Framed motives of smooth affine pairs

The theory of framed motives by Garkusha and Panin gives computations in the stable motivic homotopy category $\mathbf{SH}(k)$ in terms of Voevodsky's framed correspondences. In particular, the motivically fibrant Ω-resolution in positive degrees of the motivic suspension spectrum ${\mathrm{\Sigma }}_{{\mathbb{P}}^1}^{\infty }{X}_{+}$, where $X_{+}=X??$, for a smooth scheme $X\in {\mathrm{Sm}}_k$ over an infinite perfect field k, is computed.The computation by Garkusha, Neshitov and Panin of the framed motives of relative motivic spheres $({\mathbb{A}}^l\times X)/(({\mathbb{A}}^l?0)\times X)$, $X\in {\mathrm{Sm}}_k$, is one of ingredients in the theory. In the article we extend this result to the case of a pair $(X,U)$ given by a smooth affine variety X over k and an open subscheme $U?X$.The result gives an explicit motivically fibrant Ω-resolution in positive degrees for the motivic suspension spectrum ${\mathrm{\Sigma }}_{{\mathbb{P}}^1}^{\infty }(X_{+}/U_{+})$ of the quotient-sheaf $X_{+}/U_{+}$.     

Reflection length with two parameters in the asymptotic representation theory of type B/C and applications

We introduce a two-parameter function ${?}_{q_{+},q_{?}}$ on the infinite hyperoctahedral group, which is a bivariate refinement of the reflection length. We show that this signed reflection function ${?}_{q_{+},q_{?}}$ is positive definite if and only if it is an extreme character of the infinite hyperoctahedral group and we classify the corresponding set of parameters $q_{+},q_{?}$. We construct the corresponding representations through a natural action of the hyperoctahedral group $B(n)$ on the tensor product of n copies of a vector space, which gives a two-parameter analog of the classical construction of Schur–Weyl.We apply our classification to construct a cyclic Fock space of type B generalizing the one-parameter construction in type A found previously by Bo?ejko and Guta. We also construct a new Gaussian operator acting on the cyclic Fock space of type B and we relate its moments with the Askey–Wimp–Kerov distribution by using the notion of cycles on pair-partitions, which we introduce here. Finally, we explain how to solve the analogous problem for the Coxeter groups of type D by using our main result.     

A note on the distribution of weights of fixed-rank matrices over the binary field

Let M be a random $m\times n$ rank-r matrix over the binary field ${\mathbb{F}}_2$, and let $\mathrm{wt}(\mathbf{M})$ be its Hamming weight, that is, the number of nonzero entries of M.We prove that, as $m,n\to +\infty$ with r fixed and $m/n$ tending to a constant, we have that$\frac{\mathrm{wt}(\mathbf{M})-\frac{1-2^{-r}}{2}mn}{\sqrt{\frac{2^{-r}(1-2^{-r})}{4}(m+n)mn}}$ converges in distribution to a standard normal random variable.
