Related papers: A survey of Gersten's conjecture
We prove some new cases of the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture for classical groups. This is based on a new construction of the Gersten-Witt complex for Witt groups of Azumaya algebras with involution on regular semilocal rings, with explicit…
We give a reformuation of the Tate conjecture for a surface over a finite field in terms of suitable affine open subsets. We then present three attempts to prove this reformulation, each of them falling short. Interestingly, the last two…
This is a report of the author's talk at Kinosaki Algebraic Geometry Symposium 2018. We discuss some recent progress on the geometry of thin exceptional sets in Manin's Conjecture.
The purpose of this article is to survey the developments on the Kakeya problem in recent years, concentrating on the period after the excellent 1999 survey of Wolff, and including some recent work by the authors. We will focus on the…
In this note, we establish the validity of a conjecture recently proposed in Mathematics Magazine and connect it to the existing interesting results
This is a Bourbaki's seminar text. We introduce the combinatorial Kashiwara-Vergne conjecture on the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff serie. After recalling previous results and consequences, we explain the Alekseev-Meinrenken's proof…
The main aim of the present paper is to disprove the Cohen--Lenstra--Martinet heuristics in two different ways and to offer possible corrections. We also recast the heuristics in terms of Arakelov class groups, giving an explanation for the…
In this paper, we clarify and build connections between various conjectures largely motivated by the works of Jean-Pierre Serre and John Tate. We closely study the Tate conjecture for algebraic cycles as well as their motivic…
The goal of the paper is twofold: it aims to give an extensive set of tools and bibliography towards Nowicki's conjecture both in an associative setting; it establishes a new result about Nowicki's conjecture for the free metabelian Poisson…
I provide a summary of the theoretical talks in Hard Probes 2012 together with some personal thoughts about the present and the future of the field.
The second author studied arithmetic properties of a class of sequences that generalize the sequence of derangements. The aim of the following paper is to disprove two conjectures stated in \cite{miska}. The first conjecture regards the set…
A key triviality result for support extension maps for motivic $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopies of cellular motivic spaces $S$ over a DVR spectrum $B$ is proven. Combining with earlier known results on Gersten complex and the K-theory motivic…
The existence of a "Plastikstufe" for a contact structure implies the Weinstein conjecture for all supporting contact forms.
This is an extended abstract for a survey talk given in Oberwolfach on 1st December 2022, slightly updated in June 2023. I survey some work around the notion of quasiminimality and some of the progress towards Zilber's conjecture from the…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture states that in every finite, nontrivial set family closed under taking unions there is an element contained in at least half of all the sets of the family. We investigate two new directions with respect to…
This is a report of the author's talk at RIMS workshop Algebraic Number Theory and Related Topics 2025 which was held at RIMS Kyoto University during December 15th-19th 2025. In this survey paper, we explain the homological sieve method,…
The results of several papers concerning the \v{C}ern\'y conjecture are deduced as consequences of a simple idea that I call the averaging trick. This idea is implicitly used in the literature, but no attempt was made to formalize the proof…
This is a survey on Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture.
This note explains an approach to producing examples of 'generalized Kuga-Satake theory' based on establishing special cases of Simpson's conjecture that rigid local systems are motivic. This strategy is then carried out, using work of…
