In this paper, we prove the Soul Conjecture in Alexandrov geometry in dimension $4$, i.e. if $X$ is a complete non-compact $4$-dimensional Alexandrov space of non-negative curvature and positive curvature around one point, then a soul of…

Dong and Wang in [Theor. Comput. Sci. 771 (2019) 93--98] conjectured that the resulting graph of the $n$-dimensional folded hypercube $FQ_n$ by deleting any perfect matching is isomorphic to the hypercube $Q_n$. In this paper, we show that…

J.-P. Roudneff conjectured in 1991 that every arrangement of $n \ge 2d+1\ge 5$ pseudohyperplanes in the real projective space $\mathbb{P}^d$ has at most $\sum_{i=0}^{d-2} \binom{n-1}{i}$ complete cells (i.e., cells bounded by each…

A subset $X$ of an abelian $G$ is said to be {\em complete} if every element of the subgroup generated by $X$ can be expressed as a nonempty sum of distinct elements from $X$. Let $A\subset \Z_n$ be such that all the elements of $A$ are…

An n-gon is defined as a sequence \P=(V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of n points on the plane. An n-gon \P is said to be convex if the boundary of the convex hull of the set {V_0,...,V_{n-1}} of the vertices of \P coincides with the union of the edges…

Hadwiger's covering conjecture is that every $n$-dimensional convex body can be covered by at most $2^n$ of its smaller positive homothetic copies, with $2^n$ copies required only for affine images of $n$-cube. Convex hull of a ball and an…

It was once conjectured that if $A$ is a uniform algebra on its maximal ideal space $X$, and if each point of $X$ is a peak point for $A$, then $A = C(X)$. This peak-point conjecture was disproved by Brian Cole in 1968. Here we establish a…

A problem in zero-sum theory is to determine all pairs $(k,n)$ for which every minimal zero-sum sequence of length $k$ modulo $n$ has index $1$. While all other cases have been solved more than a decade ago, the case when $k$ equals $4$ and…

Let $\sigma(x)$ be the sum of the divisors of $x$. If $N$ is odd and $\sigma(N) = 2N$, then the odd perfect number $N$ is said to be given in Eulerian form if $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ where $q$ is prime with $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod 4$ and…

The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…

In the year 1982, John Chollet conjectured that, for any pair of $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices $A,B$, $per(A)\cdot per(B)\geq per(A\circ B)$, where $A\circ B$ is the Hardamard product of $A$ and $B$. This conjecture was proved…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for the top dimensional cohomology group with integer coefficients of any $q$-complete complex manifold $X$ with $q<\dim X$. This holds in particular for the complement $X=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n\setminus A$…

The absolute sets of local systems on a smooth complex algebraic variety are the subject of a conjecture of N. Budur and B. Wang based on an analogy with special subvarieties of Shimura varieties. An absolute set should be the…

A two-dimensional $n$-correct set is a set of nodes admitting unique bivariate interpolation with polynomials of total degree at most ~$n$. We are interested in correct sets with the property that all fundamental polynomials are products of…

A convex polygon is defined as a sequence (V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of points on a plane such that the union of the edges [V_0,V_1],..., [V_{n-2},V_{n-1}], [V_{n-1},V_0] coincides with the boundary of the convex hull of the set of vertices…

In the paper, we prove that in an arbitrary Delone set $X$ in $3D$ space, the subset $X_6$ of all points from $X$ at which local groups have axes of the order not greater than 6 is also a Delone set. Here, under the local group at point…

This work is, in part, a generalization of the article by A.A. Bruen ,T.C Bruen and J.M.McQuillan on Desargues Theorem in arXiv:2007.09175[mathCO]July 17,2020. We prove the extension of Desargues theorem in all dimensions, using 4 different…

Let $P_{n}$ be a set of $n$ points, including the origin, in the unit square $U = [0,1]^2$. We consider the problem of constructing $n$ axis-parallel and mutually disjoint rectangles inside $U$ such that the bottom-left corner of each…

A set $G \subseteq \omega$ is $n$-generic for a positive integer $n$ if and only if every $\Sigma^0_n$ formula of $G$ is decided by a finite initial segment of $G$ in the sense of Cohen forcing. It is shown here that every $n$-generic set…

The big-line-big-clique conjecture states that for all $k,\ell\geq2$ there is an integer $n$ such that every finite set of at least $n$ points in the plane contains $\ell$ collinear points or $k$ pairwise visible points. We show that this…
