In this paper, given two polynomials $f$ and $g$ of one variable and a $0$-cycle $C$ of $f$, we consider the deformation $f+\epsilon g$. We define two functions: the displacement function $\Delta(t,\epsilon)$ and its first order…
We study the analogue of the classical infinitesimal center problem in the plane, but for zero cycles. We define the displacement function in this context and prove that it is identically zero if and only if the deformation has a…
We consider families of Abelian integrals arising from perturbations of planar Hamiltonian systems. The tangential center focus problem asks for the conditions under which these integrals vanish identically. The problem is closely related…
In this paper we study conditions for the vanishing of Abelian integrals on families of zero-dimensional cycles. That is, for any rational function $f(z)$, characterize all rational functions $g(z)$ and zero-sum integers $\{n_i\}$ such that…
We solve the problem of determining under which conditions the monodromy of a vanishing cycle generates the whole homology of a regular fiber for a polynomial $f(x,y)=g(x)+h(y)$ where $h$ and $g$ are polynomials with real coefficients…
The central levels problem asserts that the subgraph of the $(2m+1)$-dimensional hypercube induced by all bitstrings with at least $m+1-\ell$ many 1s and at most $m+\ell$ many 1s, i.e., the vertices in the middle $2\ell$ levels, has a…

Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…
M. Amer and A. Brumer have shown that, for two homogeneous quadratic polynomials f and g in at least 3 variables over a field k of characteristic different from 2, the locus f=g=0 has non-trivial solution over k if and only if, for a…
We consider the cyclotomic identity testing (CIT) problem: given a polynomial $f(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$, decide whether $f(\zeta_n^{e_1},\ldots,\zeta_n^{e_k})$ is zero, where $\zeta_n = e^{2\pi i/n}$ is a primitive complex $n$-th root of unity…
Let p(z) be a complex polynomial of degree n. Let C be a circle containing its n-1 zeros, having its center in the centroid of these zeros. We prove that C must contain at least int((n-1):2) zeros of its derivative.
We characterize global centers (all solutions are periodic) of the piecewise linear equation $x'=a(t)|x| + b(t)$ when the coefficients $a,b$ are trigonometric polynomials, under some generic hypotheses. We prove that the global centers are…
We show that the Skolem Problem is decidable in finitely generated commutative rings of positive characteristic. More precisely, we show that there exists an algorithm which, given a finite presentation of a (unitary) commutative ring…
In this paper, I have proved that for a class of polynomial differential systems of degree n+1 ( where n is an arbitrary positive integer) the composition conjecture is true. I give the sufficient and necessary conditions for these…
Supposing that $A(z)$ is an exponential polynomial of the form $$ A(z)=H_0(z)+H_1(z)e^{\zeta_1z^n}+\cdots +H_m(z)e^{\zeta_mz^n}, $$ where $H_j$'s are entire and of order $<n$, it is demonstrated that the function $H_0(z)$ and the geometric…
The problem of finding a nonzero solution of a linear recurrence $Ly = 0$ with polynomial coefficients where $y$ has the form of a definite hypergeometric sum, related to the Inverse Creative Telescoping Problem of [14][Sec. 8], has now…

The present paper concerns the derivation of phase-integral quantization conditions for the two-centre Coulomb problem under the assumption that the two Coulomb centres are fixed. With this restriction we treat the general two-centre…
