Positive traces and analytic Langlands correspondence by Klyuev, Daniil

“…On the other side there is joint spectrum of certain operators on L²(Bun subscript G), called Hecke operators, where Bun subscript G is the variety of stable parabolic G-bundles on X and L²(Bun subscript G) is a Hilbert space of square-integrable half-densities. We prove most of the main conjectures of analytic Langlands correspondence in the case when G=PGL₂(C) and X either a genus one curve with points or X is P¹ with higher structures at points.…”

Sums of GUE matrices and concentration of hives from correlation decay of eigengaps by Narayanan, Hariharan, Sheffield, Scott, Tao, Terence

“…As a first step towards the asymptotic analysis of random hives, we show that if the eigenvalues are drawn from the GUE ensemble, then the associated augmented hives exhibit concentration as n → ∞ . Our main ingredients include a representation due to Speyer of augmented hives involving a supremum of linear functions applied to a product of Gelfand–Tsetlin polytopes; known results by Klartag on the KLS conjecture in order to handle the aforementioned supremum; covariance bounds of Cipolloni–Erdős–Schröder of eigenvalue gaps of GUE; and the use of the theory of determinantal processes to analyze the GUE minor process.…”

I remember your name : examining the effects of individuation training on racial bias in preschoolers by Ng, Xin Ying

“…Individuation training involved learning to identify Indian males by their unique names and facial features, while the filler task was an unrelated colouring activity of equivalent duration. We obtained three main findings that were consistent with our hypotheses: 1) preschoolers generally display a significant implicit and explicit biases favouring their own race, 2) training preschoolers to individuate other race resulted in significantly greater reductions in implicit racial bias than compared to a filler task, and 3) training preschoolers to individuate other race did not reduce their explicit racial bias to a greater extent than a filler task. …”
