We develop a systematic approach to quantum probability as a theory of rational betting in quantum gambles. In these games of chance the agent is betting in advance on the outcomes of several (finitely many) incompatible measurements. One…
In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem using a probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simpler for a student familiar with only basic…
In this paper we discuss a conjecture on intermediate subfactors which is a generalization of Wall's conjecture from the theory of finite groups. We explore special cases of this conjecture and present supporting evidence. In particular we…
The dimension of Kakeya sets can be bounded using sum-difference exponents $\SD(R;s)$ for various sets of rational slopes $R$ and output slope $s$; the arithmetic Kakeya conjecture, which implies the Kakeya conjecture in all dimensions,…
Let $X= \mathbb{P}^1 \setminus \{0,1,\infty\}$, and let $S$ denote a finite set of prime numbers. In an article of 2005, Minhyong Kim gave a new proof of Siegel's theorem for $X$: the set $X(\mathbb{Z}[S^{-1}])$ of $S$-integral points of…
In this paper we shall develop a theory of (extended) double shuffle relations of Euler sums which generalizes that of multiple zeta values (see Ihara, Kaneko and Zagier, \emph{Derivation and double shuffle relations for multiple zeta…
In the previous article, we showed the Rasmussen-Tamagawa conjecture for QM-abelian surfaces over imaginary quadratic fields. In this article, we generalize the previous work to QM-abelian surfaces over number fields of higher degree. We…
The ternary Goldbach conjecture (or three-prime conjecture) states that every odd number greater than 5 can be written as the sum of three primes. The purpose of this book is to give the first proof of the conjecture, in full.
The original proof of the Sharkovsky theorem is presented in full detail. The proof should be accessible to readers with basic Real Analysis background. Although nowadays there are several alternative proofs of this classical result, we…
We consider Guth's approach to the Fourier restriction problem via polynomial partitioning. By writing out his induction argument as a recursive algorithm and introducing new geometric information, known as the polynomial Wolff axioms, we…
The theory of stable pairs in the derived category yields an enumerative geometry of curves in 3-folds. We evaluate the equivariant vertex for stable pairs on toric 3-folds in terms of weighted box counting. In the toric Calabi-Yau case,…
To appear in Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics, published by Elsevier in early 2006. Comments/corrections welcome. The article surveys topological aspects in gauge theories.
We use correspondences to define a purely topological equivariant bivariant K-theory for spaces with a proper groupoid action. Our notion of correspondence differs slightly from that of Connes and Skandalis. We replace smooth K-oriented…
A number field K is a finite extension of rational number field Q. A circulant digraph integral over K means that all its eigenvalues are algebraic integers of K. In this paper we give the sufficient and necessary condition for circulant…
We establish the multiplicity conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan about the multiplicity of graded Cohen-Macaulay algebras over a field, for codimension two algebras and for Gorenstein algebras of codimension three. In fact, we…
In this short note, we give a proof of the free energy part of the BKMP conjecture of C^3 proposed by Bouchard and Sulkowski [4]. Hence the proof of the full BKMP conjecture for the case of C^3 has been finished.
In this article, we give a proof on the Arnold-Chekanov Lagrangian intersection conjecture on the cotangent bundles and its generalizations.
Notions of sesquiconstructible complexes and odd iterated stellar subdivisions are introduced, and some of their basic properties are verified. The Charney-Davis conjecture is then proven for odd iterated stellar subdivisions of…
We extend the Kolmogorov--Smirnov (K-S) test to multiple dimensions by suggesting a $\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow [0,1]$ mapping based on the probability content of the highest probability density region of the reference distribution under…
The present work focuses on studying the logarithmic tangent sheaf associated with sequences of two homogeneous polynomials in four variables. We introduce two positive discrete invariants: the invariant m and the Bourbaki degree of a…
