We adopt a physically motivated empirical approach to the characterisation of the distributions of twin and triplet primes within the set of primes, rather than in the set of all natural numbers. Remarkably, the occurrences of twins or…
We introduce an infinite set of integer mappings that generalize the well-known Collatz-Ulam mapping and we conjecture that an infinite subset of these mappings feature the remarkable property of the Collatz conjecture, namely that they…
Hadwiger's transversal theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a line transversal to a family of pairwise disjoint convex sets in the plane. These conditions were subsequently generalized to hyperplane…
The bounded orbit conjecture says that every homeomorphism on the plane with each of its orbits being bounded must have a fixed point. Brouwer's translation theorem asserts that the conjecture is true for orientation preserving…
We establish a simple generalization for the famous theorem of Morley about trisectors in triangle with a purely synthetic proof using only angle chasing and similar triangles. Furthermore, based on the converse construction, another simple…
It is shown that the original Andrews--Curtis conjecture on balanced presentations of the trivial group is equivalent to its "cyclic" version in which, in place of arbitrary conjugations, one can use only cyclic permutations. This, in…
We study the Carnot theorem and the configuration of points and lines in connection with it. It is proven that certain significant points in the configuration lie on the same lines and same conics. The proof of an equivalent statement…
An elementary renewal theorem and a Blackwell theorem provided by Jasiulis-Go{\l}dyn et al. (2020) in a setting of Kendall convolutions are proved under weaker hypothesis and extended to the Gamma class. Convergence rates of the limits…
In this work the generalized Collatz problem $qn+1$ ($q$ odd) is studied. As a natural generalization of the original $3n+1$ problem, it consists of a discrete dynamical system of an arithmetical kind. Using standard methods of number…
In this paper we discuss an obstruction to the integral Hodge conjecture, which arises from certain behavior of vanishing cycles. This allows us to construct new counter-examples to the integral Hodge conjecture. One typical such…
We prove a generalization of the well known Routh's triangle theorem. As a consequence, we get a unification of the theorems of Ceva and Menelaus. A connection to Feynman's triangle is also given.
Previous work has shown that certain leading orders of arbitrary Vassiliev invariants are generically in the algebra of the coefficients of the Alexander-Conway polynomial \cite{KSA}. Here we illustrate this for a large class of examples,…
We give a new construction of cyclic homology of an associative algebra A that does not involve Connes' differential. Our approach is based on an extended version of the complex \Omega A, of noncommutative differential forms on A, and is…
Taking as model the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of phi-contractions on a complete and bounded metric space, we introduce the set-theoretic concept of family of functions having attractor. We prove that, given such a…
We show that there is an absolute constant $c>0$ such that every large connected $n$-vertex Cayley graph with degree $d\geq n^{1-c}$ has a Hamilton cycle. This makes progress towards the Lov\'asz conjecture and improves upon the previous…
The cyclicity and Koblitz conjectures ask about the distribution of primes of cyclic and prime-order reduction, respectively, for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. In 1976, Serre gave a conditional proof of the cyclicity conjecture, but…
By adding the total time derivatives of all the constraints to the Lagrangian step by step, we achieve the further work of the Dirac conjecture left by Dirac. Hitherto, the Dirac conjecture is proved completely. It is worth noticing that…
Nov\'{a}k conjectured in 1974 that for any cyclic Steiner triple systems of order $v$ with $v\equiv 1\pmod{6}$, it is always possible to choose one block from each block orbit so that the chosen blocks are pairwise disjoint. We consider the…
We study the validity of congruence inclusions of the form $ \alpha ( \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta \circ \dotsc \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta ) \subseteq \alpha \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \alpha \beta \circ \dots$ in…
The combinatorial structure of a d-dimensional simple convex polytope can be reconstructed from its abstract graph [Blind & Mani 1987, Kalai 1988]. However, no polynomial/efficient algorithm is known for this task, although a polynomially…
