In this work, we study the arithmetic nature of the numbers of the form $n^{\g}$, for $n \in \N$ and $\g\in \C$. We also consider a related conjecture and we show that it is a consequence of the unipresent Schanuel's conjecture.
For each parabolic subgroup $P$ of the general linear group $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$, a conjecture due to Lewis, Reiner and Stanton \cite{LewisReinerStanton2017} predicts a formula for the Hilbert series of the space of invariants…
The $abc$ conjecture predicts a highly non trivial upper bound for the height of an algebraic point in terms of its discriminant and its intersection with a fixed divisor of the projective line counted without multiplicity. We describe the…
Let S be a smooth projective surface equipped with a line bundle H. Lehn's conjecture is a formula for the top Segre class of the tautological bundle associated to H on the Hilbert scheme of points of S. Voisin has recently reduced Lehn's…
Assuming the four exponentials conjecture, Hansel and Safer showed that if a subset $S$ of the Gaussian integers is both $\alpha=-m+i $- and $\beta=-n+i$-recognizable, then it is syndetic, and they conjectured that $S$ must be eventually…
The tensor square conjecture states that for $n \geq 10$, there is an irreducible representation $V$ of the symmetric group $S_n$ such that $V \otimes V$ contains every irreducible representation of $S_n$. Our main result is that for large…
Let H be a discrete cocompact subgroup of SL_2(C). We conjecture that the quotient manifold X=SL_2(C)/H contains infinitely many non-isogeneous elliptic curves and prove that this is indeed the case if Schanuel's conjecture holds. We also…
In this paper, we investigate the relative power of several conjectures that attracted recently lot of interest. We establish a connection between the Network Coding Conjecture (NCC) of Li and Li and several data structure like problems…
Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture [Progr. Math. 120 (1994)] claims a strong submultiplicative upper bound on the rank of a three-tensor obtained as an iterated Kronecker product of a constant-size base tensor. The conjecture, if true,…
We observe what the canonical bundle formula gives towards a conjecture of Schnell on algebraic fiber spaces, a question concerning the equivalence between the non-vanishing conjecture and the Campana--Peternell conjecture. As a result, we…
The `Schottky Conjecture' deals with the electrostatic field enhancement at the tip of compound structures such as a hemiellipsoid on top of a hemisphere. For such a 2-primitive compound structure, the apex field enhancement factor…
In this note, given a pair $(\mathfrak{g}, \lambda)$, where $\mathfrak{g}$ is a complex semisimple Lie algebra and $\lambda \in \mathfrak{h}^*$ is a dominant integral weight of $\mathfrak{g}$, where $\mathfrak{h} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ is…
The Helton-Nie Conjecture (HNC) is the proposition that every convex semialgebraic set is a spectrahedral shadow. Here we prove that HNC is equivalent to another propo- sition related to quadratically constrained quadratic programming.…
We revisit a double-scaled limit of the superconformal index of ${\cal N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) which generalizes the Schur index. The resulting partition function, $\hat {\cal Z}(q,\alpha)$, has a standard $q$-expansion…
We prove Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture (KSC) and Shibata's conjecture on ample canonical heights for endomorphisms on several classes of algebraic varieties including varieties of Fano type and projective toric varieties. We also prove KSC…
We study the action of a differential operator on Schubert polynomials. Using this action, we first give a short new proof of an identity of I. Macdonald (1991). We then prove a determinant conjecture of R. Stanley (2017). This conjecture…
Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ elements, and $\Sigma\subseteq S_{n}$ a symmetric subset of permutations. Aldous' spectral gap conjecture, proved by Caputo, Liggett and Richthammer [arXiv:0906.1238], states that if $\Sigma$ is a…
We prove that for any integers $\alpha, \beta > 1$, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z}; 0,1,<, +, \alpha^{\mathbb{N}}, \beta^{\mathbb{N}}\rangle$ is decidable (where $\alpha^{\mathbb{N}}$…
We give a simple proof of the relation $\Lambda\p_artial{\Lambda}\F= {i\over2\pi}b_1\langle\Tr\phi^2\rangle$, which is valid for $N=2$ supersymmetric QCD with massless quarks. We consider $SU(N_c)$ gauge theories as well as $SO(N_c)$ and…
In this note, I propose the following conjecture: a finite group G is nilpotent if and only if its largest quotient B-group \beta(G) is nilpotent. I give a proof of this conjecture under the additional assumption that G be solvable. I also…
