The number partitioning problem can be interpreted physically in terms of a thermally isolated non-interacting Bose gas trapped in a one-dimensional harmonic oscillator potential. We exploit this analogy to characterize, by means of a…
We study asymptotic clustering of zeros of random polynomials, and show that the expected discrepancy of roots of a polynomial of degree $n$, with not necessarily independent coefficients, decays like $\sqrt{\log n/n}$. Our proofs rely on…
We prove that every indefinite quadratic form with non-negative integer coefficients is the volume polynomial of a pair of lattice polygons. This solves the discrete version of the Heine-Shephard problem for two bodies in the plane. As an…
We use the Circle Method to derive asymptotic formulas for functions related to the number of parts of partitions in particular residue classes.
Denote by $x$ a random infinite path in the graph of Pascal's triangle (left and right turns are selected independently with fixed probabilities) and by $d_n(x)$ the binomial coefficient at the $n$'th level along the path $x$. Then for a…
We define an n-dimensional polytope Pi_n(x), depending on parameters x_i>0, whose combinatorial properties are closely connected with empirical distributions, plane trees, plane partitions, parking functions, and the associahedron. In…
Here we examine the number of ways to partition an integer $n$ into $k$th powers when $n$ is large. Simplified proofs of some asymptotic results of Wright are given using the saddle-point method, including exact formulas for the expansion…
We consider asymptotics of planar orthogonal polynomials $P_{n,N}$ (where $\mathrm{deg}P_{n,N}=n$) with respect to the weight $$\frac{|z-w|^{2NQ_1}}{(1+|z|^2)^{N(1+Q_0+Q_1)+1}}, \quad(Q_0,Q_1 > 0)$$ in the whole complex plane. With $n,…
A polynomial whose coeffcients are equal to its roots is called a Ulam polynomial. In this paper we show that for a given degree n there exists a finite number of Ulam polynomials of degree n.
We establish a new asymptotic formula for the number of polynomials of degree $n$ with $k$ prime factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The error term tends to $0$ uniformly in $n$ and in $q$, and $k$ can grow beyond $\log n$.…
A unitary cyclotomic polynomial of order three is a polynomial of the form \[ \Phi^*_{PQR}(x)=\frac{(x^{PQR}-1)(x^P-1)(x^Q-1)(x^R-1)}{(x^{PQ}-1)(x^{QR}-1)(x^{RP}-1)(x-1)}, \] where $P$, $Q$ and $R$ are powers of three distinct primes $p$,…
Let t[n] be a sequence that satisfies a first order homogeneous recurrence t[n] = Q[n]*t[n-1], where Q is a polynomial with integer coefficients. The asymptotic behavior of the p-adic valuation of t[n] is described under the assumption that…
We prove asymptotic formulas for the complex coefficients of $(\zeta q;q)_\infty^{-1}$, where $\zeta$ is a root of unity, and apply our results to determine secondary terms in the asymptotics for $p(a,b,n)$, the number of integer partitions…
A class of non-linear eigenvalue problems defined in the form of operator polynomials is investigated. The problems are related to wave equations which appear in a relativistic quantum field theory. Spectral asymptotics for this class are…
In this short lecture, we compute asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials, from a saddle point approximation. This is an example of a calculation which shows the link between integrability, algebraic geometry and random matrices.
In this paper, we enumerate Newton polygons asymptotically. The number of Newton polygons is computable by a simple recurrence equation, but unexpectedly the asymptotic formula of its logarithm contains growing oscillatory terms. As the…
To prove that a polynomial is nonnegative on R^n one can try to show that it is a sum of squares of polynomials (SOS). The latter problem is now known to be reducible to a semidefinite programming (SDP) computation much faster than…
Consider a random polynomial $Q_n$ of degree $n+1$ whose zeroes are i.i.d. random variables $\xi_0,\xi_1,\ldots,\xi_n$ in the complex plane. We study the pairing between the zeroes of $Q_n$ and its critical points, i.e. the zeroes of its…
We consider polynomials $p_n^{\omega}(x)$ that are orthogonal with respect to the oscillatory weight $w(x)=e^{i\omega x}$ on $[-1,1]$, where $\omega>0$ is a real parameter. A first analysis of $p_n^{\omega}(x)$ for large values of $\omega$…
Let $p(z)$ be a monic polynomial of degree $n$, with complex coefficients, and let $q(z)$ be its monic factor. We prove an asymptotically sharp inequality of the form $\|q\|_{E} \le C^n \|p\|_E$, where $\|\cdot\|_E$ denotes the sup norm on…
