Linear Sum-of-Squares Representations on Grassmann Orbitopes
For every Grassmann orbitope $G_{k,n}$, is every calibration representable as a sum of squares of linear polynomials relative to the vanishing ideal $I_{k,n}$? Equivalently, if $\delta-\ell$ is the supporting nonnegative function on $G_{k,n}$, does there exist a representation $\delta-\ell(p)=\sum_i h_i(p)^2$ with all ...

Hopkins' chromatic splitting conjecture asks for a systematic description of how the localized chromatic layers L_nS of the p-local sphere glue together, including the wedge-summand decomposition L_{n-1}L_{K(n)}S\simeq L_{n-1}S\vee\Sigma F_n and the predicted homotopy type of \Sigma F_n.

The Ueno-type variety $X_{4,6}$ is birational to a diagonal cubic surface over $k(t_1,t_2)$. Can that cubic surface be modified birationally, analogously to the conic-bundle treatment of $X_{3,4}$, to prove that $X_{4,6}$ is rational?
Can the cubic surface in the birational description of X_{4,6} be modified birationally, as in the conic-bundle case, to prove that X_{4,6} is rational?

Are elements of $\pi_n(\mathrm{TMF})$ naturally parametrized by $n$-dimensional semisimple compact-type Lie algebras through the Stolz–Teichner cocycle construction? Does the Stolz–Teichner cocycle construction hit exactly the classes represented by compact Lie groups with left-invariant framings?
Are there elements of \pi_n(TMF) naturally parametrized by n-dimensional semisimple compact-type Lie algebras and plausibly obtained from the Stolz--Teichner cocycle construction? Conjecturally, that construction hits exactly the classes represented by compact Lie groups with their left-invariant framings.

Kadison–Singer Methods for Ihara Zeta Functions
For a connected $k$-regular graph $G$ with adjacency matrix $A$, the Ihara zeta function satisfies $\zeta(u,G)^{-1}=(1-u^2)^{|E|-|V|}\det(I-Au+(k-1)u^2I)$. Can Kadison–Singer and interlacing-polynomial methods yield new information about this zeta function?

For a homogeneous space $X$ and its Landau–Ginzburg mirror, can the relationship be made more symmetric? Can the mirror be expressed in coordinates naturally related to the cohomology of $X$? Does the map from cohomology to twisted de Rham cohomology extend to an isomorphism of bundles with connection?

Hodge and Order Filtrations on GKZ Modules
For the GKZ modules $M_A^0$ and $M_A^{-c}$, the Hodge filtration equals the order filtration up to the shifts $F^H_\bullet M_A^0=F^{\mathrm{ord}}_{\bullet+d}M_A^0$ and $F^H_\bullet M_A^{-c}=F^{\mathrm{ord}}_{\bullet-n-c_0}M_A^{-c}$, where $c_0$ is the first component of $c\in NA\subset\mathbb Z^{d+1}$.

Is $\operatorname{rank}\widetilde{\mathcal S}(M)\geq N_{\mathrm{fin}}(G)$, where $\widetilde{\mathcal S}(M)$ is the structure group modulo classes induced by orientation-preserving self-homotopy equivalences and $N_{\mathrm...
