In other news, I've been spending a lot of time lately thinking about Emmy Noether and especially her two symmetry theorems, which can be given significant credit for shaping fundamental physics in the 20th century. They are astonishing: She PROVED that if a physical law has a symmetry (in the sense of being independent of say, the time) then there is a corresponding conservation law (for time, energy). Zowie. Higgs bosons flow from that profundity.

So, würden jetzt bitte alle, die mir bisher nicht zugestimmt haben, vor mir niederknien und sich entschuldigen? Hier kommt genau meine Position von einem Rechtsextremismusforscher. Ich nehme Entschuldigungen noch bis heute 12:00 entgegen.
„David Begrich, Rechtsextremismusexperte aus Sachsen-Anhalt, sagte der taz: „Was mich am meisten schockiert, ist, dass es Leute gibt, die den Schuss noch immer nicht gehört haben oder nun mit den üblichen Reaktionsmustern um die Ecke kommen, wie: Baut die Mauer wieder auf.“ Das sei eine Ostdeutschlandprojektion, die das Problem der extremen Rechten in einen bestimmten Postleitzahlenbereich entsorge, so Begrich: „Das ist eine Entlastungs- und Distinktionsstrategie, die den Blick auf schmerzhafte Wahrheiten verstellt.“
Verfassungsschutz schreckt Wähler nicht ab
Die extreme Rechte erprobe Strategien im Osten, die sie letztlich auch im Westen anwenden werde. Und die westdeutschen Mechanismen zur Zurückdrängung der AfD seien gescheitert: Der Verfassungsschutz schrecke nicht ab, ebenso wenig die Skandalisierung.
Begrich benennt fünf konkrete Lehren, die daraus folgen müssen: Die AfD und ihre politische Kommunikation dürften nicht länger den politischen Diskurs dominieren, demokratische Kräfte müssten sich radikal abgrenzen. Der „Fatalismus des verlorenen Ostens“ müsse aufgegeben werden, stattdessen Sichtbarkeit für die unterschiedlichen Aspekte der Zivilgesellschaft im Osten hergestellt werden. Demokratisches Engagement im Osten funktioniere über die Klein- und Mittelstädte und müsse von den ländlichen Räumen, Einzelpersonen und ihren Netzwerken her gedacht werden.
Weiter müsse man die politische Bildung stärken, aber diese müsse auf dem Horizont ostdeutscher Erfahrungen und Demokratiegeschichte fokussieren. „Die Grundgesetzparty in Berlin hilft dabei nicht weiter, solange die ostdeutsche Demokratiegeschichte irgendwo in der Besenkammer verschlossen ist“, so Begrich.
Mit das Wichtigste sei nun aber, konkret Solidarität zu organisieren, sagt er: „Seit 1990 haben 1,3 Millionen Menschen Ostdeutschland in Richtung Westen verlassen, die dort Zivilgesellschaft, Demokratie und Wirtschaftswachstum stärken. Deren Solidarität brauchen wir jetzt.““

Das ist genau das, was ich immer predige.
Die taz scheint es verstanden zu haben, wie auch andere Artikel zeigen. Danke taz!

Realized last night - not sure why it took so long - that the Kamiokande-style neutrino detector is based on the same idea as the gamma-ray telescope I sketched out as a grad student, intended for launch on Compton but canceled by Reagan. Not taking credit for Kamiokande, the idea's not especially clever, but in the 1970s when I was a student it took some work to convince people it (timing the arrival of Cerenkov cones) could work. In the 80s it was easier.

Repetition Threshold for Binary Automatic Sequences
The critical exponent of an infinite word $\bf x$ is the supremum, over all finite nonempty factors $f$, of the exponent of $f$. In this note we show that for all integers $k\geq 2,$ there is a binary infinite $k$-automatic sequence with critical exponent $\leq 7/3$. The same conclusion holds for Fibonacci-automatic and Tribonacci-automatic sequences.

New bounds on a generalization of Tuza's conjecture

Let $τ^{(m)}(H)$ denote the minimum size of a set $S$ of $m$-sets of $V(H)$ such that every edge of $H$ contains some $m$-set from $S$. A conjecture by Aharoni and Zerbib, which generalizes a conjecture of Tuza on the size of minimum edge covers of triangles of a graph, states that for a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, $τ^{(k - 1)}(H)/ν^{(k …

Random matchings in linear hypergraphs
For a given hypergraph $H$ and a vertex $v\in V(H)$, consider a random matching $M$ chosen uniformly from the set of all matchings in $H.$ In $1995,$ Kahn conjectured that if $H$ is a $d$-regular linear $k$-uniform hypergraph, the probability that $M$ does not cover $v$ is $(1 + o_d(1))d^{-1/k}$ for all vertices $v\in V(H).$ This conjecture was proved for $k = 2$ by Kahn and Kim in $1998.$ In this paper, we disprove this conjecture for all $k \geq 3.$ For infinitely many values of $d,$ we con…

