In this paper we study the free boundary regularity for almost-minimizers of the functional J(u) = integral(Omega) vertical bar del u(x)vertical bar(2) + q(+)(2)(x)chi({u > 0}) (x) + q(-)(2)(x)chi({u<0}) (x) dx where q(+/-) is an element of L-infinity(Omega). Almost-minimizers satisfy a variational inequality but not a PDE or a monotonicity formula the way minimizers do (see [4], [5], [9], [37]). Nevertheless, using a novel argument which brings together tools from potential theory and geometric measure theory, we succeed in proving that, under a non-degeneracy assumption on q(+/-), the free boundary is uniformly rectifiable. Furthermore, when q- (math) 0, and q+ is Holder continuous we show that the free boundary is almost-everywhere given as the graph of a C-1,C-alpha function (thus extending the results of [4] to almost-minimizers).

SQUARE FUNCTIONS, NONTANGENTIAL LIMITS, AND HARMONIC MEASURE IN CODIMENSION LARGER THAN 1

Guy David, Max Engelstein, Svitlana Mayboroda

Summary: In this paper, the rectifiability of an Ahlfors regular set of arbitrary codimension is characterized by analyzing the behavior of a regularized distance function in the complement of the set. A certain version of the Riesz transform characterization of rectifiability for lower-dimensional sets is established. Additionally, a special situation is uncovered where the regularized distance itself is a solution to a degenerate elliptic operator in the complement of the set E. This leads to precise computation of the harmonic measure of sets associated with this degenerate operator, showing a contrast from the usual setting of codimension 1.

Minimizers for the Thin One-Phase Free Boundary Problem

Max Engelstein, Aapo Kauranen, Marti Prats, Georgios Sakellaris, Yannick Sire

Summary: The study focuses on the one-phase free boundary problem related to minimizing weighted Dirichlet energy and the area of the positivity set of a function. The research demonstrates full regularity of the free boundary in certain dimensions, almost everywhere regularity in arbitrary dimensions, and provides estimates on the singular set of the free boundary. The results are applicable across a range of relevant weights and present a novel approach distinct from standard methods.

Linear optimization on varieties and Chern-Mather classes

Laurentiu G. Maxim, Jose Israel Rodriguez, Botong Wang, Lei Wu

Summary: The paper investigates the relationship between linear optimization degree and geometric structure. By analyzing the geometric structure of the conormal variety of an affine variety, the Chern-Mather classes of the given variety can be completely determined. Additionally, the paper shows that these bidegrees coincide with the linear optimization degrees of generic affine sections.

Matrices of linear forms of constant rank from vector bundles on projective spaces

Laurent Laurent, Rosa M. Miro-Roig

Summary: This paper discusses the problem of constructing matrices of linear forms of constant rank by focusing on vector bundles on projective spaces. It introduces important examples of classical Steiner bundles and Drezet bundles, and uses the classification of globally generated vector bundles to describe completely the indecomposable matrices of constant rank up to six.

A Lie conformal superalgebra and duality of representations for E(4,4)

Nicoletta Cantarini, Fabrizio Caselli, Victor Kac

Summary: In this paper, we construct a duality functor in the category of continuous representations to study the Lie superalgebra E(4, 4). By constructing a specific type of Lie conformal superalgebra, we obtain that E(4, 4) is its annihilation algebra. Furthermore, we also obtain an explicit realization of E(4, 4) on a supermanifold in the process of studying.

Decay rates of convergence for Fokker-Planck equations with confining drift

Alessio Porretta

Summary: This article discusses Fokker-Planck equations driven by Levy processes in the entire Euclidean space, under the influence of confining drifts, similar to the classical Ornstein-Ulhenbeck model. A new PDE method is introduced to obtain exponential or sub-exponential decay rates of zero average solutions as time goes to infinity, under certain diffusivity conditions on the Levy process, including the fractional Laplace operator as a model example. The approach relies on long-time oscillation estimates of the adjoint problem and applies to both local and nonlocal diffusions, as well as strongly or weakly confining drifts.

Conformal transformations and integrable mechanical billiards

Airi Takeuchi, Lei Zhao

Summary: In this article, we explore the connection between several integrable mechanical billiards in the plane through conformal transformations. We discuss the equivalence of free billiards and central force problems, as well as the correspondence between integrable Hooke-Kepler billiards. We also investigate the integrability of Kepler billiards and Stark billiards, and the relationship between billiard systems and Euler's two-center problems.

Counting conjectures and e-local structures in finite reductive groups

Damiano Rossi

Summary: In this study, we prove new results in generalised Harish-Chandra theory by providing a description of the Brauer-Lusztig blocks using the p-adic cohomology of Deligne-Lusztig varieties. We then propose new conjectures for finite reductive groups by considering geometric analogues of the p-local structures. Our conjectures coincide with the counting conjectures for large primes, thanks to a connection established between p-structures and their geometric counterparts. Finally, we simplify our conjectures by reducing them to the verification of Clifford theoretic properties.
