Special Cases of the Shafarevich Conjecture for Complete Intersections in Abelian Varieties
In this paper, we prove the Shafarevich conjecture for certain complete intersections of hypersurfaces in abelian varieties defined over a number field $K$ using the Lawrence-Venkatesh method. The main new inputs we need are computation of certain Euler characteristics of these complete intersections and a big monodromy statement for the variation of Hodge structure arising from the middle cohomology of a family of such complete intersections. Following \cite{ls25}, we prove the latter by relat…

ChatGPT didn't object to putting a red nose on the dog or painting the rabbits green, but at least it didn't suggest I use staplers on the mice.

❝Police on horseback charged at the crowd, striking some with wood rods and batons as they cleared the street in front of the federal building. Officers then fired teargas and crowd control projectiles at the large group, sending demonstrators, hotdog vendors and passing pedestrians fleeing through the street. Some have since regrouped, ignoring an LAPD dispersal order.

Virasoro constraints for Hodge integrals
The purpose of this paper is to study Virasoro constraints for Hodge integrals in Gromov-Witten theory of any target varieties. Results consist of the following: Firstly, we propose Virasoro conjecture for Hodge integrals in Gromov-Witten theory of any target varieties; Secondly, we prove Virasoro constraints for Hodge integrals in genus zero of any target varieties; Thirdly, we prove the genus-1 $L_1^{\mathbb{E}}$ constraint with one Hodge character class insertion for any target varieties; La…

Been playing Pistol Whip again. Such a great game. The Black Magic "hard" level, with Reckless and Hell options is ridiculously hard. Finishing at all is a feat.
Was wondering how the hell the top players managed to score so highly. I was in like 4th place thinking I was playing a practically perfect game.
But it turns out only with 188 hits. The top three, I noticed, has 189 hits! There's a secret dude!?
Found him, flying around in the sky mid level on the right.
Nice. That's me 3rd in the global leaderboard for Black Magic Hard Reckless Hell now then.
Maybe I shouldn't be giving the game away. If someone learns of the secret dude from this post and then beats me into 4th place I'll be miffed.
