We verify the Morrison--Kawamata conjecture for a certain class of rational threefolds, namely blowups of P^3 in the base locus of a net of quadrics with no reducible members. This seems to be the first verified case of the conjecture for…

Let $A$ be the polynomial ring over $k$ (a field of characteristic zero) in $n+1$ variables. The commuting derivations conjecture states that $n$ commuting locally nilpotent derivations on $A$, linearly independent over $A$, must satisfy…

A simplification of Ap\'ery's proof of the irrationality of \zeta(3) is presented. The construction of approximations is motivated from the viewpoint of 2-dimensional recurrence relations which simplifies many of the details of the proof.…

We provide various counter-examples to the long-standing so-called "Omnibus Conjecture" in Rational Homotopy Theory. That is, we show that a space with finite dimensional even-degree rational cohomology and finite dimensional spherical…

We establish a conjecture of Mumford characterizing rationally connected complex projective manifolds in several cases.

There are several classical characterisations of the valuative dimension of a commutative ring. Constructive versions of this dimension have been given and proven to be equivalent to the classical notion within classical mathematics, and…

In this short note we confirm the relation between the generalized $abc$-conjecture and the $p$-rationality of number fields. Namely, we prove that given K$/\mathbb{Q}$ a real quadratic extension or an imaginary $S_3$-extension, if the…

We prove Atiyah's conjecture for two special types of configurations of N points in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. For one of these types, it is shown that the stronger conjecture of Atiyah and Sutcliffe is valid.

We present constructive versions of Krull's dimension theory for commutative rings and distributive lattices. The foundations of these constructive versions are due to Joyal, Espan\~ol and the authors. We show that this gives a constructive…

Nous rappelons des versions constructives de la th\'eorie de la dimension de Krull dans les anneaux commutatifs et dans les treillis distributifs, dont les bases ont \'et\'e pos\'ees par Joyal, Espan\~ol et les deux auteurs. Nous montrons…

Motivated by the variations of Sarnak's conjecture due to El Abdalaoui, Kulaga-Przymus, Lemanczyk, De La Rue and by the observation that the Mobius function is a good weight (with limit zero) for the polynomial pointwise ergodic theorem in…

Using algebraic transformations and equivalent reformulations we derive a number of new results from some earlier ones (by the author) in more accepted terms closely related to well-known conjectures of Bondy and Jung including a number of…

This paper describes a method used to construct infinitely many probable counterexamples of the abc conjecture over the rational integers.

We build on our previous paper \cite{constructive} by using the general method introduced there in conjunction with invariant theory. This yields quantifier elimination results for the classical quaternions, octonions, as well as other…

In 2001 Sir M. F. Atiyah formulated a conjecture C1 and later with P. Sutcliffe two stronger conjectures C2 and C3. These conjectures, inspired by physics (spin-statistics theorem of quantum mechanics), are geometrically defined for any…

In this note we sketch a proof of a fundamental conjecture, the codimension-three conjecture, for microdifferential holonomic systems with regular singularities. It states that any regular holonomic E-module extends beyond a…

We first give a new proof and also a new formulation for the Abhyankar-Gurjar inversion formula for formal maps of affine spaces. We then use the reformulated Abhyankar-Gurjar formula to give a more straightforward proof for the equivalence…

We discuss some variants of cone theorem for movable curves in any codimensions.

We present a simple dyadic construction that yields a new counterexample to Zygmund's conjecture. Our result recovers Soria's classical result in dimension three, through a different construction, and gives new ones in all other dimensions…

The axion Weak Gravity Conjecture implies that when parametrically increasing the axion decay constants, instanton corrections become increasingly important. We provide strong evidence for the validity of this conjecture by studying the…
