Cox's well-known theorem justifying the use of probability is shown not to hold in finite domains. The counterexample also suggests that Cox's assumptions are insufficient to prove the result even in infinite domains. The same…

In this note we provide some counterexamples for the conjectures of finite simple groups, one of the conjectures said "all finite simple groups $G$ can be determined using their orders $|G|$ and the number of elements of order $p$, where…

Duffin and Schaeffer provided a famous counterexample to show that Khintchine's theorem fails without monotonicity assumption. Given any monotonically decreasing approximation function with divergent series, we construct…

We show that the well-partial orderedness of the finite downwards closed subsets of $\mathbb{N}^k$ ,ordered by inclusion, is equivalent to the well-foundedness of the ordinal $\omega^{\omega^\omega}$. This was conjectured to be the case by…

It was conjectured that the augmentation ideal of a dihedral quandle of even order $n>2$ satisfies $|\Delta^k(\text{R}_n)/\Delta^{k+1}(\text{R}_{n})|=n$ for all $k\geq 2$. In this article we provide a counterexample against this conjecture.

We prove the Gross order of vanishing conjecture in special cases where the vanishing order of the character in question can be arbitrarily large. In almost all previously known cases the vanishing order is zero or one. One major ingredient…

We present variants of Goodstein's theorem that are equivalent to arithmetical comprehension and to arithmetical transfinite recursion, respectively, over a weak base theory. These variants differ from the usual Goodstein theorem in that…

A conjecture of I. Krasikov is proved. Several discrete analogues of classical polynomial inequalities are derived, along with results which allow extensions to a class of transcendental entire functions in the Laguerre-P\'olya class.

We give an example of a convex, finite and lower semicontinuous function whose subdifferential is everywhere empty. This is possible since the function is defined on an incomplete normed space. The function serves as a universal…
