Let $P_1,...,P_n$ be generic homogeneous polynomials in $n$ variables of degrees $d_1,...,d_n$ respectively. We prove that if $\nu$ is an integer satisfying ${\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}-n+1-\min\{d_i\}<\nu,$ then all multivariate subresultants…
We introduce a new problem on the elementary symmetric polynomials $\sigma_k$, stemming from the constraint equations of some modified gravity theory. For which coefficients is a linear combination of $\sigma_k$ $1/p$-concave, with $0 \leq…
Elementary symmetric polynomials $S_n^k$ are used as a benchmark for the bounded-depth arithmetic circuit model of computation. In this work we prove that $S_n^k$ modulo composite numbers $m=p_1p_2$ can be computed with much fewer…
We prove that if $P(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ is an integer polynomial of degree $n$ and having $P(0) = 1$, then either $P(X)$ is a product of cyclotomic polynomials, or else at least one of the complex roots of $P$ belongs to the disk $|z|…
We show that there exist absolute constants $\Delta > \delta > 0$ such that, for all $n \geqslant 2$, there exists a polynomial $P$ of degree $n$, with $\pm 1$ coefficients, such that $$\delta\sqrt{n} \leqslant |P(z)| \leqslant…
We derive sharp, explicit constants in inverse trace inequalities for polynomial functions belonging to $\mathbb{P}_p(T)$ (polynomial space with total degree $p$) that are orthogonal to the lower-order subspace $\mathbb{P}_n(T)$, $n\leq p$,…
We study classes of locally biholomorphic mappings defined in the $\P$ that have bounded Schwarzian operator in the Bergman metric. We establish important properties of specific solutions of the associated system of differential equations…
The goal of this paper is to develop a Heine-Stieltjes theory for univariate linear differential operators of higher order. Namely, for a given given operator T=\sum_i Q_i(z)d^i/dz^i with polynomial coefficients Q_i(z) set r=max_i (deg…
We prove the existence of complex polynomials $p(z)$ of degree $n$ and $q(z)$ of degree $m<n$ such that the harmonic polynomial $ p(z) + \overline{q(z)}$ has at least $\lceil n \sqrt{m} \rceil$ many zeros. This provides an array of new…
Let $P(\partial_0,\partial_1,...,\partial_n)$ be a PDO on $\symR^{1+n}$ with constant coefficients. It is proved that (i) the real parts of the $\lambda$-roots of the polynomial $P(\lambda,i\xi_1,...,i\xi_n)$ are bounded from above when…
Assume that $\{a_{n};\,n\geq0\}$ is a sequence of positive numbers and $\sum a_{n}^{\,-1}<\infty$. Let $\alpha_{n}=ka_{n}$, $\beta_{n}=a_{n}+k^{2}a_{n-1}$ where $k\in(0,1)$ is a parameter, and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be an orthonormal polynomial…
We present a generic operator $J$ simply defined as a linear map not increasing the degree from the vectorial space of polynomial functions into itself and we address the problem of finding the polynomial sequences that coincide with the…
Following the classical approach of P\'olya-Schur theory we initiate in this paper the study of linear operators acting on $\mathbb{R}[x]$ and preserving either the set of positive univariate polynomials or similar sets of non-negative and…
We prove lower bounds of order $n\log n$ for both the problem to multiply polynomials of degree $n$, and to divide polynomials with remainder, in the model of bounded coefficient arithmetic circuits over the complex numbers. These lower…
We characterize matrix polynomials $P,Q$ such that the inequality $$ \left\Vert Q(D)u\right\Vert _{L^{2}}\leq C\left\Vert P(D)u\right\Vert _{L^{2}}\quad\text{for all }u\in C_c^\infty(\Omega), $$ holds on bounded open sets $\Omega$. We also…
A number $\lambda \in \mathbb C $ is called an {\it eigenvalue} of the matrix polynomial $P(z)$ if there exists a nonzero vector $x \in \mathbb C^n$ such that $P(\lambda)x = 0$. Note that each finite eigenvalue of $P(z)$ is a zero of the…
A conjecture of Sendov states that if a polynomial has all its roots in the unit disk and if $\beta$ is one of those roots, then within one unit of $\beta$ lies a root of the polynomial's derivative. If we define $r(\beta)$ to be the…

In this paper, we examine linear programming (LP) relaxations based on Bernstein polynomials for polynomial optimization problems (POPs). We present a progression of increasingly more precise LP relaxations based on expressing the given…
Suppose $\{P_{n}^{(\alpha, \beta)}(x)\}_{n=0}^\infty $ is a sequence of Jacobi polynomials with $ \alpha, \beta >-1.$ We discuss special cases of a question raised by Alan Sokal at OPSFA in 2019, namely, whether the zeros of $…
