Lifts of continuous and Hölder alpha curves in the configuration space MN/SN$M^N/S_N$
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract In this paper, we study the quotient space X=MN/SN$X = M^N / S_N$ of equivalence classes of N$N$‐tuples in a metric space (M,dM)$(M, d_M)$, equipped with the metric induced by the minimal total pairing distance. Given a continuous path F:(0,1)→X$F: (0,1) \rightarrow X$, we prove that there exist continuous functions f1,⋯,fN:(0,1)→M$f_1, \dots,

On computing local monodromy and the numerical local irreducible decomposition
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Similarly to the global case, the local structure of a holomorphic subvariety at a given point is described by its local irreducible decomposition. Geometrically, the key requirement for obtaining a local irreducible decomposition is to compute the local monodromy action of a generic linear projection at the given point, which is always well ...

The 3‐sparsity of Xn−1$X^n-1$ over finite fields of characteristic 2
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Let q$q$ be a prime power and Fq$\mathbb {F}_q$ the finite field with q$q$ elements. For a positive integer n$n$, the polynomial Xn−1∈Fq[X]$X^n - 1 \in \mathbb {F}_q[X]$ is termed 3‐sparse over Fq$\mathbb {F}_q$ if all its irreducible factors in Fq[X]$\mathbb {F}_q[X]$ are either binomials or trinomials.

Rational points on even‐dimensional Fermat cubics
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract We show that even‐dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic not equal to three, by constructing explicit rational parameterizations with polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our rationality constructions, we obtain estimates for the number of their rational points over a number field and ...

An extended definition of Anosov representation for relatively hyperbolic groups
Journal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov representations defined by Kapovich–Leeb and Zhu, and Zhu–Zimmer, as well as holonomy representations of various ...

CULTURAL FUSION IN LATE BRONZE AGE GOLDWORK: DIADEMS AND MOUTH‐PIECES FROM HALA SULTAN TEKKE, CYPRUS
Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 151-179, May 2026.Summary This study investigates recently discovered gold diadems and mouth‐pieces from seven chamber tombs and one shaft tomb at the Late Bronze Age cemetery of Hala Sultan Tekke, dating from the fifteenth to the thirteenth centuries BC. The chamber tombs, all containing multi‐generational burials, yielded a variety of ornaments, which are analysed in ...

Toxic Entanglements: Asylum and Extraction in the Republic of Nauru
PoLAR: Political and Legal Anthropology Review, Volume 49, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the outsourcing of asylum processing and resettlement from Global North to South. Many of these containment practices retrace the fault lines of more typically thought‐of colonial extractive regimes. This article draws on long‐term ethnographic research conducted in the Republic of Nauru, the world'
