We study the Lonely Runner Conjecture (LRC), conceived by J\"org M. Wills in the 1960's: Given positive integers $n_1, n_2, \dots, n_k$, there exists a positive real number $t$ such that for all $1 \le j \le k$ the distance of $t \,n_j$ to the nearest integer is at least $\frac{ 1 }{ k+1 }$. We prove that for any count...

Bergeron's conjecture states that, if $1\leq a<b<c<d$ are integers with $ad=bc$, then one has the coefficient-wise inequality ${\binom{b+c}b}_q \ge {\binom{a+d}a}_q$ among two Gaussian polynomials. It originated in algebraic combinatorics and is wide open. The corresponding inequality for binomial coefficients (i.e., t...
