Let G = (V;E) be a simple graph. We consider domination polynomial, matching polynomial and edge cover polynomial of G. Graphs which their polynomials have few roots can give sometimes a very surprising information about the structure of…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $1 \le t < d < p$ be integers, and let $S$ be a non-empty subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$. We establish that if a polynomial $P:\mathbb{F}_p^n \to \mathbb{F}_p$ with degree $d$ is such that the image $P(S^n)$ does not…

We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…

We study the map which sends vectors of polynomials into their Wronski determinants. This defines a projection map of a Grassmann variety which we call a Wronski map. Our main result is computation of degrees of the real Wronski maps.…

We investigate average gradient degree of normal random polynomials of fixed algebraic degree n. In particular, for polynomials of two variables, asymptotics of the average gradient degree for large values of n is determined.

Following the author's previous works, we continue to consider the problem of counting the number of affine conjugacy classes of polynomials of one complex variable when its unordered collection of holomorphic fixed point indices is given.…

New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…

This paper investigates the number of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ whose roots are all real and positive. We establish an asymptotic formula for the case of fixed trace by estimating the number of integer sequences satisfying…

We study the bifurcation values of real polynomial maps $f: \bR^{2n} \to \bR^2$ which reflect the lack of asymptotic regularity at infinity. We formulate real counterparts of some structure results which have been previously proved in case…

For certain polynomials we relate the number of roots inside the unit circle with the index of a non-degenerate isolated umbilic point on a real analytic surface in Euclidean 3-space. In particular, for $N>0$ we prove that for a certain…

In this paper, we give some results on closed polynomials and factorially closed polynomial in $n$ variables. In particular, we give a characterization of factorially closed polynomials in $n$ variables over an algebraically closed field…

We evaluate the number of monic polynomials (of arbitrary degree $N$) the zeros of which equal their coefficients when these are allowed to take arbitrary complex values. In the following, we call polynomials with this property {\em…

Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a polynomial with real coefficients. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…

We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…

We investigate the plane dynamical system given by the secant map applied to a polynomial $p$ having at least one multiple root of multiplicity $d>1$. We prove that the local dynamics around the fixed points associated to the roots of $p$…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^e$ elements, where $p$ is a prime and $e\geq 1$ is an integer. Let $\ell<n$ be two positive integers. Fix a monic polynomial $u(x)=x^n +u_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots +u_{\ell+1}x^{\ell+1} \in…

We provide a unified, elementary, topological approach to the classical results stating the continuity of the complex roots of a polynomial with respect to its coefficients, and the continuity of the coefficients with respect to the roots.…

In this note we prove that certain polynomial mappings $P_\mathfrak{g}^k(\mathbf{x}) \in \mathbf{Z}[\mathbf{x}]$ in $n$-variables obtained from simple complex Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of arbitrary rank $n \ge 1$, are exceptional.

It has been shown by Ibragimov and Zaporozhets [In Prokhorov and Contemporary Probability Theory (2013) Springer] that the complex roots of a random polynomial $G_n(z)=\sum_{k=0}^n\xi_kz^k$ with i.i.d. coefficients $\xi_0,\ldots,\xi_n$…
