The 'Second Shift' Is Not Why Women Avoid News
Women are more likely than men to avoid political and economic news, but the reasons for this behaviour are linked less to structural inequality or family-related stress than to personal attitudes and the emotional perception of news content. This conclusion was reached by HSE researchers after analysing data from a large-scale survey of more than 10,000 residents across 61 regions of Russia. The study findings have been published in Woman in Russian Society.

Tits-type alternative for certain groups acting on algebraic surfaces

Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society. 2023. Vol. 151. No. 7. P. 2813–2829.
Arzhantsev I., Zaidenberg M.

According to a theorem of Cantat [Ann. of Math. (2) 174 (2011), pp. 299–340] and Urech [J. Reine Angew. Math. 770 (2021), pp. 27–57], an analog of the classical Tits alternative holds for the group of birational automorphisms of a compact complex Kähler surface. We established in Arzhantsev and Zaidenberg [Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN 2022 (2022), pp. 8162–8195] the following Tits-type alternative: if X is a toric affine variety and G⊂Aut⁡(X) is a subgroup generated by a finite set of unipotent subgroups normalized by the acting torus then either G contains a nonabelian free subgroup or G is a unipotent affine algebraic group. In the present paper we extend the latter result to any group G of automorphisms of a complex affine surface generated by a finite collection of unipotent algebraic subgroups. It occurs that either G contains a nonabelian free subgroup or G is a metabelian unipotent algebraic group.

Селянин Ф. И., Journal of Dynamical and Control Systems 2026 Vol. 32 No. 2 P. 1–16
A B-facet is a lattice -dimensional polytope in the positive octant  with a positive normal covector, such that every -dimensional simplex with vertices in it is a B-simplex (i.e., a pyramid of height one with base on a coordinate hyperplane). B-facets were introduced in [2] in the context of the monodromy conjecture. In this paper, we complete the ...

In this paper, we find an upper bound for the first Steklov eigenvalue for a surface of revolution with boundary consisting of two spheres of different radii. Moreover, we prove that, in some cases, this boundary is sharp. ...

On smooth Fano threefolds with coregularity zero
Жакупов О. Б., European Journal of Mathematics 2025 Vol. 11 Article 84
We provide examples of smooth three-dimensional Fano complete intersections of degree 2, 4, 6, and 8 that have absolute coregularity 0. Considering the main theorem of Avilov, Loginov, and Przyjalkowski (CNTP 18:506–577, 2024) on the remaining 101 families of smooth Fano threefolds, our result implies that each family of smooth Fano threefolds has an element of absolute ...

2-Elliptic Periodic Orbits near a Nonsimple Homoclinic Tangency in Four-Dimensional Symplectic Maps
Gonchenko S., Lerman L., Turaev D., Regular and Chaotic Dynamics 2026 Vol. 31 No. 3 P. 349–369
We show that bifurcations of four-dimensional symplectic diffeomorphisms with a quadratic homoclinic tangency to a saddle periodic orbit with real multipliers produce 2-elliptic periodic orbits if the tangency is not partially hyperbolic. We show that a normal form for the rescaled first-return maps near such tangency is given by a four-dimensional symplectic H´enonlike map and study bifurcations of the ...

Bibliometric Analysis by Network Models
Aleskerov F. T., Khutorskaya O., Stepochkina A. et al., Springer, 2026.
The book contains new models of bibliometric analysis based on centrality measures in network analysis, pattern analysis and stability analysis. A distinctive feature of these centrality measures is that they account for the parameters of vertices and group influence of vertices to a vertex. This reveals specific groups of publications, authors, terms, journals and affiliations ...

Neural-network maps for two-parameter modeling of bistability and codimension-two bifurcations in two-dimensional flow dynamical systems
Kuptsov P., Panyushev A., Stankevich N., Chaos 2026 Vol. 36 No. 5 Article 053138
We develop a machine-learning approach to reproduce the behavior of two versions of the van der Pol oscillator exhibiting a subcritical Andronov–Hopf bifurcation, with or without a codimension-2 Bautin point. We construct a neural-network model that functions as a recur rent map and train it on short segments of oscillator trajectories. The results show that, ...

