Given a polynomial with integral coefficients, one can inquire about the possible residues it can take in its image modulo a prime $p$. The sum over the distinct residues can sometimes be computed independent of the prime $p$; for example,…
The real type of a finite family of univariate polynomials characterizes the combined sign behavior of the polynomials over the real line. We derive an explicit formula for the number of real types subject to given degree bounds. For the…
We present a deterministic algorithm which computes the multilinear factors of multivariate lacunary polynomials over number fields. Its complexity is polynomial in $\ell^n$ where $\ell$ is the lacunary size of the input polynomial and $n$…
We introduce the notion of semi-characteristic polynomial for a semi-linear map of a finite- dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic p. This polynomial has some properties in common with the classical characteristic…
In the present paper we consider $F_k(x)=x^{k}-\sum_{t=0}^{k-1}x^t,$ the characteristic polynomial of the $k$-th order Fibonacci sequence, the latter denoted $G(k,l).$ We determine the limits of the real roots of certain odd and even degree…
Let $p(z)=a_0+a_1z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots+a_nz^n$ be a polynomial of degree $n,$ where the coefficients $a_j,$ $j \in \{0,1,2,\cdots n\},$ may be complex. We impose some restriction on the coefficients of the real part of the given polynomial…
Let $K$ be a number field. We show that, up to allowing a finite set of denominators in the partial quotients, it is possible to define algorithms for $\mathfrak P$-adic continued fractions satisfying the finiteness property on $K$ for…
We present a new algorithm for the computation of the irreducible factors of degree at most $d$, with multiplicity, of multivariate lacunary polynomials over fields of characteristic zero. The algorithm reduces this computation to the…
In this note, we provide a wide range of upper bounds for the moduli of the zeros of a complex polynomial. The obtained bounds complete a series of previous papers on the location of zeros of polynomials.
For a mixed characteristic complete discrete valuation field $K$ which contains a $p^n$-th root of unity, we determine the graded quotients of the filtration on the Milnor $K$-groups $K_q^M(K)$ modulo $p^n$ in terms of differential forms of…
We consider polynomial equations, or systems of polynomial equations, with integer coefficients, modulo prime numbers $p$. We offer an elementary approach based on a counting method. The outcome is a weak form of the Lang-Weil lower bound…
We give a formula and an estimation for the number of irreducible polynomials in two (or more) variables over a finite field.
We give bounds for the number and the size of the primes $p$ such that a reduction modulo $p$ of a system of multivariate polynomials over the integers with a finite number $T$ of complex zeros, does not have exactly $T$ zeros over the…
We consider natural Hamiltonian systems of $n>1$ degrees of freedom with polynomial homogeneous potentials of degree $k$. We show that under a genericity assumption, for a fixed $k$, at most only a finite number of such systems is…
Scattered polynomials over finite fields attracted an increasing attention in the last years. One of the reasons is their deep connection with Maximum Rank Distance (MRD) codes. Known classification results for exceptional scattered…
Linear recursions of degree $k$ are determined by evaluating the sequence of Generalized Fibonacci Polynomials, $\{F_{k,n}(t_1,...,t_k)\}$ (isobaric reflects of the complete symmetric polynomials) at the integer vectors $(t_1,...,t_k)$. If…
We study an infinite class of sequences of sparse polynomials that have binomial coefficients both as exponents and as coefficients. This generalizes a sequence of sparse polynomials which arises in a natural way as graph theoretic…
We show that the proportion of polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field with $q$ elements, which have a divisor of every degree below $n$, is given by $c_q n^{-1} + O(n^{-2})$. More generally, we give an asymptotic formula for the…
We obtain a sharp bound on the degree of a globally generated vector bundle over a reduced irreducible projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. As an application, we obtain a Del Pezzo-Bertini…
It is proved that the universal degree bound for separating polynomial invariants of a finite abelian group (in non-modular characteristic) is strictly smaller than the universal degree bound for generators of polynomial invariants, unless…
