Let $k \geqslant 2$ and $b \geqslant 3$ be integers, and suppose that $d_1, d_2 \in \{0,1,\dots , b - 1\}$ are distinct and coprime. Let $\mathcal {S}$ be the set of non-negative integers, all of whose digits in base $b$ are either $d_1$ or $d_2$. Then every sufficiently large integer is a sum of at most $b^{160 k^2}$ numbers of the form $x^k$, $x \in \mathcal {S}$.

This corrigendum fixes an error in the statement of Lemma 8.3 in the published version of the paper.

The Newell–Littlewood (NL) numbers are tensor product multiplicities of Weyl modules for the classical groups in the stable range. Littlewood–Richardson (LR) coefficients form a special case. Klyachko connected eigenvalues of sums of Hermitian matrices to the saturated LR-cone and established defining linear inequalities. We prove analogues for the saturated NL-cone: a description by Extended Horn inequalities (as conjectured in part II of this series), where, using a result of King’s, this description is controlled by the saturated LR-cone and thereby recursive, just like the Horn inequalities; a minimal list of defining linear inequalities; an eigenvalue interpretation; and a factorization of Newell–Littlewood numbers, on the boundary.

We study the Macdonald intersection polynomials $\operatorname {I}_{\mu ^{(1)},\dots ,\mu ^{(k)}}[X;q,t]$, which are indexed by $k$-tuples of partitions $\mu ^{(1)},\dots ,\mu ^{(k)}$. These polynomials are conjectured to be equal to the bigraded Frobenius characteristic of the intersection of Garsia–Haiman modules, as proposed by the science fiction conjecture of Bergeron and Garsia. In this work, we establish the vanishing identity and the shape independence of the Macdonald intersection polynomials. Additionally, we unveil a remarkable connection between $\operatorname {I}_{\mu ^{(1)},\dots ,\mu ^{(k)}}$ and the character $\nabla e_{k-1}$ of diagonal coinvariant algebra by employing the plethystic formula for the Macdonald polynomials of Garsia, Haiman, and Tesler. Furthermore, we establish a connection between $\operatorname {I}_{\mu ^{(1)},\dots ,\mu ^{(k)}}$ and the shuffle formula $D_{k-1}[X;q,t]$, utilizing novel combinatorial tools such as the column exchange rule and the lightning bolt formula for Macdonald intersection polynomials. Notably, our findings provide a new proof for the shuffle theorem.

We develop analogues of Green’s $N_p$ conditions for subvarieties of weighted projective space, and we prove that such $N_p$ conditions are satisfied for high degree embeddings of curves in weighted projective space. A key technical result links positivity with low degree (virtual) syzygies in wide generality, including cases where normal generation fails.

In this paper we use the periodic Toda lattice to show that certain Lagrangian product configurations in the classical phase space are symplectically equivalent to toric domains. In particular, we prove that the Lagrangian product of a certain simplex and the Voronoi cell of the root lattice $A_n$ is symplectically equivalent to a Euclidean ball. As a consequence, we deduce that the Lagrangian product of an equilateral triangle and a regular hexagon is symplectomorphic to a Euclidean ball in dimension 4.

Green and Tao’s arithmetic regularity lemma and counting lemma together apply to systems of linear forms which satisfy a particular algebraic criterion known as the ‘flag condition’. We give an arithmetic regularity lemma and counting lemma which apply to all systems of linear forms.

The linear arithmetic fundamental lemma (AFL) is a conjectural identity of intersection numbers on Lubin–Tate deformation spaces and derivatives of orbital integrals. It was introduced for elliptic orbits by Li, and Howard and Li. For elliptic orbits, the relevant intersection problem is formulated for the basic isogeny class. In the present article, we extend the conjecture to all orbits and all isogeny classes. Our main result is a reduction of the non-basic cases of the AFL to the basic ones, which relies on an analysis of the connected-étale sequence. Our results will be relevant in the global setting, where also locally non-elliptic orbits may contribute in a non-trivial way.

We prove a conjecture of Emerton, Gee and Hellmann concerning the overconvergence of étale $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules in families parametrized by topologically finite-type $\mathbf{Z}_{p}$-algebras. As a consequence, we deduce the existence of a natural map from the rigid fiber of the Emerton–Gee stack to the rigid analytic stack of $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules.
