We prove that the defining equations of the Fermat curves of prime degree cannot be written as the determinant of symmetric matrices with entries in linear forms in three variables with rational coefficients. In the proof, we use a relation…

A recent conjecture of the author and Teng Fang states that there are only finitely many finite simple groups with no cubic graphical regular representation. In this paper, we make a crucial progress towards this conjecture by giving an…

We prove the Riemann Hypothesis via an analytically regulated surface integral over the critical strip of the Riemann zeta function. The key idea is that the convergence of this normalized integral is equivalent to the condition that all…

On the twisted Fermat cubic, an elliptic divisibility sequence arises as the sequence of denominators of the multiples of a single rational point. We prove that the number of prime terms in the sequence is uniformly bounded. When the…

We discuss the equation $a^p + 2^\a b^p + c^p =0$ in which $a$, $b$, and $c$ are non-zero relatively prime integers, $p$ is an odd prime number, and $\a$ is a positive integer. The technique used to prove Fermat's Last Theorem shows that…

The non-existence of global solutions for semirelativistic equations with non-gauge invariant power type nonlinearity is revisited by a relatively direct way with a pointwise estimate of fractional derivative of some test functions.

Let $K$ be a totally real field. By the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem over $K$ we mean the statement that there is a constant $B_K$ such that for prime exponents $p>B_K$ the only solutions to the Fermat equation $a^p + b^p + c^p = 0$…

We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden system in a half-space has no positive classical solution that is bounded on finite strips. Such a nonexistence result was previously available only for bounded solutions or under a…

In this paper we prove that the typical Lipschitz function has no directional derivative at any point of a Borel set $E$ if and only if $E$ is contained in a countable union of closed purely unrectifiable sets.

We show that the Hermitian analogue of a famous result of Pfister fails. To do so we provide a Hermitian symmetric polynomial $r$ of total degree 2d such that any non-zero multiple of it cannot be written as a Hermitian sum of squares with…

Let K be an arithmetic function field, that is, a field of finite type over the rational number field. In this note, as an application of the height theory due to Chen-Moriwaki, we would like to show that the solutions of Fermat's curve X^N…

For each positive integer $n$, function $f$, and point $x$, the 1998 conjecture by Ghinchev, Guerragio, and Rocca states that the existence of the $n$-th Peano derivative $f_{(n)}(x)$ is equivalent to the existence of all $n(n+1)/2$…

Let $F$ be a number field and $\mathcal{O}_F$ its ring of integers. We use Chevalley's ambiguous class number formula to give a criterion for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation $\lambda + \mu = 1$, $\lambda, \mu \in…

We prove existence of positive solutions to a nonlinear fractional boundary value problem. Then, under some mild assumptions on the nonlinear term, we obtain a smart generalization of Lyapunov's inequality. The new results are illustrated…

We consider the Diophantine equation $x^4 + y^4 - w^2 = n$ for $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, which is related to near misses for the quartic case of Fermat's Last Theorem. For certain $n$ we show that the set of solutions is infinite, or more…

We give a generalization of Fujisawa's theorem in [F]. Our proof of the generalized theorem is purely algebraic and it is simpler than his proof.

In this note, we show that the theory of tracial von Neumann algebras does not have a model companion. This will follow from the fact that the theory of any locally universal, McDuff II_1 factor does not have quantifier elimination. We also…

Let $\alpha,\beta,\gamma\in\mathbb{N}$. We prove that given an $r$-colouring of $\mathbb{F}_p$ with $p$ prime, there are more than $c_{r,\alpha,\beta,\gamma} p^2$ solutions to the equation $x^\alpha+y^\beta=z^\gamma$ with all of $x,y,z$ of…

We prove the Complete nontrivial cycle-intersection theorem for systems of permutations.

We show that a non-algebraic simple group of finite Morley rank with a definable representation over a field has no involutions, and otherwise resembles a bad group. In particular, the modern form of the Cherlin-Zilber alebaricity…