A note on the exact formulas for certain $2$-color partitions
Let $p\leq 23$ be a prime and $a_p(n)$ counts the number of partitions of $n$ where parts that are multiple of $p$ come up with $2$ colors. Using a result of Sussman, we derive the exact formula for $a_p(n)$ and obtain an asymptotic formula for $\log a_p(n)$. Our results partially extend the work of Mauth, who proved the asymptotic formula for $\log a_2(n)$ conjectured by Banerjee et al.

Constructions of Turán systems that are tight up to a multiplicative constant
For positive integers $n\ge s> r$, the Turán function $T(n,s,r)$ is the smallest size of an r-graph with n vertices such that every set of s vertices contains at least one edge. Also, define the Turán density $t(s,r)$ as the limit of $T(n,s,r)/ {n\choose r}$ as $n\to\infty$. The question of estimating these parameters received a lot of attention after it was first raised by Turán in 1941. A trivial lower bound is $t(s,r)\ge 1/{s\choose s-r}$. In the early 1990s, de Caen conjectured that $r\c…

This paper studies permutation statistics that count occurrences of patterns. Their expected values on a product of $t$ permutations chosen randomly from $Γ\subseteq S_{n}$, where $Γ$ is a union of conjugacy classes, are considered. Hultman has described a method for computing such an expected value, denoted $\mathbb{E}_Γ(s,t)$, of a statistic $s$, when $Γ$ is a union of conjugacy classes of $S_{n}$. The only prerequisite is that the mean of $s$ over the conjugacy classes is written as a li…

As an application, we construct infinitely many pairs of $A_α$-cospectral graphs.

Spanning trees and signless Laplacian spectral radius in graphs
Let $G$ be a connected graph and let $k$ be a positive integer. Let $T$ be a spanning tree of $G$. The leaf degree of a vertex $v\in V(T)$ is defined as the number of leaves adjacent to $v$ in $T$. The leaf degree of $T$ is the maximum leaf degree among all the vertices of $T$. Let $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of $G$ and $D(G)$ be the diagonal degree matrix of $G$. Let $Q(G)=D(G)+A(G)$ be the signless Laplacian matrix of $G$. The largest eigenvalue of $Q(G)$, denoted by $q(G)$, is called the …

Total Positivity of Quasi-Riordan Arrays
In this paper the total positivity of quasi-Riordan arrays is investigated with use of the sequence characterization of quasi-Riordan arrays. Due to the correlation between quasi-Riordan arrays and Riordan arrays, this study is an in-depth discussion of the total positivity of Riordan arrays.

Transitive regular $q$-analogs of graphs
In 1976, Delsarte introduced the notion of $q$-analogs of designs, and $q$-analogs of graphs were introduced recently by M. Braun et al. In this paper, we extend that study by giving a method for constructing transitive regular $q$-analogs of graphs. Further, we illustrate the method by giving some examples. Additionally, we introduced the notion of $q$-analogs of quasi-strongly regular graphs and give examples of transitive $q$-analogs of quasi-strongly regular graphs coming from spreads.

Majority Dynamics and Internal Partitions of Random Regular Graphs: Experimental Results
This paper focuses on Majority Dynamics in sparse graphs, in particular, as a tool to study internal cuts. It is known that, in Majority Dynamics on a finite graph, each vertex eventually either comes to a fixed state, or oscillates with period two. The empirical evidence acquired by simulations suggests that for random odd-regular graphs, approximately half of the vertices end up oscillating with high probability. We notice a local symmetry between oscillating and non-oscillating vertices, tha…

Edge Metric Dimension of Silicate Networks
Metric dimension is an essential parameter in graph theory that aids in addressing issues pertaining to information retrieval, localization, network design, and chemistry through the identification of the least possible number of elements necessary to identify the distances between vertices in a graph uniquely. A variant of metric dimension, called the edge metric dimension focuses on distinguishing the edges in a graph $G$, with a vertex subset. The minimum possible number of vertices in such …

Rational Delsarte designs and Galois fusions of association schemes
Delsarte theory, more specifically the study of codes and designs in association schemes, has proved invaluable in studying an increasing assortment of association schemes in recent years. Tools motivated by the study of error-correcting codes in the Hamming scheme and combinatorial $t$-designs in the Johnson scheme apply equally well in association schemes with irrational eigenvalues. We assume here that we have a commutative association scheme with irrational eigenvalues and wish to study its…

