I am the +1 for the keynote speaker at a conference on oceans and climate change. So i am traveling to fuck around both literally and figuratively while other people work (and also try to do a little bit of work myself too)

Both looking and feeling a little rough since i just got off a 17hr flight to Aotearoa. But i’m alternating working on finishing an article i’m writing on mirror symmetry and doing the exercises in a book on algebraic surfaces and holomorphic vector bundles. Still so much joy in math!

This very short, simple, and elegant paper is a demonstration of the power of Elie Cartan’s method of moving frames. You could read this whole paper on the bus and still have time to think about it! projecteuclid.org/journals/jou...

The Schwarzian derivative appears complicated and unintuitive, but measures when two (sufficiently smooth) mappings into the projective line are related by a Möbius transformation. I recently learned of another very beautiful interpretation by Flanders: it is a curvature. 👇🏽
The formula for the Schwarzian derivative 

(Sf)(t) = f’’’(t)/f’(t) - 3/2(f’’(t)/f’(t))^2

Hi All,
On Monday next week from 3:30-5 in the Commons room we will have a discussion on the state of mathematics and Al. We have several small committees addressing some concrete matters (more on that later) but this will be an open discussion on this wide open problem. This is short notice but don't worry-there will be other discussions too!
Here are some questions posed by Andreas to get us started:
1) What is mathematics without problem solving? Should we do math without Al?
2) How do we educate students? Will there be a next generation?
3) How do we still justify that we need funding?

"fuck it we ball" becomes far more weighty once we account for the pre-existing axiom that is
"ball is life," for the latter effectively transforms the former into "fuck it we live." and what maxim could be more gravely important than that which urges man to persist at all costs?

Well written, but maybe not the best introduction to the subject depending on one’s background. More geared in some ways towards people who are interested in topology of smooth 4-manifolds. I personally find it a delightful read.

I like my ladies like i like my assumptions on almost minimal Fano varieties.
Screenshot of LaTeX editor:

(begin (proposition}
(labelfprop-nonempty}
[Prokhorox, Icite[Thm. 1.15]{MR4922010}]
Suppose that $V$ is a Fano $n$-fold of index $d \geq n-2$. Then $|-K_V| Ineq lemptyset$.
lend(proposition}
응
At present, the general non-emptiness of $|-K_VI$ for higher dimensional Fano varieties of low index is not known to the best of our knowledge.
This leads us to the following critical assumption that we use throughout the remainder of the article.
%
(begin (assumption)
(label fass-nonempty}
Let $V$ be an almost minimal Fano $n$-fold.
Then $|-K_V| \neq lemptyset$, and a general, smooth, irreducible divisor $X^\vee lin I-K_V|$ is a CY variety.
lend {assumption}
응
\par In the context of this article, a CY xacietx of dimension $m$ is a smooth xaciety of dimension with trivial canonical class and
$h^{i,0}=0$ for $i = 1,\dots, m-1$. Such a variety
may be closed (resp. open), and hence projective (resp. quasiprojective). Given our assumptions, associated to a Fano $n$-fold $V$ are two natural CY varieties of respective dimension $n-1, l, n+1$:
$X^\vee lin |-K_V|$, a very general smooth

New paper that studies the interplay between how light is deflected by electrically charged black holes and the geometry of a special family of elliptic fibrations hit the timeline last night! 🥳✨ arxiv.org/abs/2609.30730
A visualization of a black hole with various parts labelled.Screenshot of the article. Title: Photon spheres, elliptic surfaces, and Seiberg Witten geometry
Abstract: We study null geodesics in Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter spacetime and in its w =
-2/3 Kiselev deformation through the elliptic curves defined by the radial equation. The relation of these curves to the non-critical E- Seiberg- Witten family yields differential equations for finite-distance light deflection, and explains the boundary source term through a suitable gauge of the Seiberg Witten differential. This geometry separates
the extremal point Q = M2 from the Argyres-Douglas point Q2 = 9M2/8. We also
determine the Kiselev critical and horizon loci, and show that, at fixed nonzero angular momentum, the Argyres-Douglas and ultracold loci meet only at zero Killing energy.
