48 results for Lehmer's Conjecture

We propose a new class of transforms that we call {\it Lehmer Transform} which is motivated by the {\it Lehmer mean function}. The proposed {\it Lehmer transform} decomposes a function of a sample into their constituting statistical moments. Theoretical properties of the proposed transform are presented. This transform…

New Lehmer constants computed for free groups, improving bounds.

problem Tackles Lehmer's problem on Mahler measures and Fuglede-Kadison determinants.
method Uses relations between Fuglede-Kadison determinants and random walks on Cayley graphs, and gluing formula for L2L^2-torsions.
result Computes new upper bound of 23\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} for Lehmer's constants of torsion-free groups with non-cyclic free subgroups.

Lehmer's question is equivalent to one about generalized growth rates of Lefschetz numbers of iterated pseudo-Anosov surface homeomorphisms. One need consider only homeomorphisms that arise as monodromies of fibered knots in lens spaces L(n,1), n>0. Lehmer's question for Perron polynomials is equivalent to one about ge…

In this paper we prove that there is a direct relationship between Salem numbers and translation lengths of hyperbolic elements of arithmetic hyperbolic groups that are determined by a quadratic form over a totally real number field. As an application we determine a sharp lower bound for the length of a closed geodesic…

This paper addresses a long standing open problem due to Lehmer in which the triple 2,3,7 plays a notable role. Lehmer's problem asks whether there is a gap between 1 and the next smallest algebraic integer with respect to Mahler measure. The question has been studied in a wide range of contexts including number theory…

method Definition of graph complexity using Laplacian matrix and Mahler measure, linking to Alexander polynomials and Lehmer's question.
result Complexity growth of signed graphs is related to the growth rate of Alexander polynomials.

Study on mapping classes of real rational surface automorphisms, focusing on reducible maps and pseudo-Anosov maps.

problem Investigating the mapping classes of real rational surface automorphisms and their restrictions.
method Analysis of reducible maps, determination of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes, and comparison with Penner's construction.
result Realized Lehmer's number as the stretch factor of a pseudo-Anosov map on a specific surface.

SmartDCA improves investment returns by adjusting purchases based on prices.

problem Inefficiency of Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) in volatile markets.
method Developed SmartDCA, a more efficient investment strategy that adjusts purchases based on price levels, and analyzed its performance using mathematical inequalities and mean definitions.
result SmartDCA outperforms DCA in long-term investments, with higher performance gains for higher power values of ρρ.

We reformulate Lehmer's question from 1933 and a question due to Schinzel and Zassenhaus from 1965 in terms of a comparison of the Mahler measures and the houses, respectively, of monic integer reciprocal and skew-reciprocal polynomials of the same degree. This entails that understanding the difference between orientat…

Lueck expressed the Gromov norm of a knot complement in terms of an infinite series that can be computed from a presentation of the fundamental group of the knot complement. In this note we show that Lueck's formula, applied to torus knots, yields surprising power series expansions for the logarithm function. This gene…

This paper presents a construction of fibered links (K,Σ)(K,Σ) out of chord diagrams $\sL$. Let ΓΓ be the incidence graph of $\sL$. Under certain conditions on $\sL$ the symmetrized Seifert matrix of (K,Σ)(K,Σ) equals the bilinear form of the simply-laced Coxeter system (W,S)(W,S) associated to ΓΓ; and the monodromy of $(K,Σ)…

The (torsion) complexity of a finite edge-weighted graph is defined to be the order of the torsion subgroup of the abelian group presented by its Laplacian matrix. When G is d-periodic (i.e., G has a free action of the rank-d free abelian group by graph automorphisms, with finite quotient) the Mahler measure of its Lap…

Numerical study confirms Brennan's conjecture for a counterexample to Thurston's K=2K=2 conjecture.

problem Thurston's K=2K=2 conjecture and Brennan's conjecture in planar domains.
method Numerical analysis of a specific counterexample to Thurston's conjecture.
result The counterexample does not contradict Brennan's conjecture.

This paper gives an algebraic conjecture which is shown to be equivalent to Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture for closed, orientable 3-manifolds. It generalizes the Stallings-Jaco theorem which established a similar result for the Poincare Conjecture. The paper also gives two other algebraic conjectures; one is equi…

Symmetry-breaking in three differential geometry conjectures.

problem Exploring the role of symmetry in three differential geometry conjectures.
method Examining the Carathéodory, Willmore, and Lawson Conjectures through the lens of symmetry in 3D space-forms.
result Symmetry is broken, and more general ambient metrics are considered, leading to the failure of the conjectures.

We review the Burghelea conjecture, which constitutes a full computation of the periodic cyclic homology of complex group rings, and its relation to the algebraic Baum-Connes conjecture. The Burghelea conjecture implies the Bass conjecture. We state two conjectures about groups of finite asymptotic dimension, which tog…

There is a relation between the generalized Property R Conjecture and the Schoenflies Conjecture that suggests a new line of attack on the latter.
