We obtain new partial results supporting the spectral set conjecture in dimension 1.
We point out that the recursive formula that appears in Erickson's presentation "Fusible Numbers" is incorrect, and pose an alternate conjecture about the structure of fusible numbers. Although we are unable to solve the conjecture, we…
Even though Zaremba's conjecture remains open, Bourgain and Kontorovich solved the problem for a full density subset. Nevertheless, there are only a handful of explicit sequences known to satisfy the strong version of the conjecture, all of…
The union-closed sets conjecture, also known as Frankl's conjecture, is a well-studied problem with various formulations. In terms of lattices, the conjecture states that every finite lattice $L$ with more than one element contains a…
We generalize classical triangular Schubert puzzles to puzzles with convex polygonal boundary. We give these puzzles a geometric Schubert calculus interpretation and derive novel combinatorial commutativity statements, using purely…
We give direct and inverse theorems for the weighted approximation of functions with inner singularities by combinations of Bernstein polynomials.
We introduce common generalization of (double) Schubert, Grothendieck, Demazure, dual and stable Grothendieck polynomials, and Di Francesco-Zinn-Justin polynomials. Our approach is based on the study of algebraic and combinatorial…
Some properties of generalized convexity for sets and for functions are identified in case of the reliability polynomials of two dual minimal networks. A method of approximating the reliability polynomials of two dual minimal network is…
We discuss adjunction formulas for fiber spaces and embeddings, extending the known results along the lines of the Adjunction Conjecture, independently proposed by Y. Kawamata and V.V. Shokurov. As an application, we simplify Koll\'ar's…
The monodromy conjecture states that every pole of the topological (or related) zeta function induces an eigenvalue of monodromy. This conjecture has already been studied a lot; however, in full generality it is proven only for zeta…
We present two related conjectures, arising in work on i-matchings in random r-regular bipartite graphs. The conjectures themselves are easily stated and involve only basic properties of convergent power series. One formulation involves…
We prove new quantitative bounds on the additive structure of sets obeying an $L^3$ 'control' assumption, which arises naturally in several questions within additive combinatorics. This has a number of applications - in particular we…
Freiman's theorem gives a lower bound for the cardinality of the doubling of a finite set in $\RR^n$. In this paper we give an interpretation of his theorem for monomial ideals and their fiber cones. We call a quasi-equigenerated monomial…
In the field of the Jacobian conjecture it is well-known after Druzkowski that from a polynomial "cubic-homogeneous" mapping we can build a higher-dimensional "cubic-linear" mapping and the other way round, so that one of them is invertible…
In this short note, we find an equivalent combinatorial condition only involving finite sums under which a centered Gaussian random vector with multinomial covariance matrix satisfies the Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture. These…
We give an equivalent form of the Twin prime conjecture relating to a symmetric property that is observed for terms present in a certain sequence of arithmetic progressions defined for a pair of co-prime integers.
The monodromy conjecture is a mysterious open problem in singularity theory. Its original version relates arithmetic and topological/geometric properties of a multivariate polynomial $f$ over the integers, more precisely, poles of the…
We prove an equivalence between a conjecture of Neumann and Praeger on Kronecker classes in algebraic number fields, and a conjecture on cliques of derangement graphs in combinatorics.
In this paper we study the structure of polynomials of degree three and four that have high bias or high Gowers norm, over arbitrary prime fields. In particular we obtain the following results. 1. We give a canonical representation for…
Collatz Conjecture (also known as Ulam's conjecture and 3x+1 problem) concerns the behavior of the iterates of a particular function on natural numbers. A number of generalizations of the conjecture have been subjected to extensive study.…
