A graph $G$ contains another graph $H$ as an immersion if $H$ can be obtained from a subgraph of $G$ by splitting off edges and removing isolated vertices. There is an obvious necessary degree condition for the immersion containment: if $G$…

We prove a generalization of Frieman's $3k-3$ theorem for the sumset $$ \Sigma^{l}(A_1,\ldots,A_k)=\{a_{j_{1}}+\cdots+a_{j_{l}}:\,1\leq j_{1}<\cdots<j_{l}\leq k,\ a_{j_{s}}\in A_{j_{s}}\text{ for all }s\}. $$

The gonality conjecture, proved by Ein--Lazarsfeld, asserts that the gonality of a nonsingular projective curve of genus $g$ can be detected from its syzygies in the embedding given by a line bundle of sufficiently large degree. An…

An old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, proved by Schinzel, predicted a bound for the number of terms of a polynomial $g(x) \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ when its square $g(x)^2$ has a given number of terms. Further conjectures and results arose,…

In this article we trace the genesis of a theorem that gives for the first time examples of Galois group $G_S$ of the maximal $p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, unramified outside a finite set of primes not containing $p$, that are of…

Using the theory of Newton Polygons, we formulate a simple criterion for the Galois group of a polynomial to be ``large.'' For a fixed $\alpha \in \Q - \Z_{<0}$, Filaseta and Lam have shown that the $n$th degree Generalized Laguerre…

Let $G\cong \mathbb Z/m_1\mathbb Z\times\ldots\times \mathbb Z/m_r\mathbb Z$ be a finite abelian group with $m_1\mid\ldots\mid m_r=\exp(G)$. The $n$-term subsums version of Kneser's Theorem, obtained either via the DeVos-Goddyn-Mohar…

By the theorem of Mantel $[5]$ it is known that a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4} \rfloor+1$ edges must contain a triangle. A theorem of Erd\H{o}s gives a strengthening: there are not only one, but at least…

The class-breadth conjecture of Leedham-Green, Neumann and Wiegold states that for each $p$-group, $cl(G)\leq b(G) + 1$, where $cl(G)$, $b(G)$ denote the nilpotency class and the breadth of $G$. While several counter-examples to this…

The aim of this paper is to describe the definitions and main properties of three generalizations of the group concept, namely: groupoid, generalized group and almost groupoid. Some constructions of these algebraic structures and…

We give explicit constructions of sets S with the property that for each integer k, there are at most g solutions to k=s_1+s_2, s_i\in S; such sets are called Sidon sets if g=2 and generalized Sidon sets if g\ge 3. We extend to generalized…

An arbitrary-depth reduction theorem for the `convolution' multiple L-values of Euler-Zagier type is proven by an analytic method. To this end, generalized polylogarithms associated to Dirichlet characters are defined. The proof uses the…

We use Green's canonical syzygy conjecture for generic curves to prove that the Green-Lazarsfeld gonality conjecture holds for generic curves of genus g, and gonality d, if $g/3<d<[g/2]+2$.

We generalize Gaeta's Theorem to the family of determinantal schemes. In other words, we show that the schemes defined by minors of a fixed size of a matrix with polynomial entries belong to the same G-biliaison class of a complete…

Given integers g_i > 1 (i=1,...,n) we prove that there exist infinitely may knots K_i in S^3 so that g(E(K_i)) = g_i and the Heegaard genus of the exterior of the connected sum of K_1,...,K_n is the sum the Heegaard genera of K_1,...,K_n,…

Given a recollement of three proper dg algebras over a noetherian commutative ring, e.g. three algebras which are finitely generated over the base ring, which extends one step downwards, it is shown that there is a short exact sequence of…

For a numerical semigroup $S \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $m,e,c,g$ denote its multiplicity, embedding dimension, conductor and genus, respectively. Wilf's conjecture (1978) states that $e(c-g) \ge c$. As of 2023, Wilf's conjecture has been…

For a genus $g$ Heegaard splitting of the $3$-sphere, the Goeritz group is defined to be the group of isotopy classes of diffeomorphisms of the $3$-sphere that preserve the splitting setwise. In this paper, we prove the following conjecture…

We consider maps on genus-$g$ surfaces with $n$ (labeled) faces of prescribed even degrees. It is known since work of Norbury that, if one disallows vertices of degree one, the enumeration of such maps is related to the counting of lattice…

We show that there exist knots K in S^3 with g(E(K))=2 and g(E(K#K#K))=6. Together with Theorem~1.5 of [1], this proves existence of counterexamples to Morimoto's Conjecture (Conjecture 1.5 of [2]). This is a special case of…
