Exceptional-Unit Bounds by Algebraic Degree
Let $E_0(\alpha)$ be the largest $n$ such that $\alpha^j-1$ is a unit for every $1\leq j\leq n$, or $0$ if $\alpha-1$ is not a unit, and let $e(d)=\max E_0(\alpha)$ over algebraic integers $\alpha$ of degree $d$. Is $e(d)<d$ for every $d\geq7$?

If X is the random flag complex X(n,p) with n^{-2/d} much less than p much less than n^{-2/(d+1)} and d is at least 6, then with high probability X is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of floor(d/2)-spheres.

Given Gromov-Hausdorff limits X of sequences of shrinking Ricci solitons, what geometric and singularity structure can the metric space X have?
unrecoverable
The official contribution uses a broad question about Gromov–Hausdorff limits as motivation and then states its compactness and singular-locus theorem under the relevant volume and diameter bounds; the extraction omits those hypotheses and does not preserve a determinate residual open claim. No separate clean statement...

The proposed additive eigenvalue estimate was posed as open in the report; the cited primary work proves a different multiplicative isoperimetric bound, and no resolution of this additive form was found.

For every dimension $m$, can the eigenvalue estimate for a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{m+1}$ with boundary $\Sigma$ be improved to $\lambda_k(\Sigma)\operatorname{Vol}(\Sigma)^{2/m}\leq A_m I(\Omega)^{1+2/m}+B_m k^{2/m}$, with constants $A_m,B_m$ depending only on $m$?

Maximal Normalized Steklov Eigenvalues

The extracted record is only the heading asking how large the Steklov eigenvalues can be, so it does not identify one precise claim; the report gives bounds and extremal examples but no complete general answer.
