On Pell numbers representable as product of two generalized Fibonacci numbers
A generalization of the well-known Fibonacci sequence is the $k$-Fibonacci sequence with some fixed integer $k\ge 2$. The first $k$ terms of this sequence are $0,0, \ldots, 1$, and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms. In this paper, we find all Pell numbers that can be written as a product of two $k$-Fibonacci numbers. The proof of our main theorem uses lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms, properties of continued fractions, and a variation of a result of Dujella a…

Probing the singularity at the holographic screen via $q$-holography
We study the emergence of $q$-deformed spacetime in a lower-dimensional gravitational system whose asymptotic region geometrizes the global symmetry of a $q$-deformed CFT. More precisely, we consider the 2d sinh dilaton gravity model, whose classical metric solutions exhibit a curvature singularity at the holographic boundary. Our aim is to probe this UV near-boundary regime by injecting a small probe into the bulk, and identifying the geometrical features it observes. At the level of the two-p…

Partition function of 2D Coulomb gases with radially symmetric potentials and a hard wall
The large $N$ asymptotic expansion of the partition function for the normal matrix model is predicted to have special features inherited from its interpretation as a two-dimensional Coulomb gas. However for the latter, it is most natural to include a hard wall at the boundary of the droplet. We probe how this affects the asymptotic expansion in the solvable case that the potential is radially symmetric and the droplet is a disk or an annulus. We allow too for the hard wall to be strictly inside…

Lawrow wirft Merz antirussische "Nazi-Parolen" vor
Moskaus Außenminister Sergej Lawrow hat Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz vorgeworfen, antirussische Losungen wie zu Nazi-Zeiten für eine Militarisierung Deutschlands zu nutzen. Es sei "völliger Unsinn", Russland als Gefahr zu bezeichnen, sagte Lawrow, dessen Land 2022 die Ukraine überfallen hatte, in der malaysischen Hauptstadt Kuala Lumpur. "Ich hoffe, dass jeder Politiker mit e…

It pretty much encapsulates everything I've seen in the United States for the last 20 years, the mentality of some of the people I deal with in course of playing music for a living, and in the organizations that I have to be a part of.

Rademacher learning rates for iterated random functions
Most existing literature on supervised machine learning assumes that the training dataset is drawn from an i.i.d. sample. However, many real-world problems exhibit temporal dependence and strong correlations between the marginal distributions of the data-generating process, suggesting that the i.i.d. assumption is often unrealistic. In such cases, models naturally include time-series processes with mixing properties, as well as irreducible and aperiodic ergodic Markov chains. Moreover, the lear…
