Size-Location Correlation for Set-Valued Processes: Theory, Estimation, and Laws of Large Numbers under ρ\rho-Mixing

This paper introduces a variational framework based on the even-odd decomposition of support functions to define geometrically interpretable size-location correlation measures for set-valued processes, establishing their statistical properties under ρ\rho-mixing and enabling the analysis of dependence structures that are inaccessible to traditional point-based or selection-based methods.

Agentic Neurosymbolic Collaboration for Mathematical Discovery: A Case Study in Combinatorial Design

This paper presents a neurosymbolic collaboration between an LLM-powered agent, symbolic computation tools, and human researchers that successfully discovered and formally verified a new tight lower bound on the imbalance of Latin squares for the case n1(mod3)n \equiv 1 \pmod{3}, demonstrating the potential of AI-human partnerships in pure mathematical discovery.

Flexibility of Codimension One C1,θC^{1,\theta} Isometric Immersions

This paper improves the known threshold for the flexibility of C1,θC^{1,\theta} isometric immersions of nn-dimensional Riemannian metrics into Rn+1\mathbb{R}^{n+1} by proving that any short immersion can be approximated by such immersions for θ<1/(1+2(n1))\theta < 1/(1+2(n-1)) when n3n \geq 3, utilizing a refined convex integration scheme with enhanced iterative integration by parts.
