We prove a strengthening of the trickle down theorem for partite complexes. Given a $(d+1)$-partite $d$-dimensional simplicial complex, we show that if "on average" the links of faces of co-dimension 2 are $\frac{1-\delta}{d}$-(one-sided)…

Generalizing the work of A. Morra and the authors, we give explicit formulas for the Dirichlet series generating function of $D_{\ell}$-extensions of odd prime degree $\ell$ with given quadratic resolvent. Over the course of our proof, we…

The Hartshorne conjecture predicts that two submanifolds X and Y in a projective manifold Z with ample normal bundles meets as soon as dim X + dim Y is at least dim Z. We mostly assume slightly stronger that one of the normal bundles is…

When a cone is added to a simplicial complex $\Delta$ over one of its faces, we investigate the relation between the arithmetical ranks of the Stanley-Reisner ideals of the original simplicial complex and the new simplicial complex…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

We formulate a precise conjecture that, if true, extends the converse theorem of Hecke without requiring hypotheses on twists by Dirichlet characters or an Euler product. The main idea is to linearize the Euler product, replacing it by…

This paper considers an extremal version of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. For a point set $P \subset \mathbb R^d$, let $\Delta(P)$ denote the set of all Euclidean distances determined by $P$. Our main result is the following: if…

Semidefinite programming optimises a linear objective function over a spectrahedron, and is one of the major advances of mathematical optimisation. Spectrahedra are described by linear pencils, which are linear matrix polynomials with…

The D'Angelo finite type is shown to be equivalent to the Kohn finite ideal type on smooth, pseudoconvex domains in complex n space. This is known as the Kohn Conjecture. The argument uses Catlin's notion of a boundary system as well as…

We propose an Artinian version of Berger's Conjecture for curves, concerning the module of K\"ahler differentials of an algebra. Our version implies Berger's Conjecture in characteristic 0. We establish our Artinian Berger Conjecture in a…

In this note by using elementary considerations, we settle Fr\"oberg's conjecture for a large number of cases, when all generators of ideals have the same degree.

We prove Euler's theorem of number theory developing an argument based on quandles. A quandle is an algebraic structure whose axioms mimic the three Reidemeister moves of knot theory.

We prove a conjecture of Northshield by determining the maximal order of his analogue of Stern's sequence for $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{2}]$. In particular, if $b$ is Northshield's analogue, we prove that…

In this note, we improve Nikulin's inequality in the case of right-angled hyperbolic polyhedra. The new inequality allows to give much shorter proofs of the known dimension bounds. We also improve Nonaka's lower bound on the number of ideal…

Let $(R,\fm,k)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring with dualizing complex $\dua R$, normalized by $\Ext^{\depth(R)}_R(k,\dua R)\cong k$. Partly motivated by a long standing conjecture of Tachikawa on (not necessarily commutative)…

P\'or and Wood conjectured that for all $k,l \ge 2$ there exists $n \ge 2$ with the following property: whenever $n$ points, no $l + 1$ of which are collinear, are chosen in the plane and each of them is assigned one of $k$ colours, then…

In this paper we are dealing with the problem of the existence of two divisors of $(n^2+1)/2$ whose sum is equal to $\delta n+\varepsilon$, in the case when $\delta$ and $\varepsilon$ are even, or more precisely in the case in which…

Let $f(n)$ be the maximum sum of the sides of non-overlapping squares (or equilateral triangles) packed inside a unit square or (unit equilateral triangle). In this paper, we explore some properties of $f$ and examine how the square and…

We state and investigate an integral analogue of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture (in integral models of Shimura varieties). We establish an instance of this conjecture: the case of a modular curve, as a scheme over Z. It is a scheme of…

The torsion anomalous conjecture states that for any variety V in an abelian variety there are only finitely many maximal V-torsion anomalous varieties. We prove this conjecture for V of codimension 2 in a product E^N of any elliptic curve…
