In Pacific J. Math. 292 (2018), 223-238, Shareshian and Woodroofe asked if for every positive integer $n$ there exist primes $p$ and $q$ such that, for all integers $k$ with $1 \leq k \leq n-1$, the binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}$ is…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finite extension. We prove that the minimal height of polynomials of degree $n$ of which all roots are in $K^\times$ increases exponentially in $n$. We determine the implied constant exactly for totally real $K$ and…

We initiate the study of the coefficients of the distinct monomials in the expansion of the multivariate polynomials $x_1(x_1+x_2)\cdots(x_1+x_2+\cdots+x_n), n\in\N$. In particular we obtain several results regarding their maximal…

For a prime p and nonnegative integers n,k, consider the set A_{n,k}^{(p)}={x is in [0,1,...,n]: p^k||binom {n} {x}}. Let the expansion of n+1 in base p be: n+1=alpha_{0} p^{\nu}+alpha_{1}p^{nu-1}+...+alpha_{nu}, where 0<=alpha_{i}<=…

We analyze the Krawtchouk polynomials K(n,x,N,p,q) asymptotically. We use singular perturbation methods to analyze them for N large with appropriate scalings of the two variables x and n. In particular, the WKB method and asymptotic…

We prove effective finiteness results concerning polynomial values of the sums $$ b^k +\left(a+b\right)^k + \cdots + \left(a\left(x-1\right) + b\right)^k $$ and $$ b^k - \left(a+b\right)^k + \left(2a+b\right)^k - \ldots + (-1)^{x-1}…

Let $\Phi_{n}(q)$ denote the $n$-th cyclotomic polynomial in $q$. Recently, Guo and Schlosser [Constr. Approx. 53 (2021), 155--200] put forward the following conjecture: for an odd integer $n>1$, \begin{align*}…

The discrete Chebyshev polynomials $t_n(x,N)$ are orthogonal with respect to a distribution function, which is a step function with jumps one unit at the points $x=0,1,..., N-1$, N being a fixed positive integer. By using a double integral…

We give a new $q$-$(1+q)$-analogue of the Gaussian coefficient, also known as the $q$-binomial which, like the original $q$-binomial $\genfrac{[}{]}{0pt}{}{n}{k}_{q}$, is symmetric in $k$ and $n-k$. We show this $q$-$(1+q)$-binomial is more…

Let $ \{\varphi_i(z;\alpha)\}_{i=0}^\infty $, corresponding to $ \alpha\in(-1,1) $, be orthonormal Geronimus polynomials. We study asymptotic behavior of the expected number of real zeros, say $ \mathbb E_n(\alpha) $, of random polynomials…

Wang and Yeh proved that if $P(x)$ is a polynomial with nonnegative and nondecreasing coefficients, then $P(x+d)$ is unimodal for any $d>0$. A mode of a unimodal polynomial $f(x)=a_0+a_1x+\cdots + a_mx^m$ is an index $k$ such that $a_k$ is…

For integers $b$ and $c$ the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Those $T_n=T_n(1,1)\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ are the usual central trinomial coefficients, and…

The function $g(x)= (1+1/x)^{x}$ has the well-known limit $e$ as $x\rightarrow{\infty}$. The coefficients $c_{j}$ in an asymptotic expansion for $g(x)$ are considered. A simple recursion formula is derived, and then using Cauchy's integral…

In this paper, we give explicit error bounds for the asymptotic expansion of the shifted distinct partition function $q(n +s)$ for any nonnegative integer $s$. Then based on this refined asymptotic formula, we give the exact thresholds of…

We obtain nontrivial estimates of quadratic character sums of division polynomials $\Psi_n(P)$, $n=1,2, ...$, evaluated at a given point $P$ on an elliptic curve over a finite field of $q$ elements. Our bounds are nontrivial if the order of…

Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…

We consider the orthogonal polynomials on $[-1,1]$ with respect to the weight $$ w_c(x)=h(x)(1-x)^{\alpha}(1+x)^{\beta} \Xi_{c}(x), \quad \alpha, \beta >-1, $$ where $h$ is real analytic and strictly positive on $[-1, 1]$, and $\Xi_{c}$ is…

In this work in progress, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the $p$-quantile of the Beta distribution, i.e. the quantity $q$ defined implicitly by $\int_0^q t^{a - 1} (1 - t)^{b - 1} \text{d} t = p B (a, b)$, as a function of the first…
