Resolving Thinness of Degree-Six Symplectic Hypergeometric Monodromy Groups

J. Maxwell Riestenberg, Diaaeldin Taha, Steve Trettel, Anna Wienhard

  • Mathematics

AlphaEvolve found explicit witness words that Riestenberg, Taha, Trettel and Wienhard use to prove that the degree-six symplectic hypergeometric monodromy groups C-47 and C-55 have finite index in their ambient integral symplectic groups and are arithmetic.

Uniform real Lipschitz surfaces on the triangular lattice

OpenAI

  • Mathematics
  • Theoretical Physics

For uniform real nearest-neighbor Lipschitz heights on triangular-lattice approximations of smooth simply connected domains, the October 6 manuscript claims a centered and normalized Dirichlet Gaussian free-field limit. With a tuned opposite two-arc boundary amplitude, the zero-height interface converges to chordal SLE₄ in uniform curve distance.

Weak Order on the MacNeille Completion of Bruhat Order

Colin Defant

  • Mathematics

Defant’s manuscript claims that, for every alternating sign matrix A, gradedness of [e,A], the corresponding equal-length condition and equidimensionality of all X_B in that interval are equivalent to Cohen–Macaulayness of all those ASM varieties. The new direction establishes Escobar–Klein–Weigandt Conjecture 3.21.

Weak Order on the MacNeille Completion of Bruhat Order

Colin Defant

  • Mathematics

Defant’s manuscript displays an interval in the weak order on six-by-six alternating sign matrices whose Möbius value is 1, although it has none of the specified parabolic forms. Its open-interval order complex is therefore not contractible, contrary to the Hamaker–Reiner dichotomy.

Amenability is not sensitive to the base field

Be'eri Greenfeld

  • Mathematics

For any field extension K⊂L, associative L-algebra A and A-module M, Greenfeld’s manuscript states that amenability of M over A viewed as a K-algebra is equivalent to amenability over L. This also applies to amenable and fully amenable algebras.

Polynomial Hilbert-Schmidt stability of the lamplighter group

Alon Dogon, Thomas Vidick

  • Mathematics
  • Theoretical Computer Science

For finite-dimensional unitaries satisfying approximate order-two and orbit-commutator relations through 2M, with M polynomial in the target tolerance, Dogon and Vidick prove nearby exact lamplighter relations. Their argument gives polynomial upper bounds on Hilbert–Schmidt stability rate and radius.

Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of matroids need not be unimodal

Ronnie Cheng, Shurui Liu

  • Mathematics

Rethlas found a representable rank-seven binary projective-deletion matroid whose Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomial is not real-rooted, with a convolution and degree approach. Cheng and Liu later used that direction to construct representable matroids over every finite field with nonunimodal Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials.

Turbulent Flame Speed Can Increase under Curvature Smoothing

Hung V. Tran, Jack Xin, Yifeng Yu

  • Mathematics

Tran, Xin and Yu construct a smooth periodic three-dimensional shear flow V=(0,0,f(x₁,x₂)) and direction (2,2,1) whose homogenized G-equation flame speed has c(0)=0 and positive right derivative as curvature diffusivity d tends to zero. For small d the cutoff is inactive, so the physical cutoff cell speed increases.

Codex reformulates graviton cut tests as root-cone flows

  • Mathematics
  • Theoretical Physics

Kehoe’s working preprint recasts global cut conditions in the general-region half-collinear single-minus graviton recursion as positive directed-tree flows and open-root-cone membership. Retarded vertices become weighted sums over feasible spanning trees; directed Matrix-Tree determinants apply in chambers with a full arborescence family. It classifies four- and five-block chambers and gives one non-decay five-graviton identity.

Commutator relators of one-relator groups do not force Hopficity, residual finiteness, or automaticity
