Let $p(z)=a_0+a_1z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots+a_nz^n$ be a polynomial of degree $n,$ where the coefficients $a_j,$ $j \in \{0,1,2,\cdots n\},$ may be complex. We impose some restriction on the coefficients of the real part of the given polynomial…
We show under a mild hypothesis that given field elements $a_0, \dots, a_m \in K$, there always exists a degree-$m$ polynomial whose $n$th power whose degree-$jn$ coefficient is equal to $a_j$ for $0 \leq j \leq m$. We provide an alternate…
Let $q$ be a power of a prime, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and let $n \geq 2$. For a polynomial $h(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ of degree $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and a subset $W \subseteq [0,n] := \{0, 1, \ldots, n\}$, we…
Let $ K $ be a number field, $ S $ a finite set of places of $ K $, and $ \mathcal{O}_S $ be the ring of $ S $-integers. Moreover, let $$ G_n^{(0)} Z^d + \cdots + G_n^{(d-1)} Z + G_n^{(d)} $$ be a polynomial in $ Z $ having simple linear…
Let $f$ be an ordinary polynomial in $\mathbb{C}[z_1,..., z_n]$ with no negative exponents and with no factor of the form $z_1^{\alpha_1}... z_n^{\alpha_n}$ where $\alpha_i$ are non zero natural integer. If we assume in addicting that $f$…
We establish a lower bound for the frequency with which an irreducible monic cubic polynomial with negative discriminant can be expressed as a sum of two squares ($\square_{2}$). This provides a quantitative answer to a question posed by…
We provide upper bounds on the largest subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ with no differences of the form $h_1(n_1)+\cdots+h_{\ell}(n_{\ell})$ with $n_i\in \mathbb{N}$ or $h_1(p_1)+\cdots+h_{\ell}(p_{\ell})$ with $p_i$ prime, where $h_i\in…
We prove new bounds for how often Dirichlet polynomials can take large values. This gives improved estimates for a Dirichlet polynomial of length $N$ taking values of size close to $N^{3/4}$, which is the critical situation for several…
We exhibit a sequence of flat polynomials with coefficients $0,1$. We thus get that there exist a sequences of Newman polynomials that are $L^\alpha$-flat, $0 \leq \alpha <2$. This settles an old question of Littlewood. In the opposite…
Let $f(x)$ be a non-zero polynomial with complex coefficients, and $M_p = \int_{0}^1 f(x)^p dx$ for $p$ a positive integer. In a recent paper, M\"uger and Tuset showed that $\limsup_{p \to \infty} |M_p|^{1/p} > 0$, and conjectured that this…
Let f be a square-free polynomial in Fq[t][x] where Fq is a field of q elements. We view f as a polynomial in the variable x with coefficients in the ring Fq[t]. We study squarefree values of f in sparse subsets of Fq[t] which are given by…
We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with sparse polynomials $a_0x^{n_0} + \cdots + a_{\nu}x^{n_\nu}$. The bounds depend on various greatest common divisors of exponents $n_0, \ldots, n_\nu$ and their differences. In…
The multi-variable Schmidt polynomials are defined by $$ S_n^{(r)}(x_0,\ldots,x_n):=\sum_{k=0}^n {n+k \choose 2k}^{r}{2k\choose k} x_k. $$ We prove that, for any positive integers $m$, $n$, $r$, and $\varepsilon=\pm 1$, all the coefficients…
We study the problem of determining which integer polynomials divide Newman polynomials. In this vein, we first give results concerning the $8438$ known polynomials with Mahler measure less than $1.3$. We then exhibit a list of polynomials…
The coefficients of the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials $P_{v,w}(q)$ are nonnegative integers that are upper semicontinuous on Bruhat order. Conjecturally, the same properties hold for $h$-polynomials $H_{v,w}(q)$ of local rings of Schubert…
Let S(n,0) be the set of monic complex polynomials of degree $n\ge 2$ having all their zeros in the closed unit disk and vanishing at 0. For $p\in S(n,0)$ denote by $|p|_{0}$ the distance from the origin to the zero set of $p'$. We…
In this paper we characterize real bivariate polynomials which have a small range over large Cartesian products. We show that for every constant-degree bivariate real polynomial $f$, either $|f(A,B)|=\Omega(n^{4/3})$, for every pair of…

We identify an assumption on linear forms $\phi_1, \dots, \phi_k: \mathbb{F}_p^n \to \mathbb{F}_p$ that is much weaker than approximate joint equidistribution on the Boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$ and is in a sense almost as weak as linear…
