If we pick two elements of a non-abelian group at random, the odds this pair commutes is at most 5/8, so there is a "gap" between abelian and non-abelian groups \cite{G}. We prove a "topological" generalization estimating the odds a word…
For every integer $k \geq 3$ we construct a $k$-gonal curve $C$ along with a very ample divisor of degree $2g + k - 1$ (where $g$ is the genus of $C$) to which the vanishing statement from the Green-Lazarsfeld gonality conjecture does not…
A density $\alpha\in [0, 1)$ is a jump for $r$ if there is some $c >0$ such that there does not exist a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{F}$ with Tur\'an density $\pi(\mathcal{F})$ in $(\alpha, \alpha + c)$. Erd\"os conjectured…
The main result of this paper is the following. Given countably many multivariate polynomials with rational coefficients and maximum degree $d$, we construct a compact set $E\subset \R^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n/d$ which does not contain…
The Three Gap Theorem states that for any $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and any integer $N \geq 1$, the fractional parts of the sequence $0, \alpha, 2\alpha, \cdots, (N-1)\alpha$ partition the unit interval into $N$ subintervals having at most…
We show a construction for dense 3-uniform linear hypergraphs without $3\times 3$ grids, improving the lower bound on its Tur\'an number.
For any quantum system invariant under gauging a higher-form global symmetry, we construct a non-invertible topological defect by gauging in only half of spacetime. This generalizes the Kramers-Wannier duality line in 1+1 dimensions to…
We observe what the canonical bundle formula gives towards a conjecture of Schnell on algebraic fiber spaces, a question concerning the equivalence between the non-vanishing conjecture and the Campana--Peternell conjecture. As a result, we…
We prove that the first gap of $\mathbb R$-complementary thresholds of surfaces is $\frac{1}{13}$. More precisely, the largest $\mathbb R$-complementary threshold for surfaces that is strictly less than $1$ is $\frac{12}{13}$. This result…
Using elementary pcf, we show that there is no $j:V\to M,$ $M$ transitive, $j\lambda =\lambda >crit(j),$ $j^{\prime \prime}\lambda \in M.$
We prove Manin's conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height for a spherical threefold with canonical singularities and two infinite families of spherical threefolds with log…
The Golomb--Welch conjecture states that there are no perfect $e$-error-correcting codes in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ for $n \ge 3$ and $e \ge 2$. In this note, we prove the nonexistence of perfect $2$-error-correcting codes for a certain class of…
For $E_{b}: y^{2}=x^{3}+b$, we establish Lang's conjecture on a lower bound for the canonical height of non-torsion points along with upper and lower bounds for the difference between the canonical and logarithmic height. In many cases, our…
For any admissible subcategory of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth proper variety, we prove that sections of the canonical bundle impose a strong constraint on the supports of the objects of the subcategory or…
In this note, we extend the notion of minimal gaps to the higher dimensional sequences. We bound the minimal gap for $(\{\boldsymbol{a}_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\}),$ $(\{a_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\})$ and…
We formulate a conjecture on the behavior of the minimal free resolutions of sets of general points on arbitrary varieties embedded by complete linear series, in analogy with the well-known Minimal Resolution Conjecture for points in…
Define $\theta(x)=(x-1)/3$ if $x\geq 1$, and $\theta(x)=2x/(1-x)$ if $x<1$. We conjecture that the orbit of every positive rational number ends in 0. In particular, there does not exist any positive rational fixed point for a map in the…
We prove a sharp lower bound for the fundamental gap on convex domains in Gaussian spaces, the difference between the first two eigenvalues of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our main result establishes…
We prove that the Almgren-Pitts 6-width of the unit 3-ball is less than $2\pi$. We also prove that there exists a free boundary minimal surface in the unit 3-ball that has genus at most 1, index at most 5, area less than $2\pi$, and is not…
We give negative answers to Lin-Ni's conjecture for any four and six dimensional domains. No condition on the symmetry, geometry nor topology of the domain is needed.
