Conventional self-attention mechanisms incur quadratic complexity, limiting their scalability on long sequences. We introduce FFTNet, an adaptive spectral filtering framework that leverages the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to achieve global token mixing in O(nlog n) time. By transforming inputs into the frequency domain, FFTNet exploits the orthogonality and energy preservation guaranteed by Parseval's theorem to capture long-range dependencies efficiently. A learnable spectral filter and modReLU activation dynamically emphasize salient frequency components, providing a rigorous and adaptive alternative to traditional self-attention. Experiments on the Long Range Arena and ImageNet benchmarks validate our theoretical insights and demonstrate superior performance over fixed Fourier and standard attention models.

Mixed-precision quantization must decide which parts of a model to keep at higher precision. A common premise, shared by sensitivity-based methods such as HAWQ and CoopQ, is that the loss from quantizing a set of layers can be reconstructed from per-layer or pairwise sensitivities measured in isolation. We test this premise at the 4-bit weight-and-activation precisions now being deployed, treating the change in loss f(S) from quantizing a layer set S as a set function on the Boolean cube and analyzing it through two classical changes of basis. This analysis yields two findings. First, across configurations drawn from the deployment distribution, 85--93\% of the variance of f is explained by per-layer effects alone. Second, a monotone transform of a sum of per-layer terms reproduces f's ranking of configurations, misordering at most 2\% of pairs. We propose the coverage model f(S)=cbigl(1-prod_{iin S}(1-a_i)bigr), which reproduces the measured variance profile of f to within a few percent from its L fitted break-rates. This structure supports two predictors of a configuration's loss, each with L+1 parameters. The additive model is the optimal first-order predictor. By Parseval's identity its mean-squared error equals the variance of f left unexplained by per-layer effects, which we measure on full lattices, estimate out of sample at full-network scale, and report with every result as a certificate of how well any additive model can do. The coverage model itself is the second predictor. As allocators at matched memory, they attain the lowest KL divergence among the compared allocators on models from 30B to 355B parameters. Below four bits, the resulting allocations continue to solve code and reasoning tasks at budgets where allocations from gradient sensitivities no longer produce terminating generations.

According to the generalized Polya theorem, the Gaussian distribution on the real line is characterized by the property of equidistribution of a monomial and a linear form of independent identically distributed random variables. We give a complete description of a-adic solenoids for which an analog of this theorem is true. The proof of the main theorem is reduced to solving some functional equation in the class of continuous positive definite functions on the character group of an a-adic solenoid

For a positive integer k, a graph property H, and a graph parameter P, let ex_{P}(n, H; δgeq k) denote the maximum value of P over all n-vertex graphs with minimum degree at least k that do not possess the property H. The corresponding extremal families are denoted by EX_{P}(n, H; δgeq k). For two disjoint graphs H_1 and H_2, let H_1 cup H_2 denote their (disjoint) union, i.e., the graph with vertex set V(H_1) cup V(H_2) and edge set E(H_1) cup E(H_2); and let H_1 vee H_2 denote their join. In 1962, Erdős established a classical theorem on the maximum number of edges in a non-Hamiltonian graph of given order and minimum degree. Motivated by recent work on feasible graph parameters in Ai2023, we prove several extensions of Erdős's 1962 theorem on non-Hamiltonian graphs. The first result gives a common generalization of the extremal theorem due to Erdős and its spectral analogs. As direct applications, we obtain complete solutions to open problems raised in the literature since 2016, thereby improving nearly all related prior results in this direction. Our proof technique differs somewhat from those in MR3539577,MR3556876. We also prove an analog theorem for the Hamiltonian-connected property and obtain a result which extends the theorem of Füredi, Kostochka, and Luo MR3843180 on Hamilton cycles.

