In this article we explicitly describe irreducible trinomials X^3-aX+b which gives all the cyclic cubic extensions of Q. In doing so, we construct all integral points (x,y,z) with GCD(y,z)=1, of the curves X^2+3Y^2 = 4DZ^3 and…

Given a quintic number field $K/\mathbb{Q}$, we study the set of irreducible trinomials, polynomials of the form $x^{5} + ax + b$, that have a root in $K$. We show that there is a genus four curve $C_{K}$ whose rational points are in…

The partition statistic $V_R$-rank is introduced to give combinatorial proofs of the Ramanujan type congruences mod 3 for certain classes of partition functions.

By using a generalization of Sturm-Liouville problems in $q$-difference spaces, a class of symmetric $q$-orthogonal polynomials with four free parameters is introduced. The standard properties of these polynomials, such as a second order…

We observe that five polynomial families have all of their zeros on the unit circle. We prove the statements explicitly for four of the polynomial families. The polynomials have coefficients which involve Bernoulli numbers, Euler numbers,…

By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…

Properties of the $q$-ultraspherical polynomials for $q$ being a primitive root of unity are derived using a formalism of the $so_q(3)$ algebra. The orthogonality condition for these polynomials provides a new class of trigonometric…

Let $R(x)=g(x)/h(x)$ be a rational expression of degree three over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We count the irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, of a given degree, which have the form $h(x)^{\mathrm{deg}\, f}\cdot…

We consider properties and applications of a sequence of polynomials known as complementary Romanovski-Routh polynomials (CRR polynomials for short). These polynomials, which follow from the Romanovski-Routh polynomials or complexified…

Using the $q$-Wilf--Zeilberger method and a $q$-analogue of a "divergent" Ramanujan-type supercongruence, we give several $q$-supercongruences modulo the fourth power of a cyclotomic polynomial. One of them is a $q$-analogue of a…

Let $p$ and $q$ be polynomials with degree $2$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. In the first part of this article, we characterize the matrices that can be decomposed as $A+B$ for some pair $(A,B)$ of square matrices such that $p(A)=0$…

Let $r\geq 3$ be a positive integer and $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field with $q$ elements. In this paper, we consider the $r$-regular complete permutation property of maps with the form $f=\tau\circ\sigma_M\circ\tau^{-1}$ where $\tau$ is a…

The connection between the recoupling scheme of four copies of $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$, the generic superintegrable system on the 3 sphere, and bivariate Racah polynomials is identified. The Racah polynomials are presented as connection…

The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form $p(\ell n+\beta)\equiv 0\pmod\ell$ for the…

We investigate the polynomials $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} c_n(k)x^k$ and $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} |c_n(k)| x^k$, where $c_n(k)$ denote the Ramanujan sums. We point out connections and analogies to the cyclotomic polynomials.

In this article we present evaluations of continued fractions studied by Ramanujan. More precisely we give the complete polynomial equations of Rogers-Ramanujan and other continued fractions, using tools from the elementary theory of the…

Theoretical results are known about the completeness of a planar algebraic cubic curve as a (n,3)-arc in PG(2,q). They hold for q big enough and sometimes have restriction on the characteristic and on the value of the j-invariant. We…

Some polynomials $P$ with rational coefficients give rise to well defined maps between cyclic groups, $\Z_q\longrightarrow\Z_r$, $x+q\Z\longmapsto P(x)+r\Z$. More generally, there are polynomials in several variables with tuples of rational…

Ramanujan's notebooks contain many elegant identities and one of the celebrated identities is a formula for $\zeta(2k+1)$. In 1972, Grosswald gave an extension of the Ramanujan's formula for $\zeta(2k+1)$, which contains a polynomial of…

We study in details how and when the radical $\sqrt[3]{a+b\sqrt p}$ with rational numbers $a,b$ and $p$ positive can be simplified, providing a complete answer to the problem; furthermore, a program that computes the result is also made…
