Degenerating sequences of conformal classes and the conformal Steklov spectrum
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Let $\Sigma $ be a compact surface with boundary. For a given conformal class c on $\Sigma $ the functional $\sigma _k^*(\Sigma ,c)$ is defined as the supremum of the k th normalized Steklov eigenvalue over all metrics in c . We consider the behavior of this functional on the moduli space of conformal classes on $\Sigma $ . A precise formula for the limit of $\sigma _k^*(\Sigma ,c_n)$ when the sequence $\{c_n\}$ degenerates is obtained. We apply this formula to the study of natural analogs of the Friedlander–Nadirashvili invariants of closed manifolds defined as $\inf _{c}\sigma _k^*(\Sigma ,c)$ , where the infimum is taken over all conformal classes c on $\Sigma $ . We show that these quantities are equal to $2\pi k$ for any surface with boundary. As an application of our techniques we obtain new estimates on the k th normalized Steklov eigenvalue of a nonorientable surface in terms of its genus and the number of boundary components.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
