One object of interest in random matrix theory is a family of point ensembles (random point configurations) related to various systems of classical orthogonal polynomials. The paper deals with a one--parametric deformation of these…

There are two fundamental problems motivated by Silverman's conversations over the years concerning the nature of the exact values of canonical heights of $f(z)\in\bar{\mathbb{Q}}(z)$ where $f$ has degree $d\geq 2$. The first problem is the…

In this note we show that a linear ordinary differential equation with polynomial coefficients is globally non-oscillating in $\mathbb{C} P^1$ if and only if it is Fuchsian, and at every its singular point any two distinct characteristic…

We show that any tetragonal Gorenstein integral curve is a complete intersection in its respective $3$-fold rational normal scroll S, implying that the normal sheaf on $C$ embedded in S, and in $\mathbb{P}^{g-1}$ as well, is unstable for…

We consider a family of heights defined by the $L_p$ norms of polynomials with respect to the equilibrium measure of a lemniscate for $0 \le p \le \infty$, where $p=0$ corresponds to the geometric mean (the generalized Mahler measure) and…

We study the local statistics of orthogonal polynomial ensembles near a hard edge, subject to a multiplicative deformation of the measure. Probabilistically, this deformation corresponds to a position-dependent conditional thinning of the…

Let $p$ be a prime number. Every $n$-variable polynomial $f(\underline x)$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ defines an Artin--Schreier--Witt tower of varieties whose Galois group is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Our goal of this…

We propose a general framework for geometric approximation of circular arcs by parametric polynomial curves. The approach is based on constrained uniform approximation of an error function by scalar polynomials. The system of nonlinear…

Starting from the nonlinear ODE $z'' + f(t)\,z + g(t)\, z^{m}=0$ with $m>1$, we show that after a suitable normal-form reduction of any Hill equation one may, without loss of generality, fix the linear part as $f(t)\equiv \omega^{2}$ (with…

A rotation-minimizing frame $({\bf f}_1,{\bf f}_2,{\bf f}_3)$ on a space curve ${\bf r}(\xi)$ defines an orthonormal basis for $\mathbb{R}^3$ in which ${\bf f}_1={\bf r}'/|{\bf r}'|$ is the curve tangent, and the normal-plane vectors ${\bf…

The fractional stable set polytope ${\rm FRAC}(G)$ of a simple graph $G$ with $d$ vertices is a rational polytope that is the set of nonnegative vectors $(x_1,\ldots,x_d)$ satisfying $x_i+x_j\le 1$ for every edge $(i,j)$ of $G$. In this…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero and let $I \subset R$ be a graded ideal of height $N$ which is minimally generated by $N+1$ homogeneous polynomials. If $I=(f_1,...,f_{N+1})$ where $f_i$ has degree $d_i$ and…

We study connections between orthogonal polynomials, reproducing kernel functions, and polynomials $p$ minimizing Dirichlet-type norms $\|pf-1\|_{\alpha}$ for a given function $f$. For $\alpha\in [0,1]$ (which includes the Hardy and…

We study the Gaussian statistical models whose log-likelihood function has a unique complex critical point, i.e., has maximum likelihood degree one. We exploit the connection developed by Am\'endola et. al. between the models having maximum…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $ \overline{\mathbb Q}$, and $f:X -rightarrow X$ be a dominant rational map. Let $\delta_{f}$ be the first dynamical degree of $f$ and $h_{X}:X( \overline{\mathbb Q})\to [1,\infty)$ be a Weil…

Let $G$ be a (multi) graph on the vertex set $V=\{0,1,\ldots ,n\}$ with root $0$. The $G$-parking function ideal $\mathcal{M}_G$ is a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $R=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$ such that…

Let X be the graph in the plane of a pfaffian function f (in the sense of Khovanskii). Suppose X is not algebraic. This note gives an upper bound for the number of rational points on X of height up to X. The bound is uniform in the order…

A hypergraph $\mathcal{F}$ is non-trivial intersecting if every two edges in it have a nonempty intersection but no vertex is contained in all edges of $\mathcal{F}$. Mubayi and Verstra\"{e}te showed that for every $k \ge d+1 \ge 3$ and $n…

We show that the polynomial entropy of homeomorphisms on regular curves is bounded above by one. Moreover, the polynomial entropy equals one under the fairly mild condition that the homeomorphism possesses a wandering point. We obtain a…
