We study regularity of solutions to on a relatively compact domain in a complex manifold of dimension , where is a form. Assume that there are either negative or positive Levi eigenvalues at each point of boundary . Under the necessary condition that a locally solution exists on the domain, we show the existence of the solutions on the closure of the domain that gain derivative when and is in the Hölder–Zygmund space with . For , the same regularity for the solutions is achieved when is either sufficiently smooth or of positive Levi eigenvalues everywhere on .

Regularity and nondegeneracy for nonlocal Bernoulli problems with variable kernels
We consider a generalization of the Bernoulli free boundary problem where the underlying differential operator is a nonlocal, non-translation-invariant elliptic operator of order . Because of the lack of translation invariance, the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension is unavailable, and we must work with the nonlocal problem directly instead of transforming to a thin free boundary problem. We prove global Hölder continuity of minimizers for both the one- and two-phase problems. Next, for the one-phase problem, we show Hölder continuity at the free boundary with the optimal exponent . We also prove matching nondegeneracy estimates. A key novelty of our work is that all our findings hold without requiring any regularity assumptions on the kernel of the nonlocal operator. This characteristic makes them crucial in the development of a universal regularity theory for nonlocal free boundary problems.

Let be analytic on with for some constants and and all . We show that the median estimate of under random linear scrambling with points converges at the rate for any . We also get a super-polynomial convergence rate for the sample median of random linearly scrambled estimates, when is bounded away from zero. When has a ’th derivative that satisfies a -Hölder condition then the median of means has error for any , if as . 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.more » « less

In this paper we consider which families of finite simple groups have the property that for each there exists such that, if and are normal subsets of with at least elements each, then every non-trivial element of is the product of an element of and an element of . We show that this holds in a strong and effective sense for finite simple groups of Lie type of bounded rank, while it does not hold for alternating groups or groups of the form where is fixed and . However, in the case and alternating this holds with an explicit bound on in terms of . Related problems and applications are also discussed. In particular we show that, if are non-trivial words, is a finite simple group of Lie type of bounded rank, and for , denotes the probability that where are chosen uniformly and independently, then, as , the distribution tends to the uniform distribution on with respect to the norm.more » « less

We develop a higher semiadditive version of Grothendieck-Witt theory. We then apply the theory in the case of a finite field to study the higher semiadditive structure of the -local sphere at the prime , in particular realizing the non- -adic rational element as a “semiadditive cardinality.” As a further application, we compute and clarify certain power operations in .more » « less

In this paper, we consider higher regularity of a weak solution to stationary Stokes systems with variable coefficients. Under the assumptions that coefficients and data are piecewise in a bounded domain consisting of a finite number of subdomains with interfacial boundaries in , where is a positive integer, , and , we show that and are piecewise , where . Our result is new even in the 2D case with piecewise constant coefficients.more » « less
