Dubrovin-Zhang hierarchy for the Hodge integrals

Communications in Number Theory and Physics. 2015. Vol. 9. No. 2. P. 239–271.

In this paper we prove that the generating series of the Hodge integrals over the moduli space of stable curves is a solution of a certain deformation of the KdV hierarchy. This hierarchy is constructed in the framework of the Dubrovin-Zhang theory of the hierarchies of the topological type. It occurs that our deformation of the KdV hierarchy is closely related to the hierarchy of the Intermediate Long Wave equation.

Pairings on the algebra of Laurent series over a ring

Levashev V., / Series arXiv "math". 2026. No. 2609.06010.

We prove that continuous A-bilinear pairings on the ring of Laurent series that are invariant under continuous automorphisms coincide, up to a constant, with the pairing given by the residue of a differential form over any commutative associative ring with identity. ...

Iterative construction of the R-matrices in arbitrary dimensions

Pyatov P. N., Pivovarov P. A., / Series math "arxiv.org". 2026. No. 2609.06274.

We investigate a special ansats that allows for an iterative solution of the constant Yang-Baxter equation. Testing this ansatz, we construct four sequences of the constant R-matrices. In each sequence the R-matrices act on the tensor squares of vector spaces of linearly growing dimensions. Each R-matrix also depends on a single complex parameter. By analyzing the ...

On static manifolds with boundary admitting a nowhere-vanishing static potential

Medvedev V., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.

We study complete static manifolds with boundary admitting a nowhere-vanishing static potential. Our main result shows that, under a natural lower bound relating the scalar curvature and the boundary mean curvature, a simple static manifold with boundary must in fact have positive scalar curvature, negative boundary mean curvature, and be compact; we also obtain explicit ...

Vague stimulating ideas, images and metaphors in scientific thinking: researchers' work with horizons of unclear knowledge

Poddiakov A., / Series Social Science Research Network "Social Science Research Network". 2026. No. 7437658.

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce ...

On phase-lock area parquet in a special slow-fast limit of model of Josephson junction.

Glutsyuk A., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.

B.Josephson (Nobel Prize, 1973) predicted a tunnelling effect for a system of two superconductors separated by a narrow dielectric (such a system is called Josephson junction): existence of a supercurrent through it and equations governing it. The overdamped Josephson junction is modeled by the family of differential equations on the 2-torus, dθdτ=1ω(cosθ+B+Acosτ), which is known as ...

Infinitely many graph manifolds with unique geometrical piece that admit arbitrarily many Anosov flows

Pochinka O., Shmukler V., / Series math.RT "arXiv:1808.06395 [math.RT]". 2026.

Anosov flows have a long and rich history, firstly motivated by the study of geodesic flows in negative curvature surface by Anosov and Sinai. Not every closed manifold admits an Anosov flow for well-known reasons: the fundamental group of a 3-manifold M admitting an Anosov flow must have exponential growth, and M must be universally covered by R3. Nevertheless, there ...

New bound on S1× S2-setting Bell locality of a nonseparable Werner state

Loubenets E. R., / Series arxiv.org "quant-ph". 2026. No. 2607.18050.

In many quantum applications it is important to know whether or not a Bell nonlocal two-qudit state exhibits its nonlocality under correlation scenarios with some given numbers S1,S2≥1 of generalized quantum measurements at two sites. In the present article, we find analytically a new general locality condition sufficient for a nonseparable Werner state with a ...

On functional equations for Chow polylogarithms

Bolbachan V., / Series math "arxiv.org". 2024.

Chow polylogarithms are some special functions arising in explicit description of the Beilinson regulator map. The most interesting functional equation for this function reflects its vanishing on the boundary in the Bloch's cycle complex. We show that this functional equation formally follows from more simple ones, namely skew-symmetry, functoriality and multiplicativity. To prove this, we study ...

Statistical inference based on band-limited kernels: Rational-infinitely divisible distributions and beyond

Panov V., Ryabchenko A., / Series arXiv "stat.ME". 2026. No. 2607.05048.

This paper investigates the problem of statistical inference for a mixture distribution consisting of a discrete and a continuous component, with a particular focus on the class of rational-infinitely divisible distributions. We consider non-parametric estimation of both components of the mixture as well as the quasi-L{é}vy measure, assuming that the mixture belongs to the class ...

Strong Approximations for Markov Chains Weakly Converging to Diffusions

Konakov V., Kucher D., Mammen E., / Series arXiv "math". 2026. No. 2606.11142v1.

In this paper, we construct strong approximations for discrete-time Markov chains weakly converging to continuous diffusion processes, as well as for their perturbed counterparts. Under the assumption of bounded coefficients, we construct closely coupled versions of these processes on a shared probability space. In particular, for both non-degenerate and degenerate cases, we maximize the probability ...

In this paper the structural stability of generic families of vector fields of the PC-HC class on the two-dimensional sphere is proved. A classification of these families up to moderate equivalence in neighborhoods of their large bifurcation supports is presented, based on such invariants as the configuration and the characteristic set. The realization lemma is proved. ...

On the minimum number of maximal distance-k independent sets in trees

Taletskii D., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.

A vertex subset of a graph is called a \textit{distance-$k$ independent set} if the distance between any two of its distinct vertices is at least $k + 1$. For all $n,k \geq 1$, we determine the minimum possible number of inclusion-wise maximal distance-$k$ independent sets among all $n$-vertex trees. It equals~$n$ if $n \leq k ...

We deal with the global in time weak solutions to the 1D compressible Navier-Stokes system of equations for large discontinuous initial data and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions of three standard types. We prove the Lipschitz-type continuous dependence of the solution $(\eta,u,\theta)$, in a norm slightly stronger than $L^{2,\infty}(Q)\times L^2(Q)\times L^2(Q)$, on the initial data $(\eta^0,u^0,e^0)$ in a ...

We define the double ramification hierarchy associated to an F-cohomological field theory and use this construction to prove that the principal hierarchy of any semisimple (homogeneous) flat F-manifold possesses a (homogeneous) integrable dispersive deformation at all orders in the dispersion parameter. The proof is based on the reconstruction of an F-CohFT starting from a semisimple ...

Integrals of $\psi$-classes over double ramification cycles

DR-cycles are certain cycles on the moduli space of curves. Intuitively, they parametrize curves that allow a map to the complex projective line with some specified ramification profile over two points. They are known to be tautological classes, but in general there is no known expression in terms of standard tautological classes. In this paper, ...

The relations in the tautological ring of the moduli space $M_g$ of nonsingular curves conjectured by Faber-Zagier in 2000 and extended to the moduli space $\overline{M}_{g,n}$ of stable curves by Pixton in 2012 are based upon two hypergeometric series $A$ and $B$. The question of the geometric origins of these series has been solved in at least two ways (via the Frobenius ...
