By extending some basic results about cohomological dimension of tensor products to non-positive DG-rings, the Intersection Theorem for DG-modules is examined over commutative noetherian local DG-rings with bounded cohomology. Some applications are provided. The first is to improve the DG-setting of the amplitude inequality in [Forum Math. 22 (2010) 941–948]. The second is to show Minamoto’s conjecture in [Israel J. Math. 242 (2021) 1–36]. The third is to obtain the DG-version of the Vasconcelos conjecture about Gorenstein rings.

A general way to represent stochastic differential equations (SDEs) on smooth manifolds is based on the Schwartz morphism. In this manuscript, we are interested in SDEs on a smooth manifold $M$ that are driven by p-dimensional Wiener process $W_t \in \mathbb{R}^p$ and time $t$. In terms of the Schwartz morphism, such an SDE is represented by a Schwartz morphism that morphs the semimartingale $(t,W_t)\in\mathbb{R}^{p+1}$ into a semimartingale on the manifold $M$. We show that it is possible to construct such Schwartz morphisms using special maps that we call diffusion generators. We show that one of the ways to construct a diffusion generator is by considering the flow of differential equations. One particular case is the construction of diffusion generators using Lagrangian vector fields. Using the diffusion generator approach, we also give the extended Itô formula (also known as generalized Itô formula or Itô–Wentzell formula) for SDEs on manifolds.

We consider the existence of normalized solutions to non-linear Schrödinger equations on non-compact metric graphs in the L2-supercritical regime. For sufficiently small prescribed mass (L2 norm), we prove existence of positive solutions on two classes of graphs: periodic graphs and non-compact graphs with finitely many edges and suitable topological assumptions. Our approach is based on mountain pass techniques. A key point to overcome the serious lack of compactness is to show that all solutions with small mass have positive energy. To complement our analysis, we prove that this is no longer true, in general, for large masses. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first results with an L2-supercritical non-linearity extended on the whole graph and unravelling the role of topology in the existence of solutions.

A reflection mapping is a singular holomorphic mapping obtained by restricting the quotient mapping of a complex reflection group. We study the analytic structure of double point spaces of reflection mappings. In the case where the image is a hypersurface, we obtain explicit equations for the double point space and for the image as well. In the case of surfaces in ${\mathbb C}^3$, this gives a very efficient method to compute the Milnor number and delta invariant of the double point curve.

Fix integers $r \ge 2$ and $1\le s_1\le \cdots \le s_{r-1}\le t$ and set $s=\prod _{i=1}^{r-1}s_i$. Let $K=K(s_1, \ldots , s_{r-1}, t)$ denote the complete $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraph with parts of size $s_1, \ldots , s_{r-1}, t$. We prove that the Zarankiewicz number $z(n, K)= n^{r-1/s-o(1)}$ provided $t\gt 3^{s+o(s)}$. Previously this was known only for $t \gt ((r-1)(s-1))!$ due to Pohoata and Zakharov. Our novel approach, which uses Behrend’s construction of sets with no 3-term arithmetic progression, also applies for small values of $s_i$, for example, it gives $z(n, K(2,2,7))=n^{11/4-o(1)}$ where the exponent 11/4 is optimal, whereas previously this was only known with 7 replaced by 721.

The Generalised Baker–Schmidt Problem (1970) concerns the Hausdorff measure of the set of $\psi$-approximable points on a non-degenerate manifold. Beresnevich-Dickinson-Velani (in 2006, for the homogeneous setting) and Badziahin-Beresnevich-Velani (in 2013, for the inhomogeneous setting) proved the divergence part of this problem for dual approximation on arbitrary non-degenerate manifolds. The divergence part has also been resolved for the $p$-adic setting by Datta-Ghosh in 2022, for the inhomogeneous setting. The corresponding convergence counterpart represents a challenging open question. In this paper, we prove the homogeneous $p$-adic convergence result for hypersurfaces of dimension at least three with some mild regularity condition, as well as for some other classes of manifolds satisfying certain conditions. We provide similar, slightly weaker results for the inhomogeneous setting. We do not restrict to monotonic approximation functions.

