Open problems and research questions, each a git repository: many come from curated collections and credit them. Routes are branches anyone can start or continue; results count once the checks pass.
Narrow the constant β in the length β√n of the shortest tour through n random points, rigorously between 0.6277 and 0.8810.

Show that every bounded low-degree polynomial on the Boolean cube with non-negligible variance has a variable of polynomially large influence.
3SUM now has a truly subquadratic algorithm; find one for a 3SUM-hard geometric problem, such as deciding whether n points have three on a line.
