Contrary to classical semantics, the disjunction of two experimental propositions relating to pure states of a quantum system ("quantum propositions" for short) can be true even in the case where neither disjunct is true. This suggests that…

A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form is said to be $\textit{prime-universal}$ if it represents all primes. Recently, Doyle and Williams in [2] classified all prime-universal diagonal ternary quadratic forms, and all…

Quantum theory demands that, in contrast to classical physics, not all properties can be simultaneously well defined. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is a manifestation of this fact. Another important corollary arises that there can be…

We show that the physical N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on a four-sphere with an arbitrary gauge group receives no instanton contributions, by clarifying the relation between the hypermultiplet mass and the equivariant parameters of the…

In this note, we prove that if $\{a,b,c,d,e\}$ with $a<b<c<d<e$ is a Diophantine quintuple, then $d<10^{76}$.

We attempt to generalize the familiar covariantly conserved Bel-Robinson tensor B_{mnab} ~ R R of GR and its recent topologically massive third derivative order counterpart B ~ RDR, to quadratic curvature actions. Two very different models…

Reed Conjecture is open for more than 20 years now. Here we prove that Reed Conjecture is valid for (1) {P4UnionK1, Kite}-free graphs (2) {Chair, Kite}-free graphs (3) {K2UnionK2complement , H}-free graphs and (4) {2K2, M}-free graphs where…

We show that if a universal quadratic form exists over an infinite degree, totally real extension of the field of rationals $\mathbb{Q}$, then the set of totally positive integers in the extension does not have the Northcott property. In…

Recently, an interesting form of non-classical effect which can be considered as a form of contextuality within quantum mechanics, has been demonstrated for a four-level system by discriminating the different routes that are taken for…

We present an alternative frequencists' proof of the quantum probability rule which does not make use of the frequency operator, with expectation that this can circumvent the recent criticism against the previous proofs which use it. We…

We prove some theorems on decomposable continua. In particular, we prove; (i) the property of being a Wilder continuum is not a Whitney reversible property, (ii) inverse limits of D**-continua with surjective monotone upper semi-continuous…

We introduce and study flipped non-associative polynomial rings. In particular, we show that all Cayley-Dickson algebras naturally appear as quotients of a certain type of such rings; this extends the classical construction of the complex…

We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solution which is monotone in the normal direction. As a consequence, this problem does not admit any positive classical solution which is…

Let $1<k<7/6$, $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ be non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign such that $\lambda_1/\lambda_2$ is irrational and let $\omega$ be a real number. We prove that the inequality…

The main result in this paper is a non-existence Theorem of entire $Q_{n-1}$-translators in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. In addition, an example of non-entire complete $Q_{n-1}$-translator has been found and a Tangential Principle for…

We explore some of the properties of consecutive, equally-summed arithmetic progressions of odd numbers, particularly their offsets and sums, before using them to prove that no $3\times3$ magic squares of distinct square integers exist.

We show that an $n\times n$ circulant Hadamard matrix must satisfy a family of congruence equations that have solutions only when $n \leq 4$, proving Ryser's 1963 conjecture that no such matrices exist for $n>4$.

Let $C$ be a smooth genus one curve described by a quartic polynomial equation over the rational field $\mathbb Q$ with $P\in C(\mathbb Q)$. We give an explicit criterion for the divisibility-by-$2$ of a rational point on the elliptic curve…

This note provides a quite obvious observation that the condition (2.7), which is a part of the original definition of the so-called para-Kenmotsu manifolds [9], does not make sense, and thus this concept is void. So, it is proved that the…

The classic Gauss-Lucas Theorem for complex polynomials of degree $d\ge2$ has a natural reformulation over quaternions, obtained via rotation around the real axis. We prove that such a reformulation is true only for $d=2$. We present a new…
