Is Gardam's support-21 unit in $\mathbb{F}_2[P]$ (Promislow group) support-minimal?
Gardam [1] disproved the Kaplansky unit conjecture by exhibiting a nontrivial unit $\alpha$ of support size 21 in $\mathbb{F}_2[P]$, where $P = \langle a,b \mid b^{-1}a^2b = a^{-2},\ a^{-1}b^2a = b^{-...

The simplest case of Jacobian conjecture
So as you may know, the Jacobian conjecture turned out to be false for polynomials in three or more variables. It holds in one variable, but the simplest non trivial case is that of two variables. Are ...

Bijection between left and right simple modules for noetherian rings
Let $R$ be a two-sided noetherian ring (not necessarily commutative).
Question: Is there a bijection between the simple left $R$- modules and the simple right $R$-modules?
One might ask further ...

Existence of matroids representable over $\Bbb{R}$ but not over the real algebraic numbers
There are examples of matroids which can be represented by real vectors but cannot be represented by rational vectors. One such example is the Perles matroid, which cannot be represented over $\mathbb{...

Equivalence of periodic Besov space and Zygmund spaces
Let $k$ be a non-negative integer and $\gamma \in (0,1]$, so that for $s = k+\gamma$, the Zygmund space is
$$C^s(\mathbb T^d):= C^{k,\gamma}(\mathbb T^d).$$
The norm on this space is any one which is ...

Stability of bilinear constants in discrete-time slabs for Navier-Stokes critical spaces
I am investigating a split-operator framework for the 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes equations under the decomposition $u = U_L + v$, where $u_{0,L} \in H^2 \cap L^3$ and the critical perturbation ...

Dimension of the stabilizer of a generic curve in the moduli space of stable maps
Let $X$ be a homogeneous space $G/P$ and consider the moduli space $\overline{M}_{0,3}(X,d)$ for an arbitrary degree $d$. Let $f$ be a generic curve of degree $d$. We have one trivial bound on the ...

Estimate for the difference between the exact Neumann heat kernel and its tangent-plane image approximation
I am studying a Monte Carlo method for the heat equation with Neumann boundary conditions.
For a half-space, the Neumann heat kernel is given exactly by the method of images,
$$G_N(x,y,t)
=G(x-y,t)+G(...

The Serre spectral sequence of a $2$-type with trivial $k$-invariant
Let $L$ be a CW complex with $\pi_n(L) = 0$ for $n\geq3$ and vanishing $k$-invariant. Write $\pi$ for the fundamental group and $A$ for $\pi_2(L)$ as a $\mathbb{Z}\pi$-module. The vanishing $k$-...

Consequences of the disproof of the Jacobian conjecture on mathematical physics?
Sorry if this is not the correct place to ask this question, or if this is somewhat vague, but it should be well-known by now that the Jacobian Conjecture has been disproven with a surprisingly simple ...

A Jacobian-neutral birational construction for Keller maps, with noninjective examples of every generic degree $d\ge 3$ — is this known? [closed]
Yesterday (Jul 19) Levent Alpoge announced a polynomial map $F:\mathbb C^3\to\mathbb C^3$ with $\det DF\equiv-2$ and a fiber containing three distinct points: a noninjective Keller map in dimension $3$...

Galois structure of the new counterexample to the Jacobian conjecture: an explicit cubic model with $S_3$ monodromy — is this known? [closed]
Background
Yesterday (July 19, 2026) Levent Alpöge tweeted (source) the polynomial map $F=(a,b,c):\mathbb{C}^3\to\mathbb{C}^3$,
\begin{align*}
a&=(1+xy)^3z+y^2(1+xy)(4+3xy),\\
b&=y+3x(1+xy)^2z+...
