Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the class of analytic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ of the form $f(z)= z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ and $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions $f\in\mathcal{A}$ which are univalent ({\it i.e.},…
The purpose of this paper is to make an introduction to univalent function theory for readers of any level, assuming only foundational knowledge in real and complex analysis. In particular, we state and proof (with details) important…
I prove Ravenel's 1983 "Global Conjecture" on $\Ext^1$ over the classifying Hopf algebroid of formal $A$-modules, equivalently, the first flat cohomology group $H^1_{fl}$ of the moduli stack $\mathcal{M}_{fmA}$ of formal $A$-modules. I then…
Extending Sellers' result, Das et al. recently proved some congruence results for generalized overcubic partitions using theta functions and posed some related conjectures. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial proof of a result in…
In a sequence of four papers, we prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large $n$: (i) [1-factorization conjecture] Suppose that $n$ is even and $D\geq 2\lceil n/4\rceil -1$. Then every $D$-regular graph…
In 1972, J. S. Lew established a reasonable conjecture regarding an axiomatic characterization for the one-dimensional Riemann-Liouville integral. This conjecture was proved by Cartwright and McMullen in 1978. After that, little further…
Inequalities among symmetric polynomial functions are fundamental questions in mathematics and have various applications in science and engineering. This paper investigates a beautiful and inspiring conjecture, proposed by Cuttler, Greene…
The compactness phenomenon is one of the featured aspects of structuralism in mathematics. In simple and broad words, a compactness property holds in a structure if a related property is satisfied by sufficiently many substructures of that…
One of the major open problems in complexity theory is proving super-logarithmic lower bounds on the depth of circuits (i.e., $\mathbf{P}\not\subseteq\mathbf{NC}^1$). Karchmer, Raz, and Wigderson (Computational Complexity 5(3/4), 1995)…
It is well known that Ramanujan conjectured congruences modulo powers of 5, 7 and and 11 for the partition function. These were subsequently proved by Watson (1938) and Atkin (1967). In 2009 Choi, Kang, and Lovejoy proved congruences modulo…
We provide a combinatorial interpretation of the symmetric function $\left.\Theta_{e_k}\Theta_{e_l}\nabla e_{n-k-l}\right|_{t=0}$ in terms of segmented Smirnov words. The motivation for this work is the study of a diagonal coinvariant ring…
Gleason's theorem [A. Gleason, J. Math. Mech., \textbf{6}, 885 (1957)] is an important result in the foundations of quantum mechanics, where it justifies the Born rule as a mathematical consequence of the quantum formalism. Formally, it…
In 2013, Joerg Arndt recorded that the Fibonacci numbers count integer compositions where the first part is greater than the second, the third part is greater than the fourth, etc. We provide a new combinatorial proof that verifies his…
In this paper, the generalized Bloch Conjecture on zero cycles for the quotient of certain complete intersections with trivial canonical bundle is proved to hold. As an application of Bloch-Srinivas method on the decomposition of the…
In [5] I.P. Goulden, D.M. Jackson, and R. Vakil formulated a conjecture relating certain Hurwitz numbers (enumerating ramified coverings of the sphere) to the intersection theory on a conjectural Picard variety. We are going to use their…
Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture [Progr. Math. 120 (1994)] claims a strong submultiplicative upper bound on the rank of a three-tensor obtained as an iterated Kronecker product of a constant-size base tensor. The conjecture, if true,…
We prove a conjecture of Stembridge concerning stability of Kronecker coefficients that vastly generalizes Murnaghan's theorem. The main idea is to identify the sequences of Kronecker coefficients in question with Hilbert functions of…
The ring of symmetric functions $\Lambda$, with natural basis given by the Schur functions, arise in many different areas of mathematics. For example, as the cohomology ring of the grassmanian, and as the representation ring of the…
In 1995 Stanley conjectured that the chromatic symmetric functions of the graphs $P_{d,2}$, which we call triangular ladders, were $e$-positive. In this paper we confirm this conjecture, which is also an unsolved case of the celebrated…
A number of mathematical methods have been shown to model the zeroes of $L$-functions with remarkable success, including the Ratios Conjecture and Random Matrix Theory. In order to understand the structure of convolutions of families of…
