We derive some Positivstellensatz\"e for noncommutative rational expressions from the Positivstellensatz\"e for noncommutative polynomials. Specifically, we show that if a noncommutative rational expression is positive on a polynomially…
In this paper, we provide a combinatorial interpretation for Laurent polynomials obtained by iteratively mutating a certain periodic quiver that has been framed with frozen vertices. This yields a family of cluster variables with principal…
The statement ``no nonabelian simple group can be obtained from a nonsimple group by adding one generator and one relator" 1) is equivalent to the Kervaire--Laudenbach conjecture; 2) becomes true under the additional assumption that the…
We develop a probabilistic approach to the celebrated Jacobian conjecture, which states that any Keller map (i.e. any polynomial mapping $F\colon \mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}^n$ whose Jacobian determinant is a nonzero constant) has a…
We formulate a series of conjectures on the stable tensor product of irreducible representations of symmetric groups, which are closely related to the reduced Kronecker coefficients. These conjectures are certain generalizations of…
In 2018 Kashaev introduced a diagrammatic link invariant conjectured to be twice the Levine-Tristram signature. If true, the conjecture would provide a simple way of computing the Levine-Tristram signature of a link by taking the signature…
We study iteration maps of recurrence relations arising from mutation periodic quivers of arbitrary period. Combining tools from cluster algebra theory and (pre)symplectic geometry, we show that these cluster iteration maps can be reduced…
We study the rational Kontsevich integral of torus knots. We construct explicitely a series of diagrams made of circles joined together in a tree-like fashion and colored by some special rational functions. We show that this series codes…
In this paper we consider an appropriate ordering of the Laurent monomials $x^{i}y^{j}$, $i,j \in \mathbb{Z}$ that allows us to study sequences of orthogonal Laurent polynomials of the real variables $x$ and $y$ with respect to a positive…
We give a new proof of a sumset conjecture of Furstenberg that was first proved by Hochman and Shmerkin in 2012: if $\log r / \log s$ is irrational and $X$ and $Y$ are $\times r$- and $\times s$-invariant subsets of $[0,1]$, respectively,…
The combinatorial invariance conjecture (due independently to G. Lusztig and M. Dyer) predicts that if $[x,y]$ and $[x',y']$ are isomorphic Bruhat posets (of possibly different Coxeter systems), then the corresponding Kazhdan-Lusztig…
We consider quivers/skew-symmetric matrices under the action of mutation (in the cluster algebra sense). We classify those which are isomorphic to their own mutation via a cycle permuting all the vertices, and give families of quivers which…
A proof for a conjecture by Shadrin and Zvonkine, relating the entries of a matrix arising in the study of Hurwitz numbers to a certain sequence of rational numbers, is given. The main tools used are iteration matrices of formal power…
In this note we prove that Kontsevich's category NCnum of noncommutative numerical motives is equivalent to the one constructed by the authors. As a consequence, we conclude that NCnum is abelian semi-simple as conjectured by Kontsevich.
The aim of this paper is to use the methods and results of symplectic homogenization (see [V4]) to prove existence of periodic orbits and invariant measures with rotation number depending on the differential of the Homogenized Hamiltonian.…
The goal of this paper is to lay the foundations for a combinatorial study, via orthogonal functions and intertwining operators, of category O for the rational Cherednik algebra of type G(r,p,n). As a first application, we give a…
We represent the generalized Collatz function with the recursive ruler function r(2n) = r(n) + 1 and r(2n + 1) = 1. We generate even-only and odd-only Collatz subsequences that contain significantly fewer elements term by term, to 2 and 1,…
By associating a `motivic integral' to every complex projective variety X with at worst canonical, Gorenstein singularities, Kontsevich proved that, when there exists a crepant resolution of singularities Y of X, the Hodge numbers of Y do…
This survey covers some of the recent developments on noncommutative motives and their applications. Among other topics, we compute the additive invariants of relative cellular spaces and orbifolds; prove Kontsevich's semi-simplicity…
The principal minors of the Toeplitz matrix $\left( x_{i-j+1}\right)_{1\le i,j,\le n}$, where $x_0=1, x_k=0$ if $k\le -1$, directly determine an involution of the polynomial ring $R[x_1, ... ,x_n]$ over any commutative ring $R$.
