The Schinzel Hypothesis is a conjecture about irreducible polynomials in one variable over the integers: under some standard condition, they should assume infinitely many prime values at integers. We consider a relative version: if the…

We observe that every self-dual ternary code determines a holomorphic N=1 superconformal field theory. This provides ternary constructions of some well-known holomorphic N=1 SCFTs, including Duncan's "supermoonshine" model and the fermionic…

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…

Chv\'{a}tal's conjecture in extremal combinatorics asserts that for any decreasing family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of a finite set $S$, there is a largest intersecting subfamily of $\mathcal{F}$ consisting of all members of $\mathcal{F}$…

Fix an integer $t \geq 2$ and a primitive $t^{\text{th}}$ root of unity $\omega$. We consider the specialized skew hook Schur polynomial $\text{hs}_{\lambda/\mu}(X,\omega X,\dots,\omega^{t-1}X/Y,\omega Y,\dots,\omega^{t-1}Y)$, where…

In the late 1980s, A. Premet conjectured that the variety of nilpotent elements of any finite dimensional restricted Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ is irreducible. This conjecture remains open, but it…

In this paper, we study a new cyclic sieving phenomenon on the set $\mathsf{SST}_n(\lambda)$ of semistandard Young tableaux with the cyclic action $\mathsf{c}$ arising from its $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$-crystal structure. We prove that if…

A class of one-dimensional reflectionless potentials, an absolute transparency of which is concerned with their belonging to one SUSY-hierarchy with a constant potential, is studied. An approach for determination of a general form of the…

3d Chern-Simons gauge theory has a strong connection with 2d CFT and link invariants in knot theory. We impose some constraints on the $D(2|1;\alpha)$ CS theory in the similar context of the hamiltonian reduction of 2d superconformal…

We show that CC-circuits of bounded depth have the same expressive power as circuits over finite nilpotent algebras from congruence modular varieties. We use this result to phrase and discuss a new algebraic version of Barrington, Straubing…

This paper, and its companion [BCV24], are devoted to a negative resolution of the Aldous--Lyons Conjecture [AL07, Ald07]. This conjecture, originated in probability theory, is well known (cf. [Gel18]) to be equivalent to the statement that…

The set-theoretic axiom WISC states that for every set there is a set of surjections to it cofinal in all such surjections. By constructing an unbounded topos over the category of sets and using an extension of the internal logic of a topos…

We demonstrate the truth of the sunflower conjecture by showing that a family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets each of cardinality at most $m$ includes a $k$-sunflower, if $|\mathcal{F}| > ( c k )^{2m}$ for a constant $c>0$ independent of $m$ and $k$,…

A theoretical framework supported by literature reported experimental evidence (Homes, Harshman along with Voyager, Hubble and EGRET space platforms and others) is presented which indicates that superconductivity is a self energy phenomenon…

We give an independent set of size $367$ in the fifth strong product power of $C_7$, where $C_7$ is the cycle on $7$ vertices. This leads to an improved lower bound on the Shannon capacity of $C_7$: $\Theta(C_7)\geq 367^{1/5} > 3.2578$. The…

Let G be an additive abelian group whose finite subgroups are all cyclic. Let A_1,...,A_n (n>1) be finite subsets of G with cardinality k>0, and let b_1,...,b_n be pairwise distinct elements of G with odd order. We show that for every…

The following conjecture has been known for many decades as Schiffer's symmetry problem (or Schiffer's conjecture): Assume that $\Delta u+k^2u=0$ in $D$, $u|_S=0$, $u_N|_S=1$, where $D\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ is a bounded, connected,…

Coulomb branch chiral rings of $\mathcal N=2$ SCFTs are conjectured to be freely generated. While no counter-example is known, no direct evidence for the conjecture is known either. We initiate a systematic study of SCFTs with Coulomb…

A graph is well-covered if all its maximal independent sets are of the same cardinality (Plummer, 1970). If G is a well-covered graph, has at least two vertices, and G-v is well-covered for every vertex v, then G is a 1-well-covered graph…

We revisit the Scalar Weak Gravity Conjecture and investigate the possibility to impose that scalar interactions dominate over gravitational ones. More precisely, we look for consequences of assuming that, for leading scalar interactions,…
