Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT We provide full details of a BV formulation of N=1$\mathcal N=1$ supergravity in 10 dimensions, to all orders in fermions, built from the generalised geometry description of the theory. In contrast to standard treatments, we introduce neither the degrees of freedom corresponding to orthonormal frames for the metric nor the local Lorentz ...

The universal family of punctured Riemann surfaces is Stein
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract We show that the universal Teichmüller family V(g,n)$V(g,n)$ of compact Riemann surfaces of genus g⩾0$g\geqslant 0$ with n>0$n>0$ punctures is a Stein manifold. We describe its basic function‐theoretic properties and pose some challenging questions. We show, in particular, that the space of fibrewise algebraic functions on the universal family

Which singular tangent bundles are isomorphic?
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Logarithmic and b$ b$‐tangent bundles provide a versatile framework for addressing singularities in geometry. Introduced by Deligne and Melrose, these modified bundles resolve singularities by reframing singular vector fields as well‐behaved sections of these singular bundles.

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, we continue the development of the Cartan neural networks programme, launched with three previous publications, by focusing on some mathematical foundational aspects that we deem necessary for our next steps forward. The mathematical and conceptual results are diverse and span various mathematical fields, but the inspiring ...

On virtual chirality of 3‐manifolds
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract We prove that if a prime 3‐manifold M$M$ is not finitely covered by the 3‐sphere or a product manifold, then M$M$ is virtually chiral, that is, it has a finite cover that does not admit an orientation‐reversing self‐homeomorphism. In general, if a 3‐manifold contains a virtually chiral prime summand, then it is virtually chiral.

A Miyaoka–Yau inequality for hyperplane arrangements in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Let H$\mathcal {H}$ be a hyperplane arrangement in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$. We define a quadratic form Q$Q$ on RH$\mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ that is entirely determined by the intersection poset of H$\mathcal {H}$. Using the Bogomolov–Gieseker inequality for parabolic bundles, we show that if a∈RH$\mathbf {a}\in \mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ is ...

Unitarily invariant valuations on convex functions
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Continuous, dually epi‐translation invariant valuations on the space of finite‐valued convex functions on Cn$\mathbb {C}^n$ that are invariant under the unitary group are investigated. It is shown that elements belonging to the dense subspace of smooth valuations admit a unique integral representation in terms of two families of Monge–Ampère ...

Circle packings, renormalizations, and subdivision rules
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 132, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract In this paper, we use iterations of skinning maps on Teichmüller spaces to study circle packings and develop a renormalization theory for circle packings whose nerves satisfy certain subdivision rules. We characterize when the skinning map has bounded image.

Ewald's Conjecture and integer points in algebraic and symplectic toric geometry
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 132, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract We solve several open problems concerning integer points of reflexive smooth polytopes, also known as monotone polytopes. While the paper belongs to the realm of discrete geometry, the connection with symplectic and algebraic geometry appears naturally since these polytopes have an important role in both areas.
