We will introduce a quantity which measures the singularity of a plurisubharmonic function$φ$relative to another plurisubharmonic function$ψ$, at a point$a$. We denote this quantity by$ν$_{$a$,$ψ$}($φ$). It can be seen as a generalization of the classical Lelong number in a natural way: if$ψ$=($n$−1)log| ⋅ −$a$|, where$n$is the dimension of the set where$φ$is defined, then$ν$_{$a$,$ψ$}($φ$) coincides with the classical Lelong number of$φ$at the point$a$. The main theorem of this article says that the upper level sets of our generalized Lelong number, i.e. the sets of the form {$z$:$ν$_{$z$,$ψ$}($φ$)≥$c$} where$c$>0, are in fact analytic sets, provided that the$weight$$ψ$satisfies some additional conditions.

We consider two-dimensional critical bond percolation. Conditioned on the existence of an open circuit in an annulus, we show that the ratio of the expected size of the shortest open circuit to the expected size of the innermost circuit tends to zero as the side length of the annulus tends to infinity, the aspect ratio remaining fixed. The same proof yields a similar result for the lowest open crossing of a rectangle. In this last case, we answer a question of Kesten and Zhang by showing in addition that the ratio of the length of the shortest crossing to the length of the lowest tends to zero in probability. This suggests that the chemical distance in critical percolation is given by an exponent strictly smaller than that of the lowest path.

In this paper we give a proposal for mirrors to (0,2) supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs), for those (0,2) GLSMs which are deformations of (2,2) GLSMs. Specifically, we propose a construction of (0,2) mirrors for (0,2) GLSMs with E terms that are linear and diagonal, reducing to both the Hori-Vafa prescription as well as a recent (2,2) nonabelian mirrors proposal on the (2,2) locus. For the special case of abelian (0,2) GLSMs, two of the authors have previously proposed a systematic construction, which is both simplified and generalized by the proposal here.
