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.

A proof of the Grünbaum conjecture

Bruce L. Chalmers, Grzegorz Lewicki (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let V be an n-dimensional real Banach space and let λ(V) denote its absolute projection constant. For any N ∈ N with N ≥ n define λ N = s u p λ ( V ) : d i m ( V ) = n , V l ( N ) , λₙ = supλ(V): dim(V) = n. A well-known Grünbaum conjecture [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 95 (1960)] says that λ₂ = 4/3. König and Tomczak-Jaegermann [J. Funct. Anal. 119 (1994)] made an attempt to prove this conjecture. Unfortunately, their Proposition 3.1, used in the proof, is incorrect. In this paper a complete proof of the Grünbaum conjecture is presented ...

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).

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.

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...

On the index of length four minimal zero-sum sequences

Caixia Shen, Li-meng Xia, Yuanlin Li (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be a finite cyclic group. Every sequence S over G can be written in the form S = ( n g ) · . . . · ( n l g ) where g ∈ G and n , . . . , n l i [ 1 , o r d ( g ) ] , and the index ind(S) is defined to be the minimum of ( n + + n l ) / o r d ( g ) over all possible g ∈ G such that ⟨g⟩ = G. A conjecture says that every minimal zero-sum sequence of length 4 over a finite cyclic group G with gcd(|G|,6) = 1 has index 1. This conjecture was confirmed recently for the case when |G| is a product of at most two prime powers. However, the general case is still open. In this paper,...

Fraïssé structures and a conjecture of Furstenberg

Dana Bartošová, Andy Zucker (2019)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We study problems concerning the Samuel compactification of the automorphism group of a countable first-order structure. A key motivating question is a problem of Furstenberg and a counter-conjecture by Pestov regarding the difference between S ( G ) , the Samuel compactification, and E ( M ( G ) ) , the enveloping semigroup of the universal minimal flow. We resolve Furstenberg’s problem for several automorphism groups and give a detailed study in the case of G = S , leading us to define and investigate several...

Results related to Huppert’s ρ - σ conjecture

Xia Xu, Yong Yang (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

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.

The strength of the projective Martin conjecture

C. T. Chong, Wei Wang, Liang Yu (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that Martin’s conjecture on Π¹₁ functions uniformly T -order preserving on a cone implies Π¹₁ Turing Determinacy over ZF + DC. In addition, it is also proved that for n ≥ 0, this conjecture for uniformly degree invariant Π ¹ 2 n + 1 functions is equivalent over ZFC to Σ ¹ 2 n + 2 -Axiom of Determinacy. As a corollary, the consistency of the conjecture for uniformly degree invariant Π¹₁ functions implies the consistency of the existence of a Woodin cardinal.

Order of the smallest counterexample to Gallai's conjecture

Fuyuan Chen (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In 1966, Gallai conjectured that all the longest paths of a connected graph have a common vertex. Zamfirescu conjectured that the smallest counterexample to Gallai’s conjecture is a graph on 12 vertices. We prove that Gallai’s conjecture is true for every connected graph G with α ' ( G ) 5 , which implies that Zamfirescu’s conjecture is true.

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...

Homotopy invariance of higher signatures and 3 -manifold groups

Michel Matthey, Hervé Oyono-Oyono, Wolfgang Pitsch (2008)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

For closed oriented manifolds, we establish oriented homotopy invariance of higher signatures that come from the fundamental group of a large class of orientable 3 -manifolds, including the “piecewise geometric” ones in the sense of Thurston. In particular, this class, that will be carefully described, is the class of all orientable 3 -manifolds if the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture is true. In fact, for this type of groups, we show that the Baum-Connes Conjecture With Coefficients...

Semifields and a theorem of Abhyankar

Vítězslav Kala (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Abhyankar proved that every field of finite transcendence degree over or over a finite field is a homomorphic image of a subring of the ring of polynomials [ T 1 , , T n ] (for some n depending on the field). We conjecture that his result cannot be substantially strengthened and show that our conjecture implies a well-known conjecture on the additive idempotence of semifields that are finitely generated as semirings.

A proof of the Livingston conjecture for the fourth and the fifth coefficient of concave univalent functions

Karl-Joachim Wirths (2004)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let D denote the open unit disc and f:D → ℂ̅ be meromorphic and injective in D. We further assume that f has a simple pole at the point p ∈ (0,1) and an expansion f ( z ) = z + n = 2 a ( f ) z , |z| < p. In particular, we consider f that map D onto a domain whose complement with respect to ℂ̅ is convex. Because of the shape of f(D) these functions will be called concave univalent functions with pole p and the family of these functions is denoted by Co(p). It is proved that for p ∈ (0,1) the domain of variability...

A note on minimal zero-sum sequences over ℤ

Papa A. Sissokho (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

A zero-sum sequence over ℤ is a sequence with terms in ℤ that sum to 0. It is called minimal if it does not contain a proper zero-sum subsequence. Consider a minimal zero-sum sequence over ℤ with positive terms a , . . . , a h and negative terms b , . . . , b k . We prove that h ≤ ⌊σ⁺/k⌋ and k ≤ ⌊σ⁺/h⌋, where σ = i = 1 h a i = - j = 1 k b j . These bounds are tight and improve upon previous results. We also show a natural partial order structure on the collection of all minimal zero-sum sequences over the set i∈ ℤ : -n ≤ i ≤ n for any positive...

A basis of ℤₘ, II

Min Tang, Yong-Gao Chen (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a set A ⊂ ℕ let σ A ( n ) denote the number of ordered pairs (a,a’) ∈ A × A such that a + a’ = n. Erdős and Turán conjectured that for any asymptotic basis A of ℕ, σ A ( n ) is unbounded. We show that the analogue of the Erdős-Turán conjecture does not hold in the abelian group (ℤₘ,+), namely, for any natural number m, there exists a set A ⊆ ℤₘ such that A + A = ℤₘ and σ A ( n ̅ ) 5120 for all n̅ ∈ ℤₘ.

Non-Wieferich primes in number fields and a b c -conjecture

Srinivas Kotyada, Subramani Muthukrishnan (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let K / be an algebraic number field of class number one and let 𝒪 K be its ring of integers. We show that there are infinitely many non-Wieferich primes with respect to certain units in 𝒪 K under the assumption of the a b c -conjecture for number fields.

On some properties of three-dimensional minimal sets in 4

Tien Duc Luu (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We prove in this paper the Hölder regularity of Almgren minimal sets of dimension 3 in 4 around a 𝕐 -point and the existence of a point of particular type of a Mumford-Shah minimal set in 4 , which is very close to a 𝕋 . This will give a local description of minimal sets of dimension 3 in 4 around a singular point and a property of Mumford-Shah minimal sets in 4 .

The Cohen-Lenstra heuristics, moments and p j -ranks of some groups

Christophe Delaunay, Frédéric Jouhet (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

This article deals with the coherence of the model given by the Cohen-Lenstra heuristic philosophy for class groups and also for their generalizations to Tate-Shafarevich groups. More precisely, our first goal is to extend a previous result due to É. Fouvry and J. Klüners which proves that a conjecture provided by the Cohen-Lenstra philosophy implies another such conjecture. As a consequence of our work, we can deduce, for example, a conjecture for the probability laws of p j -ranks of...
