Motivated by the Grothendieck construction, we study the functorialities of the comma construction for strict ω-categories. To state the most general functorialities, we use the language of Gray ω-categories, that is, categories enriched in the category of strict ω-categories endowed with the oplax Gray tensor product. Our main result is that the comma construction of strict ω-categories defines a Gray ω-functor, that is, a morphism of Gray ω-categories. To makes sense of this statement, we prove that slices of Gray ω-categories exist. Coming back to the Grothendieck construction, we propose a definition in terms of the comma construction and, as a consequence, we get that the Grothendieck construction of strict ω-categories defines a Gray ω-functor. Finally, as a by-product, we get a notion of Grothendieck construction for Gray ω-functors, which we plan to investigate in future work.

The (favorable) Falkner-Skan boundary layer profiles are a one parameter () family of self-similar solutions to the stationary Prandtl system which describes the flow over a wedge with angle . The most famous member of this family is the endpoint Blasius profile, , which exhibits pressureless flow over a flat plate. In contrast, the profiles are physically expected to exhibit a favorable pressure gradient, a common adage in the physics literature. In this work, we prove quantitative scattering estimates as which precisely captures the effect of this favorable gradient through the presence of new “CK” (Cauchy-Kovalevskaya) terms that appear in a quasilinear energy cascade.

Introduced by Takagi and Watanabe, F-pure thresholds are invariants defined in terms of the Frobenius homomorphism. While they find applications in various settings, they are primarily used as a local invariant. The purpose of this note is to start filling this gap by opening the study of its behavior on a scheme. To this end, we define the defect of the F-pure threshold of a local ring by setting . It turns out that this invariant defines an upper semi-continuous function on a scheme and satisfies Bertini-type theorems. We also study the behavior of the defect of the F-pure threshold under flat extensions and after blowing up the maximal ideal of a local ring.

We prove a relative version over of Nash-Tognoli theorem, that is: Let M be a compact smooth manifold with closed smooth submanifolds in general position, then there exists a nonsingular real algebraic set with nonsingular algebraic subsets and a diffeomorphism such that for all such that are described, both globally and locally, by polynomial equations with rational coefficients. In addition, if are nonsingular algebraic sets, then we prove the diffeomorphism can be chosen semialgebraic and the result can be extended to the noncompact case. In the proof we describe also the -homological cycles of real embedded Grassmannian manifolds by nonsingular algebraic representatives over via the Bott-Samelson resolution of Schubert varieties.

We construct a family of potentially quasi-lisse (non-rational) vertex algebras, denoted by , , which are closely related to the vertex algebra of chiral differential operators on at level . We prove that for , there is an isomorphism between and the affine vertex algebra from the Cvitanović-Deligne series. Moreover, we also establish isomorphisms between and and certain affine W-algebras of types and , respectively. In this way, we resolve the problem of decomposing certain conformal embeddings of affine vertex algebras into affine W-algebras. An important feature is that is -graded with finite-dimensional graded subspaces and convergent characters. Therefore, for all , we show that the characters of exhibit modularity, supporting the conjectural quasi-lisse property.

We compute the mod and mod THH of many variants of the image-of-J spectrum. In particular, we do this for , whose TC is closely related to the K-theory of the -local sphere. We find in particular that the failure for THH to satisfy -Galois descent for the extension corresponds to the failure of the p-adic circle to be its own free loop space. For , we also prove the Segal conjecture for , and we compute the K-theory of the -local sphere in degrees .

We establish a new upper bound for the number of rationals up to a given height in a missing-digit set, making progress towards a conjecture of Broderick, Fishman, and Reich. This enables us to make novel progress towards another conjecture of those authors about the corresponding intrinsic diophantine approximation problem. Moreover, we make further progress towards conjectures of Bugeaud–Durand and Levesley–Salp–Velani on the distribution of diophantine exponents in missing-digit sets.
A key tool in our study is Fourier dimension introduced by the last named author in Yu (2021) [12]. An important technical contribution of the paper is a method to compute this quantity.

This paper solves the first of the open problems in topos theory posted by William Lawvere, concerning the existence of a Grothendieck topos that has proper class many quotient topoi. This paper concretely constructs such Grothendieck topoi, including the presheaf topos on the free monoid generated by countably infinitely many elements . Utilizing the combinatorics of the classifying topos of the theory of inhabited objects and with the help of a system of pairing functions, the problem is reduced to a theorem of Vopěnka, Pultr, and Hedrlín, which states that any set admits a rigid relational structure.