We prove a density theorem for the auxiliar function mathcal R(s) found by Siegel in Riemann papers. Let α be a real number with frac12< αle 1, and let N(α,T) be the number of zeros ρ=β+iγ of mathcal R(s) with 1ge βgeα and 0<γle T. Then we prove \[N(α,T)\ll T^{\frac32-α}(\log T)^3.\] Therefore, most of the zeros of mathcal R(s) are near the critical line or to the left of that line. The imaginary line for π^{-s/2}Γ(s/2)mathcal R(s) passing through a zero of mathcal R(s) near the critical line frequently will cut the critical line, producing two zeros of ζ(s) in the critical line.

Two kinds of novel generalizations of Nesbitt's inequality are explored in various cases regarding dimensions and parameters in this article. Some other cases are also discussed elaborately by using the semiconcave-semiconvex theorem. The general inequalities are then employed to deduce some alternate inequalities and mathematical competition questions. At last, a relation about Hurwitz-Lerch zeta functions is obtained.

The Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing states that a market is free of arbitrage exactly when it admits an equivalent martingale measure. We formalize it in Lean 4 over Mathlib in three settings: a finite-state market over a finite horizon (Harrison-Pliska), a one-period market on an arbitrary probability space with a single scalar return (Follmer-Schied), and a one-period market with finitely many assets. The finite case is the geometry of a separating hyperplane; the scalar one-period case is an elementary change of measure. In the d-asset case the equivalent martingale measure is constructed explicitly, as the minimiser of the smooth convex potential E[log(1+e^{langleθ,Yrangle})]: absence of arbitrage is precisely coercivity of the potential, its first-order condition is the martingale property, and the minimiser's logistic weight is the density of the measure. The construction uses no Hahn-Banach theorem, no L^0-closedness argument, no measurable selection, and no non-redundancy hypothesis. To our knowledge this is the first machine-checked Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing in any proof assistant. The boundary is explicit: the general multi-period Dalang-Morton-Willinger theorem lies outside the development. Every theorem is sorry-free, each headline result's axioms are pinned to Mathlib's classical defaults by a build-enforced gate, and the whole is reproducible from a pinned toolchain.

We propose an interpretation of, and approach to, Helly's theorem that can be included quite early in the undergraduate curriculum. At the same time, the approach connects with contemporary models of data privacy and with sampling methods used in epidemiology. The presentation is intended to be accessible to teachers and their students.

We present an elementary, self-contained proof of Grothendieck's inequality that unifies the real and complex cases and yields both the Krivine and Haagerup bounds, the current best-known explicit bounds for the real and complex Grothendieck constants respectively. This article is intended to be pedagogical, combining and streamlining known ideas of Lindenstrauss--Pe{\l}czy\'nski, Krivine, and Haagerup into a proof that need only univariate calculus, basic complex variables, and a modicum of linear algebra as prerequisites.

If h is a ring-valued function on a simplicial complex G we can define two matrices L and g, where the matrix entries are the h energy of homoclinic intersections. We know that the sum over all h values on G is equal to the sum of the Green matrix entries g(x,y). We also have already seen that that the determinants of L or g are both the product of the h(x). In the case where h(x) is the parity of dimension, the sum of the energy values was the standard Euler characteristic and the determinant was a unit. If h(x) was the unit in the ring then L,g are integral quadratic forms which are isospectral and inverse matrices of each other. We prove here that the quadratic energy expression summing over all pairs h(x)^* h(y) of intersecting sets is a signed sum of squares of Green function entries. The quadratic energy expression is Wu characteristic in the case when h is dimension parity. For general h, the quadratic energy expression resembles an Ising Heisenberg type interaction. The conjugate of g is the inverse of L if h takes unit values in a normed ring or in the group of unitary operators in an operator algebra.

This paper reformulates a classical result in probability theory from the 1930s in modern categorical terms: de Finetti's representation theorem is redescribed as limit statement for a chain of finite spaces in the Kleisli category of the Giry monad. This new limit is used to identify among exchangeable coalgebras the final one.
