A $C_2$-equivariant analog of Mahowald's Thom spectrum theorem
We prove that the $C_2$-equivariant Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum associated to the constant Mackey functor $\underline{\mathbb{F}}_2$ is equivalent to a Thom spectrum over ${\Omega^\rho S^{\rho + 1}}$.Comment: 10 pages; minor updates following referee ...

We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 35 studies to examine the relationship between distance to natural habitat and pollinator abundance, species richness and crop fruit set in tropical smallholder farms. We found no consistent effects on abundance or fruit set, and only a slight, highly variable negative effect on pollinator richness,

Olshanski spherical functions for infinite dimensional motion groups of fixed rank [PDF]
Consider the Gelfand pairs $(G_p,K_p):=(M_{p,q} \rtimes U_p,U_p)$ associated with motion groups over the fields $\mathbb F=\mathbb R,\mathbb C,\mathbb H$ with $p\geq q$ and fixed $q$ as well as the inductive limit $p\to\infty$,the Olshanski spherical ...
