Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…

For a finite subset $I$ of positive integers, the descent polynomial $\mathcal{D}(I;n)$ counts the number of permutations in $S_n$ that have descent set $I$. We generalize descent polynomials by considering permutations with a specific…

We prove the following statement. Let $f\in\mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$, for some $d\ge 3$, and assume that $f$ depends non-trivially in each of $x_1,\ldots,x_d$. Then one of the following holds. (i) For every finite sets…

The object of this paper is to generalize a theorem on the binomial coefficient [4] to the case in an arithmetic progression. We will also give a slightly stronger result than Langevin's [2].

Assuming that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) holds, we prove an explicit formula for the number of representations of an integer as a sum of $k\geq 5$ primes. Our error terms in such a formula improve by some logarithmic factors…

The Fibonacci polynomials are defined recursively as $f_{n}(x)=xf_{n-1}(x)+f_{n-2}(x)$, where $f_0(x) = 0$ and $f_1(x)= 1$. We generalize these polynomials to an arbitrary number of variables with the $r$-Fibonacci polynomial. We extend…

In 1954 it was proved if f is infinitely differentiable in the interval I and some derivative (of order depending on x) vanishes at each x, then f is a polynomial. Later it was generalized for multi-variable case. In this paper we give an…

Every polynomial of the form $P=(x+1)(x^{n-1}+c_1x^{n-2}+\cdots +c_{n-1})$ is representable as Schur-Szeg\H{o} composition of $n-1$ polynomials of the form $(x+1)^{n-1}(x+a_i)$, where the numbers $a_i$ are unique up to permutation. We give…

In this paper, we consider the following $(A, B)$-polynomial $f$ over finite field: $$f(x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_n)=x_0^Ah(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+g(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+P_B(1/x_0),$$ where $h$ is a Deligne polynomial of degree $d$, $g$ is an arbitrary…

We generalize some previous results on random polynomials in several complex variables. A standard setting is to consider random polynomials $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_jp_j(z)$ that are linear combinations of basis polynomials $\{p_j\}$…

In this paper, we give some determinantal and permanental representations of generalized bivariate Fibonacci p-polynomials by using various Hessenberg matrices. The results that we obtained are important since generalized bivariate…

It is known that if $f\colon {\mathbb R}^2 \to {\mathbb R}$ is a polynomial in each variable, then $f$ is a polynomial. We present generalizations of this fact, when ${\mathbb R}^2$ is replaced by $G\times H$, where $G$ and $H$ are…

It is proved that a certain symmetric sequence of nonnegative integers arising in the enumeration of magic squares of given size n by row sums or, equivalently, in the generating function of the Ehrhart polynomial of the polytope of doubly…

Let $G$ be a topological commutative semigroup with unit. We prove that a continuous function $f\colon G\to \cc$ is a generalized exponential polynomial if and only if there is an $n\ge 2$ such that $f(x_1 +\ldots +x_n )$ is decomposable;…

George Birkhoff proved in 1912 that the number of proper colorings of a finite graph G with n colors is a polynomial in n, called the chromatic polynomial of G. Read conjectured in 1968 that for any graph G, the sequence of absolute values…

We provide the first two examples of sets of generalized Riemann derivatives of orders up to $n$, $n\geq 2$, whose simultaneous existence for all functions~$f$ at~$x$ is equivalent to the existence of the $n$-th Peano derivative…

We first present a modern simple proof of the classical ergodic Birkhoff's theorem and Bourgain's homogeneous bilinear ergodic theorem. This proof used the simple fact that the shift map on integers has a simple Lebesgue spectrum. As a…

The paper extends Birkhoff's theorem on doubly stochastic matrices to some countable families of discrete probability spaces with nonempty intersections. We join every two elements lying in the same probability space by an edge and…

Let $K$ be a number field and $f_1,\ldots,f_s\in K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ forms of odd degrees. In 1957, Birch proved that if $n$ is sufficiently large then the forms always have a nontrivial zero in $K^n$. Apart from some small degrees, the…

Let $p$ be prime and $X$ be a Haar-random $n \times n$ matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$, the ring of $p$-adic integers. Let $P_{1}(t), \dots, P_{l}(t) \in \mathbb{Z}_{p}[t]$ be monic polynomials of degree at most $2$ whose images modulo $p$ are…
