We study a correspondence between numerical sets and integer partitions that leads to a bijection between simultaneous core partitions and the integer points of a certain polytope. We use this correspondence to prove combinatorial results…

In this paper we present a systematic way to describe exceptional Jacobi polynomials via two partitions. We give the construction of these polynomials and restate the known aspects of these polynomials in terms of their partitions. The aim…

We study the asymptotic distribution of roots of Lommel polynomials as polynomials of the order with a variable and purely imaginary argument. The roots are complex and accumulate on certain curves in the complex plane. We prove existence…

A real univariate polynomial of degree $n$ is called hyperbolic if all of its $n$ roots are on the real line. Such polynomials appear quite naturally in different applications, for example, in combinatorics and optimization. The focus of…

The partition functions $P(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitions of $n$ into exactly $m$ parts with each part at most $p$, and $Q(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitons of $n$ into exactly $m$ distinct parts with each part at most…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^e$ elements, where $p$ is a prime and $e\geq 1$ is an integer. Let $\ell<n$ be two positive integers. Fix a monic polynomial $u(x)=x^n +u_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots +u_{\ell+1}x^{\ell+1} \in…

We describe the asymptotic behavior of weighted factorization lengths on numerical semigroups. Our approach is geometric as opposed to analytic, explains the presence of Curry-Schoenberg B-splines as limiting distributions, and provides…

The study of random polynomials has a long and rich history. This paper studies random algebraic polynomials $P_n(x) = a_0 + a_1 x + \ldots + a_{n-1} x^{n-1}$ where the coefficients $(a_k)$ are correlated random variables taken as the…

We show that the proportion of polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field with $q$ elements, which have a divisor of every degree below $n$, is given by $c_q n^{-1} + O(n^{-2})$. More generally, we give an asymptotic formula for the…

In this paper we strongly improve asymptotics for $s_1(n)$ (respectively $s_2(n)$) which sums reciprocals (respectively squares of reciprocals) of parts throughout all the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts. The methods required are much…

We consider quantum interpolation of polynomials. We imagine a quantum computer with black-box access to input/output pairs (x_i, f(x_i)), where f is a degree-d polynomial, and we wish to compute f(0). We give asymptotically tight quantum…

Using elementary methods, we prove new formulas for $\operatorname{pp}(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$, $\operatorname{pp}_r(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$ with at most $r$ rows, $\operatorname{pp}^s(n)$, the number…

Let $F_1,\ldots,F_R$ be homogeneous polynomials with integer coefficients in $n$ variables with differing degrees. Write $\boldsymbol{F}=(F_1,\ldots,F_R)$ with $D$ being the maximal degree. Suppose that $\boldsymbol{F}$ is a nonsingular…

We look at the asymptotic behavior of the coefficients of the $q$-binomial coefficients (or Gaussian polynomials) $\binom{a+k}{k}_q$, when $k$ is fixed. We give a number of results in this direction, some of which involve Eulerian…

We study the zero set of polynomials built from partition statistics, complementing earlier work in this direction by Boyer, Goh, Parry, and others. In particular, addressing a question of Males with two of the authors, we prove asymptotics…

Let $K \subset \R^d$ be a smooth convex set and let $\P_\la$ be a Poisson point process on $\R^d$ of intensity $\la$. The convex hull of $\P_\la \cap K$ is a random convex polytope $K_\la$. As $\la \to \infty$, we show that the variance of…

We use a non-linear characterization of orthonormal polynomials due to Saff in order to show that the behavior of orthonormal polynomials is determined only by its leading coefficient and its normalization. Several applications of this…

The polytope of integer partitions of $n$ is the convex hull of the corresponding $n$-dimensional integer points. Its vertices are of importance because every partition is their convex combination. Computation shows intriguing features of…
