The Brian\c{c}on-Iarrobino conjecture predicts the maximum singularity of the Hilbert scheme of a tetrahedral number of points. As for the maximal singularities of the Hilbert scheme of a non-tetrahedral number of points, the second named…

We provide conjectural necessary and (separately) sufficient conditions for the Hilbert scheme of points of a given length to have the maximum dimension tangent space at a point. The sufficient condition is claimed for 3D and reduces the…

The Rayleigh Conjecture for the bilaplacian consists in showing that the clamped plate with least principal eigenvalue is the ball. The conjecture has been shown to hold in 1995 by Nadirashvili in dimension $2$ and by Ashbaugh and Benguria…

In this paper we study the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^3$, motivated by Haiman's work on $\mathrm{Hilb}^d \mathbf{P}^2$ and by a long-standing conjecture of Brian\c{c}on and Iarrobino on the most singular…

In 1995, Nadirashvili and subsequently Ashbaugh and Benguria proved the Rayleigh Conjecture concerning the first eigenvalue of the bilaplacian with clamped boundary conditions in dimension $2$ and $3$. Since then, the conjecture has…

Works of Hooley and Heath-Brown imply a near-optimal bound on the number $N$ of integral solutions to $x_1^3+\dots+x_6^3 = 0$ in expanding regions, conditional on automorphy and GRH for certain Hasse--Weil $L$-functions; for regions of…

Frankl and F\"uredi conjectured in 1989 that the maximum Lagrangian of all $r$-uniform hypergraphs of fixed size $m$ is realized by the minimum hypergraph $C_{r,m}$ under the colexicographic order. In this paper, we prove a weaker version…

We verify the maximum conjecture on the rigidity of totally nondegenerate model CR manifolds in the following two cases: (i) for all models of CR dimension one (ii) for the so-called full-models, namely those in which their associated…

We propose a "Coprime Buratti-Horak-Rosa (BHR) Conjecture": If $L$ is a multiset of size $v-1$ with support contained in $\{1, 2, \ldots, \lfloor v/2 \rfloor\}$ such that $\gcd(v,x) = 1$ for all $x \in L$, then $L$ is realizable. This is a…

We consider the Hardy-H\'enon system $-\Delta u =|x|^a v^p$, $-\Delta v =|x|^b u^q$ with $p,q>0$ and $a,b\in {\mathbb R}$ and we are concerned in particular with the Liouville property, i.e. the nonexistence of positive solutions in the…

We prove a conjecture of Toponogov on complete convex planes, namely that such planes must contain an umbilic point, albeit at infinity. Our proof is indirect. It uses Fredholm regularity of an associated Riemann-Hilbert boundary value…

In this paper, we continue the study of Serrano's conjecture in low dimensions. We focus on two special cases of the log version of Serrano's conjecture: the ampleness conjecture and the log version of Campana--Peternell's conjecture. In…

Webb's conjecture states that the orbit space of the Brown complex of a finite group at any given prime $\ell$ is contractible. This conjecture was proved by Symonds in 1998. In this paper, we suggest a generalisation of Webb's conjecture…

In this paper we partially resolve Hall's conjecture about the distribution of random triangles. We consider the probability that three points chosen uniformly at random, in a bounded convex region of the plane, form an acute triangle.…

We show that among any $n$ points in the unit cube one can find a triangle of area at most $n^{-2/3-c}$ for some absolute constant $c >0$. This gives the first non-trivial upper bound for the three-dimensional version of Heilbronn's…

In 1978 Lipman presented a proof of the existence of a desingularization for any excellent surface. The strategy of Lipman's proof is based on the finiteness of the number H(R) defined as the supreme of the second Hilbert-Samuel coefficient…

\begin{abstract} This paper deals with an extremal problem for bounded harmonic functions in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n.$ We solve the Khavinson conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^3,$ an intriguing open question since 1992 posed by D. Khavinson,…

Some PARI programs have bringed out a property for the non-genus part of the class number of the imaginary quadratic fields, with respect to $(\sqrt D\,)^{\varepsilon}$, where $D$ is the absolute value of the discriminant and $\varepsilon…

We prove an upper bound on the log canonical threshold of a hypersurface that satisfies a certain power condition and use it to prove several generalizations of Igusa's conjecture on exponential sums, with the log-canonical threshold in the…

Consider the problem {ll} \Delta^2 u= \lambda e^{u} &\text{in} B u=\frac{\partial u}{\partial n}=0 &\text{on}\partial B, where $B$ is the unit ball in $\R^N$ and $\lambda$ is a parameter. Unlike the Gelfand problem the natural candidate…
