Two actions of the Hecke algebra of type A on the corresponding polynomial ring are studied. Both are deformations of the natural action of the symmetric group on polynomials, and keep symmetric functions invariant. We give an explicit…

A conjecture of Hopkins (2018) posits that for certain high-dimensional hypothesis testing problems, no polynomial-time algorithm can outperform so-called "simple statistics", which are low-degree polynomials in the data. This conjecture…

In recent work by Reguera and Thiele and by Reguera and Scurry, two conjectures about joint weighted estimates for Calder\'on-Zygmund operators and the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function have been refuted in the one-dimensional case. One of…

We study in detail the algebra of free ghost fields which we realize in a Hilbert-Fock space with positive metric. The investigation of causality clarifies the exact reason for the failure of the spin-statistics theorem and leads to the…

Let \chi\ be the primitive Dirichlet character of conductor 49 defined by \chi(3)=\zeta, for \zeta\ a primitive 42nd root of unity. We explicitly compute the slopes of the U_7 operator acting on the space of overconvergent modular forms on…

We present a modification of the Berkovits superparticle. This is firstly in order to covariantly quantize the pure spinor ghosts, and secondly to covariantly calculate matrix elements of a generic operator between two states. We proceed by…

We consider the operator of taking the $2p$th derivative of a function with zero boundary conditions for the function and its first $p-1$ derivatives at two distinct points. Our main result provides an asymptotic formula for the eigenvalues…

Let $\overline{p}(n)$ denote the number of overpartitions of $n$. Hirschhorn and Sellers showed that $\overline{p}(4n+3)\equiv 0 \pmod{8}$ for $n\geq 0$. They also conjectured that $\overline{p}(40n+35)\equiv 0 \pmod{40}$ for $n\geq 0$.…

For any n-by-n complex matrix T and any $1\leqslant k\leqslant n$, let $\Lambda_{k}(T)$ the set of all $\lambda\in \C$ such that $PTP=\lambda P$ for some rank-k orthogonal projection $P$ be its higher rank-k numerical range. It is shown…

Consider a closed curve of length $2\pi$ with curvature $\kappa(s)$ and the Schr\"odinger operator $H$ with $\kappa^2$ as the potential term. Let $\lambda_\Gamma$ be the lowest eigenvalue of $H$. The Ovals Conjecture proposed by Benguria…

Inspired by recent congruences by Andersen with varying powers of 2 in the modulus for partition related functions, we extend the modulo 32760 congruences of the first author for the function spt(n). We show that a normalized form of the…

The purpose of this paper is to compute the asymptotics of determinants of finite sections of operators that are trace class perturbations of Toeplitz operators. For example, we consider the asymptotics in the case where the matrices are of…

We derive a lower bound for a second moment of the reciprocal of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the zeros of the zeta-function that is half the size of the conjectured value. Our result is conditional upon the…

We describe a novel method for bounding the dimension $d$ of the largest simple Hecke submodule of $S_2(\Gamma_0(N);\mathbb{Q})$ from below. Such bounds are of interest because of their relevance to the structure of $J_0(N)$, for instance.…

We extend the Main Theorem of Aschbacher and Smith on Quillen's Conjecture from $p>5$ to the remaining odd primes $p = 3,5$. In the process, we develop further combinatorial and homotopical methods for studying the poset of nontrivial…

We report the finding of the new upper bound on the lowest positive integer $x$ for which the Mertens conjecture \begin{equation*} \left| \sum_{1 \leq n \leq x} \mu(n) \right| < \sqrt{x} \end{equation*} fails to hold: $x < \exp(1.017 \times…

In this paper we construct an action of the affine Hecke category (in its "Soergel bimodules" incarnation) on the principal block of representations of a simply-connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of…

For all odd primes N up to 500000, we compute the action of the Hecke operator T_2 on the space S_2(Gamma_0(N), Q) and determine whether or not the reduction mod 2 (with respect to a suitable basis) has 0 and/or 1 as eigenvalues. We then…

In this paper, we define the multiplicative Hecke operators $\mathcal{T}(n)$ for any positive integer on the integral weight meromorphic modular forms for $\Gamma_{0}(N)$. We then show that they have properties similar to those of additive…

Some monotone increasing sequences of the lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of $M$-matrices are given. It is proved that these sequences are convergent and improve some existing results. Numerical examples show that these sequences…
