We survey the metric aspects of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture on the existence of special Lagrangian fibrations on Calabi-Yau manifolds near the large complex structure limit. We will discuss the diverse motivations for the…
A Kakeya set $S \subset (\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^n$ is a set containing a line in each direction. We show that, when $N$ is any square-free integer, the size of the smallest Kakeya set in $(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^n$ is at least…
We consider unions of $SL(2)$ lines in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. These are lines of the form $$L = (a,b,0) + \mathrm{span}(c,d,1),$$ where $ad - bc = 1$. We show that if $\mathcal{L}$ is a Kakeya set of $SL(2)$ lines, then the union $\cup…
In this paper, we study curved Kakeya sets associated with phase functions satisfying Bourgain's condition. In particular, we show that the analysis of curved Kakeya sets arising from translation-invariant phase functions under Bourgain's…
A few years ago, Fang, Lu and Yoshikawa conjectured that a certain string-theoretic invariant of Calabi-Yau threefolds is a birational invariant. We prove a weak form of this conjecture.
Following ideas of Iriyeh and Shibata we give a short proof of the three-dimensional Mahler conjecture {\mf for symmetric convex bodies}. Our contributions include, in particular, simple self-contained proofs of their two key statements.…
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
According to some discussions based on syllogism, we present results on the binary Goldbach conjecture in three categories: results that are weaker than the Goldbach conjecture, sufficient conditions for the Goldbach conjecture, and results…
Studying the mirror symmetry of a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ of the Reye congruence in $\mP^4$, we conjecture that $X$ has a non-trivial Fourier-Mukai partner $Y$. We construct $Y$ as the double cover of a determinantal quintic in $\mP^4$…
A "rational" version of the strengthened form of the Commuting Derivation Conjecture, in which the assumption of commutativity is dropped, is proved. A systematic method of constructing in any dimension greater than 3 the examples answering…
The main purpose of this article is to study higher order moments of Kummer sums weighted by $L$-functions using estimates for character sums and analytic methods. The results of this article complement a conjecture of Zhang Wenpeng (2002).…
This article is about polynomial maps with a certain symmetry and/or antisymmetry in their Jacobians, and whether the Jacobian Conjecture is satisfied for such maps, or whether it is sufficient to prove the Jacobian Conjecture for such…
In this short note, we prove a conjecture recently posed by Alekseyev, Amdeberhan, Shallit, and Vukusic on the 3-adic valuation of a cubic binomial sum.
In this paper, we develop the method of circle of partitions and associated statistics. As an application we prove conditionally the binary Goldbach conjecture. We develop a series of steps to prove the binary Goldbach conjecture in full.…
A particular case of the Jacobian conjecture is considered and for small dimensional cases a computational approach is offered
We describe in some details an idea of M. Kontsevich how one can try to find a counterexample to the Hodge conjecture using tropical geometry.
We study the behavior of the Kodaira dimension of algebraic fiber spaces over threefolds. We prove some cases of the Iitaka Conjecture $C_{n,3}$, including certain situations where the base variety is a Calabi--Yau threefold.
This is a survey on coarse geometry with an emphasis on coarse homology theories.
We recall the history of the proof of Seifert fibre space conjecture, as well as it motivations and its several generalisations.
The connections amongst (1) quivers whose representation varieties are Calabi-Yau, (2) the combinatorics of bipartite graphs on Riemann surfaces, and (3) the geometry of mirror symmetry have engendered a rich subject at whose heart is the…
