The Helmholtz equation $-\nabla\cdot (a\nabla u) - \omega^2 u = f$ is considered in an unbounded wave guide $\Omega := \mathbb{R} \times S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $S\subset \mathbb{R}^{d-1}$ a bounded domain. The coefficient a is strictly elliptic and either periodic in the unbounded direction $x_1 \in \mathbb{R}$ or periodic outside a compact subset; in the latter case, two different periodic media can be used in the two unbounded directions. For non-singular frequencies $\omega$, we show the existence of a solution u. While previous proofs of such results were based on analyticity arguments within operator theory, here, only energy methods are used.

We prove that, given $2< p<\infty$, the Fourier coefficients of functions in $L_2(\mathbb {T}, |t|^{1-2/p}\,{\rm d}t)$ belong to $\ell _p$, and that, given $1< p<2$, the Fourier series of sequences in $\ell _p$ belong to $L_2(\mathbb {T}, \vert {t}\vert ^{2/p-1}\,{\rm d}t)$. Then, we apply these results to the study of conditional Schauder bases and conditional almost greedy bases in Banach spaces. Specifically, we prove that, for every $1< p<\infty$ and every $0\le \alpha <1$, there is a Schauder basis of $\ell _p$ whose conditionality constants grow as $(m^{\alpha })_{m=1}^{\infty }$, and there is an almost greedy basis of $\ell _p$ whose conditionality constants grow as $((\log m)^{\alpha })_{m=2}^{\infty }$.

This corrigendum corrects a result in [1].

For X a smooth projective variety and $D=D_1+\dotsb +D_n$ a simple normal crossing divisor, we establish a precise cycle-level correspondence between the genus $0$ local Gromov–Witten theory of the bundle $\oplus _{i=1}^n \mathcal {O}_X(-D_i)$ and the maximal contact Gromov–Witten theory of the multiroot stack $X_{D,\vec r}$. The proof is an implementation of the rank-reduction strategy. We use this point of view to clarify the relationship between logarithmic and orbifold invariants.

We define slope subalgebras in the shuffle algebra associated to a (doubled) quiver, thus yielding a factorization of the universal R-matrix of the double of the shuffle algebra in question. We conjecture that this factorization matches the one defined by [1, 18, 32, 33, 34] using Nakajima quiver varieties.

In this paper, we compute the $BP$-cohomology of complex projective Stiefel manifolds. The method involves the homotopy fixed point spectral sequence, and works for complex oriented cohomology theories. We also use these calculations and $BP$-operations to prove new results about equivariant maps between Stiefel manifolds.

The finite dual $H^{\circ}$ of an affine commutative-by-finite Hopf algebra H is studied. Such a Hopf algebra H is an extension of an affine commutative Hopf algebra A by a finite dimensional Hopf algebra $\overline{H}$. The main theorem gives natural conditions under which $H^{\circ}$ decomposes as a crossed or smash product of $\overline{H}^{\ast}$ by the finite dual $A^{\circ}$ of A. This decomposition is then further analysed using the Cartier–Gabriel–Kostant theorem to obtain component Hopf subalgebras of $H^{\circ}$ mapping onto the classical components of $A^{\circ}$. The detailed consequences for a number of families of examples are then studied.

This work is devoted to the study of uncertainty principles for finite combinations of Hermite functions. We establish some spectral inequalities for control subsets that are thick with respect to some unbounded densities growing almost linearly at infinity, and provide quantitative estimates, with respect to the energy level of the Hermite functions seen as eigenfunctions of the harmonic oscillator, for the constants appearing in these spectral estimates. These spectral inequalities allow us to derive the null-controllability in any positive time for evolution equations enjoying specific regularizing effects. More precisely, for a given index $\frac {1}{2} \leq \mu <1$, we deduce sufficient geometric conditions on control subsets to ensure the null-controllability of evolution equations enjoying regularizing effects in the symmetric Gelfand–Shilov space $S^{\mu }_{\mu }(\mathbb {R}^{n})$. These results apply in particular to derive the null-controllability in any positive time for evolution equations associated to certain classes of hypoelliptic non-self-adjoint quadratic operators, or to fractional harmonic oscillators.

Multi-compartment models described by systems of linear ordinary differential equations are considered. Catenary models are a particular class where the compartments are arranged in a chain. A unified methodology based on the Laplace transform is utilised to solve direct and inverse problems for multi-compartment models. Explicit formulas for the parameters in a catenary model are obtained in terms of the roots of elementary symmetric polynomials. A method to estimate parameters for a general multi-compartment model is also provided. Results of numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the approach.

We introduce novel multi-agent interaction models of entropic spatially inhomogeneous evolutionary undisclosed games and their quasi-static limits. These evolutions vastly generalise first- and second-order dynamics. Besides the well-posedness of these novel forms of multi-agent interactions, we are concerned with the learnability of individual payoff functions from observation data. We formulate the payoff learning as a variational problem, minimising the discrepancy between the observations and the predictions by the payoff function. The inferred payoff function can then be used to simulate further evolutions, which are fully data-driven. We prove convergence of minimising solutions obtained from a finite number of observations to a mean-field limit, and the minimal value provides a quantitative error bound on the data-driven evolutions. The abstract framework is fully constructive and numerically implementable. We illustrate this on computational examples where a ground truth payoff function is known and on examples where this is not the case, including a model for pedestrian movement.

We construct examples of quasi-isometric embeddings of word hyperbolic groups into $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$ for $d \geq 4$ which are not limits of Anosov representations into $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$. As a consequence, we conclude that an analogue of the density theorem for $\mathsf {PSL}(2,\mathbb {C})$ does not hold for $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$ when $d \geq 4$.
