Alexandrov estimates for polynomial operators by determinant majorization
We obtain estimates on the supremum, infimum and oscillation of solutions for a wide class of inhomogeneous fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Euclidean domains where the differential operator is an I-central Garding-Dirichlet operator in the sense of Harvey-Lawson (2024). The argument combines two recent results: an Alexandrov estimate of Payne-Redaelli (2025) for locally semiconvex functions based on the area formula and a determinant majorization estimate of Harvey-Lawson (2024).

On Structured State-Space Duality
Structured State-Space Duality (SSD) [Dao & Gu, ICML 2024] is an equivalence between a simple Structured State-Space Model (SSM) and a masked attention mechanism. In particular, a state-space model with a scalar-times-identity state matrix is equivalent to a masked self-attention with a $1$-semiseparable causal mask. Consequently, the same sequence transformation (model) has two algorithmic realizations: as a linear-time $O(T)$ recurrence or as a quadratic-time $O(T^2)$ attention. In this note,…

On generalized disc-polygons in plane convex bodies with a higher degree of smoothness
We prove power series expansions for the expectations of the number of vertices and missed area of random $L$-convex polygons in planar convex bodies with sufficiently smooth boundaries. Random $L$-convex polygons arise as the intersection of all translates of a fixed convex set $L$ that contain i.i.d. uniform random points from a suitable plane convex body $K$. Our results extend the asymptotic formulas proved in Fodor, Papvári and Vígh (2020) and Fodor and Montenegro (2024), and have conseq…

Simultaneous Rational Function Codes: Improved Analysis Beyond Half the Minimum Distance with Multiplicities and Poles

Simultaneous Rational Function Codes: Improved Analysis Beyond Half the Minimum Distance with Multiplicities and Poles
In this paper, we extend the work of Abbondati et al. (2024) on decoding simultaneous rational function codes by addressing two important scenarios: multiplicities and poles (zeros of denominators). First, we generalize previous results to rational codes with multiplicities by considering evaluations with multi-precision. Then, using the hybrid model from Guerrini et al. (2023), we extend our approach to vectors of rational functions that may present poles. Our contributions include: a rigorous…

Implementation and Basis Construction for Smooth Finite Element Spaces
The construction of $C^m$ conforming finite elements on simplicial meshes has recently advanced through the groundbreaking work of Hu, Lin, and Wu (Found. Comput. Math. 24, 2024). Their framework characterizes smoothness via moments of normal derivatives over subsimplices, leading to explicit degrees of freedom and unisolvence, unifying earlier constructions. However, the absence of explicit basis functions has left these spaces largely inaccessible for practical computation. In parallel, multi…

Upper bound coefficient for convolution structure associated to Hartley--Bessel transform
This paper is devoted to the study of a convolution structure denoted by $*_α$, which is defined via the Hartley--Bessel transform. This concept was introduced in a recent work by F. Bouzeffour [\emph{J. Pseudo-Differ. Oper. Appl.}, 2024;15, Article 42]. We establish an analog of the Hausdorff--Young inequality for the Hartley--Bessel transform and convolution operator $*_α$. This leads to the convolution $*_α$ being uniformly bounded on the dual space. Moreover, in some special cases, our r…
