The Loewy length of the descent algebra of type D_{2m+1} is shown to be m+2, for m \geq 2, by providing an upper bound that agrees with the lower bound in \cite{BonnafePfeiffer2006}. The bound is obtained by showing that the length of the…

Let $P(z)$ be a polynomial of degree $n,$ then it is known that for $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$ with $|\alpha|\leq \frac{n}{2},$ \begin{align*} \underset{|z|=1}{\max}|\left|zP^{\prime}(z)-\alpha P(z)\right|\leq…

The moduli space of degree $d$ morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^1$ has received much study. McMullen showed that, except for certain families of Latt\`es maps, there is a finite-to-one correspondence (over $\mathbb{C}$) between classes of morphisms…

Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized complex abelian variety of dimension $g$ where $L$ is a polarization of type $(1,...,1,d)$. For $(X,L)$ genberic we prove the following: (1) If $d \ge g+2$, then $\phi_L\colon X \to {\bf P}^{d-1}$ defines a…

In this paper, we give a constructive proof of the fact that the treewidth of a graph is at most its divisorial gonality. The proof gives a polynomial time algorithm to construct a tree decomposition of width at most $k$, when an effective…

We investigate the class of finite dimensional not necessary associative algebras that have slowly growing length, that is, for any algebra in this class its length is less than or equal to its dimension. We show that this class is…

Let $\mathcal A$ be an $\mathbb F$-algebra and let $\mathcal S$ be its generating set. The length of $\mathcal S$ is the smallest number $k$ such that $\mathcal A$ equals the $\mathbb F$-linear span of all products of length at most $k$ of…

We give the stratification by the symmetric tensor rank of all degree $d \ge 9$ homogeneous polynomials with border rank $5$ and which depend essentially on at least 5 variables, extending previous works (A. Bernardi, A. Gimigliano, M.…

We prove the Pierce--Birkhoff conjecture for splines, i.e., continuous piecewise polynomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables on a hyperplane partition of $\mathbb{R}^n$, can be written as a finite lattice combination of polynomials. We will…

Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…

In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the density of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ with squarefree discriminant over various subsets of the set of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of fixed degree. We compute the…

In this paper we give for any integer l > 2 a numerical criterion ensuring the existence of a chain of length l of lines through two general points of an irreducible variety X in P^N, involving the degrees and the number of homogeneous…

Let $\Lambda$ be an artin algebra. We give an upper bound for the dimension of the bounded derived category of the category $\mod \Lambda$ of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules in terms of the projective and injective dimensions of…

We obtain explicit factorizations of reduced period polynomials of degree $2^m$, $m\ge 4$, for finite fields of characteristic $p\equiv 3$ or $5\pmod{8}$. This extends the results of G. Myerson, who considered the cases $m=1$ and $m=2$, and…

We consider the Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, which can be related to the generalised Bernoulli polynomials $B_n^{(n)}(z)$. The asymptotic expansions of the scaled polynomials $B_n^{(n)}(nz)$ are obtained as $n\to\infty$ when…

Given n convex bodies in the real space of dimension d, we consider the set of homogeneous polynomials of degree d in n variables that can be represented as their volume polynomial. This set is a subset of the set of Lorentzian polynomials.…

2-level polytopes naturally appear in several areas of pure and applied mathematics, including combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, communication complexity, and statistics. In this paper, we present a study of some 2-level…

The notion of level posets is introduced. This class of infinite posets has the property that between every two adjacent ranks the same bipartite graph occurs. When the adjacency matrix is indecomposable, we determine the length of the…

We show that all knots up to $6$ crossings can be represented by polynomial knots of degree at most $7$, among which except for $5_2, 5_2^*, 6_1, 6_1^*, 6_2, 6_2^*$ and $6_3$ all are in their minimal degree representation. We provide…
