The McCarty Conjecture states that any McCarty Matrix (an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with positive integer entries and each of the $2n$ row and column sums equal to $n$), can be additively decomposed into two other matrices, $B$ and $C$, such…

We study meromorphic jacobian pairs, i.e., pairs of polynomials in one variable, with coefficients meromorphic series in a second variable, whose jacobian relative to the two variables depends only on the second variable. We pose two…

We first propose what we call the Gaussian Moments Conjecture. We then show that the Jacobian Conjecture follows from the Gaussian Moments Conjecture. We also give a counter-example to a more general statement known as the Moments Vanishing…

Let $Z$ be a finite set of $s$ points in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ over an algebraically closed field $F$. For each positive integer $m$, let $\alpha(mZ)$ denote the smallest degree of nonzero homogeneous polynomials in…

Introduced by Goulden and Jackson in their 1996 paper, the matchings-Jack conjecture and the hypermap-Jack conjecture (also known as the $b$-conjecture) are two major open questions relating Jack symmetric functions, the representation…

It is well known that the integral identity conjecture is of prime importance in Kontsevich-Soibelman's theory of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants for non-commutative Calabi-Yau threfolds. In this article we consider its numerical…

Let $X=(x_{ij})$ and $Y=(y_{ij})$ be generic $n$ by $n$ matrices and $Z=XY-YX$. Let $S=k[x_{11},...,x_{nn},y_{11},...,y_{nn}]$, where $k$ is a field, let $I$ be the ideal generated by the entries of $Z$ and let $R=S/I$. We give a conjecture…

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…

The main result of this paper is the following version of the real Jacobian conjecture: "Let $F=(p,q):\R^2\to\R^2$ be a polynomial map with nowhere zero Jacobian determinant. If the degree of $p$ is less than or equal to $4$, then $F$ is…

The two-dimensional Jacobian Conjecture says that a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra endomorphism $F:\mathbb{C}[x,y] \to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ that has an invertible Jacobian is an automorphism. We show that if a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra endomorphism…

A Latin tableau of shape $\lambda$ and type $\mu$ is a Young diagram of shape $\lambda$ in which each box contains a single positive integer, with no repeated integers in any row or column, and the $i$th most common integer appearing…

A conjecture of Kac states that the polynomial counting the number of absolutely indecomposable representations of a quiver over a finite field with given dimension vector has positive coefficients and furthermore that its constant term is…

Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$ and $I$ is an ideal in $A$. Then M. P. Murthy conjectured that $\mu(I)=\mu(I/I^2)$, where $\mu$ denotes the minimal number of generators. Recently, Fasel \cite{F}…

The Akbari-Cameron-Khosrovshahi (ACK) conjecture, which appears to be unresolved, states that for any simple graph $G$ with at least one edge, there exists a nonzero {$\{0,1\}$}-vector in the row space of its adjacency matrix that is not a…

A recent conjecture by C. Carlet on the sum-freedom of the binary multiplicative inverse function can be stated as follows: For each pair of positive integers $(n,k)$ with $3\le k\le n-3$, there is a $k$-dimensional $\Bbb F_2$-subspace $E$…

We reduce the Mathieu conjecture for $SU(2)$ to a conjecture about moments of Laurent polynomials in two variables with single variable polynomial coefficients.

Implementations of known reductions of the Strong Real Jacobian Conjecture (SRJC), to the case of an identity map plus cubic homogeneous or cubic linear terms, and to the case of gradient maps, are shown to preserve significant algebraic…

The Fagundes-Mello conjecture asserts that every multilinear polynomial on upper triangular matrix algebras is a vector space, which is an improtant variation of the old and famous Lvov-Kaplansky conjecture. The goal of the paper is to give…

In this paper, we generalize the Cosmetic Surgery Conjecture to an $n$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold and prove it under the assumption of another well-known conjecture in number theory, so called the Zilber-Pink Conjecture. For $n=1$ and…

In the paper, we prove that the derivation $D=y\partial_x+(a_2(x)y^2+a_1(x)y+a_0(x))\partial_y$ of $K[x,y]$ with $a_2(x),a_1(x),a_0(x)\in K[x]$ is simple iff the following conditions hold: $(1)$ $a_0(x)\in K^*$, $(2)$ $\deg a_1(x)\geq1$ or…
