General revision. In particular the parts concerning involutive bases over rings have been significantly changed. In addition some proofs have been improved.

Let $f,g \in k[x]$ be nonconstant polynomials over a number field $k$. We count $S$-integer inputs $a$ for which $f(a)$ has a $k$-rational preimage under $g$, after removing the polynomial graph components $Y=h(X)$ with $f=g\circ h$. The…

This note is an introduction to the properties of stable polynomials in several variables with real or complex coefficients. These polynomials are defined in terms of where the polynomial is non-vanishing. We do not cover well-known topics…

Let L be any number field or $\mathfrak{p}$-adic field and consider F:=(f_1,...,f_k) where f_i is in L[x_1,...,x_n]\{0} for all i and there are exactly m distinct exponent vectors appearing in f_1,...,f_k. We prove that F has no more than…

Consider the polynomial $f(x,y)=xy^k+C$ for $k\geq 2$ and any nonzero integer constant $C$. We derive an asymptotic formula for the $k$-free values of $f(x,y)$ when $x, y\leq H$. We also prove a similar result for the $k$-free values of…

We consider binomial and inverse binomial sums at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi$ or $\log(2)$. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as specializations of…

We compute the $k$th power-sums (for all $k>0$) over an arbitrary finite unital ring $R$. This unifies and extends the work of Brawley, Carlitz, and Levine for matrix rings [Duke Math. J. 1974], with folklore results for finite fields and…

A dimensionally continued background-field method makes the rationality of the 4-loop quenched QED beta function far more reasonable than had previously appeared. After 33 years of quest, dating from Rosner's discovery of 3-loop…

This work contains different expressions for the k'th derivative of the n'th power of the trigonometric and hyperbolic sine and cosine. The first set of expressions follow from the complex definitions of the trigonometric and hyperbolic…

We generalize the notion of Davenport constants to a `higher degree' and obtain various lower and upper bounds, which are sometimes exact as is the case for certain finite commutative rings of prime power cardinality. Two simple examples…

Let $D_n$ be the dihedral group with $2n$ elements, and suppose $n$ is greater than one. We call ring system a finite $D_n$-symmetric set of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Ring systems have been used as models for planets surrounded by rings,…

The aim of this paper is to provide sufficient conditions for when a polynomial or rational function over a field K is prime using its order of vanishing at infinity and the resultant.

We prove that the density of polynomials $P(x)=\sum_{i=0}^n a_n x^n$ over a local field $K$ generating an \'etale extension with specified splitting type is a rational function in terms of the size of the residue field of $K$ in the case…

In this paper we prove that points in the space $X(k,n)$ of configurations of $n$ points in $\mathbb{CP}^{k-1}$ which are fixed under a certain cyclic action are the solutions to the generalized scattering equations on planar kinematics…

Let K be the product O(n_1) x O(n_2) x ... x O(n_r) of orthogonal groups. Let V the r-fold tensor product of defining representations of each orthogonal factor. We compute a stable formula for the dimension of the K-invariant algebra of…

A polynomial ring with rational coefficients is an irreducible representation of Lie algebras of endomorphisms of exterior powers of a infinite countable dimensional $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space. We give an explicit description of it, using…

Let $H$ be a skew field of finite dimension over its center $k$. We solve the Inverse Galois Problem over the field of fractions $H(X)$ of the ring of polynomial functions over $H$ in the variable $X$, if $k$ contains an ample field.

Using the cyclotomic identity we compute sums over d-tuples of monic polynomials in F_q[x] weighted by the multiplicity of their irreducible factors. As consequences we determine explicit expressions for the number of d-tuples of…

A constant term sequence is a sequence of rational numbers whose $n$-th term is the constant term of $P^n(\boldsymbol{x}) Q(\boldsymbol{x})$, where $P(\boldsymbol{x})$ and $Q(\boldsymbol{x})$ are multivariate Laurent polynomials. While the…

Let $f(Y)\in K[[X_1,\dots,X_d]][Y]$ be a quasi-ordinary Weierstrass polynomial with coefficients in the ring of formal power series over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In this paper we study the discriminant $D_f$ of…
