We prove relations between the number of $k$-connected components of a graph, Crapo's invariant $\beta(M)$ of a matroid, and Speyer's polynomial $g_M(t)$. These yield a simple interpretation of $g_M'(-1)$ when $M$ is graphic or cographic.…

Schubert polynomials $\mathfrak{S}_w$ are polynomial representatives for cohomology classes of Schubert varieties in a complete flag variety, while Grothendieck polynomials $\mathfrak{G}_w$ are analogous representatives for the $K$-theory…

In this paper, we explore the derived McKay correspondence for several reflection groups, namely reflection groups of rank two generated by reflections of order two. We prove that for each of the reflection groups $G=G(2m,m,2)$, $G_{12}$,…

Introduced by Goulden and Jackson in their 1996 paper, the matchings-Jack conjecture and the hypermap-Jack conjecture (also known as the $b$-conjecture) are two major open questions relating Jack symmetric functions, the representation…

Let $N$ be normal subgroup of a finite group $G$, $p$ be a prime, $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $\theta$ be a $P$-invariant irreducible character of $N$. Suppose that $G/N$ is a $p$-solvable group. In this note we show that,…

Hall and Paige conjectured in 1955 that a finite group $G$ has a complete mapping if and only if its Sylow $2$-subgroups are trivial or noncyclic. This conjecture was proved in 2009 by Wilcox, Evans, and Bray using the classification of…

We prove that for any prime $p>2$, $q=p^\nu$ a power of $p$, $n\ge p$ and $G=S_n$ or $G=A_n$ (symmetric or alternating group) there exists a Galois extension $K/\mathbb F_q(T)$ ramified only over $\infty$ with $\mathrm{Gal}(K/\mathbb…

In this paper, we prove the conjecture for the coefficients of the two variable generating function used in our previous paper. The conjecture was tested numerically before, but its proof was lacking up to now.

Let S_d be the symmetric group on d letters and let k be a field of characteristic p>2. Tensoring an irreducible S_d module with the sign representation defines an involution on the p-regular partitions of d. It is suprisingly difficult to…

We calculate the stable pair theory of a projective surface $S$. For fixed curve class $\beta\in H^2(S)$ the results are entirely topological, depending on $\beta^2$, $\beta.c_1(S)$, $c_1(S)^2$, $c_2(S)$, $b_1(S)$ \emph{and} invariants of…

It is conjectured by Chen and Raspaud that for each integer $k \ge 2$, any graph $G$ with \[ \mathrm{mad}(G) < \frac{2k+1}{k} \quad\text{and}\quad \mathrm{odd\text{-}girth}(G) \ge 2k+1 \] admits a homomorphism into the Kneser graph…

We classify the coefficients $(a_1,...,a_n) \in \mathbb{F}_q[t]^n$ that can appear in a linear relation $\sum_{i=1}^n a_i \gamma_i =0$ among Galois conjugates $\gamma_i \in \overline{\mathbb{F}_q(t)}$. We call such an $n$-tuple a Smyth…

J.C.Lagarias (2000) conjectured that if $\mu$ is a complex measure on p-dimensional Euclidean space with a uniformly discrete support and its spectrum (Fourier transform) is also a measure with a uniformly discrete support, then the support…

We compare the K-theories of symplectic quotients with respect to a compact connected Lie group and with respect to its maximal torus, and in particular we give a method for computing the former in terms of the latter. More specifically,…

In this paper, we prove one direction of the Gan--Gross--Prasad conjecture on metaplectic-symplectic groups for tempered cases. Furthermore, we also prove one direction of the non-tempered GGP conjecture for residual representations with…

In the early 2000's the first and second named authors worked for a period of six years in an attempt of proving the Compositional Shuffle Conjecture [1]. Their approach was based on the discovery that all the Combinatorial properties…

Following the work of Harris and Kudla we prove a more general form of a conjecture of Jacquet relating the non-vanishing of a certain period integral to non-vanishing of the central critical value of a certain $L$-function. As a…

We prove the Ramanujan-Petersson conjecture for Maass forms of the group $SL(2,Z)$, with the help of automorphic distribution theory and pseudodifferential analysis. The first notion is an alternative to classical automorphic function…

We prove that any countable discrete and torsion free subgroup of a general linear group over an arbitrary field or a similar subgroup of an almost connected Lie group satisfies the integral algebraic K-theoretic (split) Novikov conjecture…

Let $G$ be a smooth algebraic group over the field of rational functions of an excellent Dedekind scheme $S$ of equal characteristic $p>0.$ A N\'eron lft-model of $G$ is a smooth separated model $\mathscr{G} \to S$ of $G$ satisfying a…
