1. Property G and the 4-genus

   https://doi.org/10.1090/btran/153  

   Ni, Yi (January 2024, Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, Series B)

   We say a null-homologous knot $K$in a $3$-manifold $Y$has Property G, if the Thurston norm and fiberedness of the complement of $K$is preserved under the zero surgery on $K$. In this paper, we will show that, if the smooth $4$-genus of $K\times <\#comment/>\left\{0\right\}$(in a certain homology class) in $(Y\times <\#comment/>[0,1\left]\right)\mathrm{\#<\#comment/>}N\stackrel{¯<\#comment/>}{\mathbb{C}{P}^2}$, where $Y$is a rational homology sphere, is smaller than the Seifert genus of $K$, then $K$has Property G. When the smooth $4$-genus is $0$, $Y$can be taken to be any closed, oriented $3$-manifold.

2. On regularity of \overline∂-solutions on 𝑎_{𝑞} domains with 𝐶² boundary in complex manifolds

   https://doi.org/10.1090/tran/9315  

   Gong, Xianghong (March 2025, Transactions of the American Mathematical Society)

   We study regularity of solutions $u$to $\stackrel{¯<\#comment/>}{\mathrm{\partial <\#comment/>}}u=f$on a relatively compact $C^2$domain $D$in a complex manifold of dimension $n$, where $f$is a $(0,q)$form. Assume that there are either $(q+1)$negative or $(n-<\#comment/>q)$positive Levi eigenvalues at each point of boundary $\mathrm{\partial <\#comment/>}D$. Under the necessary condition that a locally $L^2$solution exists on the domain, we show the existence of the solutions on the closure of the domain that gain $1/2$derivative when $q=1$and $f$is in the Hölder–Zygmund space ${\mathrm{\Lambda <\#comment/>}}^r\left(D\right)$with $r>1$. For $q>1$, the same regularity for the solutions is achieved when $\mathrm{\partial <\#comment/>}D$is either sufficiently smooth or of $(n-<\#comment/>q)$positive Levi eigenvalues everywhere on $\mathrm{\partial <\#comment/>}D$.

3. A modular construction of unramified 𝑝-extensions of ℚ(ℕ^{1/𝕡})

   https://doi.org/10.1090/bproc/141  

   Lang, Jaclyn; Wake, Preston (October 2022, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, Series B)

   We show that for primes $N,p\ge <\#comment/>5$with $N\equiv <\#comment/>-<\#comment/>1modp$, the class number of $\mathbb{Q}\left(N^{1/p}\right)$is divisible by $p$. Our methods are via congruences between Eisenstein series and cusp forms. In particular, we show that when $N\equiv <\#comment/>-<\#comment/>1modp$, there is always a cusp form of weight $2$and level ${\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}}_0\left(N^2\right)$whose $\mathrm{\ell <\#comment/>}$th Fourier coefficient is congruent to $\mathrm{\ell <\#comment/>}+1$modulo a prime above $p$, for all primes $\mathrm{\ell <\#comment/>}$. We use the Galois representation of such a cusp form to explicitly construct an unramified degree- $p$extension of $\mathbb{Q}\left(N^{1/p}\right)$.

4. On the Boundary Behavior of Mass-Minimizing Integral Currents

   https://doi.org/10.1090/memo/1446  

   De_Lellis, Camillo; De_Philippis, Guido; Hirsch, Jonas; Massaccesi, Annalisa (November 2023, Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society)

   Let $\mathrm{\Sigma <\#comment/>}$be a smooth Riemannian manifold, $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}\subset <\#comment/>\mathrm{\Sigma <\#comment/>}$a smooth closed oriented submanifold of codimension higher than $2$and $T$an integral area-minimizing current in $\mathrm{\Sigma <\#comment/>}$which bounds $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$. We prove that the set of regular points of $T$at the boundary is dense in $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$. Prior to our theorem the existence of any regular point was not known, except for some special choice of $\mathrm{\Sigma <\#comment/>}$and $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$. As a corollary of our theorem we answer to a question in Almgren’sAlmgren’s big regularity paperfrom 2000 showing that, if $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$is connected, then $T$has at least one point $p$of multiplicity $\frac{1}{2}$, namely there is a neighborhood of the point $p$where $T$is a classical submanifold with boundary $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$; we generalize Almgren’s connectivity theorem showing that the support of $T$is always connected if $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$is connected; we conclude a structural result on $T$when $\mathrm{\Gamma <\#comment/>}$consists of more than one connected component, generalizing a previous theorem proved by Hardt and Simon in 1979 when $\mathrm{\Sigma <\#comment/>}={\mathbb{R}}^{m+1}$and $T$is $m$-dimensional.

5. Super-polynomial accuracy of one dimensional randomized nets using the median of means

   https://doi.org/10.1090/mcom/3791  

   Pan, Zexin; Owen, Art (March 2023, Mathematics of Computation)

   Let $f$be analytic on $[0,1]$with $|f^{\left(k\right)}\left(1/2\right)|⩽<\#comment/>A{\mathrm{\alpha <\#comment/>}}^{k}k!$for some constants $A$and $\mathrm{\alpha <\#comment/>}>2$and all $k⩾<\#comment/>1$. We show that the median estimate of $\mathrm{\mu <\#comment/>}={\int <\#comment/>}_0^{1}f\left(x\right)\mathrm{d}x$under random linear scrambling with $n=2^m$points converges at the rate $O\left(n^{-<\#comment/>c\log <\#comment/>\left(n\right)}\right)$for any $c>3\log <\#comment/>\left(2\right)/{\mathrm{\pi <\#comment/>}}^2\approx <\#comment/>0.21$. We also get a super-polynomial convergence rate for the sample median of $2k-<\#comment/>1$random linearly scrambled estimates, when $k/m$is bounded away from zero. When $f$has a $p$’th derivative that satisfies a $\mathrm{\lambda <\#comment/>}$-Hölder condition then the median of means has error $O\left(n^{-<\#comment/>(p+\mathrm{\lambda <\#comment/>})+\mathrm{ϵ<\#comment/>}}\right)$for any $\mathrm{ϵ<\#comment/>}>0$, if $k\to <\#comment/>\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}$as $m\to <\#comment/>\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}$. The proof techniques use methods from analytic combinatorics that have not previously been applied to quasi-Monte Carlo methods, most notably an asymptotic expression from Hardy and Ramanujan on the number of partitions of a natural number.
