Osculating geometry and higher‐order distance Loci

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract We discuss the problem of optimizing the distance function from a given point, subject to polynomial constraints. A key algebraic invariant that governs its complexity is the Euclidean distance degree, which pertains to first‐order tangency. We focus on the data locus of points possessing at least one critical point of the distance function ...

Toral symmetries of collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow on compact manifolds occur only on the total space of principal torus bundles. Under an algebraic assumption that guarantees flowing through diagonal metrics and a tameness assumption on the collapsing directions, we prove that such solutions have additional symmetries, that is, they ...

Local equivalence and refinements of Rasmussen's s‐invariant

open access: yesJournal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Inspired by the notions of local equivalence in monopole and Heegaard Floer homology, we introduce a version of local equivalence that combines odd Khovanov homology with equivariant even Khovanov homology into an algebraic package called a local even–odd (LEO) triple.

Obstructions to homotopy invariance of loop coproduct via parameterized fixed‐point theory

open access: yesJournal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Given f:M→N$f:M \rightarrow N$ a homotopy equivalence of compact manifolds with boundary, we use a construction of Geoghegan and Nicas to define its Reidemeister trace [T]∈π1st(LN,N)$[T] \in \pi _1^{st}(\mathcal {L}N, N)$. We realize the Goresky–Hingston coproduct as a map of spectra, and show that the failure of f$f$ to entwine the spectral ...

Efficient Gradient‐Enhanced Bayesian Optimizer with Comparisons to Conjugate‐Gradient and Quasi‐Newton Optimizers for Unconstrained Local Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
ABSTRACT The probabilistic surrogates used by Bayesian optimizers make them popular methods when function evaluations are noisy or expensive to evaluate. While Bayesian optimizers are traditionally used for global optimization, their benefits are also valuable for local optimization.

A Novel Peak‐Shape Aware Approach for Mass Alignment in Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale In mass spectrometry measurements, mass shifts may be inadvertently introduced due to instrumental drift and calibration inaccuracies, potentially compromising the accuracy of subsequent data analysis. This work presents a novel, label‐free algorithm to improve relative mass alignment between mass spectra.
