The Paszkiewicz conjecture about a product of positive contractions asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the product $S_n=T_n\dots T_1$…

Inspired by a recent result of Brakensiek et al. that symmetric tensor matroids and rigidity matroids are linked by matroid duality, we define abstract symmetric tensor matroids as a dual concept to abstract rigidity matroids and establish…

Given a class of objects, a pattern theorem is a powerful result describing their structure. We show that alternating knots exhibit a pattern theorem, and use this result to prove a long-standing conjecture that alternating knots grow rare.…

We provide a short proof of a conic version of the colorful Carath\'eodory theorem for oriented matroids. Holmsen's extension of the colorful Carath\'eodory theorem to oriented matroids (Advances in Mathematics, 2016) already encompasses…

We give a purely algebraic proof of the hypersurface case of Toric Residue Mirror Conjecture recently proposed by Batyrev and Materov.

We state and prove a new closure theorem closely related to the classical closure theorems of Poncelet and Steiner. Along the way, we establish a number of theorems concerning conic sections.

For a matrix $A$ which satisfies Crouzeix's conjecture, we construct several classes of matrices from $A$ for which the conjecture will also hold. We discover a new link between cyclicity and Crouzeix's conjecture, which shows that…

We show that Grothendieck's standard conjectures are implied by either of two other motivic conjectures: (a) by that of the existence of the motivic t-structure, and (b) by (a weak form of) Suslin's Lawson homology conjecture.

Describing minimal generating set of a toric ideal is a well-studied and difficult problem. In 1980 White conjectured that the toric ideal associated to a matroid is equal to the ideal generated by quadratic binomials corresponding to…

Thurston's ending lamination conjecture proposes that a finitely generated Kleinian group is uniquely determined (up to isometry) by the topology of its quotient and a list of invariants that describe the asymptotic geometry of its ends. We…

We prove the Hard Lefschetz theorem and Hodge-Riemann relations for certain rings which resemble the cohomology rings of projectivizations of globally generated vector bundles over toric varieties. This proves new cases of the standard…

In this paper we establish the existence of related fixed points theorems for two pairs of mappings with different contraction conditions in two fuzzy metric spaces.

We apply a classic result in Theoretical Computer Science to solve a sticky problem, and give a neat and slick quick proof of half of it

We provide a deletion formula for the inverse Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomial and the inverse $Z$-polynomial of a matroid. Our formulas provide analogues to the deletion formulas of Braden--Vysogorets for Kazhdan--Lusztig and $Z$-polynomials.…

A conjecture of Chunwei Song on a limiting case of the q,t-Schr\"{o}der theorem is proved combinatorially. The proof matches pairs of tableaux to Catalan words in a manner that preserves differences in the maj statistic.

We provide simple proofs of analogues for coverings numbers of lattices of several recently studied basic statements on the ranks of tensors. We highlight the differences and analogies between the proofs in both settings.

In a recent preprint, Gullerud and Walker [2] proved a theorem and made a conjecture about the correctness of efficiently generating B\'ezout trees for Pythagorean pairs. In this note, we give a simple proof of their theorem, confirm that…

We discuss the validity of the proof of the fixed numerator conjecture on Markov numbers, which is the main result of the paper mentioned in the title.

We prove a conjecture of Guo and Poznanovi\'{c} concerning chains in certain 01-fillings of moon polyominoes. A key ingredient of our proof is a correspondence between words $w$ and pairs $(\mathcal{W}(w), \mathcal{M}(w))$ of increasing…

We prove a new theorem of Tverberg type which confirms the conjecture of Blagojevic, Frick, and Ziegler about the existence of "balanced Tverberg partitions" (Conjecture 6.6 in, Tverberg plus constraints, Bull. London Math. Soc., 46 (2014)…
