We formulate a conjecture classifying algebraic solutions to (possibly non-linear) algebraic differential equations, in terms of the primes appearing in the denominators of the coefficients of their Taylor expansion at a non-singular point.…
We introduce a new technique that allows us to make progress on two long standing conjectures in transcendental dynamics: Baker's conjecture that a transcendental entire function of order less than 1/2 has no unbounded Fatou components, and…
Consider the family of all perfect matchings of the complete graph $K_{2n}$ with $2n$ vertices. Given any collection $\mathcal M$ of perfect matchings of size $s$, there exists a maximum number $f(n,x)$ such that if $s\leq f(n,x)$, then…
Motivated by the well-known conjecture of Ryser which relates maximum matchings to minimum vertex covers in $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraphs, Lov\'asz formulated a stronger conjecture. It states that one can always reduce the matching…
Given the matrix equation ${\bf A X} + {\bf X B} + f({\bf X }) {\bf C} ={\bf D}$ in the unknown $n\times m$ matrix ${\bf X }$, we analyze existence and uniqueness conditions, together with computational solution strategies for $f \,:…
In this paper I consider the applications of several kinds of approximations of real functions to the problem of verified computation (reliable computing) of the range of implicitly defined real function $x_{n+1} = G(x_{1}, ..., x_{n}),$…
Assuming a modular version of Schanuel's conjecture and the modular Zilber-Pink conjecture, we show that the existence of generic solutions of certain families of equations involving the modular $j$ function can be reduced to the problem of…
We axiomatize and generalize Markov's approach to the continuity problem for Type 1 computable functions, i.e. the problem of finding sufficient conditions on a computable topological space to obtain a theorem of the form "computable…
The classic Riesz representation theorem characterizes all linear and increasing functionals on the space $C_{c}(X)$ of continuous compactly supported functions. A geometric version of this result, which characterizes all linear increasing…
The article deals with iterative methods of solving linear operator equations $x = Bx + f$ and $Ax = f$ with self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space $X$ in critical case when $\rho(B) = 1$ and $0 \in {\rm Sp}\, A$. The main results are…
Given a continuous function from Euclidean space to the real line, we analyze (under some natural assumption on the function), the set of values it takes on translates of lattices. Our results are of the flavor: For almost any translate,…
Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of any given bipartite graph in another graph of given density is asymptotically minimized by a random graph. The forcing conjecture further strengthens this, claiming that any…
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…
This paper solves in a positive manner a conjecture stated in 2000 by R. G\'omez-Re\~nasco and J. L\'opez-G\'omez regarding the multiplicity of positive solutions of a paradigmatic class of superlinear indefinite boundary value problems.
In this paper we prove that the condition one-to-one of continuous open-resolvable mapping is necessary in the Ostrovsky's Theorem. Also we get that the Ostrovsky's Problem (Is every open-LCn function between Polish spaces piecewise open…
We analyze the role played by $n$-convexity for the fulfillment of a series of linear functional inequalities that extend the Hornich-Hlawka functional inequality, $f\left( x\right) +f\left( y\right) +f\left( z\right) +f\left( x+y+z\right)…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture is one of the most renowned problems in combinatorics. Its appeal lies in the simplicity of its statement contrasted with the potential complexity of its resolution. The conjecture posits that, in any union…
A completion of an m-by-n matrix A with entries in {0,1,*} is obtained by setting all *-entries to constants 0 or 1. A system of semi-linear equations over GF(2) has the form Mx=f(x), where M is a completion of A and f:{0,1}^n --> {0,1}^m…
Recent work of C. Fefferman and the first author has demonstrated that the linear system of equations \begin{equation*} \sum_{j=1}^M A_{ij}(x)F_j(x)=f_i(x)\hspace{.2in} (i=1,...,N), \end{equation*} has a $C^m$ solution $F=(F_1,...,F_M)$ if…
We consider the problem of describing all non-negative integer solutions to a linear congruence in many variables. This question may be reduced to solving the congruence $x_1 + 2x_2 + 3x_3 + ... + (n-1)x_{n-1} \equiv 0 \pmod n$ where values…
