A computer-assisted proof of Sendov’s conjecture that each zero a of p has a critical point within distance one is presented and a strict master error theorem proves the reverse inequality.
Fraenkel's conjecture asserts that a partition of the integers into at least three Beatty sequences with distinct moduli has the binary densities $1,2,4,\ldots,2^{m-1}$, normalized by $2^m-1$. We prove the conjecture through a dimension-free intermediate statement: every such partition contains a component of density a...
Let $p$ be a prime. We prove that every compatible branch datum of degree $p$ over the sphere is realizable by a connected branched cover. The three-point case is constructed in residue characteristic $p$. Henrio's moment theorem supplies the distinct-point moment solutions from which we construct a special primitive t...
We prove Krzy\.z's conjecture for the sixth coefficient. Every holomorphic function $f(z)=\sum a_kz^k$ from the unit disk to the punctured disk satisfies $|a_6| \le 2/e$. Equality holds precisely for rotations of $\exp(-(1-z^6)/(1+z^6))$. Every extremal has a Herglotz representation with at most six atoms. By the reduc...
Makeev [2] stated that every finite Borel measure in $\mathbb R^d$ assigning zero mass to hyperplanes can be cut by $d$ mutually orthogonal hyperplanes so that every pair divides the measure into four equal parts, and outlined a proof strategy, but the key steps were left incomplete. We give a direct and elementary pro...
We prove an $\Omega(n^2)$ lower bound on the determinantal complexity of the power sum polynomial $\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^n$ over the field of complex numbers. A similar result was claimed in a recent paper of Sheshadri (arXiv:2606.13628), via an AI-assisted and AI-written proof. Assuming its correctness, this was the first...
Let $p$ be a complex polynomial of degree $n\ge2$, and let $\sigma_2(p)$ be the root mean square distance of its zeros from their centroid, including multiplicities. We prove that every zero of $p$ lies within distance $\sigma_2(p)$ of a critical point. This proves Borcea's quadratic conjecture and, in particular, give...
