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…

In this paper, we present a minimal counterexample to a conjecture of Perles that answers a question of Haase and Ziegler. The example is a simple 4-polytope that has an induced 3-connected 3-regular subgraph, whose graph complement is…

The paper provides a version of the rational Hodge conjecture for $\3\dg$ categories. The noncommutative Hodge conjecture is equivalent to the version proposed in \cite{perry2020integral} for admissible subcategories. We obtain examples of…

In an earlier work [K. Castillo et al., J. Math. Anal. Appl., 514 (2022) 126358], we give positive answer to the first, and apparently more easy, part of a conjecture of M. Ismail concerning the characterization of the continuous $q$-Jacobi…

The material conditional has long been charged with paradox. Defined truth-functionally, it renders true any conditional whose antecedent is false or consequent true -- hence, seemingly absurd statements such as `If unicorns exist, then…

We prove that any quasirandom graph with $n$ vertices and $rn$ edges can be decomposed into $n$ copies of any fixed tree with $r$ edges. The case of decomposing a complete graph establishes a conjecture of Ringel from 1963.

This paper has been withdrawn, as all conjectures (and one claim) have been proven incorrect. Some of what remains may eventually reappear in a different context.

The Casas-Alvero conjecture is about interpolation polynomials. There are some partial proofs of it, but there is not any proof in the general case.In this paper we propose three.

The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that any finite subset of a lattice $\mathbb{Z^d}$ which tiles that lattice by translations, in fact tiles periodically. We announce here a disproof of this conjecture for sufficiently large $d$, which…

Problem 4.19 in Ziegler's "Lectures on Polytopes" asserts that every simple $3$-dimensional polytope has the property that its dual can be constructed as the convex hull of a subset of the vertices of the original simple polytope. In this…

We show Kantor's conjecture (1974) holds in rank 4. This proves both the sticky matroid conjecture of Poljak and Turzik (1982) and the whole Kantor's conjecture, due to an argument of Bachem, Kern, and Bonin, and an equivalence argument of…

In this paper we prove a conjecture that $D(4)$-quintuple does not exist using both classical and new methods. Also, we give a new version of the Rickert's theorem that can be applied on some $D(4)$-quadruples.

In this paper, we investigate the base-$p$ expansions of putative counterexamples to the $p$-adic Littlewood conjecture of de Mathan and Teuli\'e. We show that if a counterexample exists, then so does a counterexample whose base-$p$…
