• THE CONORMAL TORUS IS A COMPLETE KNOT INVARIANT

• Authors: VIVEK SHENDE
Abstract: We use microlocal sheaf theory to show that knots can only have Legendrian isotopic conormal tori if they themselves are isotopic or mirror images.

• CONTINUITY OF UNIVERSALLY MEASURABLE HOMOMORPHISMS

• Authors: CHRISTIAN ROSENDAL
Abstract: Answering a longstanding problem originating in Christensen’s seminal work on Haar null sets [Math. Scand. 28 (1971), 124–128; Israel J. Math. 13 (1972), 255–260; Topology and Borel Structure. Descriptive Topology and Set Theory with Applications to Functional Analysis and Measure Theory, North-Holland Mathematics Studies, 10 (Notas de Matematica, No. 51). (North-Holland Publishing Co., Amsterdam–London; American Elsevier Publishing Co., Inc., New York, 1974), iii+133 pp], we show that a universally measurable homomorphism between Polish groups is automatically continuous. Using our general analysis of continuity of group homomorphisms, this result is used to calibrate the strength of the existence of a discontinuous homomorphism between Polish groups. In particular, it is shown that, modulo $\text{ZF}+\text{DC}$ , the existence of a discontinuous homomorphism between Polish groups implies that the Hamming graph on $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ has finite chromatic number.

• IGUSA’S CONJECTURE FOR EXPONENTIAL SUMS: OPTIMAL ESTIMATES FOR
NONRATIONAL SINGULARITIES

• Authors: RAF CLUCKERS; MIRCEA MUSTAŢĂ, KIEN HUU NGUYEN
Abstract: We prove an upper bound on the log canonical threshold of a hypersurface that satisfies a certain power condition and use it to prove several generalizations of Igusa’s conjecture on exponential sums, with the log canonical threshold in the exponent of the estimates. We show that this covers optimally all situations of the conjectures for nonrational singularities by comparing the log canonical threshold with a local notion of the motivic oscillation index.

AND $\mathsf{CohFTs}$ ASSOCIATED TO LOCAL CURVES

• Authors: RAHUL PANDHARIPANDE; HSIAN-HUA TSENG
Abstract: We study the higher genus equivariant Gromov–Witten theory of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points of $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ . Since the equivariant quantum cohomology, computed by Okounkov and Pandharipande [Invent. Math. 179 (2010), 523–557], is semisimple, the higher genus theory is determined by an $\mathsf{R}$ -matrix via the Givental–Teleman classification of Cohomological Field Theories (CohFTs). We uniquely specify the required $\mathsf{R}$ -matrix by explicit data in degree $0$ . As a consequence, we lift the basic triangle of equivalences relating the equivariant quantum cohomology of the Hilbert scheme $\mathsf{Hilb}^{n}(\mathbb{C}^{2})$ and the Gromov–Witten/Donaldson–Thomas correspondence for 3-fold theories of local curves to a triangle of equivalences in all higher genera. The proof uses the analytic continuation of the fundamental solution of the QDE of the Hilbert scheme of points determined by Okounkov and Pandharipande [Transform. Groups 15 (2010), 965–982]. The GW/DT edge of the triangle in higher genus concerns new CohFTs defined by varying the 3-fold local curve in the moduli space of stable curves. The equivariant orbifold Gromov–Witten theory of the symmetric product $\mathsf{Sym}^{n}(\mathbb{C}^{2})$ is also shown to be equivalent to the theories of the triangle in all genera. The result establishes a complete case of the crepant resolution conjecture [Bryan and Graber, Algebraic Geometry–Seattle 2005, Part 1, Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics, 80 (American Mathematical Society, Providence, RI, 2009), 23–42; Coates et al., Geom. Topol. 13 (2009), 2675–2744; Coates & Ruan, Ann. Inst. Fourier (Grenoble) 63 (2013), 431–478].

• A PATCHWORK QUILT SEWN FROM BROWNIAN FABRIC: REGULARITY OF POLYMER WEIGHT
PROFILES IN BROWNIAN LAST PASSAGE PERCOLATION

• Authors: ALAN HAMMOND
Abstract: In last passage percolation models lying in the Kardar–Parisi–Zhang (KPZ) universality class, the energy of long energy-maximizing paths may be studied as a function of the paths’ pair of endpoint locations. Scaled coordinates may be introduced, so that these maximizing paths, or polymers, now cross unit distances with unit-order fluctuations, and have scaled energy, or weight, of unit order. In this article, we consider Brownian last passage percolation in these scaled coordinates. In the narrow wedge case, when one endpoint of such polymers is fixed, say at $(0,0)\in \mathbb{R}^{2}$ , and the other is varied horizontally, over $(z,1)$ , $z\in \mathbb{R}$ , the polymer weight profile as a function of $z\in \mathbb{R}$ is locally Brownian; indeed, by Hammond [‘Brownian regularity for the Airy line ensemble, and multi-polymer watermelons in Brownian last passage percolation’, Preprint (2016), arXiv:1609.02971, Theorem 2.11 and Proposition 2.5], the law of the profile is known to enjoy a very strong comparison to Brownian bridge on a given compact interval, with a Radon–Nikodym derivative in every $L^{p}$ space for $p\in (1,\infty )$ , uniformly in the scaling parameter, provided that an affine adjustment is made to the weight profile before the comparison is made. In this article, we generalize this narrow wedge case and study polymer weight profiles begun from a very general initial condition. We prove that the profiles on a compact interval resemble Brownian bridge in a uniform sense: splitting the compact interval into a random but controlled number of patches, the profile in each patch after affine adjustment has a Radon–Nikodym derivative that lies in every $L^{p}$ space for $p\in (1,3)$ . This result is proved by harnessing an understanding of the uniform coalescence structure in the field of polymers developed in Hammond [‘Exponents governing the rarity of disjoint polymers in Brownian last passage percolation’, Preprint (2017

• THE SET OF QUANTUM CORRELATIONS IS NOT CLOSED

• Authors: WILLIAM SLOFSTRA
Abstract: We construct a linear system nonlocal game which can be played perfectly using a limit of finite-dimensional quantum strategies, but which cannot be played perfectly on any finite-dimensional Hilbert space, or even with any tensor-product strategy. In particular, this shows that the set of (tensor-product) quantum correlations is not closed. The constructed nonlocal game provides another counterexample to the ‘middle’ Tsirelson problem, with a shorter proof than our previous paper (though at the loss of the universal embedding theorem). We also show that it is undecidable to determine if a linear system game can be played perfectly with a finite-dimensional strategy, or a limit of finite-dimensional quantum strategies.
