We utilize the same technique as in [arXiv:2205.04254 (2022)] to provide some representations of polynomials non-negative on a basic semi-algebraic set, defined by polynomial inequalities, under more general conditions. Based on each…
A polynomial with coefficients in the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{K}$ of a global field $K$ is called intersective if it has a root modulo every finite-indexed subgroup of $\mathcal{O}_{K}$. We prove two criteria for a polynomial…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, $F:=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ and $F^{\operatorname{sep}}$ a separable closure of $F$. Set $A$ to denote the polynomial ring $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a non-zero prime ideal of…
Let $K$ be a number field and $f\in K[X]$ an irreducible monic polynomial with coefficients in $O_K$, the ring of integers of $K$. We aim to enounce an effective criterion, in terms of the Galois group of $f$ over $K$ and a linear…
We consider the tensor product of modules over the polynomial algebra corresponding to the usual tensor product of linear operators. We present a general description of the representation ring in case the ground field k is perfect. It is…
We initiate a systematic study of nonnegative polynomials $P$ such that $P^k$ is not a sum of squares for any odd $k\geq 1$, calling such $P$ \emph{stubborn}. We develop a new invariant of a real isolated zero of a nonnegative polynomial in…
For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…
We provide a representation in terms of certain canonical functions for a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weight that is strictly positive and analytic on the unit circle. These formulas yield a complete asymptotic…

We study the boundary of the cone of real polynomials that can be decomposed as a sum of squares (SOS) of real polynomials. This cone is included in the cone of nonnegative polynomials and both cones share a part of their boundary, which…
Let $X$ be a normal algebraic variety over a finitely generated field $k$ of characteristic zero, and let $\ell$ be a prime. Say that a continuous $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of $\pi_1^{\text{\'et}}(X_{\bar k})$ is arithmetic if there…
Let $K[HK_{\Theta}]$ denote the Hecke-Kiselman algebra of a finite oriented graph $\Theta$ over an algebraically closed field $K$. All irreducible representations, and the corresponding maximal ideals of $K[HK_{\Theta}]$, are characterized…
Let $f:\mathbb{K}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{K}^m$ be a generically finite polynomial map of degree $d$ between affine spaces. In arXiv:1411.5011 we proved that if $\mathbb{K}$ is the field of complex or real numbers, then the set $S_f$ of points…

Assessing non-negativity of multivariate polynomials over the reals, through the computation of {\em certificates of non-negativity}, is a topical issue in polynomial optimization. This is usually tackled through the computation of {\em…

Regarding polynomial functions on a subset $S$ of a non-commutative ring $R$, that is, functions induced by polynomials in $R[x]$ (whose variable commutes with the coefficients), we show connections between, on one hand, sets $S$ such that…
Let $\K=\C$, or $\R$, and $S_f$ be the set of points in $\K^n$ at which a polynomial map $f:\K^n\rightarrow\K^n$ is non-proper. Jelonek proved that $S_f$ is a semi-algebraic set that is ruled by polynomial curves, with $\dim S_f\leq n-1$,…