The famous Sidorenko’s conjecture asserts that for every bipartite graph $H$, the number of homomorphisms from $H$ to a graph $G$ with given edge density is minimised when $G$ is pseudorandom. We prove that for any graph $H$, a graph obtained from replacing edges of $H$ by generalised theta graphs consisting of even paths satisfies Sidorenko’s conjecture, provided a certain divisibility condition on the number of paths. To achieve this, we prove unconditionally that bipartite graphs obtained from replacing each edge of a complete graph with a generalised theta graph satisfy Sidorenko’s conjecture, which extends a result of Conlon, Kim, Lee and Lee [J. Lond. Math. Soc., 2018].

In this paper, we study the existence and stability of solitary wave solutions for the generalized Benjamin equation in both the $L^2$-critical and $L^2$-supercritical cases by applying the variational methods and the non-homogeneous Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequality. Our main results generalize and complement the existing results in the literature.

In this paper, we are concerned with the following Dirichlet problems for nonlinear equations involving the fractional $p$-Laplacian:

\begin{equation*}\begin{cases}(-\Delta)_p^\alpha u=f(x,u,\nabla u),\ \ u \gt 0,\ \ \text{in}\ \ E,\\\ \ \ \ \ \ u\equiv0, \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus E,\end{cases}\end{equation*}

where $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n}$ is a coercive epigraph, i.e., there exists a continuous function $\phi: \, \mathbb{R}^{n-1} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ satisfying

\begin{equation*}\lim_{|x'|\rightarrow+\infty}\phi(x')=+\infty,\end{equation*}

such that $E:=\{x=(x',x_{n}) \in \mathbb{R}^{n}|\,x_{n} \gt \phi(x')\}$, where $x':= (x_{1},...,x_{n-1}) \in \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$. Under some mild assumptions on the nonlinearity $f(x,u,\nabla u)$, we prove strict monotonicity of positive solutions to the above Dirichlet problems involving fractional $p$-Laplacian in coercive epigraph $E$.

We show that for any integer $k\ge 1$ there exists an integer $t_0(k)$ such that, for integers $t, k_1, \ldots , k_{t+1}, n$ with $t\gt t_0(k)$, $\max \{k_1, \ldots , k_{t+1}\}\le k$, and $n \gt 2k(t+1)$, the following holds: If $F_i$ is a $k_i$-uniform hypergraph with vertex set $[n]$ and more than $ \binom{n}{k_i}-\binom{n-t}{k_i} - \binom{n-t-k}{k_i-1} + 1$ edges for all $i \in [t+1]$, then either $\{F_1,\ldots , F_{t+1}\}$ admits a rainbow matching of size $t+1$ or there exists $W\in \binom{[n]}{t}$ such that $W$ intersects $F_i$ for all $i\in [t+1]$. This may be viewed as a rainbow non-uniform extension of the classical Hilton-Milner theorem. We also show that the same holds for every $t$ and $n \gt 2k^3t$, generalizing a recent stability result of Frankl and Kupavskii on matchings to rainbow matchings.

We obtain polylogarithmic bounds in the polynomial Szemerédi theorem when the polynomials have distinct degrees and zero constant terms. Specifically, let $P_1, \dots, P_m \in \mathbb Z[y]$ be polynomials with distinct degrees, each having zero constant term. Then there exists a constant $c = c(P_1,\dots,P_m) \gt 0$ such that any subset $A \subset \{1,2,\dots,N\}$ of density at least $(\log N)^{-c}$ contains a nontrivial polynomial progression of the form $x, x+P_1(y), \dots, x+P_m(y)$. In addition, we prove an effective “popular” version, showing that every dense subset $A$ has some non-zero $y$ such that the number of polynomial progressions in $A$ with this difference $y$ is asymptotically at least as large as in a random set of the same density as $A$.

We extend the notion of the J-invariant to arbitrary semisimple linear algebraic groups and provide complete decompositions for the normed Chow motives of all generically quasi-split twisted flag varieties. Besides, we establish some combinatorial patterns for normed Chow groups and motives and provide some explicit formulae for values of the J-invariant.

In this paper, we establish the $L^p$ bounds for partial polynomial Carleson operators along polynomial curves for $p \gt 1$, which depend only on $p$ and the number of monomials in the defining polynomial. Additionally, we study two classes of oscillatory integral operators of Radon type and derive uniform $L^2$ bounds.

