We investigate a beautiful conjecture of T. Wilde on character values and element orders of finite groups. We reduce it to a statement on nearly simple groups that can be checked ``prime by prime". For these groups, we show that a strong…

We prove the following uniformity principle: if one of the Galois representations in the family attached to a genus two Siegel cusp form of weight $k>3$, "semistable" and with multiplicity one, is reducible (for an odd prime $p$),then all…

In this paper we discuss a general framework in which we present a new conjecture, due to Wenhua Zhao, the Image Conjecture. This conjecture implies the Generalized Vanishing Conjecture and hence the Jacobian Conjecture. Crucial ingredient…

We prove a logical implication between two old conjectures stated by Bapat and Sunder about the permanent of positive semidefinite matrices. Although Drury has recently disproved both conjectures, this logical implication yields a…

The abc conjecture, one of the most famous open problems in number theory, claims that three positive integers satisfying a+b=c cannot simultaneously have significant repetition among their prime factors; in particular, the product of the…

We verify the three-dimensional Glassey conjecture for exterior domain (M, g), where the metric g is asymptotically Euclidean, provided that certain local energy assumption is satisfied. The radial Glassey conjecture exterior to a ball is…

Let $f: \mathbb{C}[x,y] \to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ be a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra endomorphism having an invertible Jacobian. We show that for such $f$, if, in addition, the group of invertible elements of $\mathbb{C}[f(x),f(y),x][1/v] \subset…

We prove Malle's conjecture for nonic Heisenberg extensions over $\mathbb{Q}$. Our main algebraic result shows that the number of nonic Heisenberg extensions over $\mathbb{Q}$ with discriminant bounded by $X$ is given by a character sum. We…

In their study of characters of minimal affinizations of representations of orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras, Chari and Greenstein conjectured that certain Jacobi-Trudi determinants satisfy an alternating sum formula. In this note, we…

Notions of sesquiconstructible complexes and odd iterated stellar subdivisions are introduced, and some of their basic properties are verified. The Charney-Davis conjecture is then proven for odd iterated stellar subdivisions of…

We revisit the classical two-dimensional McKay correspondence in two respects: The first one, which is the main point of this work, is that we take into account of the multiplicative structure given by the orbifold product; second, instead…

Transformation formulas for four-parameter refinements of the q-trinomial coefficients are proven. The iterative nature of these transformations allows for the easy derivation of several infinite series of q-trinomial identities, and can be…

This paper gives two different proofs to a structural theorem of decreasing minimization (lexicographic optimization) on integrally convex sets. The theorem states that the set of decreasingly minimal elements of an integrally convex set…

In this short note, we state a stable and a $\tau$-reduced version of the second Brauer-Thrall Conjecture. The former is a slight strengthening of a brick version of the second Brauer-Thrall Conjecture raised by Mousavand and…

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…

In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Wei Zhang on comparison of certain local spherical characters from which we draw some consequences for the Ichino-Ikeda conjecture for unitary groups.

In this paper we discuss a conjecture on intermediate subfactors which is a generalization of Wall's conjecture from the theory of finite groups. We explore special cases of this conjecture and present supporting evidence. In particular we…

In this paper, we extend the results of \cite{BCGS} on refined conjectures by Kurihara and Kolyvagin, allowing primes of any reduction type in the case of Kurihara's conjectures, and inert primes in the underlying imaginary quadratic field…

This is a Seminaire Bourbaki survey of the proof of the Kakeya conjecture in three dimensions. The survey is written for a broad mathematical audience. We sketch all the ideas in the proof, with many pictures.

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…
