   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. VC-Dimension of Hyperplanes Over Finite Fields

   Ascoli, Ruben; Betti, Livia; Cheigh, Justin; Iosevich, Alex; Jeong, Ryan; Liu, Xuyan; McDonald, Brian; Milgrim, Wyatt; Miller, Steven_J; Romero_Acosta, Francisco; et al (March 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. Multipliers on bi-parameter Haar system Hardy spaces

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

   Lechner, R.; Motakis, P.; Müller, P_F_X; Schlumprecht, Th (May 2024, Mathematische Annalen)

   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$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-D$$ $\text{Id}-D$.

4. On a Traveling Salesman Problem for Points in the Unit Cube

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00453-024-01257-w  

   Balogh, József; Clemen, Felix Christian; Dumitrescu, Adrian (September 2024, Algorithmica)

   Abstract LetXbe ann-element point set in thek-dimensional unit cube$$[0,1]^k$$ ${[0,1]}^k$where$$k \ge 2$$ $k\ge 2$. According to an old result of Bollobás and Meir (Oper Res Lett 11:19–21, 1992) , there exists a cycle (tour)$$x_1, x_2, \ldots , x_n$$ $x_1,x_2,\dots ,x_n$through thenpoints, such that$$\left( \sum _{i=1}^n |x_i - x_{i+1}|^k \right) ^{1/k} \le c_k$$ ${\left({\sum }_{i=1}^n,{|x_i-x_{i+1}|}^k\right)}^{1/k}\le c_k$, where$$|x-y|$$ $|x-y|$is the Euclidean distance betweenxandy, and$$c_k$$ $c_k$is an absolute constant that depends only onk, where$$x_{n+1} \equiv x_1$$ $x_{n+1}\equiv x_1$. From the other direction, for every$$k \ge 2$$ $k\ge 2$and$$n \ge 2$$ $n\ge 2$, there existnpoints in$$[0,1]^k$$ ${[0,1]}^k$, such that their shortest tour satisfies$$\left( \sum _{i=1}^n |x_i - x_{i+1}|^k \right) ^{1/k} = 2^{1/k} \cdot \sqrt{k}$$ ${\left({\sum }_{i=1}^n,{|x_i-x_{i+1}|}^k\right)}^{1/k}=2^{1/k}·\sqrt{k}$. For the plane, the best constant is$$c_2=2$$ $c_2=2$and this is the only exact value known. Bollobás and Meir showed that one can take$$c_k = 9 \left( \frac{2}{3} \right) ^{1/k} \cdot \sqrt{k}$$ $c_k=9{\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)}^{1/k}·\sqrt{k}$for every$$k \ge 3$$ $k\ge 3$and conjectured that the best constant is$$c_k = 2^{1/k} \cdot \sqrt{k}$$ $c_k=2^{1/k}·\sqrt{k}$, for every$$k \ge 2$$ $k\ge 2$. Here we significantly improve the upper bound and show that one can take$$c_k = 3 \sqrt{5} \left( \frac{2}{3} \right) ^{1/k} \cdot \sqrt{k}$$ $c_k=3\sqrt{5}{\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)}^{1/k}·\sqrt{k}$or$$c_k = 2.91 \sqrt{k} \ (1+o_k(1))$$ $c_k=2.91\sqrt{k}(1+o_k\left(1\right))$. Our bounds are constructive. We also show that$$c_3 \ge 2^{7/6}$$ $c_3\ge 2^{7/6}$, which disproves the conjecture for$$k=3$$ $k=3$. Connections to matching problems, power assignment problems, related problems, including algorithms, are discussed in this context. A slightly revised version of the Bollobás–Meir conjecture is proposed.

5. On Pisier Type Theorems

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00493-024-00115-1  

   Nešetřil, Jaroslav; Rödl, Vojtěch; Sales, Marcelo (July 2024, Combinatorica)

   Abstract For any integer$$h\geqslant 2$$ $h⩾2$, a set of integers$$B=\{b_i\}_{i\in I}$$ $B={\left\{b_i\right\}}_{i\in I}$is a$$B_h$$ $B_h$-set if allh-sums$$b_{i_1}+\ldots +b_{i_h}$$ $b_{i_1}+\dots +b_{i_h}$with$$i_1<\ldots $i_1<\dots <i_h$are distinct. Answering a question of Alon and Erdős [2], for every$$h\geqslant 2$$ $h⩾2$we construct a set of integersXwhich is not a union of finitely many$$B_h$$ $B_h$-sets, yet any finite subset$$Y\subseteq X$$ $Y\subseteq X$contains an$$B_h$$ $B_h$-setZwith$$|Z|\geqslant \varepsilon |Y|$$ $\left|Z\right|⩾\epsilon \left|Y\right|$, where$$\varepsilon :=\varepsilon (h)$$ $\epsilon :=\epsilon \left(h\right)$. We also discuss questions related to a problem of Pisier about the existence of a setAwith similar properties when replacing$$B_h$$ $B_h$-sets by the requirement that all finite sums$$\sum _{j\in J}b_j$$ ${\sum }_{j\in J}{b}_j$are distinct.
