Suppose that h in F[x,y,z], char F=2, defines a nodal cubic. In earlier papers we made a precise conjecture as to the Hilbert-Kunz functions attached to the powers of h. Assuming this conjecture we showed that a class of characteristic 2…

In 1999, Katona and Kierstead conjectured that if a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\cal H$ on $n$ vertices has minimum co-degree $\lfloor \frac{n-k+3}{2}\rfloor$, i.e., each set of $k-1$ vertices is contained in at least $\lfloor…

We give a proof the monodromy conjecture relating the poles of motivic zeta functions with roots of b-functions for isolated quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces, and more generally for semi-quasihomogeneous hypersurfaces. We also give a strange…

In this article, we investigate the extremal properties of logarithmic coefficients for the class $\mathcal{S}_{ch}^*$ of starlike functions associated with the hyperbolic cosine function. We establish the sharp upper bounds for the initial…

In this paper, we establish several results related to Crouzeix's conjecture. We show that the conjecture holds for contractions with eigenvalues that are sufficiently well-separated. This separation is measured by the so-called separation…

WITHDRAWN: The proof contains an uncorrectable gap in the proof of theorem 7 on page 11. A proof of the Krzyz conjecture is presented, based on the application of the variational method, as well as on the use of two classical results and…

Let function $f$ be analytic in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ and be normalized so that $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. In this paper we give sharp bounds of the modulus of its second, third and fourth coefficient, if $f$ satisfies \[…

The classical Hurwitz theorem says that if n first "harmonics" (2n + 1 Fourier coefficients) of a continuous function f(x) on the unit circle are zero, then f(x) changes sign at least 2n + 1 times. We show that similar facts and its…

Suppose that finitely many disjoint open arcs have been selected on the unit circle, each of length less than $\pi$. Let $L_0$ be a longest among them. One can treat the unit disk as a hyperbolic plane in the Poincare disk model. From this…

\begin{abstract} This paper deals with an extremal problem for bounded harmonic functions in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n.$ We solve the Khavinson conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^3,$ an intriguing open question since 1992 posed by D. Khavinson,…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a convex $K$ is anemconvex function iff it satisfies $$ f((x+y)/2) \le (f(x)+f(y))/2 + 1. $$ A thorough study of approximately convex functions is made. The principal results are a sharp universal upper…

Our main point of focus is the set of closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces. For any fixed integer $k$, we are interested in the set of all closed geodesics with at least $k$ (but possibly more) self-intersections. Among these, we…

Recently, the Wang et al. \cite{wwrq} proposed a coefficient conjecture for the family ${\mathcal S}_H^0(K)$ of $K$-quasiconformal harmonic mappings $f = h + \overline{g}$ that are sense-preserving and univalent, where…

In this 1997 Ph.D. dissertation we prove a piecewise form of the discrete part of Wilf and Zeilberger's 1992 conjecture that a hypergeometric term is proper if and only if it is holonomic. We show that a holonomic hypergeometric term on…

Let $K$ be a compact set with connected complement on the half-plane Re$(s)>0$, and let $f$ be a continuous function on $K$ which is analytic in its interior. We prove that for any parameter $0<\alpha<1, \alpha \neq \frac 1 2$ then $f(s)$…

We study locally univalent functions $f$ analytic in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane such that $|{f"(z)/f'(z)}|(1-|z|^2)\leq 1+C(1-|z|)$ holds for all $z\in\mathbb{D}$, for some $0<C<\infty$. If $C\leq 1$, then $f$ is…

In this note, we investigate the supremum and the infimum of the functional $|a_{n+1}|-|a_{n}|$ for functions, convex and analytic on the unit disk, of the form $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\dots.$ We also consider the related problem to maximize…

In this paper, we first consider the graph of $(F_1,F_{2},\cdots,F_{n})$ on $\overline{\mathbb{D}}^{n},$ where $F_{j}(z)=\bar{z}^{m_{j}}_{j}+R_{j}(z),j=1,2,\cdots,n,$ which has non-isolated CR-singularities if $m_{j}>1$ for some…

Function $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty} a_n z^n$, normalized, analytic and univalent in the unit disk $\mathbb D=\{z:|z|<1\}$, belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}$. if, and only if, \[ \left| \left(\frac{z}{f(z)}\right)^2 -1\right|<1 \quad\quad…

Assume $z_0$ lies in the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ and $g$ is an analytic self-map of $\mathbb{D}$. We will determine the region of values of $g''(z_0)$ in terms of $z_0$, $g(z_0)$ and the hyperbolic derivative of $g$ at $z_0$, and give…
