For positive integers $1 \leq k \leq n$ let $M_n$ be the algebra of all $n \times n$ complex matrices and $M_n^{\le k}$ its subset consisting of all matrices of rank at most $k$. We first show that whenever $k>\frac{n}{2}$, any continuous…

Buryak and Shadrin conjectured a tautological relation on moduli spaces of curves $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ which has the form $B^m_{g, \textbf{d}}=0$ for certain tautological classes $B^m_{g, \textbf{d}}$ where $m \geq 2, n \geq 1$…

We establish a new class of examples of the multivariate Bateman-Horn conjecture by using tools from dynamics. These cases include the determinant polynomial on the space of $n\times n$ matrices, the Pfaffian on the space of skew-symmetric…

In this paper we present an unexpected link between the Factorial Conjecture and Furter's Rigidity Conjecture. The Factorial Conjecture in dimension $m$ asserts that if a polynomial $f$ in $m$ variables $X_i$ over $\C$ is such that ${\cal…

The Sendov conjecture asserts that if $p(z) = \prod_{j=1}^{N}(z-z_j)$ is a polynomial with zeros $|z_j| \leq 1$, then each disk $|z-z_j| \leq 1$ contains a zero of $p'$. Our purpose is the following: Given a zero $z_j$ of order $n \geq 2$,…

Let $I\subset S$ be a graded ideal of a standard graded polynomial ring $S$ with coefficients in a field $K$, and let $\text{v}(I)$ be the $\text{v}$-number of $I$. In previous work, we showed that for any graded ideal $I\subset S$…

We establish the volume conjecture for (m,2)-cables of the figure 8 knot, when m is odd. For (m,2)-cables of general knots where m is even, we show that the limit in the volume conjecture depends on the parity of the color (of the Kashaev…

About two decades ago, Tsfasman and Boguslavsky conjectured a formula for the maximum number of common zeros that $r$ linearly independent homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ in $m+1$ variables with coefficients in a finite field with $q$…

Determining the number of embeddings of Laman graph frameworks is an open problem which corresponds to understanding the solutions of the resulting systems of equations. In this paper we investigate the bounds which can be obtained from the…

Bollob\'as and Nikiforov conjectured that for any graph $G \neq K_n$ with $m$ edges \[ \lambda_1^2+\lambda_2^2\le \bigg( 1-\frac{1}{\omega(G)}\bigg)2m\] where $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ denote the two largest eigenvalues of the adjacency…

Vershik and Kerov conjectured in 1985 that dimensions of irreducible representations of finite symmetric groups, after appropriate normalization, converge to a constant with respect to the Plancherel family of measures on the space of Young…

Sendov's conjecture, which was first introduced in the last 50s, asserts that if all the zeros of a polynomial $p$ lie in the closed unit disk then for each zero there must be a critical point of $p$ within unit distance. This paper…

We prove that the product version of the 1-2-3 Conjecture, raised by Skowronek-Kazi{\'o}w in 2012, is true. Namely, for every connected graph with order at least 3, we prove that we can assign labels 1,2,3 to the edges in such a way that no…

In this paper, we recast a special case of Mahler'c conjecture by the maximum value of box splines. This is the case of polytopes with at most $2n+2$ facets. An asymptotic formula for univariate box splines is given. Based on the formula,…

We prove that the Jacobian conjecture is false if and only if there exists a solution to a certain system of polynomial equations. We analyse the solution set of this system. In particular we prove that it is zero dimensional.

Let $f$ bea noncommutativepolynomial of degree $m\ge 1$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic $0$. If $n\ge m-1$ and $\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\alpha_3$ are nonzero elements from $F$ such that $\alpha_1+\alpha_2+\alpha_3=0$,…

We prove the discrete analogue of Kakeya conjecture over $\mathbb{R}^n$. This result suggests that a (hypothetically) low dimensional Kakeya set cannot be constructed directly from discrete configurations. We also prove a generalization…

Kontsevich conjectured that the number f(G,q) of zeros over the finite field with q elements of a certain polynomial connected with the spanning trees of a graph G is polynomial function of q. We have been unable to settle Kontsevich's…

We first give a characterization for Mathieu subspaces of univariate polynomial algebras over fields in terms of their radicals. We then deduce that for some classes of classical univariate orthogonal polynomials the Image Conjecture is…

We apply a nested variant of multigrade efficient congruencing to estimate mean values related to that of Vinogradov. We show that when $\varphi_j\in \mathbb Z[t]$ $(1\le j\le k)$ is a system of polynomials with non-vanishing Wronskian, and…
