1. Spherical convex hull of random points on a wedge

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00208-023-02704-9

   Abstract Consider two half-spaces$$H_1^+$$ $H_1^{+}$and$$H_2^+$$ $H_2^{+}$in$${\mathbb {R}}^{d+1}$$ $R^{d+1}$whose bounding hyperplanes$$H_1$$ $H_1$and$$H_2$$ $H_2$are orthogonal and pass through the origin. The intersection$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d:={\mathbb {S}}^d\cap H_1^+\cap H_2^+$$ $S_{2,+}^d:=S^d\cap H_1^{+}\cap H_2^{+}$is a spherical convex subset of thed-dimensional unit sphere$${\mathbb {S}}^d$$ $S^d$, which contains a great subsphere of dimension$$d-2$$ $d-2$and is called a spherical wedge. Choosenindependent random points uniformly at random on$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d$$ $S_{2,+}^d$and consider the expected facet number of the spherical convex hull of these points. It is shown that, up to terms of lower order, this expectation grows like a constant multiple of$$\log n$$ $logn$. A similar behaviour is obtained for the expected facet number of a homogeneous Poisson point process on$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d$$ $S_{2,+}^d$. The result is compared to the corresponding behaviour of classical Euclidean random polytopes and of spherical random polytopes on a half-sphere.

2. VC-Dimension of Hyperplanes Over Finite Fields

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00373-025-02909-6  

   Ascoli, Ruben; Betti, Livia; Cheigh, Justin; Iosevich, Alex; Jeong, Ryan; Liu, Xuyan; McDonald, Brian; Milgrim, Wyatt; Miller, Steven J; Romero_Acosta, Francisco; et al (April 2025, Graphs and Combinatorics)

   Abstract Let$$\mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $F_q^d$be thed-dimensional vector space over the finite field withqelements. For a subset$$E\subseteq \mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $E\subseteq F_q^d$and a fixed nonzero$$t\in \mathbb {F}_q$$ $t\in F_q$, let$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)=\{h_y: y\in E\}$$ $H_t\left(E\right)=\{h_y:y\in E\}$, where$$h_y:E\rightarrow \{0,1\}$$ $h_y:E\to \{0,1\}$is the indicator function of the set$$\{x\in E: x\cdot y=t\}$$ $\{x\in E:x·y=t\}$. Two of the authors, with Maxwell Sun, showed in the case$$d=3$$ $d=3$that if$$|E|\ge Cq^{\frac{11}{4}}$$ $\left|E\right|\ge C{q}^{\frac{11}{4}}$andqis sufficiently large, then the VC-dimension of$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)$$ $H_t\left(E\right)$is 3. In this paper, we generalize the result to arbitrary dimension by showing that the VC-dimension of$$\mathcal {H}_t(E)$$ $H_t\left(E\right)$isdwhenever$$E\subseteq \mathbb {F}_q^d$$ $E\subseteq F_q^d$with$$|E|\ge C_d q^{d-\frac{1}{d-1}}$$ $\left|E\right|\ge C_d{q}^{d-\frac{1}{d-1}}$.

3. Carleson’s $$\varepsilon ^{2}$$ conjecture in higher dimensions

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00222-025-01337-w  

   Fleschler, Ian; Tolsa, Xavier; Villa, Michele (July 2025, Inventiones mathematicae)

