Given is a 3SAT (3CNF) formula on variables, for some , and clauses drawn uniformly at random from the set of formulas on variables. Return with probability at least 0.5 (over the instances) that is typical without returning typical for any instance with at least simultaneously satisfiable clauses.
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 .

Conjecture An endomorphism of a graph is a mapping on the vertex set of the graph which preserves edges. Among all the vertices' trees, the star with vertices has the most endomorphisms, while the path with vertices has the least endomorphisms.
Problem Given two codes , their Tensor Product is the code that consists of the matrices whose rows are codewords of and whose columns are codewords of . The product is said to be robust if whenever a matrix is far from , the rows (columns) of are far from (, respectively).
The problem is to give a characterization of the pairs whose tensor product is robust.

Conjecture Can all problems that can be computed by a probabilistic Turing machine (with error probability < 1/3) in polynomial time be solved by a deterministic Turing machine in polynomial time? That is, does P = BPP?
Problem Ian Agol and Matthias Goerner observed that the 4x5 chessboard complex is the complement of many distinct links in the 3-sphere. Their observation is non-constructive, as it uses the resolution of the Poincare Conjecture. Find specific links that have the 4x5 chessboard complex as their complement.
Conjecture For , let be the statement that given any exact -coloring of the edges of a complete countably infinite graph (that is, a coloring with colors all of which must be used at least once), there exists an exactly -colored countably infinite complete subgraph.
