We prove a lower bound on the canonical height associated to polynomials over number fields evaluated at points with infinite forward orbit. The lower bound depends only on the degree of the polynomial, the degree of the number field, and…

In this paper, we study the curvature properties of random complex plane curves. We bound from below the probability that a uniform proportion of the area of a random complex degree $d$ plane curve has a curvature smaller than $-d/8$. Our…

We consider random polynomials whose coefficients are independent and uniform on {-1,1}. We prove that the probability that such a polynomial of degree n has a double root is o(n^{-2}) when n+1 is not divisible by 4 and asymptotic to…

We estimate the frequency of polynomial iterations which falls in a given multiplicative subgroup of a finite field of $p$ elements. We also give a lower bound on the size of the subgroup which is multiplicatively generated by the first $N$…

A classical result by Otter shows that the complete graph has an exponential number of non-isomorphic spanning trees. This was recently extended by Lee to every almost regular graph of sufficiently large degree. In this paper, we consider…

Conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we prove the following results: (1) a cyclic number field of degree $5$ is norm-Euclidean if and only if $\Delta=11^4,31^4,41^4$; (2) a cyclic number field of degree $7$ is…

We prove that if G is a sufficiently large finite almost simple group of Lie type, then given a fixed nontrivial element x in G and a coset of G modulo its socle, the probability that x and a random element of the coset generate a subgroup…

In this paper we determine the asymptotic density of coprime fractions in those of the reduced fractions of number fields. When ordered by norms of denominators, we count a fraction as soon as it ``appears'' for the first time and no later.…

An important theorem by Timofte states that nonnegativity of real $n$-variate symmetric polynomials of degree $d$ can be decided at test sets given by all points with at most $\lfloor\frac{d}{2}\rfloor$ distinct components. However, if the…

Given a set S of n \geq d points in general position in R^d, a random hyperplane split is obtained by sampling d points uniformly at random without replacement from S and splitting based on their affine hull. A random hyperplane search tree…

The expected number of zeros of a random real polynomial of degree $N$ asymptotically equals $\frac{2}{\pi}\log N$. On the other hand, the average fraction of real zeros of a random trigonometric polynomial of increasing degree $N$…

We consider the membrane model on a box $V_N\subset \mathbb{Z}^n$ of size $(2N+1)^n$ with zero boundary condition in the subcritical dimensions $n=2$ and $n=3$. We show optimal estimates for the probability that the field is positive in a…

One of the fundamental invariants connecting algebra and geometry is the degree of an ideal. In this paper we derive the probabilistic behavior of degree with respect to the versatile Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi-type model for random monomial ideals…

The absorption in the extremal D3-brane background is studied for a class of massless fields whose linear perturbations leave the ten-dimensional background metric unperturbed, as well as the minimally-coupled massive scalar. We find that…

We give an upper bound in O(d ^((n+1)/2)) for the number of critical points of a normal random polynomial with degree d and at most n variables. Using the large deviation principle for the spectral value of large random matrices we obtain…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of permutation for which the associated permutation polynomial has degree smaller than $q-2$.

A polynomial of the form $x^\alpha - p(x)$, where the degree of $p$ is less than the total degree of $x^\alpha$, is said to be least deviation from zero if it has the smallest uniform norm among all such polynomials. We study polynomials of…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…

The main result of the paper is the classification of all (nonassociative) algebras of level two, i.e. such algebras that maximal chains of nontrivial degenerations starting at them have length two. During this classification we obtain an…

Given a number field $L$, we define the degree of an algebraic number $v \in L$ with respect to a choice of a primitive element of $L$. We propose the question of computing the minimal degrees of algebraic numbers in $L$, and examine these…
