Let F,G in C[x_1,...,x_n] be two polynomials in n variables x_1,...,x_n over the complex numbers field C. In this paper, we prove that if the degree of the Poisson bracket [F,G] is small enough then there are strict constraints for…

Let $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ be a monic polynomial of degree $N$ that is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$. We say $f(x)$ is \emph{monogenic} if $\Theta=\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers ${\mathbb…

Let $p$ be a prime. Given a polynomial in $\F_{p^m}[x]$ of degree $d$ over the finite field $\F_{p^m}$, one can view it as a map from $\F_{p^m}$ to $\F_{p^m}$, and examine the image of this map, also known as the value set. In this paper,…

Blickle, Musta\c{t}\u{a} and Smith proposed two conjectures on the limits of $F$-pure thresholds. One conjecture asks whether or not the limit of a sequence of $F$-pure thresholds of principal ideals on regular local rings of fixed…

We prove the finiteness of relative log pluricanonical representations in the complex analytic setting. As an application, we discuss the abundance conjecture for semi-log canonical pairs within this framework. Furthermore, we establish the…

We introduce a collection of polynomials $F_N$, associated to each positive integer $N$, whose divisibility properties yield a reformulation of the Goldbach conjecture. While this reformulation certainly does not lead to a resolution of the…

Let $F\in\mathbb{Z}[x,y]$ and $m\ge2$ be an integer. A set $A\subset \mathbb{Z}$ is called an $(F,m)$-Diophantine set if $F(a,b)$ is a perfect $m$-power for any $a,b\in A$ where $a\ne b$. If $F$ is a bivariate polynomial for which there…

\emph{Canonical (logic) programs} (CP) refer to normal logic programs augmented with connective $not\ not$. In this paper we address the question of whether CP are \emph{succinctly incomparable} with \emph{propositional formulas} (PF). Our…

We present the formula for the number of monic irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$ where the coefficients of $x^{n-1}$ and $x$ vanish for $n\ge3$. In particular, we give a relation between rational…

In this note, we derive a formula for the F-pure threshold of diagonal hypersurfaces over a perfect field of prime characteristic. We also calculate the associated test ideal at the F-pure threshold, and give formulas for higher jumping…

Fix a prime $p\geq 11$. We show that there exists a positive integer $m$ such that any subset of $\mathbb{F}_p^n\times\mathbb{F}_p^n$ containing no nontrivial configurations of the form $(x,y),(x,y+z),(x,y+2z),(x+z,y)$ must have density…

Given $k\in N$, a nonnegative function $f\in C^r[a,b]$, $r\ge 0$, an arbitrary finite collection of points $\big\{\alpha_i\big\}_{i\in J} \subset [a,b]$, and a corresponding collection of nonnegative integers $\big\{m_i\big\}_{i\in J}$ with…

Consider a polynomial $F$ in $m$ variables and a finite point ensemble $S=S_1 \times ... \times S_m$. When given the leading monomial of $F$ with respect to a lexicographic ordering we derive improved information on the possible number of…

We prove that if Y is a hypersurface of degree d in P^n with isolated singularities, then the log canonical threshold of (P^n,Y) is at least min{n/d,1}. Moreover, if d is at least n+1, then we have equality if and only if Y is the…

We consider the equation $P(Q(x_1,\ldots,x_\nu))=Q(P(x_1),\ldots,P(x_\nu))$ in polynomials over the field of complex numbers and prove that if ${\rm deg}(P)>1$, then it is only solvable in polynomials that are affinely conjugate to…

Let $F$ be a homogeneous polynomial in $S = \mathbb{C}[x_0,...,x_n]$. Our goal is to understand a particular polynomial decomposition of $F$; geometrically, we wish to determine when the hypersurface defined by $F$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$…

We consider the polynomials $\displaystyle f(x)=x^d+c$, where $d\ge 2$ and $c\in\mathbb Q$. It is conjectured that if $d=2$, then $f$ has no rational periodic point of exact period $N\ge 4$. In this note, fixing some integer $d\ge 2$, we…

The paper considers a global version of the notion of log canonical threshold for plurisubharmonic functions $u$ of logarithmic growth in $\mathbb{C}^n$, aiming at description of the range of all $p>0$ such that $e^{-u}\in…

Suppose that some polynomial $f$ with rational coefficients takes only natural values at natural numbers, i.e., $L=\{f(n)\mid n\in \mathbb N\}\subset\mathbb N$. We show that the base-$q$ representation of $L$ is a context-free language if…

This paper studies polynomials with core entropy zero. We give several characterizations of polynomials with core entropy zero. In particular, we show that a degree d post-critically finite polynomial f has core entropy zero if and only if…
