   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. Counterexamples to maximal regularity for operators in divergence form

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00013-024-02014-9  

   Bechtel, Sebastian; Mooney, Connor; Veraar, Mark (August 2024, Archiv der Mathematik)

   Abstract In this paper, we present counterexamples to maximal$$L^p$$ $L^p$-regularity for a parabolic PDE. The example is a second-order operator in divergence form with space and time-dependent coefficients. It is well-known from Lions’ theory that such operators admit maximal$$L^2$$ $L^2$-regularity on$$H^{-1}$$ $H^{-1}$under a coercivity condition on the coefficients, and without any regularity conditions in time and space. We show that in general one cannot expect maximal$$L^p$$ $L^p$-regularity on$$H^{-1}(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ $H^{-1}\left(R^d\right)$or$$L^2$$ $L^2$-regularity on$$L^2(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ $L^2\left(R^d\right)$.

3. L-Systems and the Lovász Number

   https://doi.org/10.1007/s00493-025-00136-4  

   Linz, William (April 2025, Combinatorica)

   Abstract Given integers$$n> k > 0$$ $n>k>0$, and a set of integers$$L \subset [0, k-1]$$ $L\subset [0,k-1]$, anL-systemis a family of sets$$\mathcal {F}\subset \left( {\begin{array}{c}[n]\\ k\end{array}}\right) $$ $F\subset \left(\begin{array}{c}\left[n\right]\\ k\end{array}\right)$such that$$|F \cap F'| \in L$$ $|F\cap F^{\prime }|\in L$for distinct$$F, F'\in \mathcal {F}$$ $F,F^{\prime }\in F$.L-systems correspond to independent sets in a certain generalized Johnson graphG(n, k, L), so that the maximum size of anL-system is equivalent to finding the independence number of the graphG(n, k, L). TheLovász number$$\vartheta (G)$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)$is a semidefinite programming approximation of the independence number$$\alpha $$ $\alpha$of a graphG. In this paper, we determine the leading order term of$$\vartheta (G(n, k, L))$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right(n,k,L\left)\right)$of any generalized Johnson graph withkandLfixed and$$n\rightarrow \infty $$ $n\to \infty$. As an application of this theorem, we give an explicit construction of a graphGonnvertices with a large gap between the Lovász number and the Shannon capacityc(G). Specifically, we prove that for any$$\epsilon > 0$$ $ϵ>0$, for infinitely manynthere is a generalized Johnson graphGonnvertices which has ratio$$\vartheta (G)/c(G) = \Omega (n^{1-\epsilon })$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)/c\left(G\right)=\Omega \left(n^{1-ϵ}\right)$, which improves on all known constructions. The graphGa fortiorialso has ratio$$\vartheta (G)/\alpha (G) = \Omega (n^{1-\epsilon })$$ $\vartheta \left(G\right)/\alpha \left(G\right)=\Omega \left(n^{1-ϵ}\right)$, which greatly improves on the best known explicit construction.

4. Spin density matrix elements in exclusive $$\rho ^0$$ meson muoproduction

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-11359-4  

   Alexeev, G D; Alexeev, M G; Alice, C; Amoroso, A; Andrieux, V; Anosov, V; Augsten, K; Augustyniak, W; Azevedo, C_D R; Badelek, B; et al (October 2023, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract We report on a measurement of Spin Density Matrix Elements (SDMEs) in hard exclusive$$\rho ^0$$ ${\rho }^0$meson muoproduction at COMPASS using 160 GeV/cpolarised$$ \mu ^{+}$$ ${\mu }^{+}$and$$ \mu ^{-}$$ ${\mu }^{-}$beams impinging on a liquid hydrogen target. The measurement covers the kinematic range 5.0 GeV/$$c^2$$ $c^2$$$< W<$$ $<W<$17.0 GeV/$$c^2$$ $c^2$, 1.0 (GeV/c)$$^2$$ ${}^2$$$< Q^2<$$ $<Q^2<$10.0 (GeV/c)$$^2$$ ${}^2$and 0.01 (GeV/c)$$^2$$ ${}^2$$$< p_{\textrm{T}}^2<$$ $<p_{\text{T}}^2<$0.5 (GeV/c)$$^2$$ ${}^2$. Here,Wdenotes the mass of the final hadronic system,$$Q^2$$ $Q^2$the virtuality of the exchanged photon, and$$p_{\textrm{T}}$$ $p_{\text{T}}$the transverse momentum of the$$\rho ^0$$ ${\rho }^0$meson with respect to the virtual-photon direction. The measured non-zero SDMEs for the transitions of transversely polarised virtual photons to longitudinally polarised vector mesons ($$\gamma ^*_T \rightarrow V^{ }_L$$ ${\gamma }_T^{\ast }\to V_L^{}$) indicate a violation ofs-channel helicity conservation. Additionally, we observe a dominant contribution of natural-parity-exchange transitions and a very small contribution of unnatural-parity-exchange transitions, which is compatible with zero within experimental uncertainties. The results provide important input for modelling Generalised Parton Distributions (GPDs). In particular, they may allow one to evaluate in a model-dependent way the role of parton helicity-flip GPDs in exclusive$$\rho ^0$$ ${\rho }^0$production.

5. Measurement of non-prompt $${{\textrm{D}}^{0}}$$-meson elliptic flow in Pb–Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} = 5.02$$ TeV

   https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-12259-3  

   Acharya, S; Adamová, D; Aglieri_Rinella, G; Agnello, M; Agrawal, N; Ahammed, Z; Ahmad, S; Ahn, S U; Ahuja, I; Akindinov, A; et al (December 2023, The European Physical Journal C)

   Abstract The elliptic flow$$(v_2)$$ $\left(v_2\right)$of$${\textrm{D}}^{0}$$ ${\text{D}}^0$mesons from beauty-hadron decays (non-prompt$${\textrm{D}}^{0})$$ ${\text{D}}^0)$was measured in midcentral (30–50%) Pb–Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair$$\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} = 5.02$$ $\sqrt{s_{\text{NN}}}=5.02$ TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The$${\textrm{D}}^{0}$$ ${\text{D}}^0$mesons were reconstructed at midrapidity$$(|y|<0.8)$$ $\left(\right|y|<0.8)$from their hadronic decay$$\mathrm {D^0 \rightarrow K^-\uppi ^+}$$ $D^0\to K^{-}{\pi }^{+}$, in the transverse momentum interval$$2< p_{\textrm{T}} < 12$$ $2<p_{\text{T}}<12$ GeV/c. The result indicates a positive$$v_2$$ $v_2$for non-prompt$${{\textrm{D}}^{0}}$$ ${\text{D}}^0$mesons with a significance of 2.7$$\sigma $$ $\sigma$. The non-prompt$${{\textrm{D}}^{0}}$$ ${\text{D}}^0$-meson$$v_2$$ $v_2$is lower than that of prompt non-strange D mesons with 3.2$$\sigma $$ $\sigma$significance in$$2< p_\textrm{T} < 8~\textrm{GeV}/c$$ $2<p_{\text{T}}<8\text{GeV}/c$, and compatible with the$$v_2$$ $v_2$of beauty-decay electrons. Theoretical calculations of beauty-quark transport in a hydrodynamically expanding medium describe the measurement within uncertainties.
