On the basic locus of GSpin Shimura varieties with vertex stabilizer level

We study the basic locus of Shimura varieties associated to the group of spinor similitudes of a quadratic space over $\mathbb{Q}$ with level structure given by the stabilizer of a vertex lattice. We give a description of the underlying reduced scheme of the associated Rapoport--Zink space, generalizing results of Howard--Pappas [HP17] and Oki [Oki20b], in the case of self-dual, and almost self dual level structure.

Weighted special cycles on Rapoport--Zink spaces with almost self-dual level

We introduce a ``vector valued'' version of special cycles on GSpin Rapoport--Zink spaces with almost self-dual level in the context of the Kudla program, with certain linear invariance and local modularity features. They are local analogs of special cycles on GSpin Shimura varieties with almost self-dual parahoric level (e.g. Siegel threefolds with paramodular level). We establish local arithmetic Siegel--Weil formulas relating arithmetic intersection numbers of these special cycles and derivatives of certain local Whittaker functions in any dimension. The proof is based on a reduction formula for cyclic quadratic lattices.

Intersections of Hecke correspondences on modular curves

We compute the arithmetic intersections of Hecke correspondences on the product of integral model of modular curve $\mathcal{X}_0(N)$ and relate it to the derivatives of certain Siegel Eisenstein series when $N$ is odd and squarefree. We prove this by establishing a precise identity between the arithmetic intersection numbers on the Rapoport--Zink space associated to $\mathcal{X}_0(N)^{2}$ and the derivatives of local representation densities of quadratic forms.

The basic locus of ramified unitary Shimura varieties of signature $(n-1,1)$ at maximal vertex level

We construct the Bruhat--Tits stratification of the reduced locus of the ramified unitary Rapoport--Zink space of signature $(n-1,1)$, with the level being the stabilizer of a vertex lattice. We develop the local model theory for Bruhat--Tits strata, proving their normality and Cohen--Macaulayness, and provide precise dimension formulas. Additionally, we establish an explicit scheme-theoretical isomorphism between Bruhat--Tits strata and Deligne--Lusztig varieties.

Quantum dynamics of photophysical aggregates in conjugated polymers

Photophysical aggregates are ubiquitous in many solid-state microstructures adopted by conjugated polymers, in which $\pi$ electrons interact with those in other polymer chains or those in other chromophores along the chain. These interactions fundamentally define the electronic and optical properties of the polymer film. While valuable insight can be gained from linear excitation and photoluminescence spectra, nonlinear coherent excitation spectral lineshapes provide intricate understanding on the electronic couplings that define the aggregate and their fluctuations. Here, we discuss the coherent two-dimensional excitation lineshape of a model hairy-rod conjugated polymer. At zero population waiting time, we find a $\pi/2$ phase shift between the 0-0 and 0-1 vibronic peaks in the real and imaginary components of the complex coherent spectrum, as well as a dynamic phase rotation with population waiting time over timescales that are longer than the optical dephasing time. We conjecture that these are markers of relaxation of the photophysical aggregate down the tight manifold of the exciton band. These results highlight the potential for coherent spectroscopy via analysis of the complex spectral lineshape to become a key tool to develop structure-property relationships in complex functional materials.

Regular models of ramified unitary Shimura varieties at maximal parahoric level

We use the idea of splitting models to define and study a semi-stable model for unitary Shimura varieties of signature $(n-1,1)$ with maximal parahoric level structure at ramified primes. In this case, the ``naive'' splitting model defined by Pappas and Rapoport fails to be flat in a crucial way. We prove that the genuine splitting model in this case is flat with semi-stable reduction.

Pullback of arithmetic theta series and its modularity for unitary Shimura curves

This paper is a complement of the modularity result of Bruinier, Howard, Kudla, Rapoport and Yang (BHKRY) for the special case $U(1,1)$ not considered there. The main idea to embed a $U(1, 1)$ Shimura curve to many $U(n-1, 1)$ Shimura varieties for big $n$, and prove a precise pullback formula of the generating series of arithmetic divisors. Afterwards, we use the modularity result of BHKRY together with existence of non-vanishing of classical theta series at any given point in the upper half plane to prove the modulartiy result on $U(1, 1)$ Shimura curves.

