For given positive integers $m$ and $n$ with $m<n$, the Prouhet-Tarry-Escott problem asks if there exist two disjoint multisets of integers of size $n$ having identical $k$th moments for $1\leq k\leq m$; in the ideal case one requires…
The paper contains a proof for the P != NP hypothesis with the help of the two "natural" postulates. The postulates restrict capacity of the Turing machines and state that each independent and necessary condition of the problem should be…
The Algebraic Dichotomy Conjecture states that the Constraint Satisfaction Problem over a fixed template is solvable in polynomial time if the algebra of polymorphisms associated to the template lies in a Taylor variety, and is NP-complete…
In this paper, we improve the results in the author's previous paper \cite{Usu22}, which deals with the quantitative problem on Littlewood's conjecture. We show that, for any $0<\gamma<1$, any $(\alpha,\beta)\in\mathbb{R}^2$ except on a set…
It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be true…
A celebrated unresolved conjecture of Peter Frankl states that every finite union-closed collection of sets ($B$), with non-empty universe, admits an abundant element. The best result in the literature states that if $|B|=n$, then there…
The Collatz Conjecture (also known as the 3x+1 Problem) proposes that the following algorithm will, after a certain number of iterations, always yield the number 1: given a natural number, multiply by three and add one if the number is odd,…
For sufficiently large $n$, we show that in every configuration of $n$ points chosen inside the unit square there exists a triangle of area less than $n^{-8/7-1/2000}$. This improves upon a result of Koml\'os, Pintz and Szemer\'edi from…
We derive the probability that all eigenvalues of a random matrix $\bf M$ lie within an arbitrary interval $[a,b]$, $\psi(a,b)\triangleq\Pr\{a\leq\lambda_{\min}({\bf M}), \lambda_{\max}({\bf M})\leq b\}$, when $\bf M$ is a real or complex…
In this paper, we consider sums of generalized polygonal numbers with repeats, generalizing Fermat's polygonal number theorem which was proven by Cauchy. In particular, we obtain the minimal number of generalized $m$-gonal numbers required…
An integer $n$ is said to be ternary if it is composed of three distinct odd primes. In this paper, we asymptotically count the number of ternary integers $n \leq x$ with the constituent primes satisfying various constraints. We apply our…
The document tries to put focus on sequences with certain properties and periods leading to the first value smaller than the starting value in the Collatz problem. With the idea that, if all starting numbers lead ultimately to a smaller…
The $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture due to De Mathan and Teuli\'e asserts that for any prime number $p$ and any real number $\alpha$, the equation $$\inf_{|m|\ge 1} |m|\cdot |m|_p\cdot |\langle m\alpha \rangle|\, =\, 0 $$ holds. Here, $|m|$…
It is conjectured that for every pair $(\ell,m)$ of odd integers greater than 2 with $m \equiv 1\; \pmod{\ell}$, there exists a cyclic two-factorization of $K_{\ell m}$ having exactly $(m-1)/2$ factors of type $\ell^m$ and all the others of…
The Onsager's conjecture has two parts: conservation of energy, if the exponent is larger than $1/3$ and the possibility of dissipative Euler solutions, if the exponent is less or equal than $1/3$. The paper proves half of the conjecture,…
We show that the number of partitions of n with alternating sum k such that the multiplicity of each part is bounded by 2m+1 equals the number of partitions of n with k odd parts such that the multiplicity of each even part is bounded by m.…
This paper proves Firoozbakht's conjecture using Rosser and Schoenfelds' inequality on the distribution of primes. This inequality is valid for all natural numbers ${n\geq 21}$. Firoozbakht's conjecture states that if $ {p_{n}}$ and…
For appropriate Gaussian processes, as a corollary of the majorizing measure theorem, Michel Talagrand (1987) proved that the event that the supremum is significantly larger than its expectation can be covered by a set of half-spaces whose…
We prove new upper bounds for the number of representations of an arbitrary rational number as a sum of three unit fractions. In particular, for fixed $m$ there are at most $\mathcal{O}_{\epsilon}(n^{3/5+\epsilon})$ solutions of…
Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…
