Suppose $(M,g)$ is a Riemannian manifold having dimension $n$, nonnegative Ricci curvature, maximal volume growth and unique tangent cone at infinity. In this case, the tangent cone at infinity $C(X)$ is an Euclidean cone over the…

Using the cyclotomic identity we compute sums over d-tuples of monic polynomials in F_q[x] weighted by the multiplicity of their irreducible factors. As consequences we determine explicit expressions for the number of d-tuples of…

For a function field $K$ and fixed polynomial $F\in K[x]$ and varying $f\in F$ (under certain restrictions) we give a lower bound for the degree of the greatest prime divisor of $F(f)$ in terms of the height of $f$, establishing a strong…

Let $\Pi$ be a projective plane of order $n$ and $\Gamma_{\Pi}$ be its Levi graph (the point-line incidence graph). For fixed $k \geq 3$, let $c_{2k}(\Gamma_{\Pi})$ denote the number of $2k$-cycles in $\Gamma_{\Pi}$. In this paper we show…

This paper is our third step towards developing a theory of testing monomials in multivariate polynomials and concentrates on two problems: (1) How to compute the coefficients of multilinear monomials; and (2) how to find a maximum…

Cilleruelo conjectured that for an irreducible polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ of degree $d \geq 2$, denoting $$L_f(N)=\mathrm{lcm}(f(1),f(2),\ldots f(N))$$ one has $$\log L_f(n)\sim(d-1)N\log N.$$ He proved it in the case $d=2$ but it…

A $3$-dimensional polytope $P$ is $k$-equiprojective when the projection of $P$ along any line that is not parallel to a facet of $P$ is a polygon with $k$ vertices. In 1968, Geoffrey Shephard asked for a description of all equiprojective…

We show that for fixed $d>3$ and $n$ growing to infinity there are at least $(n!)^{d-2 \pm o(1)}$ different labeled combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices. This is about the square of the previous best lower bounds. As an…

The $k$-higher Mahler measure of a nonzero polynomial $P$ is the integral of $\log^k|P|$ on the unit circle. In this note, we consider Lehmer's question (which is a long-standing open problem for $k=1$) for $k>1$ and find some interesting…

A 3-dimensional polytope is called k-equiprojective if every planar projection along a direction non-parallel to any facet is a k-gon. In this article, we generalise equiprojectivity to higher dimensions and give a lower bound on the number…

In this paper, for positive integers $H$ and $k \leq n$, we obtain some estimates on the cardinality of the set of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ and height bounded by $H$ with exactly $k$ roots of maximal modulus. These include…

Let a(n,k) be the kth coefficient of the nth cyclotomic polynomial. The first two authors showed in part I that if m is a prime power and n and k range over the non-negative integers, then a(mn,k) assumes every integer value. Here this…

We consider absolutely irreducible polynomials $f \in Z[x,y]$ with $\deg_x(f)=m$, $\deg_y(f)=n$ and height $H$. We show that for any prime $p$ with $p>c_{mn} H^{2mn+n-1}$ the reduction $f \bmod p$ is also absolutely irreducible. Furthermore…

Taking a combinatorial point of view on cyclotomic polynomials leads to a larger class of polynomials we shall call the inclusion-exclusion polynomials. This gives a more appropriate setting for certain types of questions about the…

We provide the existence of new degree growths in the context of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^k$: if $k$ is an integer $\geq 3$, then for any $\ell\leq \left[\frac{k-1}{2}\right]$ there exist polynomial automorphisms $f$ of…

Let l>=1 be an arbitrary odd integer and p,q and r primes. We show that there exist infinitely many ternary cyclotomic polynomials \Phi_{pqr}(x) with l^2+3l+5<= p<q<r such that the set of coefficients of each of them consists of the p…

Let $q=p^n$, $r\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 2}$, $e=q-1$, and $k=\frac{q^r-1}{e}$. In this paper, we study the cyclotomic numbers $(a,b)_{q-1}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^r}$. We prove that $(a,b)_{q-1}\le \left\lceil \frac{k}{2}\right\rceil$ for all $0\le…

Consider a logharmonic polynomial; that is, a product of the form $p(z)\overline{q(z)}$, where $p$, $q$ are holomorphic polynomials. Assume $q$ is linear and denote by $n$ the degree of $p$. It was recently shown in arXiv:2302.04339…

Define the $n$-th fibotomic polynomial to be the product of the monic irredicible factors of the $n$-th Fibonacci polynomial which are not factors of any Fibonacci polynomial of smaller degree. In this paper, we prove a number of properties…

In this article we prove an upper bound for a Hilbert polynomial on quaternionic Kaehler manifolds of positive scalar curvature. As corollaries we obtain bounds on the quaternionic volume and the degree of the associated twistor space.…
