The famous (3n + 1) or Collatz conjecture has admitted some progress over the last several decades towards the conclusion that the conjecture is true (i.e. that all Collatz sequences will eventually reach a value of one), but has stubbornly…

We analyze matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined on a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus. We obtain for each order conditions for matrix…

Collatz Conjecture is one of the most famous, for its simple form, proposed more than eighty years ago. This paper presents a full attempt to prove the affirmative answer to the question proposed by the conjecture. In the first section, we…

We extend the classical construction of operator colligations and characteristic functions. Consider the group $G$ of finite block unitary matrices of size $\alpha+\infty+...+\infty$ ($k$ times). Consider the subgroup $K=U(\infty)$, which…

We resolve a 25 year old problem by showing that The Paving Conjecture is equivalent to The Paving Conjecture for Triangular Matrices.

An alternative computational approach to the Collatz (3n+1) conjecture is presented that may be theoretically capable of confirming the conjecture.

We show that the "double circle" order type and some of its generalizations have a compatible triangulation with any other order types with the same number of points and number of edges on convex hull, thus proving another special case of…

In order to precondition Toeplitz systems, we present a new class of simultaneously diagonalizable real matrices, the Gamma-matrices, which include both symmetric circulant matrices and a subclass of the set of all reverse circulant…

We establish the exact overlaps conjecture for iterated functions systems on the real line with algebraic contractions and arbitrary translations.

Using the unbounded picture of analytical K-homology, we associate a well-defined K-homology class to an unbounded symmetric operator satisfying certain mild technical conditions. We also establish an ``addition formula'' for the Dirac…

Brou\'{e}'s Abelian Defect Conjecture predicts interesting derived equivalences between derived categories of modular representations of finite groups. We investigate a generalization of Brou\'{e}'s Conjecture to ring spectrum coefficients…

Forsythe formulated a conjecture about the asymptotic behavior of the restarted conjugate gradient method in 1968. We translate several of his results into modern terms, and generalize the conjecture (originally formulated only for…

In this paper, we give three different new proofs of the validity of the geometry conjecture about cycles of projections onto nonempty closed, convex subsets of a Hilbert space. The first uses a simple minimax theorem, which depends on the…

The Collatz conjecture asserts that repeatedly iterating $f(x) = (3x + 1)/2^{a(x)}$, where $a(x)$ is the highest exponent for which $2^{a(x)}$ exactly divides $3x+1$, always lead to $1$ for any odd positive integer $x$. Here, we present an…

Let O be a cyclic topological operad with multiplication. In the framework of the cosimplicial machinery by McClure and Smith, we prove that the totalization of the cosimplicial space associated to O has an action of an operad equivalent to…

In this paper, we study matrix representations of truncated Toeplitz operators with respect to orthonormal bases which are invariant under a canonical conjugation map. In particular, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for when…

Anderson's paving conjectures are known to be equivalent to the Kadison-Singer problem. We prove some new equivalences of Anderson's conjectures that require the paving of smaller sets of matrices. We prove that if the strictly upper…

Taking a new approach towards analyzing the Collatz Problem, or, 3x+1 conjecture. Introducing some new functions, the Collatz-2 and Collatz-3 sequences, as well as deducing results related to Collatz-2 and Collatz-3 sequences.

In the acyclic case, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between the tilting objects of the cluster category and the clusters of the associated cluster algebra. This correspondence enables us to solve conjectures on cluster algebras.…

The Graded Classification Conjecture (GCC) states that the pointed $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}$-group is a complete invariant of the Leavitt path algebras of finite graphs when these algebras are considered with their natural grading by…
