Near-Gaussian counterexamples to the Ball-Nayar-Tkocz entropy concavity conjecture

The Ball-Nayar-Tkocz conjecture asserts that, for independent real random variables $X,Y$ with a common log-concave density, the function $t\mapsto h(\sqrt tX+\sqrt{1-t}Y)$ is concave on $[0,1]$. Gaussian distributions have this property. We construct strongly log-concave counterexamples arbitrarily close to the Gaussi...

Counterexamples to the Mao-Wu-Xu spectral conjecture and a three-scale boundary for spherical random graphs

Random geometric graph detection asks whether a graph generated from $n$ independent uniform points on $S^{d-1}$, with edge probabilities depending on inner products, can be distinguished from an Erdos-Renyi graph of the same edge density using only its adjacency matrix. Mao, Wu, and Xu conjectured that the cubic trace...

A proof of the Athanasiadis-Chapoton ordinal-sum conjecture

Given a finite preorder $\tau$, we study how its order relation determines the $h^*$-polynomial of the associated polar preorder polytope. Let $\mathcal R_{\tau}^{\vee}$ be the convex hull of the negative standard basis vectors and the indicator vectors of nonempty order ideals, and write $h_\tau^*(t)=h^*(\mathcal R_{\...
