The fact that each finite-dimensional algebra over a field is isomorphic to the centralizer of two matrices, has suggested to investigate representation theoretical problems of finite-dimensional algebras through centralizer algebras of…

Anderson's theorem states that if the numerical range W(A) of an n-by-n matrix A is contained in the unit disk and intersects with the unit circle at more than n points, then it coincides with the (closed) unit dissk. An analogue of this…

Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava recently solved the Kadison-Singer problem by showing that if u_1, ..., u_m are column vectors in C^d such that \sum u_iu_i^* = I, then a set of indices S \subseteq {1, ..., m} can be chosen so that \sum_{i…

In 1904, Dickson [5] stated a very important conjecture. Now people call it Dickson's conjecture. In 1958, Schinzel and Sierpinski [14] generalized Dickson's conjecture to the higher order integral polynomial case. However, they did not…

We present a conjecture on the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental representations of quantized affine algebras. This conjecture implies in particular that the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental…

In this paper we propose counterexamples to the Geometrization Conjecture and the Elliptization Conjecture.

It is known that the famous, intractible 1959 Kadison-Singer problem in $C^{*}$-algebras is equivalent to fundamental unsolved problems in a dozen areas of research in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and Engineering. The recent…

We prove a conjecture of Zagier about the inverse of a $(K-1)\times (K-1)$ matrix $A=A_{K}$ using elementary methods. This formula allows one to express the the product of single zeta values $\zeta(2r)\zeta(2K+1-2r)$, $1\leq r\leq K-1$, in…

The von Neumann-Halperin method of alternating projections converges strongly to the projection of a given point onto the intersection of finitely many closed affine subspaces. We propose acceleration schemes making use of two ideas:…

We prove two conjectures in this paper. The first conjecture is by Lund, Pham and Thu: Given a Borel set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\dim A\in (k,k+1]$ for some $k\in\{1,\dots,n-1\}$. For $0<s<k$, we have \[ \text{dim}(\{y\in…

Auslander-Reiten conjecture, which says that an Artin algebra does not have any non-projective generator with vanishing self-extensions in all positive degrees, is shown to be invariant under certain singular equivalences induced by adjoint…

In 1955 Kadison \cite{14} asked whether the analogue of the classical Burnside's theorem of the Linear Algebra holds in the infinite dimensional case. We use reproducing kernels method to solve the Kadison question. Namely, we prove that…

In a recent work, R. Pandharipande, J. P. Solomon and the second author have initiated a study of the intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with boundary. They conjectured that the generating series of the intersection…

We construct two Frechet algebras admitting countably many mutually inequivalent Frechet algebra topologies. The second example is a modification of the maiden (and first) example of a non-Banach Frechet algebra with two inequivalent…

In studying Nakayama's 1958 conjecture on rings of infinite dominant dimension, Auslander and Reiten proposed the following generalization: Let Lambda be an Artin algebra and M a Lambda-generator such that Ext^i_Lambda(M,M)=0 for all i \geq…

We verify a conjecture of Etingof and Ostrik, stating that an algebra object in a finite tensor category is exact if and only if it is a finite direct product of simple algebras. Towards that end, we introduce an analogue of the Jacobson…

It is shown that the $n$-dimensional Jacobian conjecture over algebraic number fields may be considered as an existence problem of integral points on affine curves. More specially, if the Jacobian conjecture over $\mathbb{C}$ is false, then…

In this paper we use computational methods to disprove a conjecture by Alaoglu and Erd\H{o}s regarding the superabundant numbers.

In 2008, Schmidt and Tuller stated a conjecture concerning optimal packing and covering of integers by translates of a given three-point set. In this note, we confirm their conjecture and relate it to several other problems in…

We establish the exact overlaps conjecture for iterated functions systems on the real line with algebraic contractions and arbitrary translations.
