### When two determinantal ideals together generate a power of the maximal ideal?

(A somewhat technical question, but maybe it is well known.) Consider matrices over the ring $k]$, whose entries vanish at the origin (i.e. belong to the maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$). Denote by $J(A_{k,l})$ the ideal of maximal minors of the matrix $A_{k,l}\in Mat(k,l,\mathfrak{m})$. Given two generic enough (and mutually generic!) matrices, ....

Question Does there exist a computer package that will solve families of systems of linear equations over a field of prime characteristic? An Example Suppose I wanted to know when the following system of equations had a non-zero solution x over a field of characteristic p: $\binom{N+i}{i} x =0 \quad ....

Let$X_1, X_2, \ldots$be independent and identically distributed random variables with mean$0$and variance$1$and let$S_n = (X_1 + \cdots + X_n)/\sqrt{n}$to be their normalized sum. Define$D_n$to the total variation (TV) distance between$S_n$and a standard Gaussian. Question: Is$D_n$always monotonic ....

Somebody answered this question instead of the question here (https://mathoverflow.net/questions/410/what-is-an-example-of-a-smooth-variety-over-a-finite-field-fp-which-does-not-emb), so I am asking this with the hope that they will cut and paste their solution. ....

Addison: 5 hours ago Math ### A variant of Turán–Kubilius inequality Let$\omega(n)$the number of distinct prime factors of$n$(counted without multiplicity). A famous consequence of Turán–Kubilius inequality is $$\sum_{n\leq x}(\omega(n)-\log\log x)^2=O(x\log \log x).$$ However, I am interested in a small variation of the previous result. Indeed, I would like to obtain a similar result to$$....

### Low-dimensional irreducible 2-modular representations of the symmetric group

I apologize if this question is a little too basic for MathOverflow, but it's somewhat outside of my background and I'm frustrated that the answer doesn't seem to be explicit in the literature even though I suspect it's easily known by the experts. What are the lowest-dimensional irreducible representations over ....
