In this short note we present a family of counterexamples to the King's conjecture.

This paper describes a method used to construct infinitely many probable counterexamples of the abc conjecture over the rational integers.

In this paper, over a field of positive characteristic we exhibit an infinite family of counter examples to the Zariski Cancellation Problem in higher dimensions ($\geqslant 3$) which are pairwise non-isomorphic and also non-isomorphic to…

In this note we provide some counterexamples for the conjectures of finite simple groups, one of the conjectures said "all finite simple groups $G$ can be determined using their orders $|G|$ and the number of elements of order $p$, where…

Turing's famous 'machine' framework provides an intuitively clear conception of 'computing with real numbers'. A recursive counterexample to a theorem shows that the theorem does not hold when restricted to computable objects. These…

We study the integral Hodge conjecture in complex codimension $2$ and $3$ for approximations to the classifying space of groups of type A. In degree two, we prove a conjecture of Ben Antieau, extending his two counterexamples to a general…

In 2017, Geordie Williamson proved the existence of counterexamples to James's conjecture on the decomposition matrices of symmetric groups and their Hecke algebras. The smallest counterexample detectable by Williamson's method occurs in…

We give a counterexample to the PIA (precise inversion of adjunction) conjecture for minimal log discrepancies. We also give a counterexample to the LSC conjecture for families.

Let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of a finite group $G$. A. R. Miller conjectured that the proportion of elements $g\in G$ such that $\chi(g)$ is zero or a root of unity is at least 1/2. We construct a character of a perfect group of…

Brandt et al. (2013) have recently disproved a conjecture by Schwartz (1990) by non-constructively showing the existence of a counterexample with about 10^136 alternatives. We provide a concrete counterexample for Schwartz's conjecture with…

In this paper we produce infinite families of counterexamples to Jantzen's question posed in 1980 on the existence of Weyl $p$-filtrations for Weyl modules for an algebraic group and Donkin's Tilting Module Conjecture formulated in 1990.…

We prove that every many-sorted $\omega$-categorical theory is completely interpretable in a one-sorted $\omega$-categorical theory. As an application, we give a short proof of the existence of non $G$--compact $\omega$-categorical…

Extending the discovery by Giles Gardam of a concrete counterexample to Kaplansky's unit conjecture in characteristic 2, a family of counterexamples for every prime characteristic is presented.

A collection of sets $\Fscr$ has the $(p,q)$-property if out of every $p$ elements of $\Fscr$ there are $q$ that have a point in common. A transversal of a collection of sets $\Fscr$ is a set $A$ that intersects every member of $\Fscr$.…

In 1979, Herzog put forward the following conjecture: if two simple groups have the same number of involutions, then they are of the same order. We give a counterexample to this conjecture.

We present an example of a symmetric tensor of size $800\times 800\times 800$ which can be written a sum of $903$ simple tensors with complex entries but not as a sum of $903$ symmetric simple tensors.

We study the reverse mathematics of countable analogues of several maximality principles that are equivalent to the axiom of choice in set theory. Among these are the principle asserting that every family of sets has a $\subseteq$-maximal…

In this paper, we give a simple counter example to the famous Hodge conjecture.

Batson's conjecture is a non-orientable version of Milnor's conjecture, which states that the 4-ball genus of a torus knot $T(p,q)$ is equal to $\frac{(p-1)(q-1)}{2}$. Batson's conjecture states that the nonorientable 4-ball genus is equal…

We describe a new source of counterexamples to the so-called integral Hodge and integral Tate conjectures. As in the other known counterexamples to the integral Tate conjecture over finite fields, ours are approximations of the classifying…
