We prove that unicritical polynomials $f(z)=z^d+c$ which are semihyperbolic, i.e., for which the critical point $0$ is a non-recurrent point in the Julia set, are uniformly expanding on the Julia set with respect to the metric $\rho(z)…
A linearized polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb F_{q^n}[x]$ is called scattered if for any $y,z\in\mathbb F_{q^n}$, the condition $zf(y)-yf(z)=0$ implies that $y$ and $z$ are $\mathbb F_{q}$-linearly dependent. In this paper two generalizations of…
The Mandelbrot set is a fractal which classifies the behaviour of complex quadratic polynomials. Although its remarkably simple definition: $\mathcal{M}:=\{c \in \mathbb{C}\,|\,Q_c(0)^n \nrightarrow \infty \mbox{ as } n\rightarrow \infty,…
This paper proposes new quadratic constraints (QCs) to bound a quadratic polynomial. Such QCs can be used in dissipation ineqaulities to analyze the stability and performance of nonlinear systems with quadratic vector fields. The proposed…
Let $\alpha\in(0,1)\setminus{\Bbb Q}$ and $K=\{(e^z,e^{\alpha z}):\,|z|\leq1\}\subset{\Bbb C}^2$. If $P$ is a polynomial of degree $n$ in ${\Bbb C}^2$, normalized by $\|P\|_K=1$, we obtain sharp estimates for $\|P\|_{\Delta^2}$ in terms of…
We apply a symbolic approach of the general quadratic decomposition of polynomial sequences - presented in a previous article referenced herein - to polynomial sequences fulfilling specific orthogonal conditions towards two given…
For the generalized Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha_n, \beta_n)} (x), L_n^{(\alpha_n)} (x),$\break $H_n^{(\gamma_n)} (x)$ the limit distributions of the zeros are found, when the sequences $\alpha_n$ or $\beta_n$ tend…
We discuss asymptotics of the zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the real line and on the unit circle when the recursion coefficients are periodic. The zeros on or near the absolutely continuous spectrum have a clock structure with spacings…
Let $G$ be a group such that any non-trivial representation has dimension at least $d$. Let $X=(X_{1},X_{2},\ldots,X_{t})$ and $Y=(Y_{1},Y_{2},\ldots,Y_{t})$ be distributions over $G^{t}$. Suppose that $X$ is independent from $Y$. We show…
Consider the divisor sum $\sum_{n\leq N}\tau(n^2+2bn+c)$ for integers $b$ and $c$. We extract an asymptotic formula for the average divisor sum in a convenient form, and provide an explicit upper bound for this sum with the correct main…
We analyze the behavior of multipliers of a degenerating sequence of complex rational maps. We show either most periodic points have uniformly bounded multipliers, or most of them have exploding multipliers at a common scale. We further…
We study matrix coefficients of the unitary (and also the completely bounded) representations of SL(2;R) and its universal covering group. We describe the asymptotic distribution of column vectors in terms of Whittaker functions, exhibiting…
We detail the continued fraction expansion of the square root of a monic polynomials of even degree. We note that each step of the expansion corresponds to addition of the divisor at infinity, and interpret the data yielded by the general…
We study moments of the logarithmic derivative of characteristic polynomials of orthogonal and symplectic random matrices. In particular, we compute the asymptotics for large matrix size, $N$, of these moments evaluated at points which are…
Below we study theoretically and numerically the asymptotics of the algebraic part of the spectrum for the quasi-exactly solvable sextic potential, its level crossing points, and its monodromy in the complex plane of its parameter. We also…
We consider parameters $\lambda$ for which $0$ is preperiodic under the map $z\mapsto\lambda e^z$. Given $k$ and $l$, let $n(r)$ be the number of $\lambda$ satisfying $0<|\lambda|\leq r$ such that $0$ is mapped after $k$ iterations to a…
Let $P(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ be an irreducible, monic, quartic polynomial with cyclic or dihedral Galois group. We prove that there exists a constant $c_P>0$ such that for a positive proportion of integers $n$, $P(n)$ has a prime factor $\ge…
Let $(f_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of polynomials and $\alpha>1$. In this paper we study the distribution of the sequence $(f_n(\alpha))_{n=1}^{\infty}$ modulo one. We give sufficient conditions for a sequence $(f_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$…
We study a family of monic orthogonal polynomials which are orthogonal with respect to the varying, complex valued weight function, $\exp(nsz)$, over the interval $[-1,1]$, where $s\in\mathbb{C}$ is arbitrary. This family of polynomials…
Let $G=\SL(2,\R)\ltimes(\R^2)^{k}$, let $\Gamma$ be a congruence subgroup of $\SL(2,\Z)\ltimes(\Z^2)^{k}$, and let $u_{\R}=(u_x)_{x\in\R}$ be the one-parameter subgroup of $G$ given by $u_x=\left(\matr 1x01,0\right)$. We prove polynomially…
