The Collatz conjecture is explored using polynomials based on a binary numeral system. It is shown that the degree of the polynomials, on average, decreases after a finite number of steps of the Collatz operation, which provides a weak…
We prove a conjecture of K. Marton, widely known as the polynomial Freiman--Ruzsa conjecture, in characteristic $2$. The argument extends to odd characteristic, with details to follow in a subsequent paper.
In the present work we prove a number of surprising results about gaps between consecutive primes and arithmetic progressions in the sequence of generalized twin primes which could not have been proven without the recent fantastic…
The Krzy\.z conjecture concerns the largest values of the Taylor coefficients of a non-vanishing analytic function bounded by one in modulus in the unit disk. It has been open since 1968 even though information on the structure of extremal…
The polynomial Fre\u{\i}man--Ruzsa conjecture is a fundamental open question in additive combinatorics. However, over the integers (or more generally $\mathbb{R}^d$ or $\mathbb{Z}^d$) the optimal formulation has not been fully pinned down.…
We prove some properties of positive polynomial mappings between Riesz spaces, using finite difference calculus. We establish the polynomial analogue of the classical result that positive, additive mappings are linear. And we prove a…
We prove the volume conjecture for any twist knots by using an equivalence relation, complex analysis, analytic continuation, and function of several complex variables on the basis of colored Jones polynomials.
We obtain similar types of conclusions as that of Br\"{u}ck [1] for two differential polynomials which in turn radically improve and generalize several existing results. Moreover, a number of examples have been exhibited to justify the…
We prove two polynomial identities which are particular cases of a conjecture arising in the theory of L-functions of twisted Carlitz modules. This conjecture is stated in earlier papers of the second author.
We prove that the product version of the 1-2-3 Conjecture, raised by Skowronek-Kazi{\'o}w in 2012, is true. Namely, for every connected graph with order at least 3, we prove that we can assign labels 1,2,3 to the edges in such a way that no…
In 2021, J.~Agler and J.~E. McCarthy proposed a two-step programme toward the celebrated Krzy\.z conjecture. The first step is to prove an entropy conjecture for polynomials whose zeros all lie on the unit circle; the second is to establish…
The Schinzel hypothesis is a famous conjectural statement about primes in value sets of polynomials, which generalizes the Dirichlet theorem about primes in an arithmetic progression. We consider the situation that the ring of integers is…
We prove a formula for the structure sheaf of a quiver variety in the Grothendieck ring of its embedding variety. This formula generalizes and gives new expressions for Grothendieck polynomials. We furthermore conjecture that the…
We consider random polynomials with independent identically distributed coefficients with a fixed law. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for Dedekind zeta functions, we prove that such polynomials are irreducible and their Galois groups…
The paper [GLZ] "L-functions of Carlitz modules, resultantal varieties and rooted binary trees" is devoted to a description of some resultantal varieties related to L-functions of Carlitz modules. It contains a conjecture that some of these…
Kottwitz' conjecture is concerned with the intersections of Kazhdan--Lusztig cells with conjugacy classes of involutions in finite Coxeter groups. In joint work with Bonnaf\'e, we have recently found a way to prove this conjecture for…
This survey presents some combinatorial problems with number-theoretic flavor. Our journey starts from a simple graph coloring question, but at some point gets close to a dangerous territory of the Riemann Hypothesis. We will mostly focus…
We build a variant of Collatz Conjecture for polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_2$ and we prove that it is solved. By the way, we give several examples.
We present a new proof of Witten's conjecture. The proof is based on the analysis of the relationship between intersection indices on moduli spaces of complex curves and Hurwitz numbers enumerating ramified coverings of the 2-sphere.
In this paper, we first prove the coefficient conjecture of Clunie and Sheil-Small for a class of univalent harmonic functions which includes functions convex in some direction. Next, we prove growth and covering theorems and some related…
