In this note, we will consider two classical volume problems related to elliptic integrals. The first problem has a neat formula by means of elliptic integrals. We remade it with details. In the second problem, we found a messy formula. On…

Using a sums of squares formula for two variable polynomials with no zeros on the bidisk, we are able to give a new proof of a representation for distinguished varieties. For distinguished varieties with no singularities on the two-torus,…

We prove the volume conjecture for any twist knots by using an equivalence relation, complex analysis, analytic continuation, and function of several complex variables on the basis of colored Jones polynomials.

Using the cyclotomic identity we compute sums over d-tuples of monic polynomials in F_q[x] weighted by the multiplicity of their irreducible factors. As consequences we determine explicit expressions for the number of d-tuples of…

Let $R = \mathbb{K}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$, and let $I \subseteq R$ be a monomial ideal of height $h$. We provide a formula for the multiplicity of the powers of $I$ when all the primary ideals of…

We apply the Frobenius method to the Schr\"{o}dinger equation with a truncated Coulomb potential. By means of the tree-term recurrence relation for the expansion coefficients we truncate the series and obtain exact eigenfunctions and…

Classes of simple polynomial and simple trigonometric splines given by Fourier series are considered. It is shown that the class of simple trigonometric splines includes the class of simple polynomial splines. For some parameter values, the…

In this paper I prove a conjecture which gives a lower bound for the largest absolute value of the coefficients of the n-th cyclotomic polynomial for some n. Moreover this estimate is essentially sharp.

This paper solves the open problem on the sharp bound for the number of isolated solutions in $\mathbf{R}_*^n$ to the real system of $n$ polynomial equations in $n$ variables, i.e., the real $n$ by $n$ fewnomial system. For an unmixed…

We investigate the asymptotic best approximation of a smooth, strictly convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ by inscribed polytopes with a restricted number of vertices under the intrinsic volume difference. We prove rigidity phenomena in both…

We prove, combinatorially, that the product of a Schubert polynomial by a Stanley symmetric polynomial is a truncated Schubert polynomial. Using Monk's rule, we derive a nonnegative combinatorial formula for the Schubert polynomial…

Standard approaches to probabilistic reasoning require that one possesses an explicit model of the distribution in question. But, the empirical learning of models of probability distributions from partial observations is a problem for which…

The Brunn-Minkowski theory relies heavily on the notion of mixed volumes. Despite its particular importance, even explicit representations for the mixed volumes of two convex bodies in Euclidean space are available only in special cases.…

We obtain cubature formulas of volume potentials over bounded domains combining the basis functions introduced in the theory of approximate approximations with their integration over the tangential-halfspace. Then the computation is reduced…

We consider the computation of the volume of the union of high-dimensional geometric objects. While showing that this problem is #P-hard already for very simple bodies (i.e., axis-parallel boxes), we give a fast FPRAS for all objects where…

A coarse-grained multi-blob description of polymer solutions is presented, based on soft, transferable effective interactions between bonded and non-bonded blobs. The number of blobs is chosen such that the blob density does not exceed…

Let $\mathbb C$ be the set of complex numbers, and let $\mathcal P$ be a collection of complex polynomial maps in several variables. Assuming at least one $P\in\mathcal P$ depends on at least two variables, we classify all possibilities for…

A precise tie between a univariate spline's knots and its zeros abundance and dissemination is formulated. As an application, a conjecture formulated by De Concini and Procesi is shown to be true in the special univariate, unimodular case.…

When two boundary-parabolic representations of knot groups are given, we introduce the connected sum of these representations and show several natural properties including the unique factorization property. Furthermore, the complex volume…
