Property B: A Baumgartner-style Property that Applies to Preservation of $\aleph_1$ and $\aleph_2$ under Iterations with Supports of Size $\aleph_1$
We prove a theorem on iterated forcing that can be used for preservation of $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_1$ in iterations with supports of size $\aleph_1$ of forcings that have amalgamation properties similar to those present in the perfect set forcing. The work is modelled after Baumgartner's Axiom A and his proof that iterations with countable support of the same preserve $\aleph_1$. In honour of James E. Baumgartner, the property introduced here is called Property B$(κ)$. The known additional dif…

How to Beat Nakamoto in the Race
This paper studies proof-of-work Nakamoto consensus under bounded network delays, settling two long-standing questions in blockchain security: How can an adversary most effectively attack block safety under a given block confirmation latency? And what is the resulting probability of safety violation? A Markov decision process (MDP) framework is introduced to precise characterize the system state (including the tree and timings of all blocks mined), the adversary's potential actions, and the sta…

Counting $2\times 2$ matrices with fixed determinant and bounded coefficients
Recent work by M. Afifurrahman established the first asymptotic estimates with error terms for the number of $2\times 2$ matrices with fixed non-zero determinant $n\in\mathbb{N}$, and with coefficients bounded in absolute value by $X$. In this paper we present a new proof of this result, which also gives an improved error term as $X\rightarrow\infty$. Similar to Afifurrahman's result, our error term is uniform in both $n$ and $X$, and our estimates are significant for $X$ as small as $n^{1/2+δ…

On the quadratic complexity of subsets of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ of bounded $\mathrm{VC_{2}}$-dimension
In prior work, we showed that subsets of $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{n}$ of $\mathrm{VC_{2}}$-dimension at most $k$ are well approximated by a union of atoms of a quadratic factor of complexity $(\ell,q)$, where the complexity $\ell$ of the linear part and the complexity $q$ of the quadratic part are both bounded in terms of $k$, $p$, and the desired level of approximation $μ$. A key tool in the proof of this result was an arithmetic regularity lemma for the Gowers $U^3$-norm by Green and Tao, which resu…

Green's functions for magnetic Dirac operators and bulk-edge correspondence
We study the resolvent kernel (Green's function) of magnetic Dirac operators on a half-plane with boundary conditions interpolating between infinite mass and zigzag cases, excluding the latter. We show that these kernels have all the required properties so that the proof of bulk-edge correspondence from the infinite mass case shown recently can be repeated ad litteram. The zigzag case exhibits qualitatively different behavior and will be addressed in future work.

Besides providing a new proof of a formula derived in \cite{mft,qc}, which is the basis of the equivalence, we show that equivalent quasistatic transformations can be distinguished in finite terms, by the renormalized work introduced in \cite{45,46,mft,qc}.

Our proof strategy points out that the emergence of new phenomena in inf…

Algorithmic Perspective on Toda's Theorem
Toda's Theorem is a fundamental result in computational complexity theory, whose proof relies on a reduction from a QBF problem with a constant number of quantifiers to a model counting problem. While this reduction, henceforth called Toda's reduction, is of a purely theoretical nature, the recent progress of model counting tools raises the question of whether the reduction can be utilized to an efficient algorithm for solving QBF. In this work, we address this question by looking at Toda's red…

Computing the gravitational effective action provides a direct route to charting the landscape of admissible black hole spacetimes and their alternatives, which we will collectively call "gravitationally localized objects" (GLOBs).

Focusing on the Einstein-Weyl truncation, we identify the unique ultraviolet-complete trajectory emanating from the asymptotically safe fixed point and use…

Derivatives of padded Schubert polynomials through pipe dreams
In recent work, Hamaker, Pechenik, Speyer, and Weigandt showed that a certain differential operator $\nabla$ expands positively in the basis of Schubert polynomials. For $π$ a dominant permutation, Gaetz and Tung showed an analogous positivity result holds for a dual differential operator $Δ$ acting on $π$-padded Schubert polynomials. In this paper, we provide a new proof of the result of Gaetz and Tung using the combinatorics of pipe dreams.

