We prove the second author's "denominator conjecture" [40] concerning the common denominators of coefficients of certain linear forms in zeta values. These forms were recently constructed to obtain lower bounds for the dimension of the…

Valid hook configurations are combinatorial objects used to understand West's stack-sorting map. We extend existing bijections corresponding valid hook configurations to intervals in partial orders on Motzkin paths. To enumerate valid hook…

We give a counterexample to a conjecture made by Cigler, Jerman and Wojciechowski stating that all posets are conclusive. We also provide combinatorial characterizations for conclusiveness of finite posets and the existence of outer…

Let $d\geq 2$, $A \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ be finite and not contained in a translate of any hyperplane, and $q \in \mathbb{Z}$ such that $|q| > 1$. We show $$|A+ q \cdot A| \geq (|q|+d+1)|A| - O_{q,d}(1).$$

Let (W,S) be a Coxeter system of finite rank (ie |S| is finite) and let A be the associated Coxeter (or Davis) complex. We study chains of pairwise parallel walls in A using Tits' bilinear form associated to the standard root system of…

We prove a conjecture of Okada giving an exact formula for a certain statistic for hook-lengths of partitions: \frac{1}{n!} \sum_{\lambda \vdash n} f_{\lambda}^2 \sum_{u \in \lambda} \prod_{i=1}^{r}(h_u^2 - i^2) = \frac{1}{2(r+1)^2}…

The spectrum of integrable models is often encoded in terms of commuting functions of a spectral parameter that satisfy functional relations. We propose to describe this commutative algebra in a covariant way by means of the extended…

A formula is proved for the number of linear factors and irreducible cubic factors over $\mathbb{F}_l$ of the Hasse invariant $\hat H_{7,l}(a)$ of the Tate normal form $E_7(a)$ for a point of order $7$, as a polynomial in the parameter $a$,…

Let $p_t(a,b;n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ such that the number of $t$ hooks is congruent to $a \bmod{b}$. For $t\in \{2, 3\}$, arithmetic progressions $r_1 \bmod{m_1}$ and $r_2 \bmod{m_2}$ on which $p_t(r_1,m_1; m_2 n + r_2)$…

We study the Mumford--Tate conjecture for hyperk\"{a}hler varieties. We show that the full conjecture holds for all varieties deformation equivalent to either an Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface or to O'Grady's ten dimensional…

We prove that if $G$ is an abelian group and $H_1x_1,\dots,H_{k}x_k$ is an irredundant (minimal) cover of $G$ with cosets, then $$|G:\bigcap_{i=1}^{k}H_{i}|=2^{O(k)}.$$ This bound is the best possible up to the constant hidden in the…

Here we prove that Reed Conjecture is valid for {P5, Flag_Complement}-free graphs where FlagComplement is the complement of the Flag graph. Some of the known results follow as corollaries to our result. Reed conjecture is still open in…

In recent papers we have refined a conjecture of Lehrer and Solomon expressing the character of a finite Coxeter group $W$ acting on the $p$th graded component of its Orlik-Solomon algebra as a sum of characters induced from linear…

We prove the Morrison--Kawamata cone conjecture for projective primitive symplectic varieties with $\Q$-factorial and terminal singularities with $b_2\geq 5$, from which we derive for instance the finiteness of minimal models of such…

We prove a general combinatorial formula yielding the intersection number $c_{u,v}^w$ of three particular $\Lambda$-minuscule Schubert classes in any Kac-Moody homogeneous space, generalising the Littlewood-Richardson rule. The…

We prove a conjecture of Gao and Kitaev on Wilf-equivalence of sets of patterns {12345,12354} and {45123,45213} that extends the list of 10 related conjectures proved in the literature in a series of papers. To achieve our goals, we prove…

For a totally positive definite quadratic form over the ring of integers of a totally real number field $K$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real field extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree over which the form is universal…

The set of isotopy classes of nontrivial torus knots $T(p,q)$ in $S^3$ is in bijection with the set of coprime integer pairs $(p,q)$ satisfying $|p|>q\geq 2$. We verify the AJ conjecture for the connected sums $T(p,q)\# T(a,b)$ when $p$ and…

We say two posets are "doppelg\"angers" if they have the same number of $P$-partitions of each height $k$. We give a uniform framework for bijective proofs that posets are doppelg\"angers by synthesizing $K$-theoretic Schubert calculus…

The Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres conjecture states that any set of more than $2^{n-2}$ points in the plane with no three on a line contains the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. Erd\H{o}s, Tuza, and Valtr strengthened the conjecture by stating that any…
