The Spectral Edges Conjecture is a well-known and widely believed conjecture in the theory of discrete periodic operators. It states that the extrema of the dispersion relation are isolated, non-degenerate, and occur in a single band. We…

Hartshorne conjectured that a smooth, codimension c subvariety of n-dimensional projective space must be a complete intersection, whenever c is less than n/3. We prove this in the special case when n is much larger than the degree of the…

We prove that the Fourier cosine series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{k+1}\frac{r^k\cos{k\phi}}{k+2}$ assumes its maximum value at $\phi = 0$ for $\phi \in [0, \pi)$ regardless of $r$ if $r \in (0, 1]$. This was first proved by Arias de Reyna…

We formulate the Secant Conjecture, which is a generalization of the Shapiro Conjecture for Grassmannians. It asserts that an intersection of Schubert varieties in a Grassmannian is transverse with all points real, if the flags defining the…

Zeros of Bessel functions $J_\alpha$ play an important role in physics. They are a motivation for studying zeros of exponential polynomials defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and more generally of $E$-functions. In this paper we…

In 1991, Baker and Harman proved, under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis, that $\max_{ \theta \in [0,1) }\left|\sum_{ n \leq x } \mu(n) e(n \theta) \right| \ll_\epsilon x^{3/4 + \epsilon}$. The purpose of this note is to…

We prove that the conjecture made by Peter Frankl in the late 1970s is true. In other words for every finite union-closed family which contains a non?empty set, there is an element that belongs to at least half of its m

The Onsager's conjecture has two parts: conservation of energy, if the exponent is larger than $1/3$ and the possibility of dissipative Euler solutions, if the exponent is less or equal than $1/3$. The paper proves half of the conjecture,…

In 2000, Kadell gave an orthogonality conjecture for a symmetric function generalization of the $q$-Dyson constant term identity or the Zeilberger--Bressoud $q$-Dyson theorem. The non-zero part of Kadell's orthogonality conjecture is a…

The Shuffle Theorem of Carlsson and Mellit gives a combinatorial expression for the bigraded Frobenius characteristic of the ring of diagonal harmonics, and the Delta Conjecture of Haglund, Remmel and the second author provides two…

We consider the inner limit system describing the phase separation in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates linearized around the one-dimensional solution in an infinite strip with zero and periodic boundary conditions, and obtain optimal…

We consider the question of the correlation of Fourier coefficients of modular forms with functions of algebraic origin. We establish the absence of correlation in considerable generality (with a power saving of Burgess type) and a…

We propose a relative trace formula approach and state the corresponding fundamental lemma toward the global restriction problem involving Bessel or Fourier-Jacobi periods of unitary groups $\mathrm{U}_n\times\mathrm{U}_m$, extending the…

The Frankl conjecture, also known as the union-closed sets conjecture, states that in any finite non-empty union-closed family, there exists an element in at least half of the sets. From an optimization point of view, one could instead…

The 1-2-3 Conjecture, posed in 2004 by Karonski, Luczak, and Thomason, is as follows: "If G is a graph with no connected component having exactly 2 vertices, then the edges of G may be assigned weights from the set {1,2,3} so that, for any…

A new simple way to prove the Frobenius conjecture on the dimensions of real algebras without zero divisors is given.

We obtain some new upper bounds on the maximum number $f(n)$ of edges in $n$-vertex graphs without containing cycles of length four. This leads to an asymptotically optimal bound on $f(n)$ for a broad range of integers $n$ as well as a…

We consider the coefficients in the series expansion at zero of the Weierstrass sigma function \[ \sigma(z) = z \sum_{i, j \geqslant 0} {a_{i,j} \over (4 i + 6 j + 1)!} \left({g_2 z^4 \over 2}\right)^i \left(2 g_3 z^6\right)^j. \] We have…

In this paper we resolve a conjecture of Kresch and Tamvakis. Our result is the following. Theorem: For any positive integer $D$ and any integers $i,j$ $(0\leq i,j \leq D)$, the absolute value of the following hypergeometric series is at…

In a digraph, a quasi-kernel is a subset of vertices that is independent and such that the shortest path from every vertex to this subset is of length at most two. The ``small quasi-kernel conjecture,'' proposed by Erd\H{o}s and Sz\'ekely…
