It is known that the Scholz conjecture on addition chains is true for all integers $n$ with $\ell(2n) = \ell(n)+1$. There exists infinitely many integers with $\ell(2n) \leq \ell(n)$ and we don't know if the conjecture still holds for them.…

We give a stability theoretic proof of the algebraic regularity lemma of Tao, making use of a lemma of Hrushovski. We also point out that the underlying results hold at the level of measurable theories and structures in the sense of Elwes,…

This note (originally from 2015) provides a proof of a 1985 conjecture of Montiel and Ros concerning the conformal volume of tori. This updated version adds a proof of the claim made in Remark 5 about the value of the conformal volume of…

Enrico Bombieri proved that the ABC Conjecture implies Roth's theorem in 1994. This paper concerns the other direction. In making use of Bombieri's and Van der Poorten's explicit formula for the coefficients of the regular continued…

In this article, we discuss and survey the recent progress towards the Schottky problem, and make some comments on the relations between the Andr{\'e}-Oort conjecture, Okounkov convex bodies, Coleman's conjecture, stable modular forms,…

The work presents the second part of the second edition of its previous one published in 2000 under the same title, containing the proof (in ZF) of the inaccessible cardinals nonexistence, which is enriched and improved now. This part…

In this article we'll emphasize on two triangles and provide a vectorial proof of the fact that these triangles have the same orthocenter. This proof will further allow us to develop a vectorial proof of the Stevanovic's theorem relative to…

Improving a result of Woodin, we identify some classes of individually consistent but mutually inconsistent generic large cardinal axioms.

We formulate a generalization of Vojta's conjecture in terms of log pairs and variants of multiplier ideals. In this generalization, a variety is allowed to have singularities. It turns out that the generalized conjecture for a log pair is…

We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e. the cofinality of lambda^lambda is strictly bigger than cov(meagre_lambda), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…

We present a covering conjecture that we expect to be true below superstrong cardinals. We then show that the conjecture is true in hod mice. This work is a continuation of the work that started in Covering with Universally Baire Functions…

For a compact and convex window, Mecke described a process of tessellations which arise from cell divisions in discrete time. At each time step, one of the existing cells is selected according to an equally-likely law. Independently, a line…

Given a rank 3 real arrangement $\mathcal A$ of $n$ lines in the projective plane, the Dirac-Motzkin conjecture (proved by Green and Tao in 2013) states that for $n$ sufficiently large, the number of simple intersection points of $\mathcal…

In 2007, Dmytrenko, Lazebnik and Williford posed two related conjectures about polynomials over finite fields. Conjecture~1 is a claim about the uniqueness of certain monomial graphs. Conjecture~2, which implies Conjecture~1, deals with…

We give a new proof for Godel's second incompleteness theorem, based on Kolmogorov complexity, Chaitin's incompleteness theorem, and an argument that resembles the surprise examination paradox. We then go the other way around and suggest…

The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without isolated edges can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general, while it is known to be…

We give a proof of the Greene-Krantz conjecture on convex domains in $\CC^2$. Curiously, the proof technique depends on subelliptic estimates for the $\bar{\partial}$ problem.

We prove a result concerning elementary embeddings of the set-theoretic universe into itself (Reinhardt embeddings) and functions on ordinals that "eventually dominate" such embeddings. We apply that result to show the existence of…

Voskresenskii conjectured that stably rational tori are rational. Klyachko proved this assertion for a wide class of tori by general principles. We re-prove Klyachko's result by providing simple explicit birational isomorphisms, and…

We argue that Godel's completeness theorem is equivalent to completability of consistent theories, and Godel's incompleteness theorem is equivalent to the fact that this completion is not constructive, in the sense that there are some…