   Abstract In this paper we prove a higher dimensional analogue of Carleson’s$$\varepsilon ^{2}$$ ${\epsilon }^2$conjecture. Given two arbitrary disjoint Borel sets$$\Omega ^{+},\Omega ^{-}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ ${\Omega }^{+},{\Omega }^{-}\subset R^{n+1}$, and$$x\in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ $x\in R^{n+1}$,$$r>0$$ $r>0$, we denote$$ \varepsilon _{n}(x,r) := \frac{1}{r^{n}}\, \inf _{H^{+}} \mathcal{H}^{n} \left ( ((\partial B(x,r)\cap H^{+}) \setminus \Omega ^{+}) \cup (( \partial B(x,r)\cap H^{-}) \setminus \Omega ^{-})\right ), $$ ${\epsilon }_n(x,r):=\frac{1}{r^n}\underset{H^{+}}{inf}{H}^n\left(\right(\left(\partial B\right(x,r)\cap H^{+})\setminus {\Omega }^{+})\cup (\left(\partial B\right(x,r)\cap H^{-})\setminus {\Omega }^{-}\left)\right),$where the infimum is taken over all open affine half-spaces$$H^{+}$$ $H^{+}$such that$$x \in \partial H^{+}$$ $x\in \partial H^{+}$and we define$$H^{-}= \mathbb{R}^{n+1} \setminus \overline{H^{+}}$$ $H^{-}=R^{n+1}\setminus \overline{H^{+}}$. Our first main result asserts that the set of points$$x\in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ $x\in R^{n+1}$where$$ \int _{0}^{1} \varepsilon _{n}(x,r)^{2} \, \frac{dr}{r}< \infty $$ ${\int }_0^1{\epsilon }_n{(x,r)}^2\frac{dr}{r}<\infty$is$$n$$ $n$-rectifiable. For our second main result we assume that$$\Omega ^{+}$$ ${\Omega }^{+}$,$$\Omega ^{-}$$ ${\Omega }^{-}$are open and that$$\Omega ^{+}\cup \Omega ^{-}$$ ${\Omega }^{+}\cup {\Omega }^{-}$satisfies the capacity density condition. For each$$x \in \partial \Omega ^{+} \cup \partial \Omega ^{-}$$ $x\in \partial {\Omega }^{+}\cup \partial {\Omega }^{-}$and$$r>0$$ $r>0$, we denote by$$\alpha ^{\pm }(x,r)$$ ${\alpha }^{\pm }(x,r)$the characteristic constant of the (spherical) open sets$$\Omega ^{\pm }\cap \partial B(x,r)$$ ${\Omega }^{\pm }\cap \partial B(x,r)$. We show that, up to a set of$$\mathcal{H}^{n}$$ $H^n$measure zero,$$x$$ $x$is a tangent point for both$$\partial \Omega ^{+}$$ $\partial {\Omega }^{+}$and$$\partial \Omega ^{-}$$ $\partial {\Omega }^{-}$if and only if$$ \int _{0}^{1} \min (1,\alpha ^{+}(x,r) + \alpha ^{-}(x,r) -2) \frac{dr}{r} < \infty . $$ ${\int }_0^{1}min(1,{\alpha }^{+}(x,r)+{\alpha }^{-}(x,r)-2)\frac{dr}{r}<\infty .$The first result is new even in the plane and the second one improves and extends to higher dimensions the$$\varepsilon ^{2}$$ ${\epsilon }^2$conjecture of Carleson.

4. Transversality of holomorphic maps into hyperquadrics

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

   Huang, Xiaojun; Zhu, Weixia (June 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.

5. Global well-posedness for 2D generalized parabolic Anderson model via paracontrolled calculus

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s40072-025-00358-z  

   Shen, Hao; Zhu, Rongchan; Zhu, Xiangchan (May 2025, Stochastics and Partial Differential Equations: Analysis and Computations)

   Abstract This article revisits the problem of global well-posedness for the generalized parabolic Anderson model on$$\mathbb {R}^+\times \mathbb {T}^2$$ $R^{+}\times T^2$within the framework of paracontrolled calculus (Gubinelli et al. in Forum Math, 2015). The model is given by the equation:$$\begin{aligned} (\partial _t-\Delta ) u=F(u)\eta \end{aligned}$$ $\begin{array}{c}({\partial }_t-\Delta )u=F\left(u\right)\eta \end{array}$where$$\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$$ $\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$with$$1/6>\kappa >0$$ $1/6>\kappa >0$, and$$F\in C_b^2(\mathbb {R})$$ $F\in C_b^2\left(R\right)$. Assume that$$\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$$ $\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$and can be lifted to enhanced noise, we derive new a priori bounds. The key idea follows from the recent work by Chandra et al. (A priori bounds for 2-d generalised Parabolic Anderson Model,,2024), to represent the leading error term as a transport type term, and our techniques encompass the paracontrolled calculus, the maximum principle, and the localization approach (i.e. high-low frequency argument).
