By a result of Schur [J. Reine Angew. Math. 1911], the entrywise product $M \circ N$ of two positive semidefinite matrices $M,N$ is again positive. Vybiral [Adv. Math. 2020] improved on this by showing the uniform lower bound $M \circ…

The purpose of this note is to give a simple proof of the following theorem: Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$, $\op{char} k = 0$ and let $D \subset X$ be a proper closed subvariety of $X$. Then…

The generalized Mordell-Lang conjecture (GML) is the statement that the irreducible components of the Zariski closure of a subset of a group of finite rank inside a semi-abelian variety are translates of closed algebraic subgroups. M.…

Grothendieck's standard conjecture of Lefschetz type has two main forms: the weak form $C$ and the strong form $B$. The weak form is known for varieties over finite fields as a consequence of the proof of the Weil conjectures. This suggests…

In this letter a generic counterexample to the strong cosmic censor conjecture is exhibited. More precisely---taking into account that the conjecture lacks any precise formulation yet---first we make sense of what one would mean by a…

The Steinberg tensor product theorem is a fundamental result in the modular representation theory of reductive algebraic groups. It describes any finite-dimensional simple module of highest weight $\lambda$ over such a group as the tensor…

In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…

In this paper, we introduce and study the class of {\it enriched strictly pseudocontractive mappings} in Hilbert spaces and extend the corresponding convergence theorem (Theorem 12) in [Browder, F. E., Petryshyn, W. V., {\it Construction of…

We study the action of a differential operator on Schubert polynomials. Using this action, we first give a short new proof of an identity of I. Macdonald (1991). We then prove a determinant conjecture of R. Stanley (2017). This conjecture…

In this paper we prove Shapiro's 1958 Conjecture on exponential polynomials, assuming Schanuel's Conjecture.

The generalized Lax conjecture asserts that each hyperbolicity cone is a linear slice of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. We prove the conjecture for a multivariate generalization of the matching polynomial. This is further…

Let G be an additive abelian group whose finite subgroups are all cyclic. Let A_1,...,A_n (n>1) be finite subsets of G with cardinality k>0, and let b_1,...,b_n be pairwise distinct elements of G with odd order. We show that for every…

Polynomial Systems, or at least their algorithms, have the reputation of being doubly-exponential in the number of variables [Mayr and Mayer, 1982], [Davenport and Heintz, 1988]. Nevertheless, the Bezout bound tells us that that number of…

The Schinzel hypothesis is a famous conjectural statement about primes in value sets of polynomials, which generalizes the Dirichlet theorem about primes in an arithmetic progression. We consider the situation that the ring of integers is…

We provide an upper bound on the uniform exponent of approximation to a triple (xi, xi^2, xi^3) by rational numbers with the same denominator, valid for any transcendental real number xi. This upper bound refines a previous result of…

We establish a version "over the ring" of the celebrated Hilbert Irreducibility Theorem. Given finitely many polynomials in $k+n$ variables, with coefficients in $\mathbb Z$, of positive degree in the last $n$ variables, we show that if…

In this paper we prove, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the Andr?e-Oort conjecture on the Zariski closure of sets of special points in a Shimura variety. In the case of sets of special points satisfying an additional…

We continue our study on the global solution to the two-dimensional Prandtl's system for unsteady boundary layers in the class considered by Oleinik provided that the pressure is favorable. First, by using a different method from [13], we…

We show that every inclusion of von Neumann algebras with a faithful normal conditional expectation has the weak relative Dixmier property. This answers a question of Popa \cite{Po99}. The proof uses an improvement of Ellis' lemma for…

We describe a very general abstract form of sieve based on a large sieve inequality which generalizes both the classical sieve inequality of Montgomery (and its higher-dimensional variants), and our recent sieve for Frobenius over function…
