An important goal in studying the relations between unitary VOAs and conformal nets is to prove the equivalence of their ribbon categories. In this article, we prove this conjecture for many familiar examples. Our main idea is to construct new structures associated to conformal nets: the categorical extensions.

We calculate the local Fourier transforms for connections on the formal punctured disk, reproducing the results of J. Fang and C. Sabbah using a different method. Our method is similar to Fang’s, but more direct.

The tip multifractal spectrum of a 2-dimensional curve is one way to describe the behavior of the uniformizing conformal map of the complement near the tip. We give the tip multifractal spectrum for a Schramm–Loewner evolution (SLE) curve, we prove that the spectrum is valid with probability 1, and we give applications to the scaling of harmonic measure at the tip.

Let $ \gamma = \frac{1}{2}\left( {1 + \sqrt {5} } \right) $ denote the golden ratio. H. Davenport and W. M. Schmidt showed in 1969 that, for each non-quadratic irrational real number ξ, there exists a constant$c$> 0 with the property that, for arbitrarily large values of$X$, the inequalities $ \left| {{x_0}} \right| \leqslant X,\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}\xi - {x_1}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}}\,\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}{\xi^2} - {x_2}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}} $ admit no non-zero solution $ \left( {{x_0},{x_1},{x_2}} \right) \in {\mathbb{Z}^3} $ . Their result is best possible in the sense that, conversely, there are countably many non-quadratic irrational real numbers ξ such that, for a larger value of c, the same inequalities admit a non-zero integer solution for each$X$≥ 1. Such$extremal$numbers are transcendental and their set is stable under the action of $ {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) $ on $ \mathbb{R}\backslash \mathbb{Q} $ by linear fractional transformations. In this paper, it is shown that there exist extremal numbers ξ for which the Lagrange constant ν(ξ) = liminf_{$q$→∞}$q$||$q$ξ|| is $ \frac{1}{3} $ , the largest possible value for a non-quadratic number, and that there is a natural bijection between the $ {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) $ -equivalence classes of such numbers and the non-trivial solutions of Markoff’s equation.

The analyticity of the Stokes semigroup with the Dirichlet boundary condition is established in spaces of bounded functions when the domain occupied with fluid is bounded or more generally admissible which admits a special estimate for the Helmholtz decomposition. The proof is based on a blow-up argument. This is the first proof of the analyticity in spaces of bounded functions which was left open more than thirty years.
