In this paper, we study properties of polynomials over division rings. Moreover, we present formulas for finding roots of some polynomials

We address some questions concerning indecomposable polynomials and their spectrum. How does the spectrum behave via reduction or specialization, or via a more general ring morphism? Are the indecomposability properties equivalent over a…

This paper is concerned with certifying that a given point is near an exact root of an overdetermined or singular polynomial system with rational coefficients. The difficulty lies in the fact that consistency of overdetermined systems is…

We give efficient algorithms for finding power-sum decomposition of an input polynomial $P(x)= \sum_{i\leq m} p_i(x)^d$ with component $p_i$s. The case of linear $p_i$s is equivalent to the well-studied tensor decomposition problem while…

For any (real) algebraic variety $X$ in a Euclidean space $V$ endowed with a nondegenerate quadratic form $q$, we introduce a polynomial $\mathrm{EDpoly}_{X,u}(t^2)$ which, for any $u\in V$, has among its roots the distance from $u$ to $X$.…

We consider the following basic problem: given an $n$-variate degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$ with real coefficients, compute a unit vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ that maximizes $|f(x)|$. Besides its fundamental nature, this problem…

We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…

The bipartition polynomial of a graph is a generalization of many other graph polynomials, including the domination, Ising, matching, independence, cut, and Euler polynomial. We show in this paper that it is also a powerful tool for proving…

What is the maximum possible value of the lead coefficient of a degree $d$ polynomial $Q(x)$ if $|Q(1)|,|Q(2)|,\ldots,|Q(k)|$ are all less than or equal to one? More generally we write $L_{d,[x_k]}(x)$ for what we prove to be the unique…

We treat the following "polynomial moment problem": for a complex polynomial P(z) and distinct complex numbers a,b such that P(a)=P(b) to describe polynomials q(z)=Q'(z) orthogonal to all degrees of P(z) on the segment [a,b]. We show that…

We consider multilinear Littlewood polynomials, polynomials in $n$ variables in which a specified set of monomials $U$ have $\pm 1$ coefficients, and all other coefficients are $0$. We provide upper and lower bounds (which are close for $U$…

We give a polynomial time algorithm to decode multivariate polynomial codes of degree $d$ up to half their minimum distance, when the evaluation points are an arbitrary product set $S^m$, for every $d < |S|$. Previously known algorithms can…

Regarding non-unique factorization of integer-valued polynomials over a discrete valuation domain $(R,M)$ with finite residue field, it is known that there exist absolutely irreducible elements, that is, irreducible elements all of whose…

We attempt to quantify the exact proportion of monic $p$-adic polynomials of degree $n$ which are irreducible. We find an exact answer to this when $n$ is prime and $p \neq n$, and also when $n = 4$ and $p \neq 2$. Our answers are rational…

Motivated by questions from Ehrhart theory, we present new results on discrete equidecomposability. Two rational polygons $P$ and $Q$ are said to be discretely equidecomposable if there exists a piecewise affine-unimodular bijection…

Arthur Cohn's irreducibility criterion for polynomials with integer coefficients and its generalization connect primes to irreducibles, and integral bases to the variable $x$. As we follow this link, we find that these polynomials are ready…

In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…

The Waring Problem over polynomial rings asks how to decompose a homogeneous polynomial $p$ of degree $d$ as a finite sum of $d$-{th} powers of linear forms. In this work we give an algorithm to obtain a real Waring decomposition of any…

We prove two criteria for direct sum decomposability of homogeneous polynomials. For a homogeneous polynomial with a non-zero discriminant, we interpret direct sum decomposability of the polynomial in terms of factorization properties of…

The algorithms of Pan (1995) and(2002) approximate the roots of a complex univariate polynomial in nearly optimal arithmetic and Boolean time but require precision of computing that exceeds the degree of the polynomial. This causes…
