Three-dimensional Vlasov–Maxwell regularity

Proves large-data global existence and uniqueness for the three-dimensional, one-species relativistic Vlasov–Maxwell system. Smooth admissible initial data may be arbitrary provided the particle density is compactly supported and the electromagnetic fields have finite energy and bounded derivatives of every order; the solution remains smooth on every finite time interval.

Free group factor isomorphism

Resolves the free group factor isomorphism problem: L(F2)≅L(F3)L(\mathbb F_2)\cong L(\mathbb F_3), and hence all interpolated free group factors, including L(F∞)L(\mathbb F_\infty), are isomorphic. Their common factor has fundamental group R>0\mathbb R_{\gt 0}.

Shelah eventual categoricity

Proves Shelah's eventual categoricity conjecture in ZFC: for each bound on the Löwenheim–Skolem number, a uniform threshold makes categoricity of an abstract elementary class in one cardinal above that threshold imply categoricity throughout the same tail. Categoricity means uniqueness up to isomorphism at a given cardinality. Under the continuum hypothesis, a proposed specific Hanf threshold need not suffice.

Hilbert sixteenth limit-cycle bound

Resolves the uniform boundedness assertion in Hilbert's sixteenth problem: the number of isolated periodic orbits of a real planar polynomial vector field is bounded by a finite constant depending only on its degree. For classical quintic Liénard systems, the exact maximum is two limit cycles.

Matrix multiplication exponent 9/4

Proves ω≤9/4\omega\le9/4 over ℂ, giving Oε(n9/4+ε)O_\varepsilon(n^{9/4+\varepsilon}) arithmetic operations for square matrix multiplication. In characteristic zero, some inner dimension na with a > 0.465 permits n2+o(1)n^{2+o(1)} rectangular multiplication.

Proves L=RL=BPL\mathsf L=\mathsf{RL}=\mathsf{BPL}, resolving derandomization for bounded-error logarithmic-space computation.

Unique Games conjecture

Proves Khot's Unique Games Conjecture. Independent direct reductions also establish NP-hardness, on unweighted graphs, of approximation beyond the Goemans–Williamson ratio for Max-Cut, below factor two for Vertex Cover, and within any fixed constant factor for Min-UnCut and directed feedback vertex set. These direct proofs use established PCP and Label Cover hardness results.

Universal computation in forced Navier–Stokes flows

Constructs viscous incompressible flows starting from rest on a fixed flat three-dimensional domain that perform universal computation under smooth external forcing. A terminating compiler turns a Turing machine and input into a finite program for the force, so a designated particle reaches a fixed region exactly when the machine halts.

De Giorgi's conjecture in dimension eight

Proves De Giorgi's conjecture at its sharp dimension-eight endpoint: every entire C2 solution u:R8→(−1,1)u:\mathbb R^8\to(-1,1) of Δu=u3−u\Delta u=u^3-u that is strictly increasing in one direction depends on only one linear coordinate. A stronger theorem classifies all stable entire solutions v:R7→[−1,1]v:\mathbb R^7\to[-1,1] as constant wells or planar transitions, without an energy-growth assumption.

Nonattainment of the three-marginal Coulomb Monge problem

An optimal three-particle Coulomb configuration need not be a deterministic function of the first particle, even for smooth identical spatial densities. The Monge and Kantorovich infima agree, but the Monge infimum is not attained.