Bifurcations and Structural Stability of Generic PC-HC Families
Dorovskiy A., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.
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. ...

The Sobolev space W_2^{1/2}: Simultaneous improvement of functions by a homeomorphism of the circle
Lebedev V., Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications 2026 Vol. 563 No. 2 Article 130787
It is known that for every continuous real-valued  function $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T=\mathbb R/2\pi\mathbb Z$ there exists a  change of variable, i.e., a self-homeomorphism $h$ of $\mathbb T$, such that  the superposition $f\circ h$ is in the Sobolev space $W_2^{1/2}(\mathbb T)$.  We obtain new results on simultaneous improvement of functions by a single  change of variable in relation ...

Игры на сетях с линейным наилучшим ответом: модели и методы управления
Petrov I., Автоматика и телемеханика 2026 № 6 С. 82–118
Системам связанных агентов и сетевому управлению посвящено большое число отечественных и зарубежных исследований. Исторически, наибольший интерес в теории управления возникал к усредняющим системам и, в частности, к задаче консенсуса. Однако сетевое взаимодействие может характеризоваться более специфическими функциями, отражающими зависимость от действий соседей по сети, что особенно явно проявляется в моделях стратегического взаимодействия на сети, которое ...

We consider a plane wave, a radiation solution, and the sum of these solutions (total solution) for the Helmholtz equation in an exterior region in Rd, d ⩾ 2. In this region, we consider a hyperplane X with sufficiently large distance s from the origin in Rd. We give two-point local formulas for approximate recovering the radiation ...

Multivariate Newton interpolation in downward closed spaces reaches the optimal Bernstein–Walsh approximation rate
Hecht M., Hofmann P., Wicaksono D. et al., IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis 2026 Vol. 00 P. 1–30
Recent advances in Bernstein—Walsh theory have extended Bernstein’s Theorem to multiple dimensions, stating that a multivariate function can be approximated with a geometric rate in a downward-closed polynomial space if and only if it is analytic in a generalized Bernstein polyellipse. To compute approximations of this class of functions—which we term Bos–Levenberg–Trefethen–(BLT) functions—we extend the ...

Weighted Chernoff Information and Optimal Loss Exponent in Context-Sensitive Hypothesis Testing
Kelbert M., Kalimulina E. Y., Entropy 2026 Vol. 28 Article 536
We study binary hypothesis testing for i.i.d. observations under a multiplicative context weight. For the optimal weighted total loss, defined as the sum of weighted type-I and typeII losses, we prove the logarithmic asymptotic L∗n = exp{−nDwC (P,Q) + o(n)}, n →∞, where Dw C is the weighted Chernoff information. The single-letter form of the exponent relies on ...

Finite abelian groups acting on rationally connected threefolds II: groups of K3 type

We study finite abelian groups acting on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We concentrate on the groups of K3 type, that is, abelian extensions by a cyclic group of groups that faithfully act on a K3 surface. In particular, if a finite abelian group faithfully acts on a threefold preserving a K3 surface (with at worst ...

On conjugacy of additive actions in the affine Cremona group
Arzhantsev I., Quaestiones Mathematicae 2024 Vol. 47 No. 9 P. 1767 –1774
An additive action on an irreducible algebraic variety X  is an effective action with an open orbit of the vector group . Any two additive actions on X are conjugate by a birational automorphism of X. We prove that, if X is the projective space, the conjugating element can be chosen in the affine Cremona group and it is given by so-called basic polynomials ...

We consider the Berglund–Hübsch–Henningson–Takahashi duality of Landau–Ginzburg orbifolds with a symmetry group generated by some diagonal symmetries and some permutations of variables. We study the orbifold Euler characteristics, the orbifold monodromy zeta functions and the orbifold E-functions of such dual pairs. We conjecture that we get a mirror symmetry between these invariants even on each ...
