In this article, we introduce congruential Euler numbers, which are a further generalization of generalized Euler numbers. We prove the $p$-adic congruences of congruential Euler numbers, which include answers to a conjecture related to…

In this paper, we use Sakai's geometric framework to explore the profound interconnection between recurrence coefficients of the semiclassical Laguerre weight $w(x)=x^{\lambda}\mathrm{e}^{-x^2+sx}$, $x\in\mathbb{R}^+$, $\lambda>-1$,…

It is proved that the roots of the derivative of a polynomial with quaternionic coefficients belong to the union of the intersections of sets defined in terms of certain projections of a polynomial. The result strengthens the quaternion…

We prove that a solution of an elliptic operator with periodic coefficients behaves on large scales like an analytic function, in the sense of approximation by polynomials with periodic corrections. Equivalently, the constants in the…

We find new representations, in terms of constant terms of powers of Laurent polynomials, for all the 15 sporadic Ap{\'e}ry-like sequences discovered by Zagier, Almkvist-Zudilin and Cooper. The new representations lead to binomial…

Descent polynomials and peak polynomials, which enumerate permutations with given descent and peak sets respectively, have recently received considerable attention. We give several formulas for $q$-analogs of these polynomials which refine…

We show generic existence of power series a with complex coefficients a_n, such that the sequence of partial sums of a new power series where its coefficients b_n are functions of a_0, a_1, ..., a_n approximate every polynomial uniformly on…

In this article, we extend some results about algebra $A$ with the group of units $U(A)$ having a special polynomial identity, Laurent polynomial. And we present a new version of B. Hartley Conjecture with these identities.

We show that the coefficients of decomposition into an irreducible components of the tensor powers of level $r$ symmetric algebra of adjoint representation coincide with the Verlinder numbers. Also we construct (for $sl(2)) the…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $d \geq 1$ be an integer and $A$ be the algebra of square matrices of size $d$ over the field of order $p$. Let $P, Q \in A[x_1, \dots x_n]$ be polynomials in $n$ indeterminates with coefficients in $A$, such that…

Previous analyses of Laguerre's method have provided results on the convergence and properties of this popular method when applied to the polynomials $p_n(z)=z^n-1$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. While these analyses appear to provide a fairly complete…

We investigate deep composite polynomial approximations of continuous but non-differentiable functions with algebraic cusp singularities. The functions in focus consist of finitely many cusp terms of the form $|x-a_j|^{\alpha_j}$ with…

Based on a recursive factorisation technique we show how integrable difference equations give rise to recurrences which possess the Laurent property. We derive non-autonomous Somos-$k$ sequences, with $k=4,5$, whose coefficients are…

We study properties of constant coefficient Laurent biorthogonal polynomials using Riordan arrays. We give details of related orthogonal polynomials, and we explore relationships between the moments of these orthogonal polynomials, the…

In this paper we prove the strong $q$-log-convexity of the Eulerian polynomials of Coxeter groups using their exponential generating functions. Our proof is based on the theory of exponential Riordan arraya and a criterion for determining…

In their work, Serre and Swinnerton-Dyer study the congruence properties of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. We examine similar congruence properties, but for the coefficients of a modified Taylor expansion about a CM point…

In his striking 1995 paper, Borcherds found an infinite product expansion for certain modular forms with CM divisors. In particular, this applies to the Hilbert class polynomial of discriminant $-d$ evaluated at the modular $j$-function.…

Recurrence coefficients of semi-classical orthogonal polynomials (orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function $w$ such that $w'/w$ is a rational function) are shown to be solutions of non linear differential equations with respect…

For a given point P in the group of K-rational points E(K) of an elliptic curve, we consider the sequence of values (F_1(P),F_2(P),F_3(P),...) of the division polynomials of E at P. If K is a finite field, we prove that the sequence is…

It is well known that the Euler characteristic of the cohomology of a complex algebraic variety coincides with the Euler characteristic of its cohomology with compact support. An old result of G. Laumon asserts that a relative version of…
