- DEFORMATION CONDITIONS FOR PSEUDOREPRESENTATIONS
Authors: PRESTON WAKE; CARL WANG-ERICKSON
Abstract: Given a property of representations satisfying a basic stability condition, Ramakrishna developed a variant of Mazur’s Galois deformation theory for representations with that property. We introduce an axiomatic definition of pseudorepresentations with such a property. Among other things, we show that pseudorepresentations with a property enjoy a good deformation theory, generalizing Ramakrishna’s theory to pseudorepresentations.

Abstract: By assuming the endoscopic classification of automorphic representations on inner forms of unitary groups, which is currently work in progress by Kaletha, Minguez, Shin, and White, we bound the growth of cohomology in congruence towers of locally symmetric spaces associated to
$U(n,1)$ . In the case of lattices arising from Hermitian forms, we expect that the growth exponents we obtain are sharp in all degrees.

$G/H$ such that the number of

- A PROOF OF ANDREWS’ CONJECTURE ON PARTITIONS WITH NO SHORT SEQUENCES
Authors: DANIEL M. KANE; ROBERT C. RHOADES
Abstract: Our main result establishes Andrews’ conjecture for the asymptotic of the generating function for the number of integer partitions of
$n$ without 
$k$ consecutive parts. The methods we develop are applicable in obtaining asymptotics for stochastic processes that avoid patterns; as a result they yield asymptotics for the number of partitions that avoid patterns.Holroyd, Liggett, and Romik, in connection with certain bootstrap percolation models, introduced the study of partitions without 
$k$ consecutive parts. Andrews showed that when 
$k=2$ , the generating function for these partitions is a mixed-mock modular form and, thus, has modularity properties which can be utilized in the study of this generating function. For 
$k>2$ , the asymptotic properties of the generating functions have proved more difficult to obtain. Using 
$q$ -series identities and the 
$k=2$ case as evidence, Andrews stated a conjecture for the asymptotic behavior. Extensive computational evidence for the conjecture in the case 
$k=3$ was given by Zagier.This paper improved upon early approaches to this problem by identifying and overcoming two sources of error. Since the writing of this paper, a more precise asymptotic result was established by Bringmann, Kane, Parry, and Rhoades. That approach uses very different methods.

- GOLDFELD’S CONJECTURE AND CONGRUENCES BETWEEN HEEGNER POINTS
Authors: DANIEL KRIZ; CHAO LI
Abstract: Given an elliptic curve
$E$ over 
$\mathbb{Q}$ , a celebrated conjecture of Goldfeld asserts that a positive proportion of its quadratic twists should have analytic rank 0 (respectively 1). We show that this conjecture holds whenever 
$E$ has a rational 3-isogeny. We also prove the analogous result for the sextic twists of 
$j$ -invariant 0 curves. For a more general elliptic curve 
$E$ , we show that the number of quadratic twists of 
$E$ up to twisting discriminant 
$X$ of analytic rank 0 (respectively 1) is 
$\gg X/\log ^{5/6}X$ , improving the current best general bound toward Goldfeld’s conjecture due to Ono–Skinner (respectively Perelli–Pomykala). To prove these results, we establish a congruence formula between 
$p$ -adic logarithms of Heegner points and apply it in the special cases 
$p=3$ and

- ENLARGED MIXED SHIMURA VARIETIES, BI-ALGEBRAIC SYSTEM AND SOME AX TYPE
TRANSCENDENTAL RESULTS
Authors: ZIYANG GAO
Abstract: We develop a theory of enlarged mixed Shimura varieties, putting the universal vectorial bi-extension defined by Coleman into this framework to study some functional transcendental results of Ax type. We study their bi-algebraic systems, formulate the Ax-Schanuel conjecture and explain its relation with the logarithmic Ax theorem and the Ax-Lindemann theorem which we shall prove. All these bi-algebraic and transcendental results extend their counterparts for mixed Shimura varieties. In the end we briefly discuss the André–Oort and Zilber–Pink type problems for enlarged mixed Shimura varieties.

- SIMPLY CONNECTED, SPINELESS 4-MANIFOLDS
Authors: ADAM SIMON LEVINE; TYE LIDMAN
Abstract: We construct infinitely many compact, smooth 4-manifolds which are homotopy equivalent to
$S^{2}$ but do not admit a spine (that is, a piecewise linear embedding of 
$S^{2}$ that realizes the homotopy equivalence). This is the remaining case in the existence problem for codimension-2 spines in simply connected manifolds. The obstruction comes from the Heegaard Floer 
$d$ invariants.