Dihedral long root A-packets of $p$-adic $G_2$ via theta correspondence

We construct local Arthur packets associated with a dihedral long root $A$-parameter of a split reductive group of type $G_2$ over a nonarchimedian local field of characteristic zero. The construction relies on an exceptional correspondence for the pair $(\mathrm{PU}_3\rtimes \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}, G_2)$.

A proof of the Kudla-Rapoport conjecture for Krämer models

We prove the Kudla--Rapoport conjecture for Krämer models of unitary Rapoport--Zink spaces at ramified places. It is a precise identity between arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on Krämer models and modified derived local densities of hermitian forms. As an application, we relax the local assumptions at ramified places in the arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula for unitary Shimura varieties, which is in particular applicable to unitary Shimura vartieties associated to unimodular hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic fields.

The Kudla-Rapoport conjecture at a ramified prime for $U(1, 1)$

In this paper, we proved a local arithmetic Siegel-Weil formula for a $U(1, 1)$-Shimura variety at a ramified prime, a.k.a. a Kudla-Rapoport conjecture at a ramified case. The formula needs to be modified from the original Kudla-Rapoport conjecture. In the process, we also gives an explicit decomposition of the special divisors of the Rapoport-Zink space of unitary type $(1, 1)$ (Krämer model). A key ingredient is to relate the Rapoport-Zink space to the Drinfeld upper plane.

Kudla-Rapoport conjecture for Krämer models

In this paper, we propose a modified Kudla-Rapoport conjecture for the Krämer model of unitary Rapoport-Zink space at a ramified prime, which is a precise identity relating intersection numbers of special cycles to derivatives of Hermitian local density polynomials. We also introduce the notion of special difference cycles, which has surprisingly simple description. Combining this with induction formulas of Hermitian local density polynomials, we prove the modified Kudla-Rapoport conjecture when $n=3$. Our conjecture, combining with known results at inert and infinite primes, implies arithmetic Siegel-Weil formula for all non-singular coefficients when the level structure of the corresponding unitary Shimura variety is defined by a self-dual lattice.

Equilibrium distribution and diffusion of mixed hydrogen-methane gas in gravity field

Repurposing existing natural gas pipelines is a promising solution for large-scale transportation of mixed hydrogen-methane gas. However, it remains debatable whether gravitational stratification can notably affect hydrogen partial pressure in the gas mixture. To address this issue, we combined molecular dynamics simulation with thermodynamic and diffusion theories. Our study systematically examined the equilibrium distribution of hydrogen-methane mixtures in gravity fields. We demonstrated that partial pressures of both gases decrease with altitude, with hydrogen showing slower decrease due to its smaller molar mass. As a result, the volume fraction of hydrogen is maximized at the top end of pipes. The stratification is more favorable at low temperature and large altitude drops, with notable gas stratification only occurring at extremely large drops in altitude, being generally negligible even at a drop of 1500 m. Furthermore, we showed that the diffusion time required to achieve the equilibrium distribution is proportional to gas pressure and the square of pipeline height. This requires approximately 300 years for a 1500 m pipeline at 1 bar. Therefore, temporary interruptions in pipeline gas transportation will not cause visible stratification. Our work clarifies the effect of gravity on hydrogen-methane gas mixtures and provides quantitative insights into assessing the stratification of gas mixtures in pipelines.

Just-likely intersections on Hilbert modular surfaces

In this paper, we prove an intersection-theoretic result pertaining to curves in certain Hilbert modular surfaces in positive characteristic. Specifically, we show that given two appropriate curves C,D parameterizing abelian surfaces with real multiplication, the set of points (x,y) in the product CxD with surfaces parameterized by x and y isogenous to each other is Zariski dense in C x D, thereby proving a case of a just-likely intersection conjecture. We also compute the change in Faltings height under appropriate p-power isogenies of abelian surfaces with real multiplication over characteristic p global fields.
