The Frankl conjecture (called also union-closed sets conjecture) is one of the famous unsolved conjectures in combinatorics of finite sets. In this short note, we introduce and to some extent justify some variants of the Frankl conjecture.
We reduce the Nowicki conjecture on the Weitzenb\"ock derivation of polynomial algebras to well-known problem of the classical invariant theory.
In 2013, Fici and Zamboni proved a number of theorems about finite and infinite words having only a small number of factors that are palindromes. In this paper we rederive some of their results, and obtain some new ones, by a different…
We prove the "strong conjecture" expressed by Gazeau et al. in arXiv:1203.3936v1 [math-ph] about the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the exponential of a polynomial. This implies the "weak conjecture" as a special case. The proof…
Solutions to the random Fibonacci recurrence x_{n+1}=x_{n} + or - Bx_{n-1} decrease (increase) exponentially, x_{n} = exp(lambda n), for sufficiently small (large) B. In the limits B --> 0 and B --> infinity, we expand the Lyapunov exponent…
By creating a new method, the author proved the well-known world's baffling problems Goldbach conjecture, twin primes conjecture, the Proposition (C) and the Proposition $n^2+1$.
We give a direct and intuitive proof (via sliding some columns up and down) of the following interesting fact: if we write out the Chebyshev polynomials in a chart and take the sums of coefficients along certain diagonals, we obtain the…
We give a proof of a result of Bonet, Engli\v{s} and Taskinen filling in several details and correcting some flaws.
We extend Fibonacci numbers with arbitrary weights and generalize a dozen Fibonacci identities. As a special case, we propose an elliptic extension which extends the $q$-Fibonacci polynomials appearing in Schur's work. The proofs of most of…
We present an elementary method for proving enumeration formulas which are polynomials in certain parameters if others are fixed and factorize into distinct linear factors over Z. Roughly speaking the idea is to prove such formulas by…
In 2013, Conway and Ryba wrote a fascinating paper called Fibonometry. The paper, as one might guess, is about the connection between Fibonacci numbers and trigonometry. We were fascinated by this paper and looked at how we could generalize…
First a few reformulations of Frankl's conjecture are given, in terms of reduced families or matrices, or analogously in terms of lattices. These lead naturally to a stronger conjecture with a neat formulation which might be easier to…
We define the notion of circular words, then consider on such words a constraint derived from the Fibonacci condition. We give several results on the structure of these circular words, then mention possible applications to various…
The conjecture of Masser-Oesterl\'e, popularly known as $abc$-conjecture have many consequences. We use an explicit version due to Baker to solve a number of conjectures.
These are some notes on the two Milnor conjectures and their proofs (due to Voevodsky, Orlov-Vishik-Voevodsky, and Morel).
Recently the Fibonacci word $W$ on an infinite alphabet was introduced by [Zhang et al., Electronic J. Combinatorics 24-2 (2017) #P2.52] as a fixed point of the morphism $\phi: (2i) \mapsto (2i)(2i+ 1),\ (2i+ 1) \mapsto (2i+ 2)$ over all $i…
Recently N. Levin (Comp. Math. 127 (2001), 1--21) proved the Tate conjecture for ordinary cubic fourfolds over finite fields. In this paper we prove the Tate conjecture for self-products of ordinary cubic fourfolds. Our proof is based on…
It is shown that the unique representation of positive integers in terms of tribonacci numbers and the unique representation in terms of iterated A, B and C sequences defined from the tribonacci word are equivalent. Two auxiliary…
In this very short note, we give a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Gilmer which would have implied the union-closed conjecture.
In this note, we study a certain class of trigonometric series which is important in many problems. An unproved statement in Zygmund's book [5] will be proved and generalized. Further discussions based on this problem will also be made…
