Six conjectures on pairs of consecutive primes are listed in this paper, together with examples for each case.

We present the status of the Farrell-Jones Conjecture for algebraic K-theory for a group G and arbitrary coefficient rings R. We add new groups for which the conjecture is known to be true and study inheritance properties. We discuss new…

In this article we prove several important results on graded rings, especially monoid-rings, that are motivated and inspired by Kaplansky's zero-divisor, unit and idempotents conjectures. Among the main results, we first generalize…

Katzarkov has proposed a generalization of Kontsevich's mirror symmetry conjecture, covering some varieties of general type. Seidel \cite{Se} has proved a version of this conjecture in the simplest case of the genus two curve. Basing on the…

We investigate properties of the group inverse in rings with unit related to products and differences of idempotents, and thus we extend some results from \cite{DENG} to more general settings. We show that most part of \cite{DENG} is easily…

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…

We consider a family of finitely presented groups, called Universal Left Invertible Element (or ULIE) groups, that are universal for existence of one--sided invertible elements in a group ring K[G], where K is a field or a division ring. We…

We provide a broad class of counterexamples to a conjecture of L. de Branges concerning the superfluity of the continuity property in the axiomatic description of de Branges spaces.

A theorem of Kaplansky asserts that a semigroup of matrices with entries from a field whose members all have singleton spectra is triangularizable. Indeed, Kaplansky's Theorem unifies well-known theorems of Kolchin and Levitzki on…

The local converse theorem for Rankin-Selberg gamma factors of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ proved by Piatetski-Shapiro over $\mathbb{C}$ no longer holds after reduction modulo $\ell \neq p$. To remedy this, we construct new $\mathrm{GL}_n…

We construct a universal phantom subcategory on the blow-up of the complex projective plane in 11 general points. This phantom subcategory is the orthogonal complement of a non-full exceptional collection of line bundles of maximal length.…

This paper studies "pro-excision" for the K-theory of one-dimensional (usually semi-local) rings and its various applications. In particular, we prove Geller's conjecture for equal characteristic rings over a perfect field of finite…

Consider the canonical morphism from the Chow ring of a smooth variety $X$ to the associated graded ring of the topological filtration on the Grothendieck ring of $X$. In general, this morphism is not injective. However, Nikita Karpenko…

In this paper we continue the study of group representations which are counterexamples to the Ize conjecture. As in the previous papers by Lauterbach [14] and Lauterbach & Matthews [15] we find new infinite series of finite groups leading…

Zassenhaus Conjecture for torsion units states that every augmentation one torsion unit of the integral group ring of a finite group G is conjugate to an element of G in the units of rational group algebra QG. This conjecture has been…

We prove the "divisible case" of the Milnor-Bloch-Kato conjecture (which is the first step of Voevodsky's proof of this conjecture for arbitrary prime l) in a rather clear and elementary way. Assuming this conjecture, we construct a 6-term…

An example is constructed of a local ring and a module of finite type and finite projective dimension over that ring such that the module is not rigid. This shows that the rigidity conjecture is false.

Using algebraic geometry methods, the third author proved that the group ring of a surjunctive group with coefficients in a field is always stably finite. In other words, every group satisfying Gottschalk's conjecture also satisfies…

Building on previous work by Caicedo and the second author, we develop a method that decides the existence of units of finite order in blocks of $\mathbb{Z}_p G$ of defect 1. This allows us to prove that if $p$ is a prime and $G$ is a…

The group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of the line provides straightforward counter-examples to the so-called von Neumann conjecture. The examples are so simple that many additional properties can be established.
