Random matrices like GUE, GOE and GSE have been studied for decades and have been shown that they possess a lot of nice properties. In 2005, a new property of independent GUE random matrices is discovered by Haagerup and Thorbj{\o}rnsen in…

To a planar algebra P in the sense of Jones we associate a natural non- commutative ring, which can be viewed as the ring of non-commutative polynomials in several indeterminates, invariant under a symmetry encoded by P. We show that this…

Several conditions are known for a self-inversive polynomial that ascertain the location of its roots, and we present a framework for comparison of those conditions. We associate a parametric family of polynomials $p_\alpha$ to each such…

We calculate admissible values of r such that a square-free polynomial with integer coefficients, no fixed prime divisor and irreducible factors of degree at most 3 takes infinitely many values that are a product of at most r distinct…

We consider the zeros of the sum of independent random polynomials as their degrees tend to infinity. Namely, let $p$ and $q$ be two independent random polynomials of degree $n$, whose roots are chosen independently from the probability…

An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it is closed under permutations of variables. We relate general symmetric ideals to the so called Specht ideals generated by all Specht polynomials of a given shape. We show a connection between the…

We here specialize the standard matrix-valued polynomial interpolation to the case where on the imaginary axis the interpolating polynomials admit various symmetries: Positive semidefinite, Skew-Hermitian, $J$-Hermitian, Hamiltonian and…

An n-gon is defined as a sequence \P=(V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of n points on the plane. An n-gon \P is said to be convex if the boundary of the convex hull of the set {V_0,...,V_{n-1}} of the vertices of \P coincides with the union of the edges…

This is my PhD thesis supervised by Professor Jerzy Weyman. A symmetric quiver $(Q,\sigma)$ is a finite quiver without oriented cycles $Q=(Q_0,Q_1)$ equipped with a contravariant involution $\sigma$ on $Q_0\sqcup Q_1$. The involution allows…

A set C of vertices of a graph is P_3-convex if every vertex outside C has at most one neighbor in C. The convex hull \sigma(A) of a set A is the smallest P_3-convex set that contains A. A set M is convexly independent if for every vertex x…

A set of vertices X of a graph G is convex if it contains all vertices on shortest paths between vertices of X. We prove that for fixed p, all partitions of the vertex set of a bipartite graph into p convex sets can be found in polynomial…

Symmetric rings were introduced by Lambek to extend usual commutative ideal theory in noncommutative rings. In this paper, we study symmetric rings over which Ore extensions are symmetric. A ring R is called strongly \sigma-symmetric if the…

Given f in Z[x_1,...,x_n], we compute the density of x in Z^n such that f(x) is squarefree, assuming the abc conjecture. Given f,g in Z[x_1,...,x_n], we compute unconditionally the density of x in Z^n such that gcd(f(x),g(x))=1. Function…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are $p\times n$ matrices each with mean $0$, variance $1$ and where all moments of any order are uniformly bounded as $p,n \to \infty$. Moreover, the entries $(X_{ij}, Y_{ij})$ are independent across $i,j$ with a common…

We say a polynomial f having integer coefficients is strongly coefficient convex if the set of coefficients of f consists of consecutive integers only. We establish various results suggesting that the divisors of x^n-1 with integer…

This chapter is a tutorial on techniques and results in free convex algebraic geometry and free real algebraic geometry (RAG). The term free refers to the central role played by algebras of noncommutative polynomials R<x> in free (freely…

Convex sets arising in a variety of applications are well-defined for every relevant dimension. Examples include the simplex and the spectraplex that correspond to probability distributions and to quantum states; combinatorial polytopes and…

A symmetric quiver $(Q,\sigma)$ is a finite quiver without oriented cycles $Q=(Q_0,Q_1)$ equipped with a contravariant involution $\sigma$ on $Q_0\sqcup Q_1$. The involution allows us to define a nondegenerate bilinear form $<,>$ on a…

Let $X^N$ be a family of $N\times N$ independent GUE random matrices, $Z^N$ a family of deterministic matrices, $P$ a self-adjoint non-commutative polynomial, that is for any $N$, $P(X^N)$ is self-adjoint, $f$ a smooth function. We prove…

The principal minors of the Toeplitz matrix $\left( x_{i-j+1}\right)_{1\le i,j,\le n}$, where $x_0=1, x_k=0$ if $k\le -1$, directly determine an involution of the polynomial ring $R[x_1, ... ,x_n]$ over any commutative ring $R$.
