According to work of Hartley and Kawauchi in 1979 and 1980, the Conway Polynomial of all negative amphicheiral knots and strongly positive amphicheiral knots factors as $\phi(z)\phi(-z)$ for some $\phi(z)\in\mathbb Z[z]$. Moreover, a 2012…
A connected component of an affine algebraic group is called periodic if all its elements have finite order. We give a characterization of periodic components in terms of automorphisms with finite number of fixed points. It is also…
Qazaqzeh and Chbili showed that for any quasi-alternating link, the degree of $Q$-polynomial is less than its determinant. We give a refinement of their evaluation.
The following criterion is proved in this paper. If the Alexander polynomial of a knot $K\subset S^3$ has a zero of odd order on the complex unit circle, then there exists a continuous family of irreducible representations…
With the long-term goal of proving local structure theorems of algebraic stacks in positive characteristic near points with reductive (but possibly non-linearly reductive) stabilizer, we conjecture that quotient stacks of the form…
We relate the geometry of the resonance varieties associated to a commutative differential graded algebra model of a space to the finiteness properties of the completions of its Alexander-type invariants. We also describe in simple…
The paper studies the question of existence of polynomials with given roots over associative non-commutative rings with identity. It is shown that in the case of an associative division ring for arbitrary n elements of this ring there…
We discuss meridians and longitudes in reduced Alexander modules of classical and virtual links. When these elements are suitably defined, each link component will have many meridians, but only one longitude. Enhancing the reduced Alexander…
We investigate algebraic and arithmetic properties of a class of sequences of sparse polynomials that have binomial coefficients both as exponents and as coefficients. In addition to divisibility and irreducibility results we also consider…
Assuming an integral quadratic polynomial with nonsingular quadratic part has a nontrivial zero on an integer lattice outside of a union of finite-index sublattices, we prove that there exists such a zero of bounded norm and provide an…
Take finitely many topological spaces and for each pair of these spaces choose a pair of corresponding closed subspaces that are identified by a homeomorpism. We note that this gluing procedure does not guarantee that the building pieces,…
We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…
In an earlier work [K. Castillo et al., J. Math. Anal. Appl., 514 (2022) 126358], we give positive answer to the first, and apparently more easy, part of a conjecture of M. Ismail concerning the characterization of the continuous $q$-Jacobi…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integer to be the signature of a (4q-1)-knot in the (4q+1)-sphere with a given square-free Alexander polynomial.
A basic finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ is isomorphic to a quotient of a tensor algebra by an admissible ideal. The category of left modules over the algebra is isomorphic to the category of representations…
We contribute to the exceptional APN conjecture by showing that no polynomial of degree m = 2 r (2 {\ell} + 1) where gcd(r, {\ell}) 2, r 2, {\ell} 1 with a nonzero second leading coefficient can be APN over infinitely many extensions of the…
In this paper we give an explicit formula for the twisted Alexander polynomial of any torus link and show that it is a locally constant function on the $SL(2, \mathbb C)$-character variety. We also discuss similar things for the higher…
For a finite set of non-zero natural numbers that contains at least one element different from 1 and the least common multiple of any of its subsets, there exists a subset of at least half of its members which has a common divisor larger…
We show a certain existence of a lifting of modules under the self-$\mathrm{Ext}^2$-vanishing condition over the "derived quotient" by using the notion of higher algebra. This refines a work of Auslander-Ding-Solberg's solution of the…
We give sharp lower bounds for the degree of the syzygies involving the partial derivatives of a homogeneous polynomial defining a nodal hypersurface. The result gives information on the position of the singularities of a nodal hypersurface…
