We study invariant statistical connections on the space $\mathcal{N}_0^n$ of zero-mean multivariate normal distributions (the multivariate centered Gaussian model) equipped with the Fisher metric $g^F$. We introduce moduli spaces of…

For a compact, connected, orientable Riemannian manifold with $b$ boundary components, we obtain geometric lower bounds for the low Steklov eigenvalues, namely $\sigma_k$, $1\le k\le b-1$. Our results complement earlier results, which apply…

In this work, we study several inequalities related to a Dirichlet problem on Riemannian manifolds whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below. First, we establish inequalities involving the torsional rigidity and discuss rigidity results…

We construct canonical extensions of $p$-adic shtukas on integral models of toroidal compactifications of abelian-type Shimura varieties with quasi-parahoric levels at any prime number $p$. More precisely, we define the notion of a log…

Let $g$ be a smooth metric on $\mathbb R^3$ with non-negative scalar curvature. We show that if $g$ satisfies $\vert g(x)-g_{\text{euc}}(x)\vert = O(\vert x\vert^{-1-\tau})$ for some $\tau > 0$ then $g$ must be flat.

The Euclidean paradigm that spheres optimize mean curvature variational problems breaks down in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group: neither the Pansu sphere nor the Kor\'anyi sphere is optimal for the variational problems associated with…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

In this article we study the Iwasawa invariants of Bertolini--Darmon theta elements in the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ for weight two modular forms $f\in S_2(\Gamma_0(N))$. We cover both the…

The author and Kawakami revealed that the Picard little theorem, the Carath\'{e}odory--Montel theorem and the Fujimoto theorem -- phenomena concerning omitted values in value distribution theory, normal family theory and the theory of Gauss…

We study the existence of area-minimizing homotopies between homotopic curves in the plane. While the classical Plateau problem establishes the existence of least-area surfaces spanning a single Jordan curve, the corresponding existence…

We modify the approach to the arithmetical form of the large sieve by relying on the Parseval identity rather than on an approximate Bessel inequality and as a consequence, improve on the weighted large sieve inequality beyond what was…

It is well known that every compact oriented 3-manifold admits an ideal triangulation, and that any two such triangulations with at least two ideal tetrahedra are related by a sequence of Pachner $2$-$3$ moves. Motivated by constructions in…

We construct a family of Whittaker functions for $SL(m,\mathbb{Z})$ induced directly from Whittaker functions for $SL(n,\mathbb{Z})$, for any $2 \leq m<n$. Given Jacquet's Whittaker function $W_{\alpha,N}^{(n)}$ on the generalized upper…

Let $p$ be a prime. Suppose that integers $r$, $e$, $d$ such that $r \ge 2$, $e \ge 0$, $0 \le d \le p$ are given. Let $f(x)=s_0 x^r + s_1 x^{r-1} + \cdots + s_r$ be a generic polynomial of degree $r$ in characteristic $p$. We put…

A linearized function field $F$ can be viewed as a Galois extension of a rational function field $K(x)$. For a totally ramified place $Q$ of degree one in $F/K(x)$, we give a unified description of the set $G(Q)$ of gaps at $Q$. As a…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for the generalized Monge-Amp\`ere equation and the supercritical deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation in cohomology classes lying on the boundary of the solvable region. Moreover,…

We classify knot traces with trisection genus at most 2. We give infinitely many knots whose traces have trisection genus 3, and infinitely many knots whose traces have trisection genus 4. We also show that there exist infinite families of…

We develop a framework for discrete p-density and compression-radius profiles of lattice knots. For lattice polygons representing a fixed knot type, we define scale-free density quantities by dividing lattice length by chord-length spread…

We study the connection between the Mersenne numbers $M(n) = 2^n-1$ and the dynamics of the angle-doubling map. Within this framework, we develop an algorithm to compute divisors of Mersenne numbers without explicitly evaluating $M(n)$.…

We construct a $1$-bounded completely multiplicative function $f$ whose logarithmically-averaged partial sums satisfy $$ \limsup_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\left|\sum_{n \leq x} \frac{f(n)}{n}\right|}{1+\exp\left(\sum_{p \leq x}…