- CLUSTER STRUCTURES ON HIGHER TEICHMULLER SPACES FOR CLASSICAL GROUPS
Authors: IAN LE
Abstract: Let
$S$ be a surface, 
$G$ a simply connected classical group, and 
$G^{\prime }$ the associated adjoint form of the group. We show that the moduli spaces of framed local systems 
${\mathcal{X}}_{G^{\prime },S}$ and 
${\mathcal{A}}_{G,S}$ , which were constructed by Fock and Goncharov [‘Moduli spaces of local systems and higher Teichmuller theory’, Publ. Math. Inst. Hautes Études Sci.103 (2006), 1–212], have the structure of cluster varieties, and thus together form a cluster ensemble. This simplifies some of the proofs in that paper, and also allows one to quantize higher Teichmuller space, which was previously only possible when 
$G$ was of type 
$A$ .

- RANDOM MATRICES WITH SLOW CORRELATION DECAY
Authors: LÁSZLÓ ERDŐS; TORBEN KRÜGER, DOMINIK SCHRÖDER
Abstract: We consider large random matrices with a general slowly decaying correlation among its entries. We prove universality of the local eigenvalue statistics and optimal local laws for the resolvent away from the spectral edges, generalizing the recent result of Ajanki et al. [‘Stability of the matrix Dyson equation and random matrices with correlations’, Probab. Theory Related Fields173(1–2) (2019), 293–373] to allow slow correlation decay and arbitrary expectation. The main novel tool is a systematic diagrammatic control of a multivariate cumulant expansion.

$F$ -signature dropping and Hilbert–Kunz multiplicity increasing under birational maps without these hypotheses.

- VARIETIES OF SIGNATURE TENSORS
Authors: CARLOS AMÉNDOLA; PETER FRIZ, BERND STURMFELS
Abstract: The signature of a parametric curve is a sequence of tensors whose entries are iterated integrals. This construction is central to the theory of rough paths in stochastic analysis. It is examined here through the lens of algebraic geometry. We introduce varieties of signature tensors for both deterministic paths and random paths. For the former, we focus on piecewise linear paths, on polynomial paths, and on varieties derived from free nilpotent Lie groups. For the latter, we focus on Brownian motion and its mixtures.

- FORCING QUASIRANDOMNESS WITH TRIANGLES
Authors: CHRISTIAN REIHER; MATHIAS SCHACHT
Abstract: We study forcing pairs for quasirandom graphs. Chung, Graham, and Wilson initiated the study of families
${\mathcal{F}}$ of graphs with the property that if a large graph 
$G$ has approximately homomorphism density 
$p^{e(F)}$ for some fixed 
$p\in (0,1]$ for every 
$F\in {\mathcal{F}}$ , then 
$G$ is quasirandom with density 
$p$ . Such families 
${\mathcal{F}}$ are said to be forcing. Several forcing families were found over the last three decades and characterizing all bipartite graphs 
$F$ such that 
$(K_{2},F)$ is a forcing pair is a well-known open problem in the area of quasirandom graphs, which is closely related to Sidorenko’s conjecture. In fact, most of the known forcing families involve bipartite graphs only.We consider forcing pairs containing the triangle

- OBSTRUCTIONS TO ALGEBRAIZING TOPOLOGICAL VECTOR BUNDLES
Authors: A. ASOK; J. FASEL, M. J. HOPKINS
Abstract: Suppose
$X$ is a smooth complex algebraic variety. A necessary condition for a complex topological vector bundle on 
$X$ (viewed as a complex manifold) to be algebraic is that all Chern classes must be algebraic cohomology classes, that is, lie in the image of the cycle class map. We analyze the question of whether algebraicity of Chern classes is sufficient to guarantee algebraizability of complex topological vector bundles. For affine varieties of dimension 
${\leqslant}3$ , it is known that algebraicity of Chern classes of a vector bundle guarantees algebraizability of the vector bundle. In contrast, we show in dimension 
${\geqslant}4$ that algebraicity of Chern classes is insufficient to guarantee algebraizability of vector bundles. To do this, we construct a new obstruction to algebraizability using Steenrod operations on Chow groups. By means of an explicit example, we observe that our obstruction is nontrivial in general.

