The Kaplansky unit conjecture for group rings is false in characteristic zero.

The unit conjecture, commonly attributed to Kaplansky, predicts that if $K$ is a field and $G$ is a torsion-free group then the only units of the group ring $K[G]$ are the trivial units, that is, the non-zero scalar multiples of group…

Kaplansky's zero divisor conjecture (unit conjecture, respectively) states that for a torsion-free group $G$ and a field $\mathbb{F}$, the group ring $\mathbb{F}[G]$ has no zero divisors (has no unit with support of size greater than $1$).…

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…

We prove Union-Closed sets conjecture.

We prove the validity of the strong version of the union of uniform closed balls conjecture, formulated in 2011 as [4, Conjecture 2.5], in the plane.

Given a positive integer d, the Kaplansky-Lvov conjecture states that the set of values of a multilinear noncommutative polynomial f on the matrix algebra M_d(C) is a vector subspace. In this article the technique of using one-wiggle…

Several results about the union-closed sets conjecture are presented.

In this paper we prove the probabilistic continuous complexity conjecture. In continuous complexity theory, this states that the complexity of solving a continuous problem with probability approaching 1 converges (in this limit) to the…

In this short note we explain why the log-Brunn-Minkowski conjecture is correct for complex convex bodies. We do this by relating the conjecture to the notion of complex interpolation, and appealing to a general theorem by…

In this paper we give an elementary proof of the Zariski-Lipman conjecture for log canonical spaces.

Let $G$ be a group and let $k$ be a field. Kaplansky's direct finiteness conjecture states that every one-sided unit of the group ring $k[G]$ must be a two-sided unit. In this paper, we establish a geometric direct finiteness theorem for…

Let $K/k$ be an abelian extension of number fields with a distinguished place of $k$ that splits totally in $K$. In that situation, the abelian rank one Stark conjecture predicts the existence of a unit in $K$, called the Stark unit,…

We prove that all injective maps on positive complex matrices which preserve order and shrink spectrum are implemented by unitary or antiunitary conjugations. We show by counterexamples that all assumptions are indispensable. The result…

We prove the Banach strong Novikov conjecture for groups having polynomially bounded higher-order combinatorial functions. This includes all automatic groups.

We prove a long-standing conjecture of Chudnovsky for very general and generic points in $\mathbb{P}_k^N$, where $k$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and for any finite set of points lying on a quadric, without any…

We study algebras on which the Berenstein-Zelevinsky conjecture is true. In particular, we prove that this conjecture is true "up to localization".

In this paper we present a conjecture on the construction of generalised elliptic units above number fields with exactly one complex place. These elliptic units obtained as values of multiple elliptic Gamma functions. These form a…

In this paper we extend methods of Rubin to prove the Gras conjecture for abelian extensions of a given imaginary quadratic field k and prime numbers p which divide the number of roots of unity in k.

We provide a simple proof for the union-closed sets conjecture, a long-standing open problem in set theory with immediate applications to graph theory, number theory, and order-theory.
