We desperately need to figure out how to flip this: how to lift up the creators of wonderful things, instead of rewarding whoever can acquire power over their creations.
I don’t think we know how to do this. There’s a vast spectrum of schemes for fixing this, ranging from capitalist versions of “intellectual property” to Marxist “just end capitalism” notions to various versions of “easy, society should just be different.” I find them all lacking, both in theory and in practice. This is a problem that’s existed for millennia, not decades, and I’m not convinced we have a clear solution.

On the Muić conjecture--the irreducibility of the big theta lift
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. We study theta correspondence for (complex) representations of symplectic--even orthogonal dual reductive pairs over $F;$ more specifically, the big theta lifts. We prove that, starting from a discrete series representation $π$ of a symplectic (even orthogonal group) over $F,$ its big theta lift $Θ(π)$ (as a representation of an even orthogonal (symplectic) group) if non-zero, is an irreducible representation, thus proving a co…

IECZ-III: Hardcore Condensation Lift with Size-Aware Invariants
This paper develops a compact, size-aware blueprint for transferring structure through gadget lifts. Two low-order invariants -- cumulative mod-$q$ Fourier mass up to degree $k$ and noise stability $\mathrm{Stab}_ρ$ -- are treated as a reusable "profile" tied to the gadget's affine interface. Under coordinate permutations ($Δ=1$) the profile is preserved exactly; under bounded fan-in the degree budget relaxes by at most $+Δk$ (i.e., $k \mapsto k + Δk$), with all overheads tracked explicitly…

B-RNS-GSS formalism and $L_{\infty}$-actions
Pure spinor formalism and RNS formalism are related by a chain of equivalences constructed by introducing and integrating-out BRST quartets. This is known as B-RNS-GSS formalism. One of the steps can be understood as adding auxiliary fields to lift a strong homotopy action of the SUSY Lie superalgebra in the large Hilbert space to a strict action. We develop a general prescription for this ``strictification'' procedure, which can be applied for any strong homotopy action of a Lie superalgebra. …

During loading and unloading steps, energy is consumed when cranes lift containers, while energy is often wasted when cranes drop containers.

Wild Stacky Curves and Rings of Mod p Modular Forms
We extend work of Voight and the second author to compute the log canonical ring of a wild stacky curve over a field of characteristic $p > 0$, which allows us to compute rings of mod $p$ modular forms of level $Γ_{0}(N)$. Our approach also reveals that in characteristics $2$ and $3$, there are infinitely many levels $N$ for which there are weight $2$ modular forms of level $Γ_{0}(N)$ that do not lift to characteristic $0$.

On divisibility of Hecke eigenvalues of Ikeda lifts
In this article, we estimate the density of the set of primes $p$ such that the $p$-th Hecke eigenvalue of an Ikeda lift is divisible by a fixed positive integer. One of the main ingredients involves the study of abelian subfields of fixed fields of the kernel of Galois representations attached to elliptic Hecke eigenforms. Further, we study the distribution of Fourier coefficients of elliptic Hecke eigenforms in arithmetic progressions.

Lifted Heston Model: Efficient Monte Carlo Simulation with Large Time Steps
The lifted Heston model is a stochastic volatility model emerging as a Markovian lift of the rough Heston model and the class of rough volatility processes. The model encodes the path dependency of volatility on a set of N square-root state processes driven by a common stochastic factor. While the system is Markovian, simulation schemes such as the Euler scheme exist, but require a small-step, multidimensional simulation of the state processes and are therefore numerically challenging.

The Stäckel lift extends the geometric framework underlying both the Riemannian and the Lorentzian-type classical Eisenhart lifts and is intimately related with Haantjes geometry. In particular, we establish that Hamiltonian systems constructed through Stäckel lifts are naturally endowed with a symplectic-Haantjes structure. We also show that explici…

Hodge-filtered derived de Rham cohomology of a ring $R$ can be described (up to completion and shift) as the graded pieces of the even filtration on $\mathrm{HC}^-(R)$. In this paper we show a deformation of this result: If $R$ admits a spherical $\mathbb{E}_2$-lift, then the graded pieces of the even filtration on $\mathrm{TC}^-(\mathrm{ku}\otimes\mathbb{S}_R/\mathrm{ku})$ form a certain filtration on the $q$-de Rham cohomology of $R$, which $q$-deforms the Hodge filtration.

announced on Thursday night he will run for governor of California.
“This great state needs a fighter and a protector, someone who will bring prices down, lift wages up,” Swalwell said.
“So I came here tonight, Jimmy to tell you and your audience that I’m running to be the next governor of California.”
Swalwell’s announcement comes shortly after…

I have been an “end Canada’s connection to the Monarchy”* guy for awhile now. I heard Canadian constitutional expert Phillipe Lagasse say once that it would be a very big lift for Canada to do so because of the requirement to get all provinces to agree on a constitutional amendment, etc etc. In his opinion, the most likely way for it to happen, then, would be for the UK population to end the Royal family’s power themselves.
Seems that is starting to become more likely.
*I avoid using the term Republican because I don’t want to be confused with any notion of advocating for anything like the USA. A Canadian republic can look and function exactly the same as it does today while ending the royal head of state. Bermuda being the most recent example.

Hey Generous Folks -- I wanted to put a message up for 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. #16DaysAgainstGBV #16Days
Rather than an ask for donations, I want to encourage you to find your local spaces in your own community that help women and people of all genders who are fleeing gender based violence or intimate partner violence.
Maybe *you* can raise a few dollars, volunteer at a local space, or help out in other ways. Maybe you've never done that. It might seem scary! I guarantee you, you'll love it. Whether you raise $50 or $500, or nothing at all, by becoming part of it, you'll make a difference
I'm signing up, as I have for a few years now, for another year at Coldest Night of the Year (#IntimatePartnerViolence #Canada #CanPoli #CdnPoli

Given the chance, I think her words could resonate in a Provincial election against both the David Eby #BCNDP and the Rustad #BCConservatives (and whatever other parties happen to pop into existence).
It was nice to see a leader actually genuinely congratulate and lift up her rivals in the contest. A rarity these days in too many party leadership races!
Key lines from her speech:
"take on this province's billionaires, largest corporations, and big oil... who take far more than they give.
"democracy is in retreat around the globe, but I am encouraged to see young people in BC fighting back.”
"the BC Green Party has solutions”
"the BC NDP.. are making decisions based on scarcity and fear”
"David Eby... rolling out the red carpet for Donald Trump's inner circle of oligarchs to buy and control even more of our province”.
"The NDP's big idea… to double down on raw resource exports.... no manufacturing, no innovation, no vision for a future beyond more foreign billionaires ripping and shipping our resources while families wait for the wealth to trickle down.”
“while workers wait for fair wages and homes we can afford, the BC NDP doubles down on MAGA backed fossil fuel projects, ignores the need to obtain consent, and refuses to care for our community members”
”The horrors that we are witnessing now are the death rattle of the old world.”
"it is up to us force a new world through”
"We can build a plan to take back the public wealth that has been looted with real taxation on the ultra wealthy”
"Build on our massive advantage of renewable energy… create thousands of jobs”
"will reclaim BC's economy for working people… together we can build a resilient thriving province that respects indigenous sovereignty and our planetary boundaries.”
“we are worthy of better, and worthy of hope. When we learn to believe that again, we can win.”
