We survey Vojta's higher-dimensional generalizations of the $abc$ conjecture and Szpiro's conjecture as well as recent developments that apply them to various problems in arithmetic dynamics. In particular, the "$abcd$ conjecture" implies a…
In this (partly expository) paper we give a short overview about the close relationship between the sequence of Catalan numbers and Hankel determinants from the point of view of orthogonal polynomials and show that an analogous situation…
We solve two conjectures of Ceken-Palmieri-Wang-Zhang concerning discriminants and give some applications.
We derive some, seemingly new, curious additive relations in the Pascal triangle. They arise in summing up the numbers in the triangle along some vertical line up to some place.
This is an appendix to our paper "An update of the Hirsch Conjecture" (arXiv:0907.1186), containing proofs of some of the results and comments that were omitted in it.
The following work shows new connections between the constants $\pi$ and $e$ with Pascal's triangle and the Lucas triangle, established via Fibonacci polynomials and similar means. Furthermore, relations between the two famous constants and…
In this paper, we study the Carlitz's degenerate Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and give some formulae and identities related to those numbers and polynomials.
Green and Tao proved that the primes contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. We show that, essentially the same proof leads to the following result: The primes in an short interval contains many arithmetic progressions of any…
I settle a conjecture of Andrews related to the Alladi-Schur polynomials. In addition, I give further relations and implications to two families of polynomials related to the Alladi-Schur polynomials.
We settled a conjecture of Feigin, Wang and Yoshinaga, appeared in the preprint "Integral expressions for derivations of multiarrangements" (arXiv: 2309.01287v2).
We present positivity conjectures for the Schur expansion of Jack symmetric functions in two bases given by binomial coefficients. Partial results suggest that there are rich combinatorics to be found in these bases, including Eulerian…
We present a number of results relating partial Cauchy-Littlewood sums, integrals over the compact classical groups, and increasing subsequences of permutations. These include: integral formulae for the distribution of the longest…
We provide a number of new conjectures and questions concerning the syzygies of $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$. The conjectures are based on computing the graded Betti tables and related data for large number of different embeddings of…
This is a introductory survey of some recent developments of "Galois ideas" in Arithmetic, Complex Analysis, Transcendental Number Theory and Quantum Field Theory, and of some of their interrelations.
Bessenrodt and Ono's work on additive and multiplicative properties of the partition function and DeSalvo and Pak's paper on the log-concavity of the partition function have generated many beautiful theorems and conjectures. In January…
We improve several recent results by Hong, Lee, Lee and Park (2012) on gaps and Bzd\c{e}ga (2014) on jumps amongst the coefficients of cyclotomic polynomials. Besides direct improvements, we also introduce several new techniques that have…
We obtain new recurrence relations, an explicit formula, and convolution identities for higher order geometric polynomials. These relations generalize known results for geometric polynomials, and lead to congruences for higher order…
We prove a conjecture of Sturmfels, Timme and Zwiernik on the ML-degrees of linear covariance models in algebraic statistics. As in our previous works on linear concentration models, the proof ultimately relies on the computation of certain…
We introduce a new, elementary method for studying random differences in arithmetic progressions and convergence phenomena along random sequences of integers. We apply our method to obtain significant improvements on previously known…
We establish an expansion theory for $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb Z/q\mathbb Z)$. Incorporating this into a framework recently developed by Shkredov, we confirm Zaremba's conjecture.
