Legends: Folklore on Reddit [PDF]
In this paper we introduce Reddit legends, a collection of venerated old posts that have become famous on Reddit. To establish the utility of Reddit legends for both computational science/HCI and folkloristics, we investigate two main questions: (1) whether they can be considered folklore, i.e.

Remarks on manifolds with two sided curvature bounds [PDF]
We discuss folklore statements about distance functions in manifolds with two sided bounded curvature. The topics include regularity, subsets of positive reach and the cut locus.

Sections of polar actions [PDF]
In this short note we provide an elementary proof of the folklore result in the theory of isometric Lie group actions on Riemannian manifolds asserting that sections of polar actions are totally geodesic.

Primes, Pi, and Irrationality Measure [PDF]
A folklore proof of Euclid's theorem on the infinitude of primes uses the Euler product and the irrationality of $\zeta(2) = \pi^2/6$. A quantified form of Euclid's Theorem is Bertrand's postulate $p_{n+1} < 2p_n$. By quantifying the folklore proof using an irrationality measure for $6/\pi^2$, we give a proof (communicated to Paulo Ribenboim in 2005 ...

On Sequences with Exponentially Distributed Gaps [PDF]
We disprove a folklore conjecture stating that a sequence in $[0,1]$ with exponential gap distribution must necessarily be uniformly distributed.

Nilpotence in the symplectic bordism ring [PDF]
We prove a folklore result which gives a sequence of necessary and sufficient conditions for a stably symplectic manifold to define a nilpotent element in the symplectic bordism ring.
