We prove Arnol'd's chord conjecture for all Legendrian submanifolds of cosphere bundles of closed manifolds isotopic to conormal bundles of closed submanifolds. Our method of proof involves an isomorphism between wrapped Floer cohomology…
The classical Berge-Fulkerson conjecture states that any bridgeless cubic graph $G$ admits a list of six perfect matchings such that each edge of $G$ belongs to two of the perfect matchings from the list. In this short note, we discuss two…
We construct 0-cycles on the product of 2 elliptic curves, which are not detectable by Bloch's analytic motivic cohomology.
We prove that the billiard claimed to be a possible counterexample to the Birkhoff-Poritsky conjecture is actually not a counterexample. We also show that for a billiard in a table obtained by the string construction over any convex…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the class of all graphs with no induced four-edge path or four-edge antipath. Hayward and Nastos \cite{MS} conjectured that every prime graph in $\mathcal{G}$ not isomorphic to the cycle of length five is either a split…
In this article, we give a proof on the Arnold-Chekanov Lagrangian intersection conjecture on the cotangent bundles and its generalizations.
The Directed Grid Theorem, stating that there is a function $f$ such that a directed graphs of directed treewidth at least $f(k)$ contains a directed grid of size at least $k$ as a butterfly minor, after being a conjecture for nearly 20…
The grid theorem, originally proved by Robertson and Seymour in Graph Minors V in 1986, is one of the most central results in the study of graph minors. It has found numerous applications in algorithmic graph structure theory, for instance…
We prove a recent conjecture of Beisegel et al. that for every positive integer k, every graph containing an induced P_k also contains an avoidable P_k. Avoidability generalises the notion of simpliciality best known in the context of…
Hoffmann-Ostenhof's Conjecture states that states that the edge set of every connected cubic graph can be decomposed into a spanning tree, a matching and a $2$-regular subgraph. In this paper, we show that the conjecture holds for claw-free…
Let $D$ be any elliptic right cylinder. We prove that every type of knot can be realized as the trajectory of a ball in $D.$ This proves a conjecture of Lamm and gives a new proof of a conjecture of Jones and Przytycki. We use Jacobi's…
We prove that any \(2\)-connected graph \(G\) on \(n\) vertices with minimum degree \(\delta(G) \ge \frac{n}{4}+2\) contains a \(2\)-connected subgraph of order \(k\) for every integer \(k\) with \(4 \le k \le n\). This improves a previous…
Refining a basic result of Alexander, we show that two flag simplicial complexes are piecewise linearly homeomorphic if and only if they can be connected by a sequence of flag complexes, each obtained from the previous one by either an edge…
Suppose X is a projective toric scheme defined over a commutative ring R equipped with an ample line bundle L. We prove that its K-theory has k+1 direct summands K(R) where k is minimal among non-negative integers such that the twisted line…
We formulate a precise conjecture that, if true, extends the converse theorem of Hecke without requiring hypotheses on twists by Dirichlet characters or an Euler product. The main idea is to linearize the Euler product, replacing it by…
We prove `twisted' versions of Kirchhoff's network theorem and Kirchhoff's matrix-tree theorem on connected finite graphs. Twisting here refers to chains with coefficients in a flat unitary line bundle.
In this work, we establish an analogue result of the Erd\"os-Stone theorem of weighted digraphs using Regularity Lemma of digraphs. We give a stability result of oriented graphs and digraphs with forbidden blow-up transitive triangle and…
In a directed graph, a kernel is a subset of vertices that is both stable and absorbing. Not all digraphs have a kernel, but a theorem due to Boros and Gurvich guarantees the existence of a kernel in every clique-acyclic orientation of a…
We prove a conjecture by Aboulker, Charbit and Naserasr by showing that every oriented graph in which the out-neighborhood of every vertex induces a transitive tournament can be partitioned into two acyclic induced subdigraphs. We prove…
Given any polytope $P$ and any generic linear functional ${\bf c} $, one obtains a directed graph $G(P,{\bf c})$ from the 1-skeleton of $P$ by orienting each edge $e(u,v)$ from $u$ to $v$ for ${\bf c} (u) < {\bf c} ( v)$. For $P$ a simple…
