PandasBench: A Benchmark for the Pandas API
The Pandas API has been central to the success of pandas and its alternatives. Despite its importance, there is no benchmark for it, and we argue that we cannot repurpose existing benchmarks (from other domains) for the Pandas API. In this paper, we introduce requirements that are necessary for a Pandas API enchmark, and present the first benchmark that fulfills them: PandasBench. We argue that it should evaluate the real-world coverage of a technique. Yet, real-world coverage is not sufficie…

#PhantastikPrompts 4.07.25: Plots, die nur funktionieren, weil alle d*** sind? Discuss.
Das wird ein Blogpost. Nicht nur, weil ich sehr viele Gedanken dazu habe, sondern auch, weil ein Blogpost sich eher anfühlt wie ein Kurzvortrag. Und das ist, was ich tun möchte. Ich möchte einen Vortrag zum Thema halten, aber ich möchte zumindest einen Teil dessen, was ich hier jetzt aufschre…

Trump's 'scum' attack gave awful signal of what's coming
Donald Trump opened Memorial Day in the most disgusting way possible, not by praising our fallen heroes but by attacking Democrats. He wrote on his Nazi-infested social media site on Monday morning:“Happy Memorial Day to all, including the scum that spent the last four years trying to destroy our co...

Masses of hidden-charm pentaquark states with $J^P = \frac{3}{2}^-$
Within the heavy pentaquark chiral perturbation theory, we calculate the chiral corrections for $J^P=\frac{3}{2}^-$ octet hidden-charm pentaquark masses up to next-to-leading order. Taking the LHCb-reported $P_ψ^N(4440)$ and $P_{ψs}^Λ(4459)$ (with $J^P=\frac{3}{2}^-$) as inputs, we predict the other two octet hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_{ψs}^Σ(4483)$ and $P_{ψss}^{N}(4490)$ with $J^P=\frac{3}{2}^-$. The results provide theoretical guidance for the further search of $P_{ψs}^Σ$ and …

Close points on a modular hyperbola
In this paper, we continue the study of small squares containing at least two points on a modular hyperbola $x y \equiv c \pmod{p}$. We deduce a lower bound for its side length. We also investigate what happens if the ``distances" between two such points are special type of numbers like prime numbers, squarefree numbers or smooth numbers as well as more general multiplicatively closed sets or almost dense sets.

New components of Hilbert schemes of points and 2-step ideals
This paper presents new examples of elementary and non-elementary irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme of points and its nested variants. The results are achieved via a careful analysis of the deformations of a class of finite colength ideals that are introduced in this paper and referred to as 2-step ideals. The most notable reducibility results pertain to the 4-nested Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth surface, the reducibility of $\text{Hilb}^{3,7}\mathbb{A}^4$, and a method to det…
