On the renormalization and quantization of topological-holomorphic field theories

This paper rigorously establishes the ultraviolet finiteness of topological-holomorphic field theories on Rd×Cd\mathbb{R}^{d'} \times \mathbb{C}^d and proves that quantum anomalies vanish—specifically for odd loops when d=1d'=1 and entirely when d>1d'>1—thereby enabling the construction of a factorization algebra structure for their quantum observables.

Central limit theorem for the determinantal point process with the confluent hypergeometric kernel

This paper establishes a central limit theorem for additive functionals of the determinantal point process with the confluent hypergeometric kernel as the scaling parameter RR tends to infinity, proving their convergence to a Gaussian distribution with a quantitative bound on the Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance derived from an exact identity for multiplicative functionals.

Gessel-Type Expansion for the Circular β\beta-Ensemble and Central Limit Theorem for the Sine-β\beta Process for β2\beta\le 2

This paper establishes a Gessel-type expansion in Jack polynomials for multiplicative functionals in the circular β\beta-ensemble, which enables the proof of Szegő-type limit theorems for β2\beta \le 2 and a Soshnikov-type central limit theorem for the sine-β\beta process across the full H1/2H^{1/2} regularity class.

Generalised 4d Partition Functions and Modular Differential Equations

This paper establishes the equivalence between generalised Schur partition functions of 4d N=2\mathcal{N}=2 $USp(2N)$ gauge theories and vector-valued modular forms by proving they satisfy specific modular linear differential equations, while also proposing extensions and conjectures linking these functions to quantum monodromy traces and 2d rational conformal field theory characters.

Why the Bethe Ansatz Works: A Structural Explanation via Interaction Propagation

This paper provides a structural explanation for the success and failure of the Bethe Ansatz by identifying interaction propagation as the governing mechanism, where exact solvability arises when propagation terminates finitely without encountering structural boundaries, while its breakdown occurs when such boundaries generate irreducible interaction data that prevent finite factorization.
