Tangent classes of matroids and wonderful compactifications

arXiv:2607. 05835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For every loopless matroid $M$ and every Feichtner--Yuzvinsky building set $\mathcal{G}$ containing the top flat, we construct an integral tangent class $T_{M,\mathcal{G}}^{\mathbb{Z}}\in K_{\mathbb{Z}}(M,\mathcal{G})$; in the realizable case it specializes to the class of the tangent bundle of the corresponding wonderful compactification, it recovers the Hilbert series of the Chow ring through Hirzebruch--Riemann--Roch, and it satisfies the expected Chern-alpha lower bounds.

Solver Agent: an Agentic AI Framework for Theoretical Physics Computations Applied to F-theory Uplifts of O3-planes and S-folds

The paper introduces Solver Agent, an AI framework that uses large language models to perform calculations and proofs in mathematics and theoretical physics, tracking the solution process via a persistent ledger. It applies this framework to study global F‑theory uplifts of Type IIB orientifolds and S‑folds, establishing conditions for Weierstrass models over projective threefolds with terminal ζ_k quotient singularities to yield Ε-factorial elliptically fibered Calabi‑Yau fourfolds. The authors derive fixed‑point contributions to Hodge data and Euler characteristics, demonstrate how these corrections determine localized D3‑brane charges for tadpole cancellation, and illustrate the results with toric hypersurface constructions and methods for four‑form flux analysis in Δ=1 compactifications.

Real-rootedness of the Poincar\'e polynomials of $\overline{\mathcal M}_{0,n}$: an AI-assisted proof

arXiv:2605. 29151v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We prove real-rootedness for the Poincar\'e polynomial \[ P_n(t)=\sum_{i=0}^{n-3} \dim H^{2i}(\overline{\mathcal M}_{0,n};\mathbb{Q})t^i \] of the Deligne--Mumford moduli space $\overline{\mathcal M}_{0,n}$ of stable $n$-pointed rational curves, proving a conjecture of Aluffi--Chen--Marcolli.

Algebraic Invariants of Lightning Self-Attention

The paper investigates the polynomial coefficients of lightning self‑attention, treating them as coordinates of an algebraic variety. In the single‑token case it identifies the coefficient variety as a rank‑constrained Chow‑type variety and derives algebraic equations; for multiple tokens it shows that linear relations reduce the geometry to coefficients involving interactions between distinct tokens, characterized by a common linear factor and a low‑rank condition. The authors provide explicit families of determinantal, Veronese‑type, and Sylvester resultant‑based invariants, and in the rank‑one case give pencil and flattening equations that define the variety set‑theoretically, with small‑dimension computations confirming the theoretical generators.

A solution to the Erd\H{o}s Problem #1040

arXiv:2609. 06050v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For a compact set $K\subset\mathbb{C}$, let $\vartheta(K)$ be the infimum of the planar areas of the unit lemniscates of all monic polynomials with zeros in $K$, allowing arbitrary degree and repeated zeros.

Algebraic Representability as the Limiting Regime of Grokking: An Exactly Solvable Model with Holomorphic Activations

arXiv:2607. 13749v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural networks trained on modular arithmetic exhibit grokking, a delayed transition from memorisation to generalisation known to depend on model capacity: too little and the network memorises slowly or not at all, too much and it generalises almost immediately.
