This paper takes a new step in the direction of proving the Duffin-Schaeffer Conjecture for measures arbitrarily close to Lebesgue. The main result is that under a mild `extra divergence' hypothesis, the conjecture is true.
In the present paper, we give a proof of the gap-labelling conjecture for quasi-crystals. The main tools are the measured index theorem for laminations and a naturality of the longitudinal Chern character.
Inspired by the Finn-Osserman (1964), Chern (1969), do Carmo-Peng (1979) proofs of the Bernstein theorem, which characterizes flat planes as the only entire minimal graphs, we prove a new rigidity theorem for associate families connecting…
In 1932 F. Severi claimed, with an incorrect proof, that every smooth minimal projective surface $S$ such that the bundle $\Omega^1_S$ is generically generated by global sections satisfies the topological inequality $2c_1^2(S)\ge c_2(S)$.…
We propose an Artinian version of Berger's Conjecture for curves, concerning the module of K\"ahler differentials of an algebra. Our version implies Berger's Conjecture in characteristic 0. We establish our Artinian Berger Conjecture in a…
We give a sketch for an alternative proof of a recent result by J. Tseng.
We show how the "finite Quot scheme method" applied to Le Potier's strange duality on del Pezzo surfaces leads to conjectures (valid for all smooth complex projective surfaces) relating two sets of universal power series on Hilbert schemes…
Following N. Elkies ("ABC implies Mordell") we show that the abc conjecture of Masser-Oesterle implies an effective version of Siegel's theorem about integral points on algebraic curves, i.e. an upper bound for the S-integral points where…
An old and well-known conjecture of Frankl and F\"{u}redi states that the Lagrangian of an $r$-uniform hypergraph with $m$ edges is maximised by an initial segment of colex. In this paper we disprove this conjecture by finding an infinite…
We study Le Potier's strange duality conjecture on a rational surface. We focus on the case involving the moduli space of rank 2 sheaves with trivial first Chern class and second Chern class 2, and the moduli space of 1-dimensional sheaves…
Some time ago, the chiral algebra theory of Beilinson-Drinfeld was expected to play a central role in the convergence of divergence in mathematical physics of superstring theory for quantization of gauge theory and gravity. Naively, this…
We prove that in a closed Riemannian manifold with dimension between $3$ and $7$, either there are minimal hypersurfaces with arbitrarily large area, or there exist uncountably many stable minimal hypersurfaces. Moreover, the latter case…
In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…
In this survey paper we present recent results obtained by Khare, Wintenberger and the author that have led to a proof of Serre's conjecture, such as existence of compatible families, modular upper bounds for universal deformation rings and…
We prove a conjecture of Toponogov on complete convex planes, namely that such planes must contain an umbilic point, albeit at infinity. Our proof is indirect. It uses Fredholm regularity of an associated Riemann-Hilbert boundary value…
In this paper, we give several new approaches to study interior estimates for a class of fourth order equations of Monge-Amp\`ere type. First, we prove interior estimates for the homogeneous equation in dimension two by using the partial…
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…
We extend Osserman's lemma on the generalized Gauss map of two-dimensional minimal graphs of higher codimension, construct a Jenkins-Serrin type special Lagrangian Scherk graph explicitly, and generalize Calabi's correspondence between…
Thurston's Ending Lamination Conjecture states that a hyperbolic 3-manifold N with finitely generated fundamental group is uniquely determined by its topological type and its end invariants. In this paper we prove this conjecture for…
In 2003, Alfred Menezes, Edlyn Teske and Annegret Weng presented a conjecture on properties of the solutions of a type of quadratic equation over the binary extension fields, which had been convinced by extensive experiments but the proof…
