Nodal algebraic curves and entropy diagnostics in degenerate two-dimensional harmonic-oscillator shells

C A Escobar Ruiz, H Olivares-Pilon, A M Escobar-Ruiz · 2026

Degenerate quantum eigenspaces can support substantial changes in nodal geometry at fixed energy. We show that, for the two-dimensional isotropic harmonic oscillator, this restructuring is organized b…

The proportion of permutations fixing a $k$-set

Ben Green, Mehtaab Sawhney · 2026

Denote by $p(k)$ the limit, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, of the probability that a random permutation on a set of size $n$ has an invariant set of size $k$. We give an asymptotic formula for $p(k)$, sho…

On centered local $\pi$-bases

Nathan Carlson · 2026

In 1967 Hajnal and Juh{\'a}sz showed that the cardinality of a first-countable Hausdorff space with the countable chain condition has cardinality at most $\mathfrak{c}$, the cardinality of the real li…

A torsion-intersection proof of perfect-cuboid nonexistence on 1,072 explicit master-tuple fibers

Rene Peschmann · 2026

Building on the genus-3 reduction $C_A : w^2 = \lambda^8 + A \lambda^4 + 1$ established in our companion paper (arXiv:2604.09328), we give an unconditional proof of the perfect-cuboid conjecture ("Con…

Hallucination, Abstention, and Recursive Inseparability

Takuma Imamura · 2026

The impossibility of eliminating hallucination, understood here as incorrect definite answers, in sufficiently expressive yes-or-no formal domains is an immediate consequence of classical undecidabili…

Hypergraph independence bounds: from maximum degree to average degree

Jing Yu, Junchi Zhang · 2026

We prove a transfer theorem for hereditary classes of $(r+1)$-uniform hypergraphs. Let $\mathcal G$ be such a class, and for $H\in\mathcal G$ write $\Delta(H)$ and $d(H)$ for the maximum degree and av…

Ease of dependency distance minimization in star-like structures

Emilia Garcia-Casademont, Ramon Ferrer-i-Cancho · 2026

The syntactic structure of a sentence can be represented as a tree where edges indicate syntactic dependencies between words. When that structure is a star, it has been demonstrated that the head shou…

Order by disorder up to arbitrarily high temperature

Ravish Mehta · 2026

We prove that a class of classical lattice models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d \geq 2$) with on-site space $\mathbb{N}_0$ exhibits long-range checkerboard order at sufficiently high temperature. The model ha…

Gauge symmetry and uniqueness in inverse problems for the JMGT equation

Dong Qiu, Xiang Xu, Yeqiong Ye, Ting Zhou · 2026

In this paper, we study an inverse boundary value problem for the Jordan--Moore--Gibson--Thompson equation on a simple Riemannian manifold. We consider an all boundary measurement map that maps Dirich…

Cosmological intercept tension

Jia-Qi Wang, Shao-Jiang Wang · 2026

The long-standing tension in the Hubble constant $H_0$ has motivated extensive explorations of both new physics and observational systematics, for example, the late-time systematics in measuring the B…

Frank-Wolfe Beyond 1/t Convergence

Sebastian Pokutta · 2026

We consider smooth convex minimization over compact convex sets, i.e., $\min_{x \in C} f(x)$ with the (vanilla) Frank-Wolfe algorithm. Well-known lower bounds establish a worst-case $\Omega(1/t)$ prim…

$b \to c$ semileptonic sum rule: orbitally excited hadrons

Motoi Endo, Syuhei Iguro, Satoshi Mishima · 2026

We study semileptonic sum rules for $b \to c \tau \overline{\nu}$ transitions involving orbitally excited charm hadrons. Starting from the amplitude-level relation implied by the heavy quark symmetry,…

Simpler and Improved Replacement Path Coverings

Davide Bilo, Shiri Chechik, Keerti Choudhary, Sarel Cohen, Martin Schirneck · 2026

An important tool in the design of fault-tolerant graph data structures are $(L,f)$-replacement path coverings (RPCs). An RPC is a family $\mathcal{G}$ of subgraphs of a given graph $G$ such that, for…

Rotation-Induced Pressure Anisotropy in Newtonian White Dwarfs: Sequences and Applicability Criteria

Aray Muratkhan, Saken Toktarbay, Hernando Quevedo · 2026

We introduce a fast, one-dimensional Newtonian {reduced model} to capture uniform rotation in cold white dwarfs, encoding centrifugal support as an effective pressure anisotropy. Using $\Delta_{\rm ro…

Irreducible Ferrers diagrams in the Etzion-Silberstein conjecture

Hugo Beeloo-Sauerbier Couvee, Alessandro Neri · 2026

The Etzion-Silberstein conjecture asserts that, for any finite field $\mathbb F$, Ferrers diagram $\mathcal D$, and integer $d$, there exists a linear matrix code supported on $\mathcal D$ with minimu…

Cosmological Observational Tests in the JWST Era. II: The Tolman Test

V. V. Tsymbal, A. A. Raikov, N. Yu. Lovyagin · 2026

In this work, we investigate a classical cosmological test - the dependence of galaxy surface brightness on redshift z (the Tolman test). We analyzed 6 860 galaxies with reliably determined spectrosco…

A Generalisation of Goursat's Algorithm for Integration in Finite Terms

Sam Blake · 2026

We give a self-contained, modern exposition of \'Edouard Goursat's 1887 theorem on pseudo-elliptic integrals -- those integrals of the form $\int F(t)\,\d t/\sqrt{R(t)}$ with $R$ a cubic or quartic po…

Search for light charged Higgs bosons decaying to charm and strange quarks in $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ events in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

CMS Collaboration · 2026

A search is presented for a light charged Higgs boson H$^\pm$ in top quark pair production ($\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$), where one of the top quarks decays to an H$^\pm$ and a bottom quark, while the other d…
