Really? Clang 18.1 requires template args to use alias templates? 🤔
I mean, a common reason for aliases is to make shortcuts with pre-filled choices for selected class template parameters. 😕
PS: This is fixed in Clang trunk, but the issue feels too basic. GCC 10.1 had this working in *2020*.
I'm grateful to FOSS, but it's frustrating that I switch to Clang from GCC to dodge a GCC issue, only to have a different issue in Clang. And I really can't use trunk. 🥹

s-stability for W^{s,n/s}-harmonic maps in homotopy groups
We study $s$-dependence for minimizing $W^{s,n/s}$-harmonic maps $u\colon \mathbb{S}^n \to \mathbb{S}^\ell$ in homotopy classes. Sacks--Uhlenbeck theory shows that, for each $s$, minimizers exist in a generating subset of $π_{n}(\mathbb{S}^\ell)$. We show that this generating subset can be chosen locally constant in $s$. We also show that as $s$ varies the minimal $W^{s,n/s}$-energy in each homotopy class changes continuously. In particular, we provide progress to a question raised by Mironesc…

We consider numbers of the form $S_β(\boldsymbol{u}):=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{u_n}{β^n}$, where $\boldsymbol{u}=\langle u_n \rangle_{n=0}^\infty$ is an infinite word over a finite alphabet and $β\in \mathbb{C}$ satisfies $|β|>1$. Our main contribution is to present a combinatorial criterion on $\boldsymbol u$, called echoing, that implies that $S_β(\boldsymbol{u})$ is transcendental whenever $β$ is algebraic.