Mirroring recent successful work applying SDFs to represent 3D geometry, we present a proof of concept that this representation of proteins could be u…

$C^1$ perturbations of a continuum of critical points
Given a real valued function having a nondegenerate compact manifold of critical points, some of these points survive under small $C^2$ perturbations. This is a well-known result in critical point theory. In 1986 Weinstein obtained the analogous conclusions when the perturbation is only $C^2$ and the ambient space is a finite dimensional manifold. In this work we present a complete proof for $C^1$ perturbations in infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces.

Short Proof: Exact Solution to the Finite Frobenius Coin Problem
The Frobenius Coin Problem is a classic question in mathematics: given coins of specified denominations, what is the largest amount that cannot be formed using only those coins? This brief work covers a variation of such question, posing a limit on the number of coins available for each denomination. Thus, the new problem becomes finding the count of distinct values that can be represented, and those that cannot, within the finite set of integers ranging from zero to the sum of all coins. We re…

The classification of quasi-elliptic fibrations and unexpected plane cubics in characteristics 2 and 3
In this paper, we categorize all isomorphism classes of quasi-elliptic surfaces over a field $k$ of characteristic 2 or 3. For every quasi-elliptic surface $X$, we classify all possible sequences of blow-downs from $X$ to the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2_k$. We then use these categorizations to identify all unexpected plane cubic curves in characteristic 2 and present a proof of the lack of unexpected cubics in characteristic 3.

Rollups have become the de facto scalability solution for Ethereum, securing more than $55B in assets. They achieve scale by executing transactions on a Layer 2 ledger, while periodically posting data and finalizing state on the Layer 1, either optimistically or via validity proofs. Their fees must simultaneously reflect the pricing of three resources: L2 costs (e.g., execution), L1 DA, and underlying L1 gas costs for batch settlement and proof verification. In this work, we identify critical m…

A Gaussian integral formula for the Hermite polynomials: Combinatorics, Asymptotics and Applications
The Hermite polynomials are ubiquitous but can be difficult to work with due to their unwieldy definition in terms of derivatives. To remedy this, we showcase an underappreciated Gaussian integral formula for the Hermite polynomials, which is especially useful for generalizing to multivariable Hermite polynomials. Taking this as our definition, we prove many useful consequences, including: 1. Combinatorial interpretations for the Hermite polynomials, including a proof of orthogonality. 2. A mor…

Combining relatively hyperbolic groups over a complex of groups

The proof extends the work of Dahmani and Martin by constructing a model for the Bowditch boundary of $π_1(G(\mathcal{Y}))$. We prove the model is a compact metrizable space on which $G$ acts as a geo…

We report on our tool, Pulse Infinite, that uses proof techniques to show non-termination (divergence) in large programs. Pulse Infinite works compositionally and under-approximately: the former supports scale, and the latter ensures soundness for proving divergence. Prior work focused on small benchmarks in the tens or hundreds of lines of code (LoC), and scale limits their practicality: a single company may have tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of LoC or more. We report on apply…

2D CFT and efficient Bethe ansatz for exactly solvable Richardson-Gaudin models
This work inaugurates a series of complementary studies on Richardson-Gaudin integrable models. We begin by reviewing the foundations of classical and quantum integrability, recalling the algebraic Bethe ansatz solution of the Richardson (reduced BCS) and Gaudin (central spin) models, and presenting a proof of their integrability based on the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations and their generalizations to perturbed affine conformal blocks. Building on this foundation, we then describe an alternat…

There and Back Again: Revisiting the Failure of Concatenation in Mittag-Leffler Functions
The function $t \mapsto E_α(λt^α)$ is widely regarded as the fractional analogue of the exponential function, yet its algebraic properties remain poorly understood. In particular, standard references lack a rigorous proof of the failure of the semigroup property. In this work, we fill this gap by providing an analytical proof that the semigroup property holds if and only if either $α= 1$ or $λ= 0$. Our result establishes a precise criterion for when Mittag-Leffler dynamics are compatible w…

