Honda and Tate showed that the isogeny classes of abelian varieties of dimension $g$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ are classified in terms of $q$-Weil polynomials of degree $2g$, that is, monic integer polynomials whose set of complex…

In this paper, we shall find a new connection between $n$th degree polynomial mod $p$ congruence with $n$ roots and higher-order Fibonacci and Lucas sequences. We shall first discuss the recent work been done in sequences and their…

We study sums of powers of Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials of the form $% \sum_{n=0}^{q}F_{tsn}^{k}(x) $ and $\sum_{n=0}^{q}L_{tsn}^{k}% (x) $, where $s,t,k$ are given natural numbers, together with the corresponding alternating sums…

We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…

We introduce a new type of Krasnoselskii's result. Using a simple differentiability condition, we relax the nonexpansive condition in Krasnoselskii's theorem. More clearly, we analyze the convergence of the sequence…

The classical Fibonacci sequence is known to exhibit many fascinating properties. In this paper, we explore the Fibonacci sequence and integer sequences generated by second order linear recurrence relations with positive integer…

Let $F_n$ be the $n$th Fibonacci number. Let $m, n$ be positive integers. Define a sequence $(G(k,n,m))_{k\geq 1}$ by $G(1,n,m) = F^m_n$, and $G(k+1,n,m) = F_{nG(k,n,m)}$ for all $k\geq 1$. We show that $F_n^{k+m-1}\mid G(k,n,m)$ for all…

As a generalization of planar Fibonacci spirals that are based on the recurrence relation $F_n=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$, we draw assembled spirals stemming from analytic solutions of the recurrence relation $G_n=a\, G_{n-1}+b\, G_{n-2}+c\, d\,^n$,…

Solutions to the random Fibonacci recurrence x_{n+1}=x_{n} + or - Bx_{n-1} decrease (increase) exponentially, x_{n} = exp(lambda n), for sufficiently small (large) B. In the limits B --> 0 and B --> infinity, we expand the Lyapunov exponent…

New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…

Let $c_1(x),c_2(x),f_1(x),f_2(x)$ be polynomials with rational coefficients. With obvious exceptions, there can be at most finitely many roots of unity among the zeros of the polynomials $c_1(x)f_1(x)^n+c_2(x)f_2(x)^n$ with $n=1,2\ldots$.…

Let $f = \sum_{k=0}^n \varepsilon_k z^k$ be a random polynomial, where $\varepsilon_0,\ldots ,\varepsilon_n$ are iid standard Gaussian random variables, and let $\zeta_1,\ldots,\zeta_n$ denote the roots of $f$. We show that the point…

Say a trinomial $x^n+A x^m+B \in \Q[x]$ has reducibility type $(n_1,n_2,...,n_k)$ if there exists a factorization of the trinomial into irreducible polynomials in $\Q[x]$ of degrees $n_1$, $n_2$,...,$n_k$, ordered so that $n_1 \leq n_2 \leq…

We define generalized bivariate polynomials, from which upon specification of initial conditions the bivariate Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials are obtained. Using essentially a matrix approach we derive identities and inequalities that in…

In this paper we present a complete method for finding the roots of all polynomials of the form $\phi(z)=c_n z^n+c_{n-1} z^{n-1}+\dots+c_1 z+c_0$ over a given octonion division algebra. When $\phi(z)$ is monic we also consider the companion…

For relatively prime natural numbers $a$ and $b$, we study the two equations $ax+by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax+by+1= (a-1)(b-1)/2$, which arise from the study of cyclotomic polynomials. Previous work showed that exactly one equation has a…

Suppose $A=\{a_1,\ldots,a_{n+2}\}\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ has cardinality $n+2$, with all the coordinates of the $a_j$ having absolute value at most $d$, and the $a_j$ do not all lie in the same affine hyperplane. Suppose $F=(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$…

This work is divided into three parts. The first part concerns polynomials in one variable with all real roots. We consider linear transformations that preserve real rootedness, as well as matrices that preserve interlacing. The second part…
