Sample-Based Consistency in Infinite-Dimensional Conic-Constrained Stochastic Optimization

This paper establishes the theoretical consistency of sample average approximation and Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions for stochastic optimization problems with almost sure conic constraints in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces, providing a rigorous foundation for numerical methods across diverse applications such as operator learning, optimal transport, and PDE-constrained optimization.

Existence and Uniqueness of Physically Correct Hydraulic States in Water Distribution Systems -- A theoretical analysis on the solvability of non-linear systems of equations in the context of water distribution systems

This paper provides rigorous theoretical guarantees for the existence and uniqueness of physically correct hydraulic states in water distribution systems by solving the underlying non-linear equations, thereby establishing a foundational basis for the reliability of hydraulic simulators and extending beyond previous approximation-based observability analyses.

Ordinarization numbers of numerical semigroups

This paper investigates the enumeration of numerical semigroups of genus gg with a fixed ordinarization number rr by interpreting the problem as counting integer points in rational polyhedral cones using Ehrhart theory, while deriving specific formulas and geometric characterizations for cases involving ordinarization numbers 1 and 2, two-generated semigroups, supersymmetric semigroups, and interval-generated semigroups.

Topological constraints on clean Lagrangian intersections from Q\mathbb{Q}-valued augmentations

This paper proves that for knots containing specific components like the (2,q)(2,q)-torus knot or the figure-eight knot, no compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphism can move their conormal bundles to intersect the zero section cleanly along an unknot, a result established by deriving a unique algebraic constraint on the augmentation variety over the rational numbers using symplectic field theory.
