A famous theorem of Kirkman says that there exists a Steiner triple system of order $n$ if and only if $n\equiv 1,3\mod{6}$. In 1973, Erd\H{o}s conjectured that one can find so-called `sparse' Steiner triple systems. Roughly speaking, the…

Legendre's conjecture states that there is a prime number between n^2 and (n+1)^2 for every positive integer n. We consider the following question : for all integer n>1 and a fixed integer k<=n does there exist a prime number such that kn <…

We take an approach toward counting the number of n for which the curves E_n: y^2=x^3-n^2x have 2-Selmer groups of a given size. This question was also discussed in a pair of Invent. Math. papers by Roger Heath-Brown. We discuss the…

Famous Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that for each positive integer $q\geq2$, there exists positive integer $1\leq a <q$, coprime to $q$, such that if you expand a fraction $a/q$ into a continued fraction $a/q=[a_1,\ldots,a_n]$, all of…

A conjecture raised in 1990 by C. Huneke predicts that, for a $d$-dimensional Noetherian local ring $R$, local cohomology modules of finitely generated $R$-modules have finitely many associated primes. Although counterexamples do exist, the…

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 that the k-medial axis of an arbitrary closed set in Rn is n-k+1-rectifiable (and hence of dimension at most n-k+1). This result gives a first stratification for medial axis of any closed set, which has been widely studied and used…

Let $\lambda_\mathbb{K}(m)$ denote the maximal absolute projection constant over the subspaces of dimension $m$. Apart from the trivial case for $ m=1$, the only known value of $\lambda_\mathbb{K}(m)$ is for $ m=2$ and…

In 1974, Vegh proved that if $k$ is a prime and $m$ a positive integer, there is an $m$ term permutation chain of $k$th power residue for infinitely many primes [E.Vegh, $k$th power residue chains, J.Number Theory, 9(1977), 179-181]. In…

We describe the ring structure of the rational cohomology of the Torelli groups of the manifolds $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ in a stable range, for $2n \geq 6$. Some of our results are also valid for $2n=2$, where they are closely related to…

We show that for proving the Stanley conjecture, it is sufficient to consider a very special class of monomial ideals. These ideals (or rather their lcm lattices) are in bijection with the simplicial spanning trees of skeletons of a…

We confirm the AJ conjecture [Ga04] that relates the A-polynomial and the colored Jones polynomial for those hyperbolic knots satisfying certain conditions. In particular, we show that the conjecture holds true for some classes of…

We develop a recursive formula for counting the number of rectangulations of a square, i.e the number of combinatorially distinct tilings of a square by rectangles. Our formula specializes to give a formula counting generic rectangulations,…

Let $T_{\ell,k}(n)$ denote the number of $\ell$-regular $k$-tuple partitions of $n$. In a recent work, Nath, Saikia, and Sarma derived several families of congruences for $T_{\ell,k}(n)$, with particular emphasis on the cases $T_{2,3}(n)$…

Using the smallest eigenvalues of Hankel forms associated with a multidimensional moment problem, we establish a condition equivalent to the existence of a reproducing kernel. This result is a multivariate analogue of Berg, Chen,and…

We prove a stronger form of our previous result that Schinzel's Hypothesis holds for $100\%$ of $n$-tuples of integer polynomials satisfying the usual necessary conditions, where the primes represented by the polynomials are subject to…

We obtain estimates for Vinogradov's integral which for the first time approach those conjectured to be the best possible. Several applications of these new bounds are provided. In particular, the conjectured asymptotic formula in Waring's…

In 1947 Mills proved that there exists a constant $A$ such that $\lfloor A^{3^n} \rfloor$ is a prime for every positive integer $n$. Determining $A$ requires determining an effective Hoheisel type result on the primes in short intervals -…

A classical result in number theory is Dirichlet's theorem on the density of primes in an arithmetic progression. We prove a similar result for numbers with exactly k prime factors for k>1. Building upon a proof by E.M. Wright in 1954, we…

Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer. The $n$-th Ap\'{e}ry number is defined by $$ A_n:=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n+k}{k}^2\binom{n}{k}^2. $$ Z.-W. Sun ever investigated the congruence properties of Ap\'{e}ry numbers and posed some conjectures. For…
