Difference of weighted composition operators between Bergman spaces
We first obtain a simpler proof of the main results in [IEOT, {\bf 93}(2021), 17], which characterized the bounded and compact differences $C_{u,φ}-C_{v,ψ}$ of two weighted composition operators acting from $A_α^p(\mathbb{D})$ to $A_α^q(\mathbb{D})$. Then we get some characterizations for the difference of weighted composition operator belonging to Schatten class. Moreover, compact difference of a weighted composition operator and a unweighted composition operator on Hardy space is also stu…

Global Bifurcation of Spiral Wave Solutions to the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation
We use the $\mathbb T^2$-equivariant degree to establish the existence of unbounded branches of rotating spiral wave solutions with any number of arms for the complex Ginzburg Landau equation GLe on the planar unit disc, leveraging the spatial symmetries inherent to the problem and avoiding limiting constraints encountered in previous studies (Dai 2021) that utilized the classical Leray-Schauder degree. Our results provide rigorous mathematical justification for the formation and persistence of…

Certification of High-Dimensional Entanglement Within the Resource Theory of Buscemi Nonlocality
The study on the certification of high degree entanglement, which is quantified in terms of Schmidt number, attracts much attention recently. Drawing inspiration from the work [PRX QUANTUM 2, 020301 (2021)], we first introduce resource theories of distributed measurements and teleportation instruments generated by a bipartite mixed state. Next we quantitatively characterized the relations among the convex resource theories of distributed measurements, teleportation instruments, and bipartite mi…

Timing and spectral variability in 2S 1417-624 observed with Insight-HXMT
We present the results of the spectral and timing analyses of the accreting X-ray pulsar, 2S 1417-624, during the 2018 and 2021 outbursts with Insight-HXMT. We find that the pulse profiles in all energy bands exhibit clear double-peaked structures at low flux states. In the 1-10 keV band, the pulse profiles evolve from double to triple peaks at a flux level of $\sim$4.1$\ \times \ 10^{-9}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$, and from triple to quadruple peaks at $\sim$6.4$\ \times \ 10^{-9}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ …

Refuting Perfect Matchings in Spectral Expanders is Hard
This work studies the complexity of refuting the existence of a perfect matching in spectral expanders with an odd number of vertices, in the Polynomial Calculus (PC) and Sum of Squares (SoS) proof system. Austrin and Risse [SODA, 2021] showed that refuting perfect matchings in sparse $d$-regular \emph{random} graphs, in the above proof systems, with high probability requires proofs with degree $Ω(n/\log n)$. We extend their result by showing the same lower bound holds for \emph{all} $d$-regul…

The $3$-sparsity of $X^n-1$ over finite fields

The $3$-sparsity of $X^n-1$ over finite fields
Let $q$ be a prime power and $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field with $q$ elements. For a positive integer $n$, the binomial $f_n(X):= X^n-1\in\mathbb{F}_q[X]$ is called $3$-sparse over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if each irreducible factor of $f_n(X)$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is either a binomial or a trinomial. In 2021, Oliveira and Reis characterized all positive integers $n$ for which $f_n(X)$ is $3$-sparse over $\mathbb{F}_q$ when $q = 2$ and $q = 4$, and posed the open problem of whether, for any given $q$, th…

Invariants of twisted current algebras and related Poisson-commutative subalgebras
Let q be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $θ$ an automorphism of q of order m. We extend $θ$ to an automorphism of the loop algebra of q and consider the fixed-point subalgebra $q[t,t^{-1}]^θ$. Using a splitting of $q[t,t^{-1}]^θ$, we construct $θ$-twisted Poisson-commutative versions of the Feigin--Frenkel centre and the universal Gaudin subalgebra introduced by Ilin and Rybnikov in 2021.

👋 Hello! I’m Łukasz. Thirty-something, living in Warsaw, Poland. On fedi since 2021 or so. Right now, I'm merging my two accounts into one and giving this profile a fresh new start.
I live a few parallel lives.
Most of the time I’m a web developer. I work with TypeScript, React and all that jazz. But I still enjoy static site generators and good ol’ HTML/CSS.
In another life, I’m a documentary photographer and photojournalist. I’m interested in activism, art and culture, politics, and pretty much anything interesting happening on city streets. A big part of my photography journey involves documenting protests and demonstrations in Poland, especially those related to human rights and social issues. I’m also drawn to street art, particularly when it carries strong messages.
I occasionally blog and translate. Many years ago I wrote two books about WordPress. However, these days I’m more likely to go outside and touch grass than spend even more time in front of a screen.
Outside of that, expect me to post about mental health and politics. I promise to use CWs when appropriate.
I post in both English and Polish, depending on the topic.
Aaaand that’s it. Nice to meet you! ☺️

The challenge of finding compromises between agent proposals is fundamental to AI subfields such as argumentation, mediation, and negotiation. Building on this tradition, Elkind et al.

A crucial step in this process involves identifying compromise proposals around which agent coalitions can unite. How to effectively f…

Good Morning #Canada
There is a little known reporting tool on the ##StatsCan website called Canada’s Quality of Life Hub. First proposed in 2021, and launched in 2023, it is a framework that gathers data and evidence to inform priority setting and guide decision-making in various policy areas, including the budgetary process. The Framework comprises five domains –prosperity, health, environment, society, and good governance – and two cross-cutting lenses: fairness and inclusion, and sustainability and resilience. Not enough Canadians have heard of it, and I suspect very few government policies are implemented before analyzing the impact on quality of life measurement by this tool. On a positive note, #StatsCan is looking for feedback on how to improve the hub.