- DONALDSON–THOMAS INVARIANTS OF LOCAL ELLIPTIC SURFACES VIA THE
TOPOLOGICAL VERTEX
Authors: JIM BRYAN; MARTIJN KOOL
Abstract: We compute the Donaldson–Thomas invariants of a local elliptic surface with section. We introduce a new computational technique which is a mixture of motivic and toric methods. This allows us to write the partition function for the invariants in terms of the topological vertex. Utilizing identities for the topological vertex proved in Bryan et al. [‘Trace identities for the topological vertex’, Selecta Math. (N.S.)24 (2) (2018), 1527–1548, arXiv:math/1603.05271], we derive product formulas for the partition functions. The connected version of the partition function is written in terms of Jacobi forms. In the special case where the elliptic surface is a K3 surface, we get a derivation of the Katz–Klemm–Vafa formula for primitive curve classes which is independent of the computation of Kawai–Yoshioka.

- GL-EQUIVARIANT MODULES OVER POLYNOMIAL RINGS IN INFINITELY MANY VARIABLES.
II
Authors: STEVEN V SAM; ANDREW SNOWDEN
Abstract: Twisted commutative algebras (tca’s) have played an important role in the nascent field of representation stability. Let
$A_{d}$ be the tca freely generated by 
$d$ indeterminates of degree 1. In a previous paper, we determined the structure of the category of 
$A_{1}$ -modules (which is equivalent to the category of 
$\mathbf{FI}$ -modules). In this paper, we establish analogous results for the category of 
$A_{d}$ -modules, for any 
$d$ . Modules over 
$A_{d}$ are closely related to the structures used by the authors in previous works studying syzygies of Segre and Veronese embeddings, and we hope the results of this paper will eventually lead to improvements on those works. Our results also have implications in asymptotic commutative algebra.

- REGULARIZATION OF NON-NORMAL MATRICES BY GAUSSIAN NOISE—THE BANDED
TOEPLITZ AND TWISTED TOEPLITZ CASES
Authors: ANIRBAN BASAK; ELLIOT PAQUETTE, OFER ZEITOUNI
Abstract: We consider the spectrum of additive, polynomially vanishing random perturbations of deterministic matrices, as follows. Let
$M_{N}$ be a deterministic 
$N\times N$ matrix, and let 
$G_{N}$ be a complex Ginibre matrix. We consider the matrix 
${\mathcal{M}}_{N}=M_{N}+N^{-\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}}G_{N}$ , where 
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}>1/2$ . With 
$L_{N}$ the empirical measure of eigenvalues of 
${\mathcal{M}}_{N}$ , we provide a general deterministic equivalence theorem that ties 
$L_{N}$ to the singular values of 
$z-M_{N}$ , with 
$z\in \mathbb{C}$ . We then compute the limit of 
$L_{N}$ when

- MONOID ACTIONS AND ULTRAFILTER METHODS IN RAMSEY THEORY
Authors: SŁAWOMIR SOLECKI
Abstract: First, we prove a theorem on dynamics of actions of monoids by endomorphisms of semigroups. Second, we introduce algebraic structures suitable for formalizing infinitary Ramsey statements and prove a theorem that such statements are implied by the existence of appropriate homomorphisms between the algebraic structures. We make a connection between the two themes above, which allows us to prove some general Ramsey theorems for sequences. We give a new proof of the Furstenberg–Katznelson Ramsey theorem; in fact, we obtain a version of this theorem that is stronger than the original one. We answer in the negative a question of Lupini on possible extensions of Gowers’ Ramsey theorem.

- ON THE HARD SPHERE MODEL AND SPHERE PACKINGS IN HIGH DIMENSIONS
Authors: MATTHEW JENSSEN; FELIX JOOS, WILL PERKINS
Abstract: We prove a lower bound on the entropy of sphere packings of
$\mathbb{R}^{d}$ of density 
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}(d\cdot 2^{-d})$ . The entropy measures how plentiful such packings are, and our result is significantly stronger than the trivial lower bound that can be obtained from the mere existence of a dense packing. Our method also provides a new, statistical-physics-based proof of the 
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}(d\cdot 2^{-d})$ lower bound on the maximum sphere packing density by showing that the expected packing density of a random configuration from the hard sphere model is at least 
$(1+o_{d}(1))\log (2/\sqrt{3})d\cdot 2^{-d}$ when the ratio of the fugacity parameter to the volume covered by a single sphere is at least 
$3^{-d/2}$ . Such a bound on the sphere packing density was first achieved by Rogers, with subsequent improvements to the leading constant by Davenport and Rogers, Ball, Vance, and Venkatesh.