We extend a classical model of continuous opinion formation to explicitly include an age-structured population. We begin by considering a stochastic differential equation model which incorporates ageing dynamics and birth/death processes, in a bounded confidence type opinion formation model. We then derive and analyse the corresponding mean field partial differential equation and compare the complex dynamics on the microscopic and macroscopic levels using numerical simulations. We rigorously prove the existence of stationary states in the mean field model, but also demonstrate that these stationary states are not necessarily unique. Finally, we establish connections between this and other existing models in various scenarios.

Recent work showing the existence of conflict-free almost-perfect hypergraph matchings has found many applications. We show that, assuming certain simple degree and codegree conditions on the hypergraph $ \mathcal{H}$ and the conflicts to be avoided, a conflict-free almost-perfect matching can be extended to one covering all vertices in a particular subset of $ V(\mathcal{H})$, by using an additional set of edges; in particular, we ensure that our matching avoids all additional conflicts, which may consist of both old and new edges. This setup is useful for various applications in design theory and Ramsey theory. For example, our main result provides a crucial tool in the recent proof of the high-girth existence conjecture due to Delcourt and Postle. It also provides a black box which encapsulates many long and tedious calculations, greatly simplifying the proofs of results in generalised Ramsey theory.

In this paper, we prove the integrality conjecture for quotient stacks arising from weakly symmetric representations of reductive groups. Our main result is a decomposition of the cohomology of the stack into finite-dimensional components indexed by some equivalence classes of cocharacters of a maximal torus. This decomposition enables the definition of new enumerative invariants associated with the stack, which we begin to explore.

In this work, we conclude our study of fibred $\infty $-bicategories by providing a Grothendieck construction in this setting. Given a scaled simplicial set S (which need not be fibrant) we construct a 2-categorical version of Lurie’s straightening-unstraightening adjunction, thereby furnishing an equivalence between the $\infty $-bicategory of 2-Cartesian fibrations over S and the $\infty $-bicategory of contravariant functors with values in the $\infty $-bicategory of $\infty $-bicategories. We provide a relative nerve construction in the case where the base is a 2-category, and use this to prove a comparison to existing bicategorical Grothendieck constructions.

The primary aim of this paper is to give topological obstructions to Cantor sets in $\mathbb{R}^3$ being Julia sets of uniformly quasiregular mappings. Our main tool is the genus of a Cantor set. We give a new construction of a genus g Cantor set, the first for which the local genus is g at every point, and then show that this Cantor set can be realized as the Julia set of a uniformly quasiregular mapping. These are the first such Cantor Julia sets constructed for $g\geq 3$. We then turn to our dynamical applications and show that every Cantor Julia set of a hyperbolic uniformly quasiregular map has a finite genus g; that a given local genus in a Cantor Julia set must occur on a dense subset of the Julia set; and that there do exist Cantor Julia sets where the local genus is non-constant.

Given $p\in[1,\infty)$ and a bounded open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with Lipschitz boundary, we study the $\Gamma$-convergence of the weighted fractional seminorm

\begin{equation*}[u]_{s,p,f}^p=\int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \frac{|\tilde u(x)- \tilde u(y)|^p}{\|x-y\|^{d+sp}}\,f(x)\,f(y)\,\mathrm{d} x\,\mathrm{d} y,\end{equation*}

as $s\to1^-$ for $u\in L^p(\Omega)$, where $\tilde u=u$ on $\Omega$ and $\tilde u=0$ on $\mathbb{R}^d\setminus\Omega$. Assuming that $(f_s)_{s\in(0,1)}\subset L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^d;[0,\infty))$ and $f\in\mathrm{Lip}_b(\mathbb{R}^d;(0,\infty))$ are such that $f_s\to f$ in $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^d)$ as $s\to1^-$, we show that $(1-s)[u]_{s,p,f_s}^p$ $\Gamma$-converges to the Dirichlet $p$-energy weighted by $f^2$. In the case $p=2$, we also prove the convergence of the corresponding gradient flows.

The homology of the free and the based loop space of a compact globally symmetric space can be studied through explicit cycles. We use cycles constructed by Bott and Samelson and by Ziller to study the string topology coproduct and the Chas-Sullivan product on compact symmetric spaces. We show that the Chas-Sullivan product for compact symmetric spaces is highly non-trivial for any rank and we prove that there are many non-nilpotent classes whose powers correspond to the iteration of closed geodesics. Moreover, we show that the based string topology coproduct is trivial for compact symmetric spaces of higher rank and we study the implications of this result for the string topology coproduct on the free loop space.
