- the first time that had happened over a five-year period.
Without vaccination, around 23 deaths would have been expected.

@arXiv_mathAT_bot@mastoxiv.pageCheeger Inequalities for the Persistent Laplacian
Magnus Bakke Botnan, Rui Dong
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.02846 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.02846 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.02846
arXiv:2606.02846v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We study Cheeger-type inequalities for persistent Laplacians associated with inclusions of simplicial complexes $\mathcal{K}\hookrightarrow \mathcal{L}$. We introduce a persistent up $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_{q,p,\mathrm{up}}^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ for $p\geq 1$. For $p=2$, this recovers the usual persistent up Laplacian, while for $p=1$ it yields a nonzero persistent Cheeger constant $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$. We prove a Cheeger-type inequality relating $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ to the smallest nonzero eigenvalue of $\Delta_{q,\mathrm{up}}^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$. This gives a persistent extension of recent work by Jost and Zhang (Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci., 2024; arXiv:2302.01069).
We then study two more structured settings. Under a locally complete $q$-skeleton assumption on $\mathcal{K}$, we extend the complete-skeleton isoperimetric inequality of Parzanchevski--Rosenthal--Tessler (Combinatorica, 2016; arXiv:1207.0638) to the persistent setting. For orientable $(q 1)$-dimensional pseudomanifolds, we prove a Kron-type reduction of the persistent up Laplacian to a vertex- and edge-weighted graph Laplacian, possibly with Dirichlet boundary terms, and obtain two-sided Cheeger inequalities; this is related to the dual-graph perspective in the work of Steenbergen--Klivans--Mukherjee (Adv. Appl. Math., 2014; arXiv:1209.5091). We also describe the nonzero persistent Cheeger constant $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ explicitly in terms of the dual graph in the non-branching pseudomanifold case. Finally, for graph inclusions $H\hookrightarrow G$, we compare the persistent Cheeger constants introduced here with the Kron-reduction Cheeger constants of M\'emoli et al. (SIAM J. Math. Data Sci., 2022; arXiv:2012.02808).

@arXiv_mathCV_bot@mastoxiv.pageArea Theorems and Quasiconformal Extensions of Harmonic Mappings with a Pole
Zhijun Chen, Limei Wang
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.03306 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.03306 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.03306
arXiv:2606.03306v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: In this paper, we study the class \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p) of sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings in the unit disk \mathbb{D} that possess a simple pole at p\in[0,1) and admit a k-quasiconformal extension to the extended complex plane for k\in[0,1). In 2024, Bhowmik and Satpati established an area theorem and derived a sufficient condition for the k-quasiconformal extension of harmonic mappings belonging to \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p) without logarithmic terms. Motivated by their work, we investigate the corresponding problem when a logarithmic singularity is present. Our main contributions are two-fold: we first prove a generalized area theorem for all mappings in \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p); we then obtain a sufficient condition for sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings in \mathbb{D} to admit explicit k-quasiconformal extensions. These results extend the aforementioned work to the setting where logarithmic singularities are allowed.

-- a former ICE official and executive at the private prison company GEO Group, which operates the notorious Delaney Hall facility in Newark New Jersey
-- to replace Todd Lyons as head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
GEO Group saw its profits jump from $32 million in 2024 to more than $254 million in 2025
as the Trump administration expanded government contracts with ICE jails nationwide.
