Two results concerning the number of threshold functions $P(2, n)$ and the probability ${\mathbb P}_n$ that a random $n\times n$ Bernoulli matrix is singular are established. We introduce a supermodular function $\eta^{\bigstar}_n : 2^{{\bf…
A Banaschewski function on a bounded lattice L is an antitone self-map of L that picks a complement for each element of L. We prove a set of results that include the following: (1) Every countable complemented modular lattice has a…
In the recent article arXiv:1606.03351, Apagodu and Zeilberger discuss some applications of an algorithm for finding and proving congruence identities (modulo primes) of indefinite sums of many combinatorial sequence. At the end they…
We give short and simple proofs of what seem to be folklore results: * the maximum cardinality of the intersection of a lattice cube with an affine subspace; * the minimum number of affine subspaces needed to cover a lattice cube.
In this paper, we extend properties Going Up and Lying Over from ring theory to the general setting of congruence--modular equational classes, using the notion of prime congruence defined through the commutator. We show how these two…
We prove the Hot Spot conjecture on the Vicsek set. Specifically, we show that every eigenfunction of the second smallest eigenvalue of the Neumann Laplacian on the Vicsek set attains its maximum and minimum on the boundary.
A modular form on an even lattice $M$ of signature $(l,2)$ is called reflective if it vanishes only on quadratic divisors orthogonal to roots of $M$. In this paper we show that every reflective modular form on a lattice of type $2U\oplus L$…
J.C.Lagarias (2000) conjectured that if $\mu$ is a complex measure on p-dimensional Euclidean space with a uniformly discrete support and its spectrum (Fourier transform) is also a measure with a uniformly discrete support, then the support…
The Umbral Moonshine Conjectures assert that there are infinite-dimensional graded modules, for prescribed finite groups, whose McKay-Thompson series are certain distinguished mock modular forms. Gannon has proved this for the special case…
Given a graph $G$ in which each edge fails independently with probability $q\in[0,1],$ the all-terminal reliability of $G$ is the probability that all vertices of $G$ can communicate with one another, that is, the probability that the…
We prove that if a unimodular random graph is almost surely planar and has finite expected degree, then it has a combinatorial embedding into the plane which is also unimodular. This implies the claim in the title immediately by a theorem…
We review a lattice construction arising from quaternion algebras over number fields and use it to obtain some known extremal and densest lattices in dimensions 8 and 16. The benefit of using quaternion algebras over number fields is that…
We investigate the almost sure asymptotic properties of vector martingale transforms. Assuming some appropriate regularity conditions both on the increasing process and on the moments of the martingale, we prove that normalized moments of…
Let $(L; \sqcap, \sqcup)$ be a finite lattice and let $n$ be a positive integer. A function $f : L^n \to \mathbb{R}$ is said to be submodular if $f(\tup{a} \sqcap \tup{b}) + f(\tup{a} \sqcup \tup{b}) \leq f(\tup{a}) + f(\tup{b})$ for all…
The notion of unboundedly order converges has been recieved recently a particular attention by several authors. The main result of the present paper shows that the notion is efficient and deserves that care. It states that a vector lattice…
The paper [GLZ] "L-functions of Carlitz modules, resultantal varieties and rooted binary trees" is devoted to a description of some resultantal varieties related to L-functions of Carlitz modules. It contains a conjecture that some of these…
We conjecture unimodality for some sequences of generalized Kronecker coefficients and prove it for partitions with at most two columns. The proof is based on a hard Lefschetz property for corresponding highest weight spaces. We also study…
We prove a strengthened form of a conjecture of Sun on a determinant attached to a binary quadratic form. Let $n>3$ and let $c,d\in\Z$. If $n$ is composite, then \[ \det\big[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{n-2}\big]_{0\leq i,j\leq n-1}\equiv 0\pmod {n^2}…
We prove that the $abc$-Conjecture implies upper bounds on Zsigmondy sets that are uniform over families of unicritical polynomials over number fields. As an application, we use the $abc$-Conjecture to prove that there exist uniform bounds…
The Bourque-Ligh conjecture states that if $S=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ is a gcd-closed set of positive integers with distinct elements, then the LCM matrix $[S]=[\hbox{lcm}(x_i,x_j)]$ is invertible. It is well known that this conjecture…
