}}$$ $\text{c}$) quark in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8$$\,\text {TeV}$$ $\text{TeV}$are reported. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 19.7$$\,\text {fb}^{-1}$$ ${\text{fb}}^{-1}$collected by the CMS detector at the LHC. The W bosons are identified through their leptonic decays to an electron or a muon, and a neutrino. Charm quark jets are selected using distinctive signatures of charm hadron decays. The product of the cross section and branching fraction$$\sigma (\text {p}\text {p}\rightarrow \text {W}+ {\text {c}}+ \text {X}) {\mathcal {B}}(\text {W}\rightarrow \ell \upnu )$$ $\sigma (\text{pp}\to \text{W}+\text{c}+\text{X})B(\text{W}\to \ell \nu )$, where$$\ell = \text {e}$$ $\ell =\text{e}$or$$\upmu $$ $\mu$, and the cross section ratio$$\sigma (\text {p}\text {p}\rightarrow {{\text {W}}^{+} + \bar{{\text {c}}} + \text {X}}) / \sigma (\text {p}\text {p}\rightarrow {{\text {W}}^{-} + {\text {c}}+ \text {X}})$$ $\sigma (\text{pp}\to {\text{W}}^{+}+\overline{\text{c}}+\text{X})/\sigma (\text{pp}\to {\text{W}}^{-}+\text{c}+\text{X})$are measured in a fiducial volume and differentially as functions of the pseudorapidity and of the transverse momentum of the lepton from the W boson decay. The results are compared with theoretical predictions. The impact of these measurements on the determination of the strange quark distribution is assessed.

5. A search for decays of the Higgs boson to invisible particles in events with a top-antitop quark pair or a vector boson in proton-proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V} $$

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-11952-7  

   Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Andrejkovic, J. W.; Bergauer, T.; Chatterjee, S.; Damanakis, K.; Dragicevic, M.; Escalante Del Valle, A.; Hussain, P. S.; Jeitler, M.; et al (October 2023, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract A search for decays to invisible particles of Higgs bosons produced in association with a top-antitop quark pair or a vector boson, which both decay to a fully hadronic final state, has been performed using proton-proton collision data collected at$${\sqrt{s}=13\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}}$$ $\sqrt{s}=13\text{Te}\text{V}$by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138$$\,\text {fb}^{-1}$$ ${\text{fb}}^{-1}$. The 95% confidence level upper limit set on the branching fraction of the 125$$\,\text {Ge}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}$$ $\text{Ge}\text{V}$Higgs boson to invisible particles,$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ $B(\text{H}\to \text{inv})$, is 0.54 (0.39 expected), assuming standard model production cross sections. The results of this analysis are combined with previous$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ $B(\text{H}\to \text{inv})$searches carried out at$${\sqrt{s}=7}$$ $\sqrt{s}=7$, 8, and 13$$\,\text {Te}\hspace{-.08em}\text {V}$$ $\text{Te}\text{V}$in complementary production modes. The combined upper limit at 95% confidence level on$${\mathcal {B}({\textrm{H}} \rightarrow \text {inv})}$$ $B(\text{H}\to \text{inv})$is 0.15 (0.08 expected).
