Anderson's paving conjectures are known to be equivalent to the Kadison-Singer problem. We prove some new equivalences of Anderson's conjectures that require the paving of smaller sets of matrices. We prove that if the strictly upper…

We prove some new equivalences of the paving conjecture and obtain some estimates on the paving constants. In addition we give a new family of counterexamples to one of the Akemann-Anderson conjectures.

We present a formulation of the Collatz conjecture that is potentially more amenable to modeling and analysis by automated termination checking tools.

We utilize the obstruction theory of Galewski-Matumoto-Stern to derive equivalent formulations of the Triangulation Conjecture. For example, every closed topological manifold M^n with n > 4 can be simplicially triangulated if and only if…

In this paper a new conjecture equivalent to Collatz conjecture is presented. In particural, showing that (all) the solution(s) of newly introduced iterative functional equation(s) have a given property is equivalent to prove Collatz…

The classical honeycomb conjecture asserts that any partition of the plane into regions of equal area has perimeter at least that of the regular hexagonal honeycomb tiling. Pappus discusses this problem in his preface to Book V. This paper…

An alternative computational approach to the Collatz (3n+1) conjecture is presented that may be theoretically capable of confirming the conjecture.

The conjectures of Manin and Peyre are confirmed for a certain threefold.

We prove Poincare's Conjecture that every simply connected, closed three-manifold is topologically equivalent to the three-sphere. The proof is founded on the algebraic formulation discovered by J. Stallings.

In this paper we announce a conjecture concerning enumeration of n-times persymmetric matrices over F_2 by rank. To justify our statement we remark that the formulas obtained are valid for n equal to one, two and three.

In this short paper we will show, via elementary arguments, the equivalence of the Twin Prime Conjecture to a problem which might be simpler to prove. Some conclusions are drawn, and it is shown that proving the Twin Prime Conjecture is…

This paper gives an algebraic conjecture which is shown to be equivalent to Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture for closed, orientable 3-manifolds. It generalizes the Stallings-Jaco theorem which established a similar result for the…

We prove that the Dimension Conjecture implies the Jacobi Bound Conjecture.

The McCarty Conjecture states that any McCarty Matrix (an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with positive integer entries and each of the $2n$ row and column sums equal to $n$), can be additively decomposed into two other matrices, $B$ and $C$, such…

Let $P$ and $Q$ be simple polygons with $n$ vertices each. We wish to compute triangulations of $P$ and $Q$ that are combinatorially equivalent, if they exist. We consider two versions of the problem: if a triangulation of $P$ is given, we…

A proof of the continuous martingale convergence theorem is provided. It relies on a classical martingale inequality and the almost sure convergence of a uniformly bounded non-negative super-martingale, after a truncation argument.

We prove the equivalence of Kantor's Conjecture and the Sticky Matroid Conjecture due to Poljak und Turz\'ik.

The intersection matrix of a simplicial complex has entries equal to the rank of the intersection of its facets. In [1] the authors prove the intersection matrix is enough to determine a triangulation of a surface up to isomorphism. In this…

Using a new technique, we prove a rich family of special cases of the matroid intersection conjecture. Roughly, we prove the conjecture for pairs of tame matroids which have a common decomposition by 2-separations into finite parts.

We show that the Friedlander-Mazur conjecture holds for a complex smooth projective variety X of dimension three implies the standard conjectures hold for X. This together with a result of Friedlander yields the equivalence of the two…
