We are given a complete simple undirected weighted graph and its first arbitrary shortest spanning tree . We define the next graph and find on the second arbitrary shortest spanning tree . We continue similarly by finding on , etc. Let k be the smallest number of disjoint shortest spanning trees as defined above and let be the graph obtained as union of all disjoint trees.
Question 1. What is the smallest number of disjoint spanning trees creates a graph containing a Hamiltonian path.
Question 2. What is the smallest number of disjoint spanning trees creates a graph containing a shortest Hamiltonian path?
Questions 3 and 4. Replace in questions 1 and 2 a shortest spanning tree by a 1-tree. What is the smallest number of disjoint 1-trees creates a Hamiltonian graph? What is the smallest number of disjoint 1-trees creates a graph containing a shortest Hamiltonian cycle?
Conjecture For all positive integers and , there exists an integer such that every graph of average degree at least contains a subgraph of average degree at least and girth greater than .

Conjecture If is a completary multifuncoid of the form , then is a completary multifuncoid of the form .

Refer to this Web site for the theory which I now attempt to generalize.
Conjecture A total coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to the vertices and the edges of such that every pair of adjacent vertices, every pair of adjacent edges and every vertex and incident edge pair, receive different colors. The total chromatic number of a graph , , equals the minimum number of colors needed in a total coloring of . It is an old conjecture of Behzad that for every graph , the total chromatic number equals the maximum degree of a vertex in , plus one or two. In other words,
Begin with the generating function for unrestricted partitions:
(1+x+x^2+...)(1+x^2+x^4+...)(1+x^3+x^6+...)...
Now change some of the plus signs to minus signs. The resulting series will have coefficients congruent, mod 2, to the coefficients of the generating series for unrestricted partitions. I conjecture that the signs may be chosen such that all the coefficients of the series are either 1, -1, or zero.
Question What is the least integer such that every set of at least points in the plane contains collinear points or a subset of points in general position (no three collinear)?
Conjecture Define a array of positive integers where the first row consists of some distinct positive integers arranged in increasing order, and the second row consists of any positive integers in any order. Create a new array where the first row consists of all the integers that occur in the first array, arranged in increasing order, and the second row consists of their multiplicities. Repeat the process. For example, starting with the array , the sequence is: -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> -> , and we now have a fixed point (loop of one array).
The process always results in a loop of 1, 2, or 3 arrays.
Conjecture For every prime , there is a constant (possibly ) so that the union (as multisets) of any bases of the vector space contains an additive basis.

Conjecture Let be the complete funcoid corresponding to the usual topology on extended real line . Let be the order on this set. Then is a complete funcoid.
Proposition It is easy to prove that is the infinitely small right neighborhood filter of point .
If proved true, the conjecture then can be generalized to a wider class of posets.
Let be a hypergraph. A strongly maximal matching is a matching so that for every matching . A strongly minimal cover is a (vertex) cover so that for every cover .
Conjecture If is a (possibly infinite) hypergraph in which all edges have size for some integer , then has a strongly maximal matching and a strongly minimal cover.
The zeroes of the Riemann zeta function that are inside the Critical Strip (i.e. the vertical strip of the complex plane where the real part of the complex variable is in ]0;1[), are actually located on the Critical line ( the vertical line of the complex plane with real part equal to 1/2)
Conjecture A Fermat prime is a Fermat number that is prime. The only known Fermat primes are F_0 =3,F_1=5,F_2=17,F_3 =257 ,F_4=65537 It is unknown if other fermat primes exist.
