This paper makes a fundamental assertion about the Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture. Suppose that for a prime $p$ there exists $x,y,z \in \mathbb{N}$ with $x \leq y \leq z$ so that $$ \frac{4}{p} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z}. $$ The…
Using a relative trace formula approach, we prove the twisted global Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for $\operatorname{U}(V) \subseteq \operatorname{GL}(V)$, as well as its refinement, under some unramifiedness assumptions and local conditions…
We show that Pashin's conjecture on the vanishing of rational higher K-groups of smooth, projective varieties over finite fields can be thought of as a combination of three weaker conjectures.
We prove a probabilistic Fourier extension theorem that says Fourier extension holds when averaged over certain smooth Alpert multipliers. The proofs use smooth Alpert wavelets with the classical techniques of stationary phase and…
This paper outlines a solution to the Straus Erd\H{o}s Conjecture. Namely for each prime $p$ there exists positive integers $x \leq y \leq z$ so that $$ \frac{4}{p} = \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z} $$
We extend the $L^4$-square function estimates for the parabola and the half-cone to quadratic manifolds in higher dimensions and their conical extensions. To this end, we require transversality for the tangent spaces of the quadratic…
We show that the extension of Presburger arithmetic by a quadratic generalised polynomial of a specific form is undecidable.
In this paper, we confirm the following conjecture of Guo and Schlosser: for any odd integer $n>1$ and $M=(n+1)/2$ or $n-1$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{M}[4k-1]_{q^2}[4k-1]^2\frac{(q^{-2};q^4)_k^4}{(q^4;q^4)_k^4}q^{4k}\equiv…
We derive the $N=2$ and $4$ super Yang-Mills theories from the viewpoint of the $M_4\times Z_2\times Z_2$ gauge theory. Scalars and pseudoscalars appearing in the theories are regarded as gauge fields along the directions on $Z_2\times Z_2$…
We prove that a conjecture of Fomin, Fulton, Li, and Poon, associated to ordered pairs of partitions, holds for many infinite families of such pairs. We also show that the bounded height case can be reduced to checking that the conjecture…
This paper proves four conjectured generating series, due to Chapoton, which concern invariants of posets and polytopes associated with a specific sequence of arbors. Two of these conjectures provide closed-form formulas for the generating…
We prove the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for the symplectic-metaplectic case under some assumptions. This is the last case of the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures. We also prove two of Prasad's conjectures on the local theta…
In this paper, we prove the cohomological Lichtenbaum conjecture of abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields up to a finite set of bad primes.
We outline a proof of the categorical geometric Langlands conjecture for GL(2), as formulated in reference [AG], modulo a number of more tractable statements that we call Quasi-Theorems.
We formulate a version of the Breuil--Mezard conjecture for quaternion algebras, and show that it follows from the Breuil--Mezard conjecture for GL_2. In the course of the proof we establish a mod p analogue of the Jacquet--Langlands…
We show that the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth proper varieties over finitely generated fields of positive characteristic follows from the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth projective surfaces over…
We relate the "Fourier" orbital integrals of corresponding spherical functions on the p-adic groups SO(5) and PGL(2). The correspondence is defined by a "lifting" of representations of these groups. This is a local "fundamental lemma"…
A scalar field theory with 4-derivative kinetic terms and 4-derivative cubic and quartic couplings is presented as a proxy for quantum quadratic gravity (QQG). The scalar theory is renormalizable and asymptotically free and the remaining…
Let $K$ be a quartic number field containing $\sqrt{2}$ and let $\mathcal{O}\subseteq K$ be an order such that $\sqrt{2}\in \mathcal{O}$. We prove that the Pythagoras number of $\mathcal{O}$ is at most 5. This confirms a conjecture of…
For \ell \neq p odd primes, we examine PSL_2(\ell)-covers of the projective line branched at one point over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, where PSL_2(\ell) has order divisible by p. We show that such covers can be…
