Motivated by Hilberts 16th problem we discuss the probabilities of topological features of a system of random homogeneous polynomials. The distribution for the polynomials is the Kostlan distribution. The topological features we consider are type-$W$ singular loci. This is a term that we introduce and that is defined by a list of equalities and inequalities on the derivatives of the polynomials. In technical terms a type-$W$ singular locus is the set of points where the jet of the Kostlan polynomials belongs to a semialgebraic subset $W$ of the jet space, which we require to be invariant under orthogonal change of variables. For instance, the zero set of polynomial functions or the set of critical points fall under this definition. We will show that, with overwhelming probability, the type-$W$ singular locus of a Kostlan polynomial is ambient isotopic to that of a polynomial of lower degree. As a crucial result, this implies that complicated topological configurations are rare. Our results extend earlier results from Diatta and Lerario who considered the special case of the zero set of a single polynomial. Furthermore, for a given polynomial function $p$ we provide a deterministic bound for the radius of the ball in the space of differentiable functions with center $p$, in which the $W$-singularity structure is constant.

This work develops a quantitative homogenization theory for random suspensions of rigid particles in a steady Stokes flow, and completes recent qualitative results. More precisely, we establish a large-scale regularity theory for this Stokes problem, and we prove moment bounds for the associated correctors and optimal estimates on the homogenization error; the latter further requires a quantitative ergodicity assumption on the random suspension. Compared to the corresponding quantitative homogenization theory for divergence-form linear elliptic equations, substantial difficulties arise from the analysis of the fluid incompressibility and the particle rigidity constraints. Our analysis further applies to the problem of stiff inclusions in (compressible or incompressible) linear elasticity and in electrostatics; it is also new in those cases, even in the periodic setting.
We combine recently developed intersection theory for non-reductive geometric invariant theoretic quotients with equivariant localisation to prove a formula for Thom polynomials of Morin singularities. These formulas use only toric combinatorics of certain partition polyhedra, and our new approach circumvents the poorly understood Borel geometry of existing models.
We propose the novel augmented Gaussian random field (AGRF), which is a universal framework incorporating the data of observable and derivatives of any order. Rigorous theory is established. We prove that under certain conditions, the observable and its derivatives of any order are governed by a single Gaussian random field, which is the aforementioned AGRF. As a corollary, the statement ``the derivative of a Gaussian process remains a Gaussian process is validated, since the derivative is represented by a part of the AGRF. Moreover, a computational method corresponding to the universal AGRF framework is constructed. Both noiseless and noisy scenarios are considered. Formulas of the posterior distributions are deduced in a nice closed form. A significant advantage of our computational method is that the universal AGRF framework provides a natural way to incorporate arbitrary order derivatives and deal with missing data. We use four numerical examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the computational method. The numerical examples are composite function, damped harmonic oscillator, Korteweg-De Vries equation, and Burgers equation.
Let $xi$ be a non-constant real-valued random variable with finite support, and let $M_{n}(xi)$ denote an $ntimes n$ random matrix with entries that are independent copies of $xi$. For $xi$ which is not uniform on its support, we show that begin{align*} mathbb{P}[M_{n}(xi)text{ is singular}] &= mathbb{P}[text{zero row or column}] + (1+o_n(1))mathbb{P}[text{two equal (up to sign) rows or columns}], end{align*} thereby confirming a folklore conjecture. As special cases, we obtain: (1) For $xi = text{Bernoulli}(p)$ with fixed $p in (0,1/2)$, [mathbb{P}[M_{n}(xi)text{ is singular}] = 2n(1-p)^{n} + (1+o_n(1))n(n-1)(p^2 + (1-p)^2)^{n},] which determines the singularity probability to two asymptotic terms. Previously, no result of such precision was available in the study of the singularity of random matrices. (2) For $xi = text{Bernoulli}(p)$ with fixed $p in (1/2,1)$, [mathbb{P}[M_{n}(xi)text{ is singular}] = (1+o_n(1))n(n-1)(p^2 + (1-p)^2)^{n}.] Previously, only the much weaker upper bound of $(sqrt{p} + o_n(1))^{n}$ was known due to the work of Bourgain-Vu-Wood. For $xi$ which is uniform on its support: (1) We show that begin{align*} mathbb{P}[M_{n}(xi)text{ is singular}] &= (1+o_n(1))^{n}mathbb{P}[text{two rows or columns are equal}]. end{align*} (2) Perhaps more importantly, we provide a sharp analysis of the contribution of the `compressible part of the unit sphere to the lower tail of the smallest singular value of $M_{n}(xi)$.
We introduce a family of rings of symmetric functions depending on an infinite sequence of parameters. A distinguished basis of such a ring is comprised by analogues of the Schur functions. The corresponding structure coefficients are polynomials in
the parameters which we call the Littlewood-Richardson polynomials. We give a combinatorial rule for their calculation by modifying an earlier result of B. Sagan and the author. The new rule provides a formula for these polynomials which is manifestly positive in the sense of W. Graham. We apply this formula for the calculation of the product of equivariant Schubert classes on Grassmannians which implies a stability property of the structure coefficients. The first manifestly positive formula for such an expansion was given by A. Knutson and T. Tao by using combinatorics of puzzles while the stability property was not apparent from that formula. We also use the Littlewood-Richardson polynomials to describe the multiplication rule in the algebra of the Casimir elements for the general linear Lie algebra in the basis of the quantum immanants constructed by A. Okounkov and G. Olshanski.
