Holonomy groups of flat manifolds with the R property

Rafał Lutowski, Andrzej Szczepański (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let M be a flat manifold. We say that M has the R property if the Reidemeister number R(f) is infinite for every homeomorphism f: M → M. We investigate relations between the holonomy representation ρ of M and the R property. When the holonomy group of M is solvable we show that if ρ has a unique ℝ-irreducible subrepresentation of odd degree then M has the R property. This result is related to Conjecture 4.8 in [K. Dekimpe et al., Topol. Methods Nonlinear Anal. 34 (2009)].

Results related to Huppert’s ρ - σ conjecture

Xia Xu, Yong Yang (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We improve a few results related to Huppert’s ρ - σ conjecture. We also generalize a result about the covering number of character degrees to arbitrary finite groups.

On the generalized vanishing conjecture

Zhenzhen Feng, Xiaosong Sun (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We show that the GVC (generalized vanishing conjecture) holds for the differential operator Λ = ( x - Φ ( y ) ) y and all polynomials P ( x , y ) , where Φ ( t ) is any polynomial over the base field. The GVC arose from the study of the Jacobian conjecture.

On a number theoretic conjecture on positive integral points in a 5-dimensional tetrahedron and a sharp estimate of the Dickman–De Bruijn function

Ke-Pao Lin, Xue Luo, Stephen S.-T. Yau, Huaiqing Zuo (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

It is well known that getting the estimate of integral points in right-angled simplices is equivalent to getting the estimate of Dickman-De Bruijn function ψ ( x , y ) which is the number of positive integers x and free of prime factors > y . Motivating from the Yau Geometry Conjecture, the third author formulated the Number Theoretic Conjecture which gives a sharp polynomial upper estimate that counts the number of positive integral points in n-dimensional ( n 3 ) real right-angled simplices. In this...

A geometric construction for spectrally arbitrary sign pattern matrices and the 2 n -conjecture

Dipak Jadhav, Rajendra Deore (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We develop a geometric method for studying the spectral arbitrariness of a given sign pattern matrix. The method also provides a computational way of computing matrix realizations for a given characteristic polynomial. We also provide a partial answer to 2 n -conjecture. We determine that the 2 n -conjecture holds for the class of spectrally arbitrary patterns that have a column or row with at least n - 1 nonzero entries.

Characterization of the alternating groups by their order and one conjugacy class length

Alireza Khalili Asboei, Reza Mohammadyari (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let G be a finite group, and let N ( G ) be the set of conjugacy class sizes of G . By Thompson’s conjecture, if L is a finite non-abelian simple group, G is a finite group with a trivial center, and N ( G ) = N ( L ) , then L and G are isomorphic. Recently, Chen et al. contributed interestingly to Thompson’s conjecture under a weak condition. They only used the group order and one or two special conjugacy class sizes of simple groups and characterized successfully sporadic simple groups (see Li’s PhD dissertation)....

Exotic Deformations of Calabi-Yau Manifolds

We introduce Quantum Inner State manifolds (QIS manifolds) as (compact) 2 n -dimensional symplectic manifolds ( M , κ ) endowed with a κ -tamed almost complex structure J and with a nowhere vanishing and normalized section ϵ of the bundle Λ J n , 0 ( M ) satisfying the condition ¯ J ϵ = 0 . We study the moduli space 𝔐 of QIS deformations of a given Calabi-Yau manifold, computing its tangent space...

Witten's Conjecture for many four-manifolds of simple type

Paul M. N. Feehan, Thomas G. Leness (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove that Witten’s Conjecture [40] on the relationship between the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten series for a four-manifold of Seiberg-Witten simple type with b 1 = 0 and odd b 2 + 3 follows from our ( 3 ) -monopole cobordism formula [6] when the four-manifold has c 1 2 χ h - 3 or is abundant.

The generalized Hodge and Bloch conjectures are equivalent for general complete intersections

Claire Voisin (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove that Bloch’s conjecture is true for surfaces with p g = 0 obtained as 0 -sets X σ of a section σ of a very ample vector bundle on a variety X with “trivial” Chow groups. We get a similar result in presence of a finite group action, showing that if a projector of the group acts as 0 on holomorphic 2 -forms of  X σ , then it acts as 0 on  0 -cycles of degree 0 of  X σ . In higher dimension, we also prove a similar but conditional result showing that the generalized Hodge conjecture for general X σ ...

