Let $q$ be a prime power. We construct stable polynomials of the form $b^{m-1}(x+a)^m+c(x+a)+d$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ for $m=2,3,4$ by Capelli's lemma. When $m=3$ and $q$ is even, we confirm the conjecture of Ahmadi and…

A. Mukhopadhyay, M. R. Murty and K. Srinivas (http://arxiv.org/abs/0808.0418) have recently studied various arithmetic properties of the discriminant $\Delta_n(a,b)$ of the trinomial $f_{n,a,b}(t) = t^n + at + b$, where $n \ge 5$ is a fixed…

Carmichael quotients for an integer $m\ge 2$ are introduced analogous to Fermat quotients, by using Carmichael function $\lambda(m)$. Various properties of these new quotients are investigated, such as basic arithmetic properties, sequences…

We consider the problem of uniform interpolation of functions with values in a complex inner product space of finite dimension. This problem can be casted within a modified weighted pluripotential theoretic framework. Indeed, in the…

We study Wronskians of Hermite polynomials labelled by partitions and use the combinatorial concepts of cores and quotients to derive explicit expressions for their coefficients. These coefficients can be expressed in terms of the…

In this paper, we present the greatest values $\alpha$, $\lambda$ and $p$, and the least values $\beta$, $\mu$ and $q$ such that the double inequalities $\alpha D(a,b)+(1-\alpha)H(a,b)<T(a,b)<\beta D(a,b)+(1-\beta) H(a,b)$, $\lambda…

This paper mainly studies problems about so called "permutation polynomials modulo $m$", polynomials with integer coefficients that can induce bijections over Z_m={0,...,m-1}. The necessary and sufficient conditions of permutation…

Singular nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials are constructed by use of the representation theory of the Hecke algebras of the symmetric groups. These polynomials are labeled by quasistaircase partitions and are associated to special…

The $q$-analogue of an integer $m$ is given by $[m]_q=(1-q^m)/(1-q)$. Let $a$ be an integer, and let $n$ be a positive odd integer. Via discrete Fourier transforms, we establish the following two identities:…

This work introduces a new class of symmetric matrix structures, called harmonic structures, which enable the generation of all possible directed transitions $(x_i, x_{i+1})$ over a set of $n$ symbols, without internal repetitions. Unlike…

We introduce the notion of a Mahonian pair. Consider the set, P^*, of all words having the positive integers as alphabet. Given finite subsets S,T of P^*, we say that (S,T) is a Mahonian pair if the distribution of the major index, maj,…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ denote the set of integers $n$ that can be represented as the sum $n = x^2 + y^2$ with $(x,y) = 1$. Let $a$ and $b$ be integers with $a>0$, $a \nmid b$. We show that for sufficiently large positive integer $N$ there are…

Let $f$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients such that $f(n)$ positive for any positive integer $n$. We consider diverging sequences $\{ y_n\}$ given by $y_0 = b$ and $y_{n+1} = f^{y_n}(a)$ with positive integers $a$ and $b$. We show…

Let $q,n \geq 1$ be integers, $[q]=\{1,\ldots, q\}$, and $\mathbb F$ be a field with $|\mathbb F|\geq q$. The set of increasing sequences $$ I(n,q)=\{(f_1,f_2, \dots, f_n) \in [q]^n:~ f_1\leq f_2\leq\cdots \leq f_n \} $$ can be mapped via…

Let $F(X)= \prod_{i=1}^k(a_iX+b_i)$ be a polynomial with $a_i, b_i$ being integers. Suppose the discriminant of $F$ is non-zero and $F$ is admissible. Given any natural number $N$, let $S(F,N)$ denotes those integers less than or equal to…

In this paper we shall consider some famous means such as arithmetic, harmonic, geometric, root-square means, etc. Some new means recently studied are also presented. Different kinds of refinement of inequalities among these means are…

We prove that for positive semidefinite matrices $A$ and $B$ the following determinantal inequality holds: \[ \det(I+A\#B)\le \det(I+A^{1/2}B^{1/2}), \] where $A\#B$ is the geometric mean of $A$ and $B$. We apply this inequality to the…
