We present a Galois theory of difference equations designed to measure the differential dependencies among solutions of linear difference equations. With this we are able to reprove Hoelder's Theorem that the Gamma function satisfies no…

A quasi-ordinary polynomial is a monic polynomial with coefficients in the power series ring such that its discriminant equals a monomial up to unit. In this paper we study higher derivatives of quasi-ordinary polynomials, also called…

We define tests of boolean functions which distinguish between linear (or quadratic) polynomials, and functions which are very far, in an appropriate sense, from these polynomials. The tests have optimal or nearly optimal trade-offs between…

In 2012, for any integer $n \ge 2$, Kedlaya constructed an infinite class of monic irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ with integer coefficients having squarefree discriminants. Such polynomials are necessarily monogenic. Further, by…

An infinite sequence $\langle{u_n}\rangle_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ of real numbers is holonomic (also known as P-recursive or P-finite) if it satisfies a linear recurrence relation with polynomial coefficients. Such a sequence is said to be…

Let f be a square-free polynomial in Fq[t][x] where Fq is a field of q elements. We view f as a polynomial in the variable x with coefficients in the ring Fq[t]. We study squarefree values of f in sparse subsets of Fq[t] which are given by…

Solutions obtained by the quasilinearization method (QLM) are compared with the WKB solutions. While the WKB method generates an expansion in powers of h, the quasilinearization method (QLM) approaches the solution of the nonlinear equation…

A \emph{quasi-polynomial} is a function defined of the form $q(k) = c_d(k) k^d + c_{d-1}(k) k^{d-1} + ... + c_0(k)$, where $c_0, c_1, ..., c_d$ are periodic functions in $k \in \Z$. Prominent examples of quasi-polynomials appear in…

This paper studies the singularities of Cullen-regular functions of one quaternionic variable. The quaternionic Laurent series prove to be Cullen-regular. The singularities of Cullen-regular functions are thus classified as removable,…

We discuss two surprising properties of a family of polynomials that generalize the Mahonian $q$-Catalan polynomials, and more generally the $q$-Schr\"oder polynomials. By interpreting them as $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-characters, we show that the…

Let $Q\in \K[x_1,...,x_n] = S$ be a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$. The freeness of the logarithmic derivation module, $D(Q)$, and of its natural generalizations, has been widely studied. In the free case, $D(Q) \simeq…

Let $K$ be a number field of degree $n$ with ring of integers $O_K$. By means of a criterion of Gilmer for polynomially dense subsets of the ring of integers of a number field, we show that, if $h\in K[X]$ maps every element of $O_K$ of…

While it is known that there is at most a polynomial separation between quantum query complexity and the polynomial degree for total functions, the precise relationship between the two is not clear for partial functions. In this paper, we…

We apply Rossi's half-plane version of Borel's Theorem to study the zero distribution of linear combinations of $\mathcal{A}$-entire functions (Theorem 1.2). This provides a unified way to study linear $q$-difference, difference and…

In this paper we prove that the PDE $p(D)f=q,$ where $p$ and $q$ are multivariate polynomials, has a solution in the space of polynomials of total degree not exceeding ${n+s},$ where $n$ is the degree of $q$ and $s$ is the zero order of…

The purpose of this paper is to present a systemic study of some families of multiple q-Genocchi and euler numbers by using multivariate q-Volkenborn integral. From the studies of those q-Genocchi numbers and polynomials of higher order we…

The aim of this paper is to derive (by using two operators, representable by a Jacobi matrix) a family of q-orthogonal polynomials, which turn to be dual to alternative q-Charlier polynomials. A discrete orthogonality relation and a…

In this paper we prove a $q$-analogue of Koshy's formula in terms of the Narayana polynomial due to Lassalle and a $q$-analogue of Koshy's formula in terms of $q$-hypergeometric series due to Andrews by applying the inclusion-exclusion…

We establish that the sequences formed by logarithms and by "fractional" powers of integers, as well as the sequence of prime numbers, are non-holonomic, thereby answering three open problems of Gerhold [Electronic Journal of Combinatorics…