Composable Quantum Fault-Tolerance
Proving threshold theorems for fault-tolerant quantum computation is a burdensome endeavor with many moving parts that come together in relatively formulaic but lengthy ways. It is difficult and rare to combine elements from multiple papers into a single formal threshold proof, due to the use of different measures of fault-tolerance. In this work, we introduce composable fault-tolerance, a framework that decouples the probabilistic analysis of the noise distribution from the combinatorial analy…

The Hiraga-Ichino-Ikeda conjecture on formal degrees for classical groups
We prove a conjecture of Hiraga-Ichino-Ikeda relating formal degrees of square-integrable representations to adjoint gamma factors for symplectic and even orthogonal groups over characteristic zero non-Archimedean local fields. The proof is based on the twisted endoscopic characterization of the local Langlands correspondence for such groups and extends an approach already appearing in the original paper of Hiraga-Ichino-Ikeda itself inspired from earlier work of Shahidi. Namely, the argument c…

This report presents some technical details on the authentication process of a lightweight key exchange protocol, paying attention on how Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks could undermine its security, e.g., under the scope of lawful interception and its risk to facilitate mass surveillance. We focus only on some technical aspects associated to the attack scenario. Perspectives for future work are also discussed.

Verifying Sampling Algorithms via Distributional Invariants
This paper develops a verification framework aimed at establishing the correctness of discrete sampling algorithms. We do so by considering probabilistic programs as distribution transformers. Inspired by recent work on distributional verification of Markov models, we introduce the notion of (inductive) distributional loop invariants for discrete probabilistic programs. These invariants are embedded in a Hoare-like verification framework that includes proof rules for total and partial correctne…

The commutative algebra of congruence ideals and applications to number theory
In his proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, Wiles deployed a commutative algebra technique, namely a numerical criterion for detecting isomorphisms of rings. In our recent work we pick up on Wiles' work and generalize the numerical criterion to ``higher codimension''. A critical ingredient is a notion of congruence module in higher codimension: this has turned out to be a key definition whose utility extends beyond the role it plays in the numerical criterion. In this paper we trace the origin of so…

Voting-Based Semi-Parallel Proof-of-Work Protocol
Parallel Proof-of-Work (PoW) protocols are suggested to improve the safety guarantees, transaction throughput and confirmation latencies of Nakamoto consensus. In this work, we first consider the existing parallel PoW protocols and develop hard-coded incentive attack structures. Our theoretical results and simulations show that the existing parallel PoW protocols are more vulnerable to incentive attacks than the Nakamoto consensus, e.g., attacks have smaller profitability threshold and they res…

Nonrational varieties with unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees
We show that there exists a $2$-dimensional family of smooth cubic threefolds admitting unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees. This together with Clemens--Griffiths' work solves the long standing open problem whether there exists a nonrational variety with unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees. Our proof uses a new approach, called the Noether--Cremona method, for determining the rationality of quotients of hypersurfaces.

Pose Estimation of a Thruster-Driven Bioinspired Multi-Link Robot
This work demonstrates pose (position and shape) estimation for a free-floating, bioinspired multi-link robot with unactuated joints, link-mounted thrusters for control, and a single gyroscope per link, resulting in an underactuated, minimally sensed platform. Through a proof-of-concept hardware experiment and offline Kalman filter analysis, we show that the robot's pose can be reliably estimated. State estimation is performed using an unscented Kalman filter augmented with Gaussian process res…

Unconditional energy dissipation of Strang splitting for the matrix-valued Allen-Cahn equation
The energy dissipation property of the Strang splitting method was first demonstrated for the matrix-valued Allen-Cahn (MAC) equation under restrictive time-step constraints [J. Comput. Phys. 454, 110985, 2022]. In this work, we eliminate this limitation through a refined stability analysis framework, rigorously proving that the Strang splitting method preserves the energy dissipation law unconditionally for arbitrary time steps. The refined proof hinges on a precise estimation of the double-we…

Entire Large Solutions for Competitive Semilinear Elliptic Systems with General Nonlinearities Satisfying Keller--Osserman Conditions
We generalize a theorem of Lair concerning the existence of positive entire large solutions to competitive semilinear elliptic systems. While Lair's original result \cite{Lair2025} was established for power-type nonlinearities, our work extends the theory to a broad class of general nonlinearities satisfying a Keller--Osserman-type growth condition. The proof follows the same conceptual framework monotone iteration to construct global positive solutions, reduction to a scalar inequality for the…

