Values at non-positive integers of partially twisted multiple zeta-functions II
We study the values at non-positive integer points of multi-variable twisted multiple zeta-functions, whose each factor of the denominator is given by polynomials. The fully twisted case was already answered by de Crisenoy. On the partially twisted case, in one of our former article we studied the case when each factor of the denominator is given by linear forms or power-sum forms. In the present paper we treat the case of general polynomial denominators, and obtain explicit forms of the values…

Twisted Roe algebras and their $K$-theory
In this paper, we introduce a notion of twisted Roe algebra and a twisted coarse Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients. We will study the basic properties of twisted Roe algebras, including a coarse analogue of the imprimitivity theorem for metric spaces with a structure of coarse fibrations. We show that the twisted coarse Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients holds for a metric space with a coarse fibration structure when the base space and the fiber satisfy the twisted coarse Baum-Conn…

Anthropic tests AI running a real business with bizarre results
Anthropic tasked its Claude AI model with running a small business to test its real-world economic capabilities.

Watching 36 cars with active Advanced Driver Assistant Systems (#ADAS) being tested in real live situations is ... revealing. Huge differences in outcomes (crashes etc.) and paying more money does not guarantee a better outcome. Watch the video with English subtitles switched on, it's hilarious.

Strict comparison for twisted group C*-algebras
We prove that any reduced twisted group C*-algebra of a selfless group with the rapid decay property is selfless. As an application, we show that twisted group C*-algebras of acylindrically hyperbolic groups (possibly with nontrivial finite radical) and rapid decay are pure, and hence have strict comparison.

Orbital chiral lasing in twisted bilayer metasurfaces
Chirality is a fundamental concept in physics that underpins various phenomena in nonlinear optics, quantum physics, and topological photonics. Although the spin of a photon naturally brings chirality, orbital angular momentum can also become chirally active in the structures with a broken mirror symmetry. Here, we observe orbital chiral lasing from a twisted bilayer photonic structure leveraging its inherent structural chirality. Specifically, we design and fabricate a Moire-type optical struc…

After 70 years, twisted gothic thriller The Night of the Hunter remains as disturbing and beguiling as ever
In 1955, director Charles Laughton crafted one of the darkest, strangest fairytales ever to come out of Hollywood.
