Given two polynomials $P(\underline x)$, $Q(\underline x)$ in one or more variables and with integer coefficients, how does the property that they are coprime relate to their values $P(\underline n), Q(\underline n)$ at integer points…

Let $k$ be a Brauer field, that is, a field over which every diagonal form in sufficiently many variables has a nonzero solution; for instance, $k$ could be an imaginary quadratic number field. Brauer proved that if $f_1, \ldots, f_r$ are…

How often is a quintic polynomial solvable by radicals? We establish that the number of such polynomials, monic and irreducible with integer coefficients in $[-H,H]$, is $O(H^{3.91})$. More generally, we show that if $n \ge 3$ and $n \notin…

For any real numbers $a,\ b$, and $c$, we form the sequence of polynomials $\{P_n(z)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ satisfying the four-term recurrence \[ P_n(z)+azP_{n-1}(z)+bP_{n-2}(z)+czP_{n-3}(z)=0,\ n\in\mathbb{N}, \] with the initial conditions…

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 Bohnenblust--Hille inequality says that the $\ell^{\frac{2m}{m+1}}$-norm of the coefficients of an $m$-homogeneous polynomial $P$ on $\C^n$ is bounded by $\| P\|_\infty$ times a constant independent of $n$, where $\|\cdot \|_\infty$…

The paper deals with a complex polynomial $H$ in two variables having - a generic highest homogeneous part (without multiple zero lines), - nonconstant lower terms. In particular, under these conditions the polynomial $H$ has at least two…

We show that an irreducible polynomial $p$ with no zeros on the closure of a matrix unit polyball, a.k.a. a cartesian product of Cartan domains of type I, and such that $p(0)=1$, admits a strictly contractive determinantal representation,…

We consider homogeneous multiaffine polynomials whose coefficients are the Pl\"ucker coordinates of a point $V$ of the Grassmannian. We show that such a polynomial is stable (with respect to the upper half plane) if and only if $V$ is in…

We study the computational limits of the following general hypothesis testing problem. Let H=H_n be an \emph{arbitrary} undirected graph on n vertices. We study the detection task between a ``null'' Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph G(n,p)…

Given a proper cone $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, a multivariate polynomial $f \in \mathbb{C}[z] = \mathbb{C}[z_1, \ldots, z_n]$ is called $K$-stable if it does not have a root whose vector of the imaginary parts is contained in the interior…

We give an explicit description of the homomorphism group H_n(p) of a strong type p in any stable theory under the assumption that for every non-forking extension q of p the groups H_i(q) are trivial for i at least 2 but less than n. The…

Given a polynomial P in several variables over an algebraically closed field, we show that except in some special cases that we fully describe, if one coefficient is allowed to vary, then the polynomial is irreducible for all but at most…

In this work, the determinants of matrices constructed by evaluating homogeneous bivariate polynomials at pairs of vectors are investigated. For a polynomial $p(x,y)=\sum\limits_{i=0}^k \alpha_i x^{k-i}y^i$, an explicit factorization of the…

In this survey we determine an explicit set of generators of the maximal ideals in the ring $\mathbb R[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ of polynomials in $n$ variables with real coefficients and give an easy analytic proof of the Bass-Vasershtein theorem on…

Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]/I$ be a standard graded $k$-algebra where $k$ is a field of prime characteristic and let $J$ be a homogeneous ideal in $R$. Denote $(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ by $\mathfrak{m}$. We prove that there is a constant $C$…

We introduce and study the notion of conic stability of multivariate complex polynomials in $\mathbb{C}[z_1,\ldots, z_n]$, which naturally generalizes the stability of multivariate polynomials. In particular, we generalize Borcea's and…

By the von Neumann inequality for homogeneous polynomials there exists a positive constant $C_{k,q}(n)$ such that for every $k$-homogeneous polynomial $p$ in $n$ variables and every $n$-tuple of commuting operators $(T_1, \dots, T_n)$ with…

A real univariate polynomial with all roots real is called hyperbolic. By Descartes' rule of signs for hyperbolic polynomials (HPs) with all coefficients nonvanishing, a HP with $c$ sign changes and $p$ sign preservations in the sequence of…