Eigenvalues of Universal Covers and the Matching Polynomial
In this work, we prove that the universal and maximal abelian covers of a finite multi-graph have the same eigenvalues. This strengthens a recent result of Li, Magee, Sabri, and Thomas (2025), and answers one of their questions. Our proof relies on the theory of the matching polynomial of a graph, and we further prove new results about its Gallai--Edmonds decomposition.

As an application of our main result, we establish Deligne's conjecture for a class of CM-automorphic motives, which we construct in this paper. Our proof uses the results of our recent joint work with Raghuram in combination with the Ichino--Ikeda--Neal-Harris (II…

A novel approach through spherical functions in the characterization of invariant polynomials
Given a compact subgroup K of the orthogonal group acting on the Euclidean space Rn, Gerald Schwarz proved that every smooth K-invariant function on Rn can be expressed as a smooth function of a generating set of $K$-invariant polynomials on n variables. The goal of this work is to provide an alternative and more straightforward proof of this result, based on Gelfand theory, with a particular focus on spherical functions.

Quadratic cone programs are rapidly becoming the standard canonical form for convex optimization problems. In this paper we address the question of differentiating the solution map for such problems, generalizing previous work for linear cone programs. We follow a similar path, using the implicit function theorem applied to the optimality conditions for a homogenous primal-dual embedding. Along with our proof of differentiability, we present methods for efficiently evaluating the derivative ope…

A Continuum Beck-type Theorem for Hyperplanes
We prove a sharp continuum Beck-type theorem for hyperplanes. Our work is inspired by foundational work of Beck on the discrete problem, as well as refinements due to Do and Lund. The inductive proof uses recent breakthrough results in projection theory by Orponen--Shmerkin--Wang and Ren, who proved continuum Beck-type theorems for lines in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^n$.

Finding Partite Hypergraphs Efficiently
We provide a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm that, for a given $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ with $n$ vertices and edge density $d$, finds a complete $k$-partite subgraph of $H$ with parts of size at least ${c(d, k)(\log n)^{1/(k-1)}}$. This generalizes work by Mubayi and Turán on bipartite graphs. The value we obtain for the part size matches the order of magnitude guaranteed by the non-constructive proof due to Erdős and is tight up to a constant factor.

We demonstrate that tools enable a strict expansion of the model's empirical and feasible support, breaking the capability ceiling of pure-text mo…

Almost a Complete Proof of the Generalized Erdős-Straus Conjecture: ${5}/{a} = {1}/{b} + {1}/{c} + {1}/{d}$
The generalized Erdős-Straus conjecture, proposed by Wacław Sierpiński in 1956, asks whether the Diophantine equation \[ \frac{5}{a} = \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} + \frac{1}{d} \] admits positive integer solutions $b,c,d \in \mathbb{N}$ for every integer $a \ge 2$. In this work we present explicit solutions for all integers $a \ge 2$. We begin with the simplest known cases where $a \equiv i \pmod{5}$ for $i \in \{0,2,3,4\}$, providing direct decompositions. The remaining open case, $a \equiv 1…

Single photon emission from lithographically-positioned engineered nanodiamonds for cryogenic applications
Nitrogen-vacancy centres in nanodiamonds (NDs) provide a promising resource for quantum photonic systems. However, developing a technology beyond proof-of-principle physics requires optimally engineering its component parts.

The structure enhances the photonic collection efficiency, enabling cryogenic characterisation despite the limited …

Combinatorial proof of a permuted basement Macdonald polynomial identity
A well-known and fundamental property of the Macdonald polynomials $P_λ(x;q,t)$ is their invariance under the transformation sending $(q,t)$ to $(q^{-1},t^{-1})$.

Their identity played a key role in the work of Bechtloff Weising and Orr linking partially symmetric Macdonald polynomials to parabolic flag Hilbert schemes. In this paper, w…
