In the context of predicting the behaviour of chaotic systems, Schroer, Sauer, Ott and Yorke conjectured in 1998 that if a dynamical system defined by a smooth diffeomorphism $T$ of a Riemannian manifold $X$ admits an attractor with a…

In 2008, Schmidt and Tuller stated a conjecture concerning optimal packing and covering of integers by translates of a given three-point set. In this note, we confirm their conjecture and relate it to several other problems in…

Let $\mu$ be a measure in $\mathbb R^d$ with compact support and continuous density, and let $$ R^s\mu(x)=\int\frac{y-x}{|y-x|^{s+1}}\,d\mu(y),\ \ x,y\in\mathbb R^d,\ \ 0<s<d. $$ We consider the following conjecture: $$ \sup_{x\in\mathbb…

In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…

A famous conjecture of Erd\H os and Straus is that for every integer $n\ge2$, $4/n$ can be represented as $1/x+1/y+1/z$, where $x,y,z$ are positive integers. This conjecture was generalized to $5/n$ by Sierpi\'nski, and then Schinzel…

We prove a version of Bourgain's projection theorem for parametrized families of $C^2$ maps, that refines the original statement even in the linear case. As one application, we show that if $A$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension close to…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension $d$. In 1973, Eisenbud and Evans proposed three conjectures on the polynomial ring $R[T]$. These conjectures were settled in the affirmative by Sathaye, Mohan Kumar and Plumstead. One of…

In Jurek 1985 and 1988 the random integral representations conjecture was stated. It claims that (some) limit laws can be written as probability distributions of random integrals of the form $\int_{(a,b]}h(t)dY_{\nu}(r(t))$, for some…

We prove a general nonlinear projection theorem for Assouad dimension. This theorem has several applications including to distance sets, radial projections, and sum-product phenomena. In the setting of distance sets we are able to…

For a compact set $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ the Hausdorff distance from $A$ to $\text{conv}(A)$ is defined by \begin{equation*} d(A):=\sup_{a\in\text{conv}(A)}\inf_{x\in A}|x-a|, \end{equation*} where for $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n$ we…

Let $X^n$ be a nonsingular hypersurface of degree $d\geq 2$ in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. We prove a Homma-Kim conjecture on a upper bound about the number of…

We consider Chebyshev polynomials, $T_n(z)$, for infinite, compact sets $\frak{e} \subset \mathbb{R}$ (that is, the monic polynomials minimizing the sup-norm, $\Vert T_n \Vert_{\frak{e}}$, on $\frak{e}$). We resolve a $45+$ year old…

The Serre conjecture II predicts that every torsor under a semisimple, simply connected, algebraic group over a field of cohomological dimension at most 2 and of degree of imperfection at most 1 has a rational point. We generalize this…

We consider two recent conjectures of Harrington, Henninger-Voss, Karhadkar, Robinson and Wong concerning relationships between the sum index, difference index and exclusive sum number of graphs. One conjecture posits an exact relationship…

For each parabolic subgroup $P$ of the general linear group $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$, a conjecture due to Lewis, Reiner and Stanton \cite{LewisReinerStanton2017} predicts a formula for the Hilbert series of the space of invariants…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be a Borel set, $\mu$ a Borel probability measure on $X$ and $T:X \to X$ a Lipschitz and injective map. Fix $k \in \mathbb{N}$ greater than the (Hausdorff) dimension of $X$ and assume that the set of…

We fully resolve the Furstenberg set conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^2$, that a $(s, t)$-Furstenberg set has Hausdorff dimension $\ge \min(s+t, \frac{3s+t}{2}, s+1)$. As a result, we obtain an analogue of Elekes' bound for the discretized…

Let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field K. In 1991, by studying a certain special value of the Katz two-variable p-adic L-function lying outside the range of…

Gr\"unbaum's inequality guarantees that the centroid of a convex body has halfspace depth at least $1/e$: every halfspace containing the centroid captures at least a $1/e$ fraction of the body's volume. For mixed-integer convex sets…

The $abc$ conjecture states that there are only finitely many triples of coprime positive integers $(a,b,c)$ such that $a+b=c$ and $\operatorname{rad}(abc) < c^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon > 0$. Using the optimized methods in a recent…
