A new arXiv preprint presents complementary birational constructions for degree-two marked elliptic surfaces with double fibres, while spelling out where the methods depend on additional assumptions.
A mathematical preprint uses Hamiltonian Floer theory to establish a conditional lower bound for periodic solutions in a stochastic particle-field model. The result concerns a theorem and limiting measures, not experimental observations or a full theory of quantum electrodynamics.
A theoretical preprint links quantitative K-stability data with the existence of positive scalar curvature Kähler metrics. Under its stated assumptions, a positive threshold corresponds to such a metric, while a threshold above the average scalar curvature corresponds to a unique constant scalar curvature metric. The boundary case requires additional information.
A theoretical preprint establishes existence and uniqueness for a Dirichlet problem at infinity involving noncompact convex hypersurfaces in Minkowski space. It also reports conditional global existence and local smooth convergence for a normalized inverse curvature flow, while showing that similar conclusions do not generally carry over to certain quotient flows.
An arXiv preprint presents a rigidity theorem for complete shrinking gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature. If the soliton also satisfies a specified curvature inequality outside a compact region and converges smoothly to R² × Sⁿ⁻², the authors conclude that the entire space is isometric to that product. The proof uses curvature estimates, level-set arguments and geometric-spl คน?
A mathematical preprint gives a structural account of hyperbolic-surface entropy, showing that proper-subsurface entropies remain below 1 and that the spectrum has a tightly constrained order.
A theorem-based mathematics preprint proposes adding cohomology-driven cap layers to Hamiltonian Floer persistence. In a constructed genus-two example, the refinement distinguishes Hamiltonians that standard Floer summaries cannot separate.
A mathematical preprint derives an exact formula for the Hofer–Zehnder capacity of unit disk bundles over ellipsoids. The capacity is determined by the shorter of twice the systole and a shortest Morse-index-3 closed geodesic, while related two-sphere results provide bounds rather than a universal formula.
An arXiv preprint shows through algebraic examples and proofs that the Cayley 4-form is not unique in producing a non-degenerate Riemannian metric through Karigiannis’s formula. The work also separates two notions of non-degeneracy and leaves their proposed equivalence unresolved.
An arXiv preprint proposes an arithmetic de Rham stack as a common framework for rigid cohomology and related coefficient theories. It states descent, duality, categorical equivalences and arithmetic applications, while leaving the results conditional on their mathematical hypotheses.
A geometry preprint presents a proof of Bray’s conjecture, using entropy comparisons, spherical rearrangement and normalized Ricci flow to establish a conditional volume bound for a class of closed Riemannian manifolds.
A new arXiv preprint reports that the round disk has the greatest cartographic distortion among convex regions of the same area on the unit sphere. Its result comes from a deterministic geometric proof, not from maps, measurements or human testing.
A mathematical preprint constructs K(X) ⊂ K(Y) ⊂ K(Z) with zero inclusion-induced maps on π2, and gives a Lie-ring inclusion where Π2 changes from nonzero to zero.
A theoretical preprint develops MU-module and framed sphere-spectrum versions of a Viterbo-type equivalence for the cotangent bundle of a closed smooth manifold. It also explains why passing from sphere spectra to MU cannot generally recover the canonical MU-level construction.
A theoretical arXiv preprint connects relative topological Hochschild homology with Frobenius-twisted prismatic structures and works out the surviving rows of a descent spectral sequence for a p-completed example.
An arXiv preprint gives a positive answer to a narrowly defined geometric question for three classes of translation surfaces. Its constructions continuously deform polygonal pieces within a fixed stratum and, after unit-area normalization, make the systole—the length of a shortest saddle connection—increase strictly along the path.
