We study the Facilitated TASEP, an interacting particle system on the one
dimensional integer lattice. We prove that starting from step initial
condition, the position of the rightmost particle has Tracy Widom GSE
statistics on a cube root ...
Anomaly cancellation by generalised cohomology

Supersymmetric states in M-theory are mapped after compactification to
perturbatively non-supersymmetric states in type IIA string theory, with the
supersymmetric parts being encoded in the non-perturbative section of the
string theory. An ...

This memoir presents a systematic study of utility maximization problems for
an investor in constrained and unbounded financial markets. Building upon the
foundational work of Hu et al. (2005) [Ann. Appl. Probab., 15, 1691--1712] in a
bound...

The puzzle rules for computing Schubert calculus on d-step flag manifolds,
proven in [Knutson Tao 2003] for 1-step, in [Buch Kresch Purbhoo Tamvakis
2016] for 2-step, and conjectured in [Coskun Vakil 2009] for 3-step, lead
to vector...

Understanding network influence and its determinants are key challenges in

We consider a finite element method for elliptic equation with heterogeneous
and possibly high-contrast coefficients based on primal hybrid formulation. A
space decomposition as in FETI and BDCC allows a sequential computations of the

A progress on the binary Goldbach conjecture

Number Theory
In this paper we develop the method of circle of partitions and associated
statistics. As an application we prove conditionally the binary Goldbach
conjecture. We develop series of steps to prove the binary Goldbach conjecture
in full. We e...
An algorithm to find maximum area polygons circumscribed about a convex

Combinatorics
A convex polygon Q is circumscribed about a convex polygon P if every vertex
of P lies on at least one side of Q. We present an algorithm for finding a
maximum area convex polygon circumscribed about any given convex n-gon in
O(n^3) time. A...

We construct the coarse index class with support condition (as an element of

manifold endowed with a proper, isometric action of a group. We further show a

We give a bordered extension of involutive HF-hat and use it to give an

how the mapping class group action on HF-hat can be computed using bordered
