In this work we study orthogonal polynomials via polynomial mappings in the framework of the $H_q-$semiclassical class. We consider two monic orthogonal polynomial sequences $\{p_n (x)\}_{n\geq0}$ and $\{q_n(x)\}_{n\geq0}$ such that $$…
The quantum walk (QW) is the term given to a family of algorithms governing the evolution of a discrete quantum system and as such has a founding role in the study of quantum computation. We contribute to the investigation of QW phenomena…
We explore relations between cyclic sequences determined by a quadratic difference relation, cyclotomic polynomials, Eulerian digraphs and walks in the plane. These walks correspond to closed paths for which at each step one must turn…
We consider a one parameter family of a PT symmetric two dimensional system with quadratic non-linearities. Such systems are shown to perform periodic oscillations due to existing centers. We describe this systems by constructing a…
We present new polynomial-based methods for discrete-time quaternionic systems, highlighting how noncommutative multiplication modifies classical control approaches. Defining quaternionic polynomials via a backward-shift operator, we…
In previous work we computed the number $C_n(q)$ of ideals of codimension $n$ of the algebra ${\mathbb{F}}_q[x,y,x^{-1}, y^{-1}]$ of two-variable Laurent polynomials over a finite field: it turned out that $C_n(q)$ is a palindromic…
Given a sequence of complex numbers {\rho}_n, we study the asymptotic distribution of the sets of parameters c {\epsilon} C such that the quadratic maps z^2 +c has a cycle of period n and multiplier {\rho}_n. Assume 1/n.log|{\rho}_n| tends…
Many interesting computational problems can be reformulated in terms of decision trees. A natural classical algorithm is to then run a random walk on the tree, starting at the root, to see if the tree contains a node n levels from the root.…
Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, $f, g\in \mathbb F_q[x]$ be polynomials of degree at least one. This paper deals with the asymptotic growth of certain arithmetic functions associated to the factorization of the…
Consider a quadratic polynomial $Q(\xi_{1},\dots,\xi_{n})$ of independent Rademacher random variables $\xi_{1},\dots,\xi_{n}$. To what extent can $Q(\xi_{1},\dots,\xi_{n})$ concentrate on a single value? This quadratic version of the…
Let $\mathbf{T}_{\mathbf{a},\mathbf{b}}$ be the number of $3$-way contingency tables of size $m \times n \times p$ with two of its three plane-sum margins fixed by $\mathbf{a}=(a_1, \ldots, a_m) \in \mathbb{N}^m$ and $\mathbf{b}=(b_1,…
We prove a function field analogue of Maynard's result about primes with restricted digits. That is, for certain ranges of parameters n and q, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of irreducible polynomials of degree n over a…
We analyze the classical stability of Q-tubes --- charged extended objects in $(3+1)$-dimensional complex scalar field theory. Explicit solutions were found analytically in the piecewise parabolic potential. Our choice of potential allows…
Let $\{U(m)\}_{m\in \N}$ and $\{V(n)\}_{n\in \N}$ be linear recurrence sequences. It is a well-known Diophantine problem to determine the finiteness of the set of natural numbers $n$ such that the ratio $U(n)/V(n)$ is an integer. We study…
Singular nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials are constructed by use of the representation theory of the Hecke algebras of the symmetric groups. These polynomials are labeled by quasistaircase partitions and are associated to special…
We consider the sequence $( Q_n )_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of semi-meander polynomials which are used in the enumeration of semi-meandric systems (a family of diagrams related to the classical stamp-folding problem). We show that for a fixed natural…
We present an algorithm to solve a system of diagonal polynomial equations over finite fields when the number of variables is greater than some fixed polynomial of the number of equations whose degree depends only on the degree of the…
In 1976 Martin Gardner posed the following problem: ``What is the smallest number of [queens] you can put on an [$n \times n$ chessboard] such that no [queen] can be added without creating three in a row, a column, or a diagonal?'' The work…
We apply several quantization schemes to simple versions of the Chinos game. Classically, for two players with one coin each, there is a symmetric stable strategy that allows each player to win half of the times on average. A partial…
The goal is to make a global study of the family QsnSN of all real quadratic polynomial differential systems which have a finite semi-elemental saddle-node and an infinite saddle-node formed by the collision of two infinite singular points.…