Constructions, bounds, and algorithms for peaceable queens
The peaceable queens problem asks to determine the maximum number $a(n)$ such that there is a placement of $a(n)$ white queens and $a(n)$ black queens on an $n \times n$ chessboard so that no queen can capture any queen of the opposite color. In this paper, we consider the peaceable queens problem and its variant on the toroidal board. For the toroidal board, we provide new upper and lower bounds. Somewhat surprisingly, our bounds show that there is a sharp contrast in behaviour between the o…

Stirling permutation codes. II
In the context of Stirling polynomials, Gessel and Stanley introduced the definition of Stirling permutation, which has attracted extensive attention over the past decades. Recently, we introduced Stirling permutation code and provided numerous equidistribution results as applications. The purpose of the present work is to further analyse Stirling permutation code. First, we derive an expansion formula expressing the joint distribution of the types A and B descent statistics over the hyperoctah…

Cokernels of the Euler restriction map of logarithmic derivation modules
There are two restriction maps of the logarithmic modules of plane arrangements in a three dimensional vector space. One is the Euler restriction and the other is the Ziegler restriction. The dimension of the cokernel of the Ziegler restriction map of logarithmic derivation modules has been well-studied for the freeness of hyperplane arrangements after Yoshinaga's celebrated criterion for freeness, which connects the second Betti number and the splitting type (exponents). However, though the Eu…

Partitioning the set of natural numbers into Mersenne trees and into arithmetic progressions; Natural Matrix and Linnik's constant
We partition a series of natural numbers into infinite number sequences. We consider two choices of partitioning: (a) a forest of unary trees with recurrence formula of Mersenne numbers, and (b) a set of arithmetic progressions with difference $2^k$. Every tree starts with an even number, and any even number starts a certain tree. In the partitioning into arithmetic progressions, each progression starts with a Mersenne number, and each Mersenne number is the beginning of a particular arithmetic…

The largest subgraph without a forbidden induced subgraph
We initiate the systematic study of the following Turán-type question. Suppose $Γ$ is a graph with $n$ vertices such that the edge density between any pair of subsets of vertices of size at least $t$ is at most $1 - c$, for some $t$ and $c > 0$. What is the largest number of edges in a subgraph $G \subseteq Γ$ which does not contain a fixed graph $H$ as an induced subgraph or, more generally, which belongs to a hereditary property $\mathcal{P}$? This provides a common generalization of two r…

The Magic Number Conjecture for the $m=2$ amplituhedron and Parke-Taylor identities
The amplituhedron $A_{n,k,m}$ is a geometric object introduced in the context of scattering amplitudes in $N=4$ super Yang Mills. It generalizes the positive Grassmannian (when $n=k+m$), cyclic polytopes (when $k=1$), and the bounded complex of the cyclic hyperplane arrangement (when $m=1$). Of substantial interest are the tilings of the amplituhedron, which are analogous to triangulations of a polytope. Karp, Williams and Zhang (2020) observed that the known tilings of $A_{n,k,2}$ have cardina…

Paired coalition in graphs
\noindent A paired coalition in a graph $G=(V,E)$ consists of two disjoint sets of vertices $V_1$ and $V_2$, neither of which is a paired dominating set but whose union $V_1 \cup V_2$ is a paired dominating set. A paired coalition partition (abbreviated $pc$-partition) in a graph $G$ is a vertex partition $π= \lbrace V_1,V_2,\dots ,V_k \rbrace$ such that each set $V_i$ of $π$ is not a paired dominating set but forms a paired coalition with another set $V_j \in π$. The paired coalition graph …

The dimension of the region of feasible tournament profiles
Erd\H os, Lovász and Spencer showed in the late 1970s that the dimension of the region of $k$-vertex graph profiles, i.e., the region of feasible densities of $k$-vertex graphs in large graphs, is equal to the number of non-trivial connected graphs with at most $k$ vertices. We determine the dimension of the region of $k$-vertex tournament profiles. Our result, which explores an interesting connection to Lyndon words, yields that the dimension is much larger than just the number of strongly co…

Cycle Partitions in Dense Regular Digraphs and Oriented Graphs
A conjecture of Jackson from 1981 states that every $d$-regular oriented graph on $n$ vertices with $n\leq 4d+1$ is Hamiltonian. We prove this conjecture for sufficiently large $n$. In fact we prove a more general result that for all $α>0$, there exists $n_0=n_0(α)$ such that every $d$-regular digraph on $n\geq n_0$ vertices with $d \geq αn $ can be covered by at most $n/(d+1)$ vertex-disjoint cycles, and moreover that if $G$ is an oriented graph, then at most $n/(2d+1)$ cycles suffice.
