We introduce Kurosh elements in division rings based on the idea of a conjecture of Kurosh. Using this, we generalize a result of Faith in [3] and of Herstein in [6].
In this paper, a formula for the calculation of the number of right cosets contained in a double coset with respect to a unimodular group over a Dedekind domain is developed, and applications of this formula in the theory of congruence…
A conjecture of Gr\"obner-Shirshov basis of any Coxeter group has proposed by L.A. Bokut and L.-S. Shiao \cite{bs01}. In this paper, we give an example to show that the conjecture is not true in general. We list all possible nontrivial…
Considering Schur positivity of differences of plethysms of homogeneous symmetric functions, we introduce a new relation on integer partitions. This relation is conjectured to be a partial order, with its restriction to one part partitions…
We establish the Hodge conjecture for the top dimensional cohomology group with integer coefficients of any $q$-complete complex manifold $X$ with $q<\dim X$. This holds in particular for the complement $X=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n\setminus A$…
We introduce Coxeter-sortable elements of a Coxeter group W. For finite W, we give bijective proofs that Coxeter-sortable elements are equinumerous with clusters and with noncrossing partitions. We characterize Coxeter-sortable elements in…
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)…
A group is surjunctive if every injective cellular automaton on it is also surjective. Gottschalk famously conjectured that all groups are surjunctive. This remains a central open problem in symbolic dynamics and descriptive set theory.…
It is shown that the coset lattice of a finite group has shellable order complex if and only if the group is complemented. Furthermore, the coset lattice is shown to have a Cohen-Macaulay order complex in exactly the same conditions. The…
Let $S=(a_1)\cdots(a_k)$ be a minimal zero-sum sequence over a finite cyclic group $G$. The index conjecture states that if $k=4$ and $\gcd(|G|,6)=1$, then $S$ has index $1$. In this paper we prove that if $S$ is singular then the index of…
Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers $\geq 5$ such that $p$ divides $N-1$. Let $I$ be Mazur's Eisenstein ideal of level $N$ and $H_+$ be the plus part of $H_1(X_0(N), \mathbf{Z}_p)$ for the complex conjugation. We give a conjectural explicit…
In 2004, Zhi-Wei Sun posed the following conjecture: If a_1G_1,...,a_kG_k (k>1) are finitely many pairwise disjoint left cosets in a group G with all the indices [G:G_i] finite, then for some 1\le i<j\le k, the greatest common divisor of…
Let $S=(a_1)\cdots(a_k)$ be a minimal zero-sum sequence over a finite cyclic group $G$. The index conjecture states that if $k=4$ and $\gcd(|G|,6)=1$, then $S$ has index 1. In this note we study the index conjecture and connect it to a…
The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that on a regular local ring, no nontrivial reductive torsor becomes trivial over the fraction field. While this conjecture has been proven in the equicharacteristic case, it remains open in the…
For a finite set of non-zero natural numbers that contains at least one element different from 1 and the least common multiple of any of its subsets, there exists a subset of at least half of its members which has a common divisor larger…
For positive integers $s$ and $L \geq 3$, Berkovich and Uncu (Ann. Comb. $23$ ($2019$) $263$--$284$) conjectured an inequality between the sizes of two closely related sets of partitions whose parts lie in the interval $\{s, \ldots, L+s\}$.…
We present a general conjecture on the divisibility of a certain expression in terms of Kostka numbers and their close variants. This conjecture is closely related to a variant of the period-index problem of noncommutative algebra, with…
We show that every finite simple group is generated invariably by a Sylow subgroup and a cyclic group. It follows that that the order complex of the coset poset of an arbitrary finite group has nontrivial reduced rational homology.
We establish a categorical version of Vogan duality for quasi-split real groups. This proves a conjecture of Soergel in the quasi-split case.
In the geometry of polynomials, Schoenberg's conjecture, now a theorem, is a quadratic inequality between the zeros and critical points of a polynomial whose zeros have their centroid at the origin. We call its generalizations to other…
