We note that the recent polynomial proofs of the spherical and complex plank covering problems by Zhao and Ortega-Moreno give some general information on zeros of real and complex polynomials restricted to the unit sphere. As a corollary of…
We study the problem of decomposing a polynomial $p$ into a sum of $r$ squares by minimizing a quadratically penalized objective $f_p(\mathbf{u}) = \left\lVert \sum_{i=1}^r u_i^2 - p\right\lVert^2$. This objective is nonconvex and is…
We study the quantitative relationship between the cones of nonnegative polynomials, cones of sums of squares and cones of sums of powers of linear forms. We derive bounds on the volumes (raised to the power reciprocal to the ambient…
A polynomial is a direct sum if it can be written as a sum of two non-zero polynomials in some distinct sets of variables, up to a linear change of variables. We analyze criteria for a homogeneous polynomial to be decomposable as a direct…

We present a new viewpoint (namely, reproducing kernels) and new proofs for several recent results of J. Geronimo and H. Woerdeman on orthogonal polynomials on the two dimenional torus (and related subjects). In addition, we show how their…
Gelfond and Khovanskii found a formula for the sum of the values of a Laurent polynomial at the zeros of a system of n Laurent polynomials in the complex n-torus whose Newton polyhedra have generic mutual positions. An exponential change of…
We discuss existence of explicit search bounds for zeros of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. Our main result is a theorem about the existence of polynomial zeros of small height over the field of algebraic numbers outside of…
We prove some new results about the spacing between neighboring zeros of paraorthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. Our methods also provide new proofs of some existing results. The main tool we will use is a formula for the phase of…
In this short note, for each non-zero integer n, we construct a 4-manifold containing a smoothly concordant pair of spheres with a common dual of square n but no automorphism carrying one sphere to the other. Our examples, besides showing…
We study sums of Dirichlet characters over polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ with a prescribed number of irreducible factors. Our main results are explicit formulae for these sums in terms of zeros of Dirichlet L-functions. We also exhibit…
The classical Hurwitz theorem says that if n first "harmonics" (2n + 1 Fourier coefficients) of a continuous function f(x) on the unit circle are zero, then f(x) changes sign at least 2n + 1 times. We show that similar facts and its…
We study dimensions of the faces of the cone of nonnegative polynomials and the cone of sums of squares; we show that there are dimensional differences between corresponding faces of these cones. These dimensional gaps occur in all cases…
We derive the Hasse principle and weak approximation for pencils of certain varieties in the spirit of work by Colliot-Th\'el\`ene,Sansuc and Harpaz-Skorobogatov-Wittenberg. Our varieties are defined through polynomials in many variables…
In this paper, we consider a variant of Tur\'an's problem on the distance from an integer polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ to the nea\-rest irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$. We prove that for any polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$,…
A well-known theorem of Quillen says that if $r(z,\bar{z})$ is a bihomogeneous polynomial on ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ positive on the sphere, then there exists $d$ such that $r(z,\bar{z}){\lVert z \rVert}^{2d}$ is a squared norm. We obtain…
This paper presents a nonnegative polynomial that cannot be represented with nonnegative coefficients in the simplicial Bernstein basis by subdividing the standard simplex. The example shows that Bernstein Theorem cannot be extended to…
