We study relative Cohn path algebras, also known as Leavitt-Cohn path algebras, and we realize them as partial skew group rings (to do this we prove uniqueness theorems for relative Cohn path algebras). Furthermore, given any graph $E$ we…

In one of his papers on the weak order of Coxeter groups, Dyer formulates several conjectures. Among these, one affirms that the extended weak order forms a lattice, while another offers an algebraic-geometric description of the join of two…

In this article, we discuss the notion of partition of elements in an arbitrary Coxeter system $(W,S)$: a partition of an element $w$ is a subset $\mathcal P\subseteq W$ such that the left inversion set of $w$ is the disjoint union of the…

We prove two conjectures in spectral extremal graph theory involving the linear combinations of graph eigenvalues. Let $\lambda_1(G)$ be the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph $G$, and $\bar{G}$ be the complement of $G$.…

The generalized Lax conjecture asserts that each hyperbolicity cone is a linear slice of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. We prove the conjecture for a multivariate generalization of the matching polynomial. This is further…

Chen proposed a conjecture on the log-concavity of the generating function for the symmetric group with respect to the length of longest increasing subsequences of permutations. Motivated by Chen's log-concavity conjecture, B\'{o}na,…

For a composition $\lambda$ of $n$ we consider the Kazhdan-Lusztig cell in the symmetric group $S_n$ containing the longest element of the standard parabolic subgroup of $S_n$ associated to $\lambda$. In this paper we extend some of the…

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

King's conjecture states that on every smooth complete toric variety $X$ there exists a strongly exceptional collection which generates the bounded derived category of $X$ and which consists of line bundles. We give a counterexample to this…

This paper contains the results of my PhD-thesis. I will show the K- and L-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture (FJC) for the general linear groups over the rationals and over the rational functions over a finite field. This especially…

For a graph $G$, $n$ denotes the order of $G$, $p$ the order of a longest path in $G$ and $c$ the order of a longest cycle. We show that if $G$ is a 2-connected graph such that $d(x)+d(y)+d(z)\ge p+2$ for all triples $x,y,z$ of independent…

Given a directed acyclic graph with positive edge-weights, two vertices s and t, and a threshold-weight L, we present a fully-polynomial time approximation-scheme for the problem of counting the s-t paths of length at most L. We extend the…

A conjecture of Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy says that in every $2$-coloring of the edges of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph $K_n^k$, there are two disjoint monochromatic loose paths of distinct colors such that they cover all…

In 2000, Enomoto and Ota conjectured that if a graph $G$ satisfies $\sigma_{2}(G) \geq n + k - 1$, then for any set of $k$ vertices $v_{1}, \dots, v_{k}$ and for any positive integers $n_{1}, \dots, n_{k}$ with $\sum n_{i} = |G|$, there…

We prove that any quasigroup admissing complete or quasicomplete mapping has a prolongation to a quasigroup having one element more.

Let $G$ be a bridgeless cubic graph. In 2023, the three authors solved a conjecture (also known as the $S_4$-Conjecture) made by Mazzuoccolo in 2013: there exist two perfect matchings of $G$ such that the complement of their union is a…

Let $M$ be a matroid without loops or coloops and let $T(M;x,y)$ be its Tutte polynomial. In 1999 Merino and Welsh conjectured that $$\max(T(M;2,0), T(M;0,2))\geq T(M;1,1)$$ holds for graphic matroids. Ten years later, Conde and Merino…

Let G be a complete convex geometric graph on 2m vertices, and let F be a family of subgraphs of G. A blocker for F is a set of edges, of smallest possible size, that meets every element of F. In [C. Keller and M. A. Perles, On the smallest…

Considering all possible paths that a natural number can take following the rules of the algorithm proposed in the Collatz conjecture we construct a graph that can be interpreted as an infinite network that contemplates all possible paths…

For an acyclic directed graph with multiple sources and multiple sinks, we prove that one can choose the Merger's paths between the sources and the sinks such that the number of mergings between these paths is upper bounded by a constant…
