Questions, not proof records

Open-problem statements, with their sources attached.

Each statement record keeps the mathematical question, a dated status source, accessible references, and any pinned Lean formulation separate from proof verification.

“Open” is a dated source assertion. In these pinned sources, sorry marks an admitted statement, not a proof. Source indexing does not mean the formulation has been independently built or certified by Therefore.

Hartshorne Conjecture

There are no indecomposable vector bundles of rank 2 on Pn\mathbb{P}^n for n7n \ge 7. This is Conjecture 6.3 in [Har1974].

Strong Sensitivity Conjecture (`bs(f) ≤ s(f)^2`)

Strong Sensitivity Conjecture, for every Boolean function f : {0,1}^n → {0,1}, bs(f) ≤ s(f)^2.

We call this the strong sensitivity conjecture because the original sensitivity conjecture only asked for a polynomial bound in terms of s(f). Huang's celebrated result (often called the sensitivity theorem) gives a quartic bound, bs(f) ≤ s(f)^4, thereby settling the original conjecture.

Voronovskaja-type Formula for the Bezier Variant of the Bernstein Operators: Bezier Bernstein Operators

Conjecture: Voronovskaja-type formula for Bézier-Bernstein operators with shape parameter α>0\alpha > 0, α1\alpha \neq 1.

The source asks for sufficiently smooth functions. This concrete version uses ContDiffOn ℝ 2 f I as a readable baseline regularity assumption; since the domain is the compact interval [0,1][0,1], this also explains why no separate boundedness assumption is included here. The variants below record the unknown smoothness threshold more explicitly.

The $S_3$-conjecture (conjugacy classes of distinct sizes)

Markel's S3S_3-conjecture* (1973): any nontrivial finite ah-group is isomorphic to S3S_3.

The conjecture is open in general; it is known to be true for solvable groups.

Note: Nonempty X is required since the conclusion asserts the existence of a point.
