Two-Term Weyl Asymptotics and Ivrii's Billiard Conjecture
For every smooth planar domain $\Omega$, does the eigenvalue counting function satisfy $$ N(\lambda)=\frac{\operatorname{Area}(\Omega)}{4\pi}\lambda+C\ell(\partial\Omega)\lambda^{1/2}+o(\lambda^{1/2})? $$ Also, does every smooth planar billiard domain have periodic trajectories of measure zero?

For a finite simple graph $\Gamma$ and an odd prime $p$, determine the ordinary representation theory of the exponent-$p$, nilpotency-class-two group $G_\Gamma(\mathbb F_p)$. For each $i\geq1$, how does the number of its irreducible characters of degree $p^i$ depend on $p$?

Kauffman-bracket and related skein modules provide established Jones-type generalizations, but a single canonical Jones/HOMFLYPT polynomial with the full classical role for arbitrary 3-manifolds is not established.

Knot Complements and Prime Decomposition in General Three-Manifolds
For knots in general 3-manifolds, what is the correct Gordon–Luecke analogue and is it true—for example, does an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of complements imply equivalence of knots in closed oriented irreducible 3-manifolds outside the rational-unknot lens-space exceptions—and does a prime decomposition theo...

The strong Gordon-Luecke analogue is false, while the weak analogue remains open in the stated generality; the separate prime-decomposition question was answered by Miyazaki, with nonterminating decompositions possible.

The Weak Gordon–Luecke Conjecture
Let $K_1$ and $K_2$ be knots in a closed oriented irreducible $3$-manifold $Y$, neither a rational unknot in a lens space. Prove that $Y\setminus K_1$ and $Y\setminus K_2$ are orientation-preservingly homeomorphic if and only if an orientation-preserving self-homeomorphism of $Y$ takes $K_1$ to $K_2$.

For knots in general 3-manifolds the complement-determines-knot statement is not proved; the weak Gordon-Luecke formulation is tied to still-open cosmetic-surgery questions.

Let $K_1$ and $K_2$ be knots in a closed oriented irreducible $3$-manifold $Y$, neither a rational unknot in a lens space. Prove that $Y\setminus K_1$ and $Y\setminus K_2$ are orientation-preservingly homeomorphic if and only if an orientation-preserving self-homeomorphism of $Y$ takes $K_1$ to $K_2$.
Weak Gordon--Luecke conjecture: if K_1 and K_2 are knots in a closed oriented irreducible 3-manifold Y, under the usual nonexceptional hypotheses, then Y\setminus K_1\cong Y\setminus K_2 by an orientation-preserving homeomorphism if and only if K_1 and K_2 are equivalent under an orientation-preserving self-homeomorphi...

Bridge Position for Surfaces in Trisected Four-Manifolds
Any smoothly embedded surface S in a trisected 4-manifold X=X_1\cup X_2\cup X_3 can be isotoped into bridge position: S meets the central surface transversely in an even number of points, each S\cap X_i\cap X_j is a boundary-parallel tangle, and each S\cap X_i is a boundary-parallel disk tangle.

The extracted record contains only the word conjecture and a theorem about bridge position, so the intended conjectural claim cannot be identified; under the triage rule it remains open.
