The Fan-Raspaud Conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph has three 1-factors with empty intersection. A weaker one than this conjecture is that every bridgeless cubic graph has two 1-factors and one join with empty intersection.…

In this paper, we prove the geometric Bombieri-Lang conjecture for projective varieties which have finite morphisms to abelian varieties of trivial traces over function fields of characteristic 0. The proof is based on the idea of…

We analyze the algorithm in [Holub, 2009], which decides whether a given word is a fixed point of a nontrivial morphism. We show that it can be implemented to have complexity in O(mn), where n is the length of the word and m the size of the…

An ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is said to be of linear type when its Rees algebra and symmetric algebra exhibit isomorphism. In this paper, we investigate the conjecture put forth by Jayanthan, Kumar, and Sarkar (2021) that if $G$…

The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…

In this short note, we will show the following weak evidence of S. Lang conjecture over function fields. Let f : X ---> Y be a projective and surjective morphism of algebraic varieties over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic…

We show that for any integer n and any field k of characteristic different from 2 there are at most finitely many isomorphism classes of quadratic morphisms from the projective line over k to itself with a finite postcritical orbit of size…

A question of F. Kwakkel and V. Markovic on existence of C^1-diffeomorphisms of closed surfaces that permute a dense collection of domains with bounded geometry is answered in the negative. In fact, it is proved that for closed surfaces of…

A conjecture of Miyanishi says that an endomorphism of an algebraic variety, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, is an automorphism if the endomorphism is injective outside a closed subset of codimension at…

Let $A$ be a uniform algebra, $\theta:A\to M_n(\mathbb{C})$ be a continuous homomorphism and $\alpha:A\to A$ be an antilinear contraction such that \[ \|\theta(f)+\theta(\alpha(f))^*\|\le 2\|f\| \quad(f\in A). \] We show that $\|\theta\|\le…

The Brauldi-Hoffman conjecture, proved by Rowlinson in 1988, characterized the graph with maximal spectral radius among all simple graphs with prescribed number of edges. In 2008, Bhattacharya, Friedland, and Peled proposed an analog, which…

A well-known conjecture of Orlov asks whether the existence of a full exceptional collection implies rationality of the underlying variety. We prove this conjecture for arithmetic toric varieties over general fields. We also investigate a…

We show that the uniform Littlewood Conjecture (ULC) recently introduced by Bandi, Fregoli and Kleinbock is false. More precisely the counterexamples form a residual set, the method further suggests positive Hausdorff dimension. For a…

Motivated by a recent result of Ciesielski and Jasinski we study periodic point free Cantor systems that are conjugate to systems with vanishing derivative everywhere, and more generally locally radially shrinking maps. Our study uncovers a…
