We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…
In this paper, we present a new method for computing bounded-degree factors of lacunary multivariate polynomials. In particular for polynomials over number fields, we give a new algorithm that takes as input a multivariate polynomial f in…
We obtain new upper bounds on the number of distinct roots of lacunary polynomials over finite fields. Our focus will be on polynomials for which there is a large gap between consecutive exponents in the monomial expansion.
We investigate $k$-superirreducible polynomials, by which we mean irreducible polynomials that remain irreducible under any polynomial substitution of positive degree at most $k$. Let $\mathbb F$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. We…
We count the number of irreducible polynomials in several variables of a given degree over a finite field. The results are expressed in terms of a generating series, an exact formula and an asymptotic approximation. We also consider the…
Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…
We study the probability distribution of the number of zeros of multivariable polynomials with bounded degree over a finite field. We find the probability generating function for each set of bounded degree polynomials. In particular, in the…
We estimate the fraction of isogeny classes of abelian varieties over a finite field which have a given characteristic polynomial P(T) modulo l. As an application we find the proportion of isogeny classes of abelian varieties with a…
We investigate degree bounds for fields of rational invariants of representations of finite groups. We prove many cases of a bound for $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ conjectured by Blum-Smith, Garcia, Hidalgo, and Rodriguez. For arbitrary groups,…
The paper is devoted to produce infinite sequences of $k$-normal polynomials $F_{u}(x)\in \mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ of degrees $np^{u} ~ (u\geq 0)$, for a suitably chosen initial $k$-normal polynomial $F_{0}(x)\in \mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ of degree $n$…
In this paper, we give some counting results on integer polynomials of fixed degree and bounded height whose distinct non-zero roots are multiplicatively dependent. These include sharp lower bounds, upper bounds and asymptotic formulas for…
This work is a study of polynomial compositions having a fixed number of terms. We outline a recursive method to describe these characterizations, give some particular results and discuss the general case. In the final sections, some…
We study degree bounds on rational but not necessarily polynomial generators for the field $\mathbf{k}(V)^G$ of rational invariants of a linear action of a finite abelian group. We show that lattice-theoretic methods used recently by the…
We prove bounds for the absolute sum of all level-$k$ Fourier coefficients for $(-1)^{p(x)}$, where polynomial $p:\mathbf{F}_2^n \to \mathbf{F}_2$ is of degree $1$ or degree $2$.
We obtain tight bounds for the minimal number of generators of an ideal with bounded-degree generators in a polynomial ring $K[X_1,\dots,X_n],$ as well as a sharp quantification of the maximum possible size of a minimal generating set of…
Given a set $\Gamma$ of low-degree k-dimensional varieties in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that for any $D \ge 1$, there is a non-zero polynomial $P$ of degree at most $D$ so that each component of $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus Z(P)$ intersects…
For any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ and any positive integer $n$ we count the number of monic polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with nonzero constant coefficient and a self-reciprocal factor of any specified degree. An application…
We consider the zeros of the sum of independent random polynomials as their degrees tend to infinity. Namely, let $p$ and $q$ be two independent random polynomials of degree $n$, whose roots are chosen independently from the probability…
This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "deficient" sequence of multivariate polynomials. We consider two types of varieties: ideal-theoretic complete intersections and absolutely…
We give sufficient conditions under which a polyanalytic polynomial of degree $n$ has (i) at least one zero, and (ii) finitely many zeros. In the latter case, we prove that the number of zeros is bounded by $n^2$. We then show that for all…