On the Davenport constant and group algebras

Daniel Smertnig (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a finite abelian group G and a splitting field K of G, let (G,K) denote the largest integer l ∈ ℕ for which there is a sequence S = g · . . . · g l over G such that ( X g - a ) · . . . · ( X g l - a l ) 0 K [ G ] for all a , . . . , a l K × . If (G) denotes the Davenport constant of G, then there is the straightforward inequality (G) - 1 ≤ (G,K). Equality holds for a variety of groups, and a conjecture of W. Gao et al. states that equality holds for all groups. We offer further groups for which equality holds, but we also give the first examples of groups G for...

On the Brocard-Ramanujan problem and generalizations

Andrzej Dąbrowski (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let p i denote the ith prime. We conjecture that there are precisely 28 solutions to the equation n ² - 1 = p α p k α k in positive integers n and α₁,..., α k . This conjecture implies an explicit description of the set of solutions to the Brocard-Ramanujan equation. We also propose another variant of the Brocard-Ramanujan problem: describe the set of solutions in non-negative integers of the equation n! + A = x₁²+x₂²+x₃² (A fixed).

On a conjecture of Dekking : The sum of digits of even numbers

Iurie Boreico, Daniel El-Baz, Thomas Stoll (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let q 2 and denote by s q the sum-of-digits function in base q . For j = 0 , 1 , , q - 1 consider # { 0 n < N : s q ( 2 n ) j ( mod q ) } . In 1983, F. M. Dekking conjectured that this quantity is greater than N / q and, respectively, less than N / q for infinitely many N , thereby claiming an absence of a drift (or Newman) phenomenon. In this paper we prove his conjecture.

Recent progress on the Jacobian Conjecture

Michiel de Bondt, Arno van den Essen (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We describe some recent developments concerning the Jacobian Conjecture (JC). First we describe Drużkowski’s result in [6] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for Drużkowski mappings of the form x + ( A x ) * 3 with A² = 0. Then we describe the authors’ result of [2] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for so-called gradient mappings, i.e. mappings of the form x - ∇f, with f k [ n ] homogeneous of degree 4. Using this result we explain Zhao’s reformulation of the JC which asserts the...

Zhiqi Chen, Jifu Li, Ming Ding (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

F -manifold algebras are focused on the algebraic properties of the tangent sheaf of F -manifolds. The local classification of 3-dimensional F -manifolds has been given in A. Basalaev, C. Hertling (2021). We study the classification of 3-dimensional F -manifold algebras over the complex field .

Foliated structure of the Kuranishi space and isomorphisms of deformation families of compact complex manifolds

Laurent Meersseman (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Consider the following uniformization problem. Take two holomorphic (parametrized by some analytic set defined on a neighborhood of 0 in p , for some p > 0 ) or differentiable (parametrized by an open neighborhood of 0 in p , for some p > 0 ) deformation families of compact complex manifolds. Assume they are pointwise isomorphic, that is for each point t of the parameter space, the fiber over t of the first family is biholomorphic to the fiber over t of the second family. Then, under which conditions...

A variation of Thompson's conjecture for the symmetric groups

Mahdi Abedei, Ali Iranmanesh, Farrokh Shirjian (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let G be a finite group and let N ( G ) denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of G . Thompson’s conjecture states that if G is a centerless group and S is a non-abelian simple group satisfying N ( G ) = N ( S ) , then G S . In this paper, we investigate a variation of this conjecture for some symmetric groups under a weaker assumption. In particular, it is shown that G Sym ( p + 1 ) if and only if | G | = ( p + 1 ) ! and G has a special conjugacy class of size ( p + 1 ) ! / p , where p > 5 is a prime number. Consequently, if G is a centerless group with N ( G ) = N ( Sym ( p + 1 ) ) , then...

A note on the cohomology ring of the oriented Grassmann manifolds G ˜ n , 4

Tomáš Rusin (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We use known results on the characteristic rank of the canonical 4 –plane bundle over the oriented Grassmann manifold G ˜ n , 4 to compute the generators of the 2 –cohomology groups H j ( G ˜ n , 4 ) for n = 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 . Drawing from the similarities of these examples with the general description of the cohomology rings of G ˜ n , 3 we conjecture some predictions.
