Zaremba's 1971 conjecture predicts that every integer appears as the denominator of a finite continued fraction whose partial quotients are bounded by an absolute constant. We confirm this conjecture for a set of density one.
We discuss Birnbaum's result, its relevance to statistical reasoning, Mayo's objections and the result in [Electron. J. Statist. 7 (2013) 2645-2655] that the proof of this result doesn't establish what is commonly believed.…
The paper is partly a survey with historical background and references, partly provides the opportunity to put in print some unpublished early work, and partly has new results. A special case of relative categoricity is identified (almost…
In this article we define a minor relation, which is stronger than the classical one, but too strong to become a well-quasi-order on the class of finite graphs. Nevertheless, with this terminology we are able to introduce a conjecture,…
We defend a new theory of statistical evidence, which we call Robust Bayesianism (RB). We prove that, under widely accepted assumptions, RB entails the law of likelihood [Royall, 1997], the likelihood principle [Berger and Wolpert, 1988],…
We prove generalized versions of some conjectures of Joel Lewis on the number of alternating permutations avoiding certain patterns. Our main tool is the perhaps surprising observation that a classic bijection on pattern avoiding…
We take the first steps to develop Conley-Zehnder Theory, as conjectured by Arnold, in the world of probability. As far as we know, this paper provides the first probabilistic theorems about the density of fixed points of symplectic twist…
We survey most of the known results concerning the Eisenbud-Green-Harris Conjecture. Our presentation includes new proofs of several theorems, as well as a unified treatment of many results which are otherwise scattered in the literature.…
Nous rappelons l'historique de la demonstration de la conjecture des fibres de Seifert, ainsi que ses motivations et ses diverses generalisations. ----- We recall the history of the proof of the Seibert fiber space conjecture, as well as…
This is (mainly) a survey of recent results on the problem of the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms and Reeb flows. We focus on the Conley conjecture, proved for a broad class of closed symplectic…
Over one year ago, a very long preprint posted on arXiv [arXiv:1709.03771] and HAL announced a proof of Lehmer's Conjecture (and of other related results). Unfortunately, as was remarked by several specialists, this proof contains a (at…
The Schinzel Hypothesis is a conjecture about irreducible polynomials in one variable over the integers: under some standard condition, they should assume infinitely many prime values at integers. We consider a relative version: if the…
In 1904, Dickson [5] stated a very important conjecture. Now people call it Dickson's conjecture. In 1958, Schinzel and Sierpinski [14] generalized Dickson's conjecture to the higher order integral polynomial case. However, they did not…
We seek to create tools for a model-theoretic analysis of types in algebraically closed valued fields (ACVF). We give evidence to show that a notion of 'domination by stable part' plays a key role. In Part A, we develop a general theory of…
This note details how a recent structure theorem for normal $1$-currents proved by the first and third author allows to prove a conjecture of Cheeger concerning the structure of Lipschitz differentiability spaces. More precisely, we show…
In 1982 Macdonald published his now famous constant term conjectures for classical root systems. This paper begins with the almost trivial observation that Macdonald's constant term identities admit an extra set of free parameters, thereby…
We prove a conjecture of Johann Cigler on shifted Hankel determinants.
The said paper [2] entitled "Proof Of Two Dimensional Jacobian Conjecture" is with gaps.
We recall Vere-Jones's definition of the $\alpha$--permanent and describe the connection between the (1/2)--permanent and the hafnian. We establish expansion formulae for the $\alpha$--permanent in terms of partitions of the index set, and…
The conjecture of Leopoldt states that the $p$ - adic regulator of a number field does not vanish. It was proved for the abelian case in 1967 by Brumer, using Baker theory. We prove this conjecture for CM number fields $\K$. The proof uses…
