We exhibit a linear threshold function in 5 variables with strictly smaller noise stability (for small values of the correlation parameter) than the majority function on 5 variables, thereby providing a counterexample to the "Majority is…

On networks representing probability currents between states of a system, we generalize Schnakenberg's theory of nonequilibrium observables to nonsteady states, with the introduction of a new set of macroscopic observables that, for planar…

We disprove a 2002 conjecture of Dombi from additive number theory. More precisely, we find examples of sets $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with the property that $\mathbb{N} \setminus A$ is infinite, but the sequence $n \rightarrow |\{ (a,b,c) \,…

It is noted that conjectures about the non-existence of universal compacta and compactifications of the given extension dimension for non finitely dominated complexes are not valid for all CW complexes of the form $L \vee S^{2}$, where $L$…

We use reduction maps to study the minimal model program. Our main result is that the existence of a good minimal model for a klt pair $(X,\Delta)$ can be detected on the base of the $(K_{X}+\Delta)$-trivial reduction map. Thus we show that…

We show that given any two minimal models of a generalized lc pair, there exist small birational models which are connected by a sequence of symmetric flops. We also present some applications.

In this note we elaborate on a recent counter-example to the Nelson-Seiberg theorem and to its generalizations. We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of such counter-examples, finding new ones. We claim that these…

In this paper, we prove a minimal modularity lifting theorem for Galois representations (conjecturally) associated to Siegel modular forms of genus two which are holomorphic limits of discrete series at infinity.

In this paper we establish the convergence case of Khintchine's theorem for affine hyperplanes in function field of positive characteristic. Along with that, we also prove a quantitative version of the same. The main technique used in the…

In this short note we give counterexamples to several results related to extension theorems published recently.

It is shown for all local fields $\mathbb{F}$ which are of characteristic different from $2$ that any distribution on $GL_{n+1}(\mathbb{F})$ which is invariant under conjugation by $GL_n(\mathbb{F})$ is also invariant under transposition.…

Let $r(k,A,n)$ denote the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of $k$ elements of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$. In 2002, Dombi conjectured that if $A$ is co-infinite, then the sequence $(r(k,A,n))_{n \geq 0}$ cannot be strictly…

We prove that the finite generation of adjoint rings proved in [Cascini and Lazi\'c] implies all the foundational results of the Minimal Model Program: the Rationality, Cone and Contraction theorems, the existence of flips, and termination…

Galles and Pearl claimed that "for recursive models, the causal model framework does not add any restrictions to counterfactuals, beyond those imposed by Lewis's [possible-worlds] framework." This claim is examined carefully, with the goal…

The uniqueness theorem for a two-parameter extended relative entropy is proven. This result extends our previous one, the uniqueness theorem for a one-parameter extended relative entropy, to a two-parameter case. In addition, the properties…

In this paper we consider birational properties of ramification in excellent local rings. We give an example showing that local monomialization (and weak local monomialization) can fail for extensions of algebraic local rings in algebraic…

In this paper, we show that Markov's principle is not derivable in dependent type theory with natural numbers and one universe. One way to prove this would be to remark that Markov's principle does not hold in a sheaf model of type theory…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author. The statement of the Main Theorem but is wrong in general, there have been provided counterexamples. The main theorem only holds conditionally, under the finiteness statement of theorem 2.8.

We show that the naive adaptation of Malle's conjecture to fair counting functions is not true in general.

We prove the Hardy-Littlewood theorem in two dimensions for functions whose Fourier coefficients obey general monotonicity conditions and, importantly, are not necessarily positive. The sharpness of the result is given by a counterexample,…
