We examine an elementary problem on prime divisibility of binomial coefficients. Our problem is motivated by several related questions on alternating groups.

We give a new local proof of Breuil-M\'ezard conjecture for two dimensional representations of the absolute Galois group of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, when $p\ge 5$ and the representation has scalar endomorphisms.

The existence of invariant transversals for a normal subgroup $H$ in a group $G$ is investigated. This yields counterexamples to a conjecture in case $H$ is abelian and $G$ is finite.

We give a detailed proof of Kolchin's results on differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. We closely follow former works due to Pillay and…

The author introduces a conjecture about Makar-Limanov invariants of affine unique factorization domains over a field of characteristic zero. Then the author finds that the conjecture does not always hold when $\mathbbm{k}$ is not…

The Markoff group of transformations is a group $\Gamma$ of affine integral morphisms, which is known to act transitively on the set of all positive integer solutions to the equation $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=xyz$. The fundamental strong…

After reconsidering the Dasbach-Hougardy counterexample to the Kauffman Conjecture on alternating knots, we reformulate the conjecture and consider Dasbach-Hougardy counterexample and similar counterexamples in the light of the reformulated…

Assuming regularity of the fixed subalgebra, any action of a finite group $G$ on a holomorphic VOA $V$ determines a gauge anomaly $\alpha \in \mathrm{H}^3(G; \boldsymbol{\mu})$, where $\boldsymbol{\mu} \subset \mathbb{C}^\times$ is the…

Variational Principle (VP) forms diffeomorphisms with prescribed Jacobian determinant (JD) and curl. Examples demonstrate that, (i) JD alone can not uniquely determine a diffeomorphism without curl; and (ii) the solutions by VP seem to…

We provide a way to modify and to extend a previously established inequality by P. Erd\H{o}s, R. Graham and others and to answer a conjecture posed in the nineties by R. Graham, which bears on the lack of divisibility of the central…

We show that Brauer's height zero conjecture holds for blocks of finite quasi-simple groups. This result is used in Navarro-Sp\"ath's reduction of this conjecture for general groups to the inductive Alperin-McKay condition for simple…

We verify the inductive McKay condition for simple groups of Lie type C, namely finite projective symplectic groups. This contributes to the program of a complete proof of the McKay conjecture for all finite groups via the reduction theorem…

For a reduced alternating diagram of a knot with a prime determinant $p,$ the Kauffman-Harary conjecture states that every non-trivial Fox $p$-coloring of the knot assigns different colors to its arcs. In this paper, we prove a…

For any prime number p and any positive real number {\alpha}, we construct a finitely generated group {\Gamma} with p-gradient equal to {\alpha}. This construction is used to show that there exist uncountably many pairwise non-commensurable…

The well known Andrews-Curtis Conjecture [2] is still open. In this paper, we establish its finite version by describing precisely the connected components of the Andrews-Curtis graphs of finite groups. This finite version has independent…

We address the conjectures left by the recent article by Ferreira et al. titled ``Commuting maps and identities with inverses on alternative division rings.'' We also present an example showing the necessity of the conditions of the results…

We revisit Kolchin's results on definability of differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. In certain classes of differential topological…

Let $p_{1}$, ..., $p_{k}$ be the first $k$ odd primes in succession. Let $n$ be an even integer such that $n > p_{k}$. We conjecture that if none of $n - p_{1}$, ..., $n - p_{k}$ are prime, then at least one of them has a prime factor which…

We state conjectures on the relationships between automorphic representations and Galois representations, and give evidence for them.

We prove that if an alternating knot has unknotting number one, then there exists an unknotting crossing in any alternating diagram. This is done by showing that the obstruction to unknotting number one developed by Greene in his work on…
