ABSTRACT Determinism is (roughly) the thesis that the past determines the future. But efforts to define it precisely have exposed deep methodological disagreements. Standard possible‐worlds formulations of determinism presuppose an “agreement” relation between worlds, but this relation can be understood in multiple ways, none of which is particularly ...

Abstract Relative plate motion in subduction zones transitions from frictional slip to viscous flow with increasing depth and temperature. The frictional‐viscous transition can control the depth extent of megathrust earthquakes and episodic tremor and slip (ETS).

Polymatroidal tilings and the Chow class of linked projective spaces
Abstract Linked projective spaces are quiver Grassmannians of constant dimension one of certain quiver representations, called linked nets, over certain quivers, called Zn$\mathbb {Z}^n$‐quivers. They were recently introduced as a tool for describing schematic limits of families of divisors.

Moments of L$L$‐functions via a relative trace formula
Abstract We prove an asymptotic formula for the second moment of the GL(n)×GL(n−1)$\mathrm{GL}(n)\times \mathrm{GL}(n-1)$ Rankin–Selberg central L$L$‐values L(1/2,Π⊗π)$L(1/2,\Pi \otimes \pi)$, where π$\pi$ is a fixed cuspidal representation of GL(n−1)$\mathrm{GL}(n-1)$ that is tempered and unramified at every place, while Π$\Pi$ varies over a family of

On the Euler characteristic of S$S$‐arithmetic groups
Abstract We show that the sign of the Euler characteristic of an S$S$‐arithmetic subgroup of a simple algebraic group depends on the S$S$‐congruence completion only, except possibly in type 6D4${}^6 D_4$. Consequently, the sign is a profinite invariant for such S$S$‐arithmetic groups with the congruence subgroup property. This generalizes previous work

Abstract Myanmar's high seismic hazard is underscored by the 2025 Mw 7.7 earthquake on the Sagaing Fault, yet its seismicity patterns and underlying controls remain poorly understood. Using new seismic data from the 2nd‐phase array of the China‐Myanmar Geophysical Survey in the Myanmar Orogen, we construct a high‐resolution catalog of 1,819 local ...

Back‐Propagating Earthquakes on Simple Faults
Abstract Back‐propagating earthquakes, characterized by a secondary front reversing into previously ruptured areas, challenge conventional models of rupture dynamics and have been increasingly documented in recent years. The conditions for this phenomenon remain poorly understood: while rupture complexity is often attributed to fault heterogeneity ...

Coxeter's enumeration of Coxeter groups
Abstract In a short paper that appeared in the Journal of the London Mathematical Society in 1934, H. S. M. Coxeter completed the classification of finite Coxeter groups. In this survey, we describe what Coxeter did in this paper and examine an assortment of topics that illustrate the broad and enduring influence of Coxeter's paper on developments in ...

Abstract Supershear rupture has been investigated by many studies, yet its exact characteristics during natural earthquakes are not fully clear, due to the paucity of near‐field constraints. Here we analyze the strong motion data recorded at a near‐fault station during the 2025 Mw 7.8 Myanmar earthquake to estimate the detailed source process around ...

A Numerical Study on the Role of Wear During Seismic Cycles of Rough Faults
Abstract Fault zones mature through the accumulation of slip from multiple earthquakes and the wearing of contact asperities at multiple scales. This study examines how wear affects the evolution of fault seismicity, focusing on earthquake nucleation, recurrence, and moment partitioning.
