We pursue various restricted variable generalizations of the Chevalley-Warning theorem for low degree polynomial systems over a finite field. Our first such result involves variables restricted to Cartesian products of the Vandermonde…

We present a generalization of Warning's Second Theorem to polynomial systems over a finite local principal ring with suitably restricted input and output variables. This generalizes a recent result with Forrow and Schmitt (and gives a new…

We give conditions under which the number of solutions of a system of polynomial equations over a finite field F_q of characteristic p is divisible by p. Our setup involves the substitution t_i |-> f_i(t_i) for auxiliary polynomials…

We begin by explaining how arguments used by R. Wilson to give an elementary proof of the $\mathbb F_p$ case for the Ax-Katz Theorem can also be used to prove the following generalization of the Chevalley-Warning and Ax-Katz Theorems for…

We provide a lower bound on the probability that a binomial random variable is exceeding its mean. Our proof employs estimates on the mean absolute deviation and the tail conditional expectation of binomial random variables.

We study lower bound estimates for the number of solutions of systems of equations over finite fields. Heath-Brown improved the lower bounds given by the classical \emph{Chevalley-Warning Theorems} by excluding systems of equations whose…

We establish sharp estimates that adapt the polynomial method to arbitrary varieties. These include a partitioning theorem, estimates on polynomials vanishing on fixed sets and bounds for the number of connected components of real algebraic…

We give a lower bound for the degree of an irreducible factor of a given polynomial. This improves and generalizes the results obtained in [4, On the irreducible factors of a polynomial, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 148 (2020] 1429 -- 1437].

In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem using a probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simpler for a student familiar with only basic…

We give a bound for the number of real solutions to systems of n polynomials in n variables, where the monomials appearing in different polynomials are distinct. This bound is smaller than the fewnomial bound if this structure of the…

We derive new bounds of the remainder in a combinatorial central limit theorem without assumptions on independence and existence of moments of summands. For independent random variables our theorems imply Esseen and Berry-Esseen type…

In this paper we present the result of successively applying a Chebyshev polynomial to a continuous random variable. In particular we show that under mild assumptions the limiting distribution will be the same as the weight with respect to…

A degree-$d$ polynomial $p$ in $n$ variables over a field $\F$ is {\em equidistributed} if it takes on each of its $|\F|$ values close to equally often, and {\em biased} otherwise. We say that $p$ has a {\em low rank} if it can be expressed…

We obtain similar types of conclusions as that of Br\"{u}ck [1] for two differential polynomials which in turn radically improve and generalize several existing results. Moreover, a number of examples have been exhibited to justify the…

Polynomial Systems, or at least their algorithms, have the reputation of being doubly-exponential in the number of variables [Mayr and Mayer, 1982], [Davenport and Heintz, 1988]. Nevertheless, the Bezout bound tells us that that number of…

With the dual variational principle and the saddle point reduction we use the abstract bifurcation theory recently developed by author in previous work to prove many new bifurcation results for solutions of four types of Hamiltonian…

Possibility theory offers a framework where both Lehmann's "preferential inference" and the more productive (but less cautious) "rational closure inference" can be represented. However, there are situations where the second inference does…

Let $f_1,\...,f_r$ be polynomials in $n$ variables over a finite field $F$ of cardinality $q$ and characteristic $p$. Let $f_i$ have total degree $d_i$ and define $d=d_1+\...+d_r$. Write $Z$ for the set of common zeros of the $f_i$, over…

We propose the existence theorem for bounded solutions to the system of 2-nd order ODE. Dynamical applications have been considered.

We give the proof of a tight lower bound on the probability that a binomial random variable exceeds its expected value. The inequality plays an important role in a variety of contexts, including the analysis of relative deviation bounds in…
