Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the similarity between two perturbations of the (backward) shift by rank one operators, under certain assumptions on the perturbations. The proof of similarity is based on an explicit…
The positivity of the Bondi mass has been proven in 4 dimensions, but in higher dimensions the issue remains open. The formalism of the present paper has been developed to investigate this and is well suited to the higher dimensional case.…
We present a direct proof of the second conjecture made by M. Atiyah and P. Sutcliffe for the case of convex quadrilaterals. Unlike previous work on this conjecture, our proof does not require any computer aided computations. The new proof…
The fundamental theorem in the theory of the uniform convergence of sine series is due to Chaundy and Jolliffe from 1916 (see [1]). Several authors gave conditions for this problem supposing that coefficients are monotone, non-negative or…
The Tijdeman-Zagier conjecture states no integer solution exists for $A^X+B^Y=C^Z$ with positive integer bases and integer exponents greater than 2 unless gcd$(A,B,C)>1$. Any set of values that satisfy the conjecture correspond to a lattice…
We establish the existence of an irreducible representation of $A_n$ whose dimension does not occur as the dimension of an irreducible representation of $S_n$, and vice versa. This proves a conjecture by Tong-Viet. The main ingredient in…
Let A be a finite dimensional associative algebra over an algebraically closed field with a simple module S of finite projective dimension. The strong no loop conjecture says that this implies Ext(S,S)=0, i.e. that the quiver of A has no…
For n>1, let G(n)=\sigma(n)/(n log log n), where \sigma(n) is the sum of the divisors of n. We prove that the Riemann Hypothesis is true if and only if 4 is the only composite number N satisfying G(N) \ge \max(G(N/p),G(aN)), for all prime…
Problem 4.19 in Ziegler's "Lectures on Polytopes" asserts that every simple $3$-dimensional polytope has the property that its dual can be constructed as the convex hull of a subset of the vertices of the original simple polytope. In this…
We prove bounds for the number of solutions to $$a_1 + \dots + a_k = a_1' + \dots + a_k'$$ over $N$-element sets of reals, which are sufficiently convex or near-convex. A near-convex set will be the image of a set with small additive…
The long-standing Alekseevskii conjecture states that a connected homogeneous Einstein space G/K of negative scalar curvature must be diffeomorphic to R^n. This was known to be true only in dimensions up to 5, and in dimension 6 for…
The aim of this paper is to establish some metrical coincidence and common fixed point theorems with an arbitrary relation under an implicit contractive condition which is general enough to cover a multitude of well known contraction…
In his paper "On the Schlafli differential equality", J. Milnor conjectured that the volume of n-dimensional hyperbolic and spherical simplices, as a function of the dihedral angles, extends continuously to the closure of the space of…
We propose a new formulation which realizes exact twisted supersymmetry for all the supercharges on a lattice by twisted superspace formalism. We show explicit examples of N=2 twisted supersymmetry invariant BF and Wess-Zumino models in two…
Consider the group ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ with the discrete topology, and denote its Fourier algebra by $A({{\mathbb{R}}_{\rm d}^2})$. We reformulate a theorem of V.A. Yudin as a statement about restrictions of functions in $A({{\mathbb{R}}_{\rm…
We establish an ideal-theoretic rigidity principle for quadratic distance images over integer residue rings. Specifically, we prove that near-extremal collapse of the distance set in $\mathbb{Z}_n^d$ forces strong algebraic structure…
Mason's Conjecture asserts that for an $m$--element rank $r$ matroid $\M$ the sequence $(I_k/\binom{m}{k}: 0\leq k\leq r)$ is logarithmically concave, in which $I_k$ is the number of independent $k$--sets of $\M$. A related conjecture in…
The famous twin paradox of the Special Theory of Relativity by Einstein (1905) is revisited and revised. This paradox is not a paradox in the true sense of a paradox but a reflection of a misunderstanding of the problem and the Principle of…
Let $A$ be a regular ring of dimension $d$ essentially of finite type over an infinite field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$. Let $P$ be a projective $A$-module of rank $n$ with $2n\geq d+3$. Let $I$ be an ideal of $A[T]$ of height $n$ and…
In this paper we review two symmetry axioms of special relativity and their connections to each other together with their role in some famous predictions of relativity theory, such as time dilation, length contraction, and the twin paradox.…
