Series expansions for the mathematical constant $\beta(4)$ are rare in the history. With the help of the operator method and a hypergeometric transformation, we prove a surprising conjectural series of Sun for $\beta(4)$. Furthermore, we…

Let the map $f:[-1,1]\to[-1,1]$ have a.c.i.m. $\rho$ (absolutely continuous $f$-invariant measure with respect to Lebesgue). Let $\delta\rho$ be the change of $\rho$ corresponding to a perturbation $X=\delta f\circ f^{-1}$ of $f$. Formally…

The Buratti-Horak-Rosa Conjecture concerns the possible multisets of edge-labels of a Hamiltonian path in the complete graph with vertex labels $0, 1, \ldots, {v-1}$ under a particular induced edge-labeling. The conjecture has been shown to…

In 1989, Rota conjectured that, given $n$ bases $B_1,\dots,B_n$ of the vector space $\mathbb{F}^n$ over some field $\mathbb{F}$, one can always decompose the multi-set $B_1\cup \dots \cup B_n$ into transversal bases. This conjecture remains…

A conjecture posed by S. Hayajneh and F. Kittaneh claims that given $A,B$ positive matrices, $0\le t\le 1$, and any unitarily invariant norm it holds $|||A^tB^{1-t}+B^tA^{1-t}|||\le|||A^tB^{1-t}+A^{1-t}B^t|||$. Recently, R. Bhatia proved…

We prove certain conjecture holds true for a finite category which has M\"obius inversion. The conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.

We prove the Pisot Conjecture for beta-substitutions: If beta is a Pisot number, the tiling dynamical system associated with the beta-substitution has pure discrete spectrum. As corollaries: (1) arithmetical coding of the hyperbolic…

A copula of continuous random variables $X$ and $Y$ is called an \emph{implicit dependence copula} if there exist functions $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that $\alpha(X) = \beta(Y)$ almost surely, which is equivalent to $C$ being factorizable…

Let $R$ be a standard graded algebra over a field. We investigate how the singularities of $R$ affect its $h$-vector, which is the coefficients of the numerator of its Hilbert series. The most concrete consequences of our work asserts that…

Let X be a Noetherian scheme of finite dimension and denote by rho the (additive inverse of the) morphism in SH(X) from S to Gm corresponding to the unit -1. Here SH(X) denotes the motivic stable homotopy category. We show that the category…

We conjecture that the set of all Hilbert functions of (artinian) level algebras enjoys a very natural form of regularity, which we call the {\em Interval Conjecture} (IC): If, for some positive integer $\alpha $, $(1,h_1,...,h_i,...,h_e)$…

A H"older regularity index at given points for density states of (alpha,1,beta)-superprocesses with alpha>1+beta is determined. It is shown that this index is strictly greater than the optimal index of local H"older continuity for those…

For $\alpha\in [1,2)$ we consider operators of the form $$L f(x)=\int_{R^d} [f(x+h)-f(x)-1_{(|h|\leq 1)} \nabla f(x)\cdot h] \frac{A(x,h)}{|h|^{d+\alpha}}$$ and for $\alpha\in (0,1)$ we consider the same operator but where the $\nabla f$…

In 1984, Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits conjectured the following: given a bipartite graph $H$, there exist constants $\beta, C > 0$ such that any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $pn^2\geq C \mathrm{ex}(n, H)$ edges contains at least $\beta…

The change of variable theorem is proved under the sole hypothesis of differentiability of the transformation. Specifically, it is shown under this hypothesis that the transformed integral equals the given one over every measurable subset…

An integer array y = y[1..n] is said to be feasible if and only if y[1] = n and, for every i \in 2..n, i \le i+y[i] \le n+1. A string is said to be indeterminate if and only if at least one of its elements is a subset of cardinality greater…

In [Decompositions and statistics for \beta(1,0)-trees and nonseparable permutations, Advances Appl. Math. 42 (2009) 313--328] we introduced an involution, h, on \beta(1,0)-trees. We neglected, however, to prove that h indeed is an…

The notion of walk entropy $S^V(G,\beta)$ for a graph $G$ at the inverse temperature $\beta$ was put forward recently by Estrada et al. (2014) \cite{6}. It was further proved by Benzi \cite{1} that a graph is walk-regular if and only if its…

Let $\gamma$ be a non-degenerate Ustilovsky geodesic in $Ham (M, \omega)$ generated by $H$. We give a simple proof of a generalization of the conjecture stated in \cite{virtmorse}, relating the Morse index of $ \gamma$, as a critical point…

In this paper, we consider functionals of the form $H_\alpha(u)=F(u)+\alpha G(u)$ with $\alpha\in[0,+\infty)$, where $u$ varies in a set $U\neq\emptyset$ (without further structure). We first revisit a result stating that, excluding at most…
