We present probabilistic interpretations of solutions to semi-linear parabolic equations with polynomial nonlinearities in terms of the voting models on the genealogical trees of branching Brownian motion (BBM). These extend the connection…

In this paper we consider the following conjecture, proposed by Brian Alspach, concerning partial sums in finite cyclic groups: given a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}_n\setminus \{0\}$ of size $k$ such that $\sum_{z\in A} z\not= 0$, it is…

In 2009, Borcea and Br\"and\'en characterize all linear operators on multivariate polynomials which preserve the property of being non-vanishing (stable) on products of prescribed open circular regions. We give a representation theoretic…

Suppose that $\langle f_n \rangle$ is a sequence of polynomials, $\langle f_n^{(k)}(0)\rangle$ converges for every non-negative integer $k$, and that the limit is not $0$ for some $k$. It is shown that if all the zeros of $f_1, f_2, \dots$…

We present an elementary proof of a conjecture by I. Ra\c{s}a which is an inequality involving Bernstein basis polynomials and convex functions. It was affirmed in positive very recently by the use of stochastic convex orderings. Moreover,…

In this paper we study a particular class of polynomials. We study the distribution of their zeros, including the zeros of their derivatives as well as the interaction between this two. We prove a weak variant of the sendov conjecture in…

We study the action of a differential operator on Schubert polynomials. Using this action, we first give a short new proof of an identity of I. Macdonald (1991). We then prove a determinant conjecture of R. Stanley (2017). This conjecture…

Based on Jensen formulae and the second kind of Chebyshev polynomials, another proof is presented for an extension of a curious binomial identity due to Z. W. Sun and K. J. Wu.

In this paper we obtain some refinements of a well-known result of Enestr\"o-Kakeya concerning the bounds for the moduli of the zeros of polynomials with complex coefficients which improve upon some results due to Aziz and Mohammad, Govil…

Bessenrodt and Ono's work on additive and multiplicative properties of the partition function and DeSalvo and Pak's paper on the log-concavity of the partition function have generated many beautiful theorems and conjectures. In January…

It is well-known that polynomial versions of theorems of R\"odl and Nikiforov, as conjectured by Fox and Sudakov and Nguyen, Scott and Seymour imply the classical Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal conjecture. In this note, we prove that these three…

The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…

We develop a fractional extension of the classical binomial distribution and the associated Bernstein operator, formulated within the framework of the generalized binomial theorem (Hara and Hino [Bull.\ London Math.\ Soc. \textbf{42}…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove estimates for the variance of the real and imaginary part of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function in short intervals. We give three different formulations of these results. Assuming a…

We study the distribution of partial sums of Rademacher random multiplicative functions $(f(n))_n$ evaluated at polynomial arguments. We show that for a polynomial $P\in \mathbb Z[x]$ that is a product of at least two distinct linear…

We make progress on a conjecture of Cilleruelo on the growth of the least common multiple of consecutive values of an irreducible polynomial $f$ on the additional hypothesis that the polynomial be even. This strengthens earlier work of…

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…

I present a set of remarks related to joint works \cite{paper1},\cite{paper2},\cite{paper3},\cite{MMNO}. These are remarks about polynomials solutions and vertex operators, eigenproblem for polynomials and a remark related to the the…

We prove a version of the Extra-zero conjecture formulated by the first named author for p-adic L-functions associated to Rankin-Selberg convolutions of modular forms of the same weight. The novelty of this result is to provide strong…

We study the effect of finite difference operators of finite order on the distribution of zeros of polynomials and entire functions.
