We prove Haynes' version of the Duffin--Schaeffer conjecture for the $p$-adic numbers. In addition, we prove several results about an associated related but false conjecture, related to $p$-adic approximation in the spirit of Jarn\'ik and…

We define the basic pluripotential-theoretic operations in terms of the transcendental theory of non-Archimedean metrics introduced in \cite{DXZ23}. In particular, we establish that the analogue of Boucksom--Jonsson's envelope conjecture…

We prove a fixed point theorem that combines the contraction mapping principle and some Knaster-Tarski-like theorem. As a consequence we obtain an existence theorem to initial value problem for ordinary differential equation with…

In the paper we formulate and verify a difference counterpart of the Macdonald-Mehta conjecture and its generalization for the Macdonald polynomials. Namely, we determine the Fourier transforms of the polynomials multiplied by the Gaussian,…

Let $a,b$ and $n$ be positive integers with $a>b$. In this note, we prove that $$(2bn+1)(2bn+3){2bn \choose bn}\bigg|3(a-b)(3a-b){2an \choose an}{an\choose bn}.$$ This confirms a recent conjecture of Amdeberhan and Moll.

The Besse's conjecture was posted on the well-known book Einstein manifolds by Arthur L. Besse, which describes the critical point of Hilbert-Einstein functional with constraint of unit volume and constant scalar curvature. In this article,…

The aim of this work is to extend and prove the Onsager conjecture for a class of conservation laws that possess generalized entropy. One of the main findings of this work is the "universality" of the Onsager exponent, $\alpha > 1/3$,…

We conjecture two combinatorial interpretations for the symmetric function $\Delta_{e_k} e_n$, where $\Delta_f$ is an eigenoperator for the modified Macdonald polynomials defined by Bergeron, Garsia, Haiman, and Tesler. Both interpretations…

We prove that for a positive integer $c$ and any given $\varepsilon$, $0<\varepsilon<1$, the number $N(c)$ of equations $c=a+b$, $a<b$, with positive coprime integers $a$ and $b$, which satisfy the inequality $$c <…

A theorem of L. Caffarelli implies the existence of a map pushing forward a source Gaussian measure to a target measure which is more log-concave than the source one, which contracts Euclidean distance (in fact, Caffarelli showed that the…

Integration at a point is a new kind of integration derived from integration over an interval in infinitesimal and infinity domains which are spaces larger than the reals. Consider a continuous monotonic divergent function that is…

In 1979, B. Shiffman conjectured that if f is an algebraically nondegenerate holomorphic map of C into P^n and D_1,...,D_q are hypersurfaces in P^n in general position, then the sum of the defects is at most n+1. This conjecture was proved…

New upper bounds on the relative entropy are derived as a function of the total variation distance. One bound refines an inequality by Verd\'{u} for general probability measures. A second bound improves the tightness of an inequality by…
