We show that a closed piecewise-linear hypersurface immersed in $R^n$ ($n\ge 3$) is the boundary of a convex body if and only if every point in the interior of each $(n-3)$-face has a neighborhood that lies on the boundary of some convex…
We apply the techniques developed by Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava, working with principal submatrices in place of rank $1$ decompositions to give an alternate proof of their results on restricted invertibility. We show that one can find…
Consider a random matrix $H:\mathbb{R}^n\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}^m$. Let $D\geq2$ and let $\{W_l\}_{l=1}^{p}$ be a set of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We ask what is the probability that for all $1\leq l\leq p$ and…
We study versions of Helly's theorem that guarantee that the intersection of a family of convex sets in $R^d$ has a large diameter. This includes colourful, fractional and $(p,q)$ versions of Helly's theorem. In particular, the fractional…
This is (mainly) a survey of recent results on the problem of the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms and Reeb flows. We focus on the Conley conjecture, proved for a broad class of closed symplectic…
We prove the four-dimensional Gaussian random vector maximum conjecture. This conjecture asserts that among all centered Gaussian random vectors $X=(X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4)$ with $E[X_i^2]=1$, $1\le i\le 4$, the expectation…
Mahler's conjecture asks whether the cube is a minimizer for the volume product of a body and its polar in the class of symmetric convex bodies in R^n. The corresponding inequality to the conjecture is sometimes called the the reverse…
The P\'osa-Seymour conjecture asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $(1 - 1/(r+1))n$ contains the $r^{th}$ power of a Hamilton cycle. Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi famously proved the conjecture for…
The study of the diameter of the graph of polyhedra is a classical problem in the theory of linear programming. While transportation polytopes are at the core of operations research and statistics it is still open whether the Hirsch…
Christoph, Dragani\'{c}, Gir\~{a}o, Hurley, Michel, and M\"{u}yesser conjectured that, when $d\mid n$, the expected number of cycles in a uniformly random cycle-factor of a directed $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices is uniquely maximised by…
This article is motivated by a conjecture proposed by Sinai Robins in 2024. The conjecture asserts that two convex, centrally symmetric sets of positive measure that are not multi-tilers must coincide up to rigid motions if and only if…
In this paper we consider the problem of how large the Hausdorff dimension of $E\subset\R^d$ needs to be in order to ensure that the radii set of $(d-1)$-dimensional spheres determined by $E$ has positive Lebesgue measure. We also study the…
Let G be a simple complex algebraic group. We prove that the irregularity of the adjoint connection of an irregular flat G-bundle on the formal punctured disk is always greater than or equal to the rank of G. This can be considered as a…
Y. Manoussakis (J. Graph Theory 16, 1992, 51-59) proposed the following conjecture. \noindent\textbf{Conjecture}. {\it Let $D$ be a 2-strongly connected digraph of order $n$ such that for all distinct pairs of non-adjacent vertices $x$, $y$…
In 1973, J. Cheeger and J. Simons raised the following question that still remains open and is known as the Rational Simplex Problem: Given a geodesic simplex in the spherical 3-space so that all of its interior dihedral angles are rational…
We analyse the class of convex functionals $\mathcal E$ over $\mathrm{L}^2(X,m)$ for a measure space $(X,m)$ introduced by Cipriani and Grillo and generalising the classic bilinear Dirichlet forms. We investigate whether such non-bilinear…
In 1984, Winkler conjectured that every simple Venn diagram with $n$ curves can be extended to a simple Venn diagram with $n+1$ curves. His conjecture is equivalent to the statement that the dual graph of any simple Venn diagram has a…
Frieze patterns (in the sense of Conway and Coxeter) are in close connection to triangulations of polygons. Broline, Crowe and Isaacs have assigned a symmetric matrix to each polygon triangulation and computed the determinant. In this paper…
Let $\Delta=\Delta_1\times\ldots\times \Delta_d\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, where $\mathbb{R}^n=\mathbb{R}^{n_1}\times\cdots\times\mathbb{R}^{n_d}$ with each $\Delta_i\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n_i}$ a non-degenerate simplex of $n_i$ points. We prove…
In this paper we prove the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture for the case of large radii. Namely, if a finite number of points in Euclidean space $E^n$ is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of points does not decrease, then there…
