This is an update on, and expansion of, our paper Open problems on $\beta\omega$ in the book Open Problems in Topology.
We first propose two conjectural estimates on Diophantine approximation of logarithms of algebraic numbers. Next we discuss the state of the art and we give further partial results on this topic.
In this note some philosophical thoughts and observations about mathematics are expressed, arranged as challenges to some common claims.
In this survey article we discuss key open problems which could serve as a guidance for further research directions of multiplicative ideal theory and factorization theory.
Problems in additive number theory related to sum and difference sets, more general binary linear forms, and representation functions of additive bases for the integers and nonnegative integers.
In this short paper we propose four conjectures in synthetic geometry that generalize Erdos-Mordell Theorem, and three conjectures in number theory that generalize Fermat Numbers.
Erd\H{o}s posed the question whether there exist infinitely many sets of consecutive numbers whose least common multiple (lcm) exceeds the lcm of another, larger set with greater consecutive numbers. In this paper, we answer this question…
We present some questions and suggestion on the second part of the Hilbert 16th problem
This note presents a new proof of the well-known Strichartz estimates for the Schr\"odinger equation in $2+1$ dimensions, building on ideas from our recent work \cite{MO}.
The Erd\H{o}s discrepancy problem, now a theorem by T. Tao, asks whether every sequence with values plus or minus one has unbounded discrepancy along all homogeneous arithmetic progressions. We establish weighted variants of this problem,…
We give short elementary expositions of combinatorial proofs of some variants of Euler's partitition problem that were first addressed analytically by George Andrews, and later combinatorially by others. Our methods, based on ideas from a…
We describe a list of open problems in random matrix theory and the theory of integrable systems that was presented at the conference Asymptotics in Integrable Systems, Random Matrices and Random Processes and Universality, Centre de…
The purpose of this note is to raise two different questions, which are rarely if ever considered, and to which, it seems, we lack convincing, systematic answers. These questions can be posed as: - Why do we compute? - What do we compute?…
Here are a few random thoughts on the interpretations of the quantum double slit experiment, the Mach Zehnder experiment, the delayed-choice experiment and the measurement problem.
In this paper some new characterizing theorems of exponential distribution based on order statistics are presented. Some existing results are generalized and the open conjecture by Arnold and Villasenor is solved.
This brief note gives a survey on results relating to existence of closed points on schemes, including an elementary topological characterization of the schemes with (at least one) closed point.
We review fundamental open problems in neutrino physics and propose two basic experiments for their possible resolution.
This note is the written version of conversations with young colleagues on unofficial history, general ideas, unexpected facts and open problems concerning tilting theory.
We provide empirical evidence for the Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture by improving computational bounds to $10^{18}$ and by evaluating the solution-counting function $f(p)$ for this conjecture.
These notes concern linear transformations on R^n and C^n, exponentials of linear transformations, and some related geometric questions.
