In their study of the Yamabe problem in the presence of isometry group, Hebey and Vaugon announced a conjecture. This conjecture generalizes Aubin's conjecture, which has already been proven and is sufficient to solve the Yamabe problem. In…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over ${\bf Q}$ and $K$ an imaginary quadratic field satisfying the Heegner hypothesis. A classical result of Kolyvagin states that, under suitable assumptions, if the basic Heegner point $y_K \in E(K)$…

The Hodge conjecture is shown to be equivalent to a question about the homology of very ample divisors with ordinary double point singularities. The infinitesimal version of the result is also discussed.

We establish an equivalent condition to the validity of the Collatz conjecture, using elementary methods. We derive some conclusions and show several examples of our results. We also offer a variety of exercises, problems and conjectures.

Stark-Heegner points are conjectural substitutes for Heegner points when the imaginary quadratic field of the theory of complex multiplication is replaced by a real quadratic field $K$. They are constructed analytically as local points on…

In this article, we study the p-ordinary Iwasawa theory of the (conjectural) Rubin-Stark elements defined over abelian extensions of a CM field F and develop a rank-g Euler/Kolyvagin system machinery (where 2g is the degree of F), refining…

We use the theory of Kolyvagin systems to prove (most of) a refined class number formula conjectured by Darmon. We show that for every odd prime $p$, each side of Darmon's conjectured formula (indexed by positive integers $n$) is "almost" a…

In this article we take a probabilistic look at H\"older's inequality, considering the ratio of terms in the classical H\"older inequality for random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove a central limit theorem for this ratio, which then…

We put a new conjecture on primes from the point of view of its binary expansions and make a step towards justification.

In this article, we study the Iwasawa theory for Hilbert modular forms over the anticyclotomic extension of a CM field. We prove a one sided divisibility result toward the Iwasawa main conjecture. The proof relies on the first and second…

In this article we prove a version of Kolyvagin's conjecture for modular forms at non-ordinary primes. In particular, we generalize the work of Wang on a converse to a higher weight Gross-Zagier-Kolyvagin theorem in order to prove the…

This paper is an extension program of the notion of circle of partition developed in our first paper \cite{CoP}. As an application we prove the Erd\H{o}s-Tur\'{a}n additive base conjecture.

We prove the Strengthened Hanna Neumann Conjecture, in its common graph theoretic formulation. Our original approach to this conjecture used cohomology of sheaves on graphs, although here we give a short combinatorial proof that we found in…

Let $f$ be a primitive form with respect to $SL_2(Z)$. Then we propose a conjecture on the congruence between the Klingen-Eisenstein lift of the Duke-Imamoglu-Ikeda lift of $f$ and a certain lift of a vector valued Hecke eigenform with…

Main theorem of [Buyukboduk, arXiv:0706.0377v1] suggests that it should be possible to lift the Kolyvagin systems of Stark units constructed in [Buyukboduk, arXiv:math/0703426v1] to a Kolyvagin system over the cyclotomic Iwasawa algebra.…

We provide a simple and efficient numerical criterion to verify the Iwasawa main conjecture and the indivisibility of derived Kato's Euler systems for modular forms of weight two at any good prime under mild assumptions. In the ordinary…

We introduce the intersection cohomology module of a matroid and prove that it satisfies Poincar\'e duality, the hard Lefschetz theorem, and the Hodge-Riemann relations. As applications, we obtain proofs of Dowling and Wilson's Top-Heavy…

Let $f$ be a newform of even weight at least $4$, level $N$ and trivial character. Let $p\nmid N$ be an odd prime number that is ordinary for $f$ and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying a generalized Heegner hypothesis…

We prove the twin prime conjecture and the generalized conjectures of Kronecker and Polignac. Key to the proofs is a new theoretical sieve that combines two concepts that go back to Eratosthenes: the 'sieve' filtering a finite set of…

Nicolas' criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is an inequality based on primorials and the Euler totient function. The aim of this paper is to reformulate Nicolas' criterion and prove the equivalent statement. I will show that the…
