We compute the $\mathrm{MU}$-based syntomic cohomologies, mod $(p,v_1,\cdots,v_{n})$, of all $\mathbb{E}_1$ $\mathrm{MU}$-algebra forms of the truncated Brown--Peterson spectrum $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle$. As qualitative consequences, we…

In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, the differential spectrum of the power function $x^{\frac{p^k+1}{2}}$ in $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ is calculated. For an odd prime $p$ such that $p\equiv 3\bmod 4$ and odd $n$ with $k|n$, the differential…

We prove that on $\mathbb{P}^{3}$ there is no exceptional bundle with rank $r=2d^{2}+1$ and degree $d$ for every $|d|\geq 4$. In particular, we find a new obstruction for the existence of exceptional bundles other than $r|(2d^{2}+1)$. We…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $p$ a prime. The power mapping $x^{p^n-3}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ has desirable differential properties, and its differential spectra for $p=2,\,3$ have been determined. In this paper, for any odd prime…

Using the Bockstein spectral sequence developed previously by the authors, we compute the ring ER(n)^*(BO(q)) explicitly. We then use this calculation to show that the ring spectrum MO[2^{n+1}] is ER(n)-orientable (but not…

Map-space $E$/$B$ decompositions of linear polarization are attractive for foreground and CMB analyses because they isolate the $B$-family patterns that contaminate primordial tensor searches from $E$-family patterns that trace coherent…

For strongly even $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}^{C_2}$-rings $E$ we show that any homotopy ring map $\mathrm{MU} \to E^e$ lifts to an $\mathbb{E}_{\rho}$-map $\mathrm{MU}_{\mathbb{R}} \to E$. This refines the Hahn-Shi Real orientations of Lubin-Tate…

We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

Following Hu and Kriz, we study the $C_2$-spectra $BP\mathbb{R}\langle n \rangle$ and $E\mathbb{R}(n)$ that refine the usual truncated Brown-Peterson and the Johnson-Wilson spectra. In particular, we show that they satisfy Gorenstein…

We show that if a positive integer $q$ has $s(q)$ odd prime divisors $p$ for which $p^2$ divides $q$, then a positive proportion of the Laplacian eigenvalues of Maass newforms of weight $0$, level $q$, and principal character occur with…

In the second paper [LZ24b] of this series, we obtained an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly…

We show that, at the prime $p=2$, the spectrum $\Sigma^{-n}D(n)$ splits off the Madsen-Tillmann spectrum $MTO(n)=BO(n)^{-\gamma_n}$ which is compatible with the classic splitting of $M(n)$ off $BO(n)_+$. For $n=2$, together with our…

For any odd prime $p$ and any integer $n>0$ with $p^2|n$, we show that the mod $p$ cohomology ring of the classifying space of the projective unitary group $PU(n)$ is not completely detected by elementary abelian $p$-subgroups, providing…

Let $\mathcal L_n$ for a positive integer $n$ denote the stable homotopy category of $v_n^{-1}BP$-local spectra at a prime number $p$. Then, M.~Hopkins defines the Picard group of $\mathcal L_n$ as a collection of isomorphism classes of…

It is known that the complex projective space $\mathbb{CP}^n$ admits a spin structure if and only if $n$ is odd. In this paper, we provide another proof that $\mathbb{CP}^{2m}$ does not admit a spin structure, by using a circle action.

In this paper, we consider the essential spectrum of submanifolds in Euclidean spaces under various geometric hypotheses. Our results involve extrinsic conditions such as finite total mean curvature, the convergence of the gradient of the…

We show that if {1, b, c, d} is a D(-1) diophantine quadruple with b<c<d and c=1+s^2, then the cases s=p^k, s=2p^k, c=p and c=2p^k do not occur, where p is an odd prime and k is a positive integer. For the integer d=1+x^2, we show that it…

Let $\mathcal{U}$ be the set of positive odd integers that cannot be represented as the sum of a prime and a power of two. In this paper, we prove that $\mathcal{U}$ is not a union of finitely many infinite arithmetic progressions and a set…

Exceptional points~(EPs) appear as degeneracies in the spectrum of non-Hermitian matrices at which the eigenvectors coalesce. In general, an EP of order $n$ may find room to emerge if $2(n-1)$ real constraints are imposed. Our results show…

Despite the recent advances in the theory of exponential Riesz bases, it is yet unknown whether there exists a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ which does not admit a Riesz spectrum, meaning that for every $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ the set…
