A class P_{n,m,p}(x) of polynomials is defined. The combinatorial meaning of its coefficients is given. Chebyshev polynomials are the special cases of P_{n,m,p}(x). It is first shown that P_{n,m,p}(x) may be expressed in terms of…
In an isomorphic copy of the ring of symmetric polynomials we study some families of polynomials which are indexed by rational weight vectors. These families include well known symmetric polynomials, such as the elementary, homogeneous, and…
The direct or algorithmic approach for the Jacobian problem, consisting of the direct construction of the inverse polynomials is proposed. The so called principle and derived Jacobi conditions are proposed and discussed. The algorithmic…
A polynomial transformation of the real plane $\Bbb R^2$ is a mapping $\Bbb R^2\to\Bbb R^2$ given by two polynomials of two variables. Such a transformation is called cubic if the degrees of its polynomials are not greater than three. It…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field with an absolute value. This note gives an elementary proof of the classical result that the roots of a polynomial with coefficients in $K$ are continuous functions of the coefficients of the…
In this paper, we give sharp upper and lower bounds for the number of degenerate monic (and arbitrary, not necessarily monic) polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree $n \ge 2$ and height bounded by $H \ge 2$. The polynomial is…
In this paper, we study slices of the parameter space of cubic polynomials, up to affine conjugacy, given by a fixed value of the multiplier at a non-repelling fixed point. In particular, we study the location of the $main\, cubioid$ in…
We say that a monic polynomial $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ of degree $N\ge 2$ is monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb…
It is an open question whether the fractional parts of nonlinear polynomials at integers have the same fine-scale statistics as a Poisson point process. Most results towards an affirmative answer have so far been restricted to almost sure…
We give two determinantal representations for a bivariate polynomial. They may be used to compute the zeros of a system of two of these polynomials via the eigenvalues of a two-parameter eigenvalue problem. The first determinantal…
We consider polynomials with integer coefficients and discuss their factorization properties in Z[[x]], the ring of formal power series over Z. We treat polynomials of arbitrary degree and give sufficient conditions for their reducibility…
The well-known mathematical instrument for detection common roots for pairs of polynomials and multiple roots of polynomials are resultants and discriminants. For a pair of polynomials $f$ and $g$ their resultant $R(f,g)$ is a function of…
I investigate on the number t of real eigenvectors of a real symmetric tensor. In particular, given a homogeneous polynomial f of degree d in 3 variables, i prove that t is greater or equal than 2c+1, if d is odd and t is greater or equal…
A unitary cyclotomic polynomial of order three is a polynomial of the form \[ \Phi^*_{PQR}(x)=\frac{(x^{PQR}-1)(x^P-1)(x^Q-1)(x^R-1)}{(x^{PQ}-1)(x^{QR}-1)(x^{RP}-1)(x-1)}, \] where $P$, $Q$ and $R$ are powers of three distinct primes $p$,…
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
We establish new results on root separation of integer, irreducible polynomials of degree at least four. These improve earlier bounds of Bugeaud and Mignotte (for even degree) and of Beresnevich, Bernik, and Goetze (for odd degree).
A fundamental problem in the theory of linearized and projective polynomials over finite fields is to characterize the number of roots in the coefficient field directly from the coefficients. We prove results of this type, of a recursive…
By the construction of suitable graphs and the determination of their chromatic polynomials, we resolve two open questions concerning real chromatic roots. First we exhibit graphs for which the Beraha number $B_{10} = (5 + \sqrt{5})/2$ is a…

The most frequently asked question in the $p-$adic lattice models of statistical mechanics is that whether a root of a polynomial equation belongs to domains $\mathbb{Z}_p^{*}, \ \mathbb{Z}_p\setminus\mathbb{Z}_p^{*}, \ \mathbb{Z}_p, \…
