We prove that the alternating groups of degree at least $5$ are uniquely determined up to an abelian direct factor by the degrees of their irreducible complex representations. This confirms Huppert's Conjecture for alternating groups.
The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…
The Surface Group Conjectures are statements about recognising surface groups among one-relator groups, using either the structure of their finite-index subgroups, or all subgroups. We resolve these conjectures in the two generator case.…
We conjecture a Fibonacci-like property on the number of numerical semigroups of a given genus. Moreover we conjecture that the associated quotient sequence approaches the golden ratio. The conjecture is motivated by the results on the…
We show that the Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg conjecture for the Semi-Dihedral group of order 16 is true.
We show that the Coleman-Oort conjecture can be reduced to three particular cases. As an application we extend a result of Lu and Zuo, to the effect that for g at least 8 the Coleman-Oort conjecture is true on the hyperelliptic locus.
In a 1977 paper, Ringel conjectured a formula for the genus of the $n$-prism $K_n\times K_2$ and verified its correctness for about five-sixths of all values $n$. We complete this calculation by showing that, with the exception of $n = 9$,…
Let G be a finite group of nilpotency class 2 and w a group word. In this short paper we show that the probability that a random n-tuple of elements from G satisfies w is at least one over the order of G. This answers a special case of a…
We give a positive answer to the Huneke-Wiegand Conjecture for monomial ideals over free numerical semigroup rings, and for two generated monomial ideals over complete intersection numerical semigroup rings.
We prove a mean ergodic theorem for amenable discrete quantum groups. As an application, we prove a Wiener type theorem for continuous measures on compact metrizable groups.
Let $n\geq 2$ and $(X_i,1\leq i\leq n)$ be a centered Gaussian random vector. The Gaussian minimum conjecture says that $E\left(\min_{1\leq i\leq n}|X_i|\right)\geq E\left(\min_{1\leq i\leq n}|Y_i|\right)$, where $Y_1,\ldots,Y_n$ are…
We prove the K- and L-theoretic Farrell-Jones Conjecture (with coefficients in additive categories) for virtually solvable groups.
We use heuristic algorithms to find terraces for small groups. We show that Bailey's Conjecture (that all groups other than the non-cyclic elementary abelian 2-groups are terraced) holds up to order 511, except possibly at orders 256 and…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ without complex multiplication. If $\Gamma \subset E(\overline{K})$ is a subgroup of finite rank, a very special case of a conjecture of R\'emond predicts that points of small…
We study the connection between the condition that the reduced C*-algebra of a finitely presented group is exact and the Novikov conjecture holding. The main result states that if the group is strongly exact in the sense that the inclusion…
This paper will be concerned with proving that certain Whitehead groups of torsion-free elementary amenable groups are torsion groups and related results, and then applying these results to the Bass conjecture. In particular we shall…
The union-closed sets conjecture (Frankl's conjecture) says that for any finite union-closed family of finite sets, other than the family consisting only of the empty set, there exists an element that belongs to at least half of the sets in…
In a recent work Friedlander studied the problem of how large consecutive prime gaps should be in order that the sum of the reciprocals should be divergent. Supposing a very deep Hypothesis, a generalization of the Hardy--Littlewood prime…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\textrm{cd}(G)$ be the set of all complex irreducible character degrees of $G.$ In this paper, we show that if $\textrm{cd}(G)=\textrm{cd}(H),$ where $H$ is a finite simple exceptional group of Lie type,…
By a global approach, we prove the arithmetic fundamental lemma conjecture for unitary groups in $n$ variables over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ when $p\geq n$.
