We report here on the computational verification of a refinement of Zhi-Wei Sun's "1-3-5 conjecture" for all natural numbers up to 105 103 560 126. This, together with a result of two of the authors, completes the proof of that conjecture.
In this paper, we study some vanishing identities for Gromov-Witten invariants conjectured by K. Liu and H. Xu. We will prove these conjectures in the case that the summation range is large compare to genus. In fact, in such cases, we can…
We prove an interesting identity for the sum of determinants, which is a generalization of the sum of a geometric progression. The proof is quite long and a number of other identities are proved along the way. Some of the more elementary…
Wang and Blei (2019) studies multiple causal inference and proposes the deconfounder algorithm. The paper discusses theoretical requirements and presents empirical studies. Several refinements have been suggested around the theory of the…
In this paper we give some relation involving values of q-Bernoulli, q-Euler and Bernstein polynomials. From these relations, we obtain some interesting identities on the q-Bernoulli, q-Euler and Bernstein polynomials.
We prove a constant term conjecture of Robbins and Zeilberger (J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 66 (1994), 17-27), by translating the problem into a determinant evaluation problem and evaluating the determinant. This determinant generalizes the…
An algorithm for finding the eigenvalue of a nonnegative irreducible tensor was recently proposed by Michael Ng, Liqun Qi, and Guanglu Zhou in {\it Finding the largest eigenvalue of a nonnegative tensor}. However, the authors did not prove…
We prove a conjecture of H.Widom stated in [W] (math/0108008) about the reality of eigenvalues of certain infinite matrices arising in asymptotic analysis of large Toeplitz determinants. As a byproduct we obtain a new proof of A.Okounkov's…
We state and prove an explicit evaluation of a certain multi-variate integral and use it to furnish a new, and shorter, proof of an elegant determinant identity of Michael Dougherty and Jon McCammond that came up in their study of critical…
We solve two conjectures of Ceken-Palmieri-Wang-Zhang concerning discriminants and give some applications.
In the present paper we discuss the eigenvalue conjecture, suggested in 2012, in the particular case of $U_q(sl_2)$. The eigenvalue conjecture provides a certain symmetry for Racah coefficients and we prove that \textbf{the eigenvalue…
Consider $n$ linearly independent vectors in $\mathbb{C}^n$ which form columns of a matrix $A$. The recursive evaluation of eigen directions (normalized eigenvectors) of $A$ is the solution of an eigenvalue problem of the form…
We combine the powerful method of Wilf-Zeilberger pairs with systematic theory of multiple zeta values to prove a large number of series identities due to Z.W. Sun, many of them have been long standing conjectures.
The integral identity conjecture of Kontsevich and Soibelman plays an important role in proving the existence of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants for three-dimensional noncommutative Calabi-Yau manifolds. There are a number of different…
In a very recent paper "\emph{On eigenvalues and equivalent transformation of trigonometric matrices}" (D. Zhang, Z. Lin, and Y. Liu, LAA 436, 71--78 (2012)), the authors motivated and discussed a trigonometric matrix that arises in the…
We prove a strengthened form of a conjecture of Sun on a determinant attached to a binary quadratic form. Let $n>3$ and let $c,d\in\Z$. If $n$ is composite, then \[ \det\big[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{n-2}\big]_{0\leq i,j\leq n-1}\equiv 0\pmod {n^2}…
In this paper, by analyzing the quadratic factors of an $11$-th degree polynomial over the finite field $\ftwon$, a conjecture on permutation trinomials over $\ftwon[x]$ proposed very recently by Deng and Zheng is settled, where $n=2m$ and…
It is proven that a conjecture of Tao (2010) holds true for log-concave random variables on the integers: For every $n \geq 1$, if $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ are i.i.d. integer-valued, log-concave random variables, then $$ H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n+1}) \geq…
We present a new framework for computing Z-eigenvectors of general tensors based on numerically integrating a dynamical system that can only converge to a Z-eigenvector. Our motivation comes from our recent research on spacey random walks,…
We propose a theory of eigenvalues, eigenvectors, singular values, and singular vectors for tensors based on a constrained variational approach much like the Rayleigh quotient for symmetric matrix eigenvalues. These notions are particularly…
