Function theory on the unit disc proved key to a range of problems in statistics, probability theory, signal processing literature, and applications, and in this, a special place is occupied by trigonometric functions and the Fejer-Riesz…
Sendov conjecture tells that if $P$ denotes a complex polynomial having all his zeros in the closed unit disk and $a$ denote a zero of $P$, the closed disk of center $a$ and radius 1 contains a zero of the derivative $P'$. The main result…
A classical theorem of Wendroff shows that one may reconstructs a sequence of orthogonal polynomials on the real line from two non-constant polynomials of consecutive degrees whose zeros strictly interlace on the real line. In this note we…
We prove a detailed sums of squares formula for two variable polynomials with no zeros on the bidisk $\mathbb{D}^2$ extending previous versions of such a formula due to Cole-Wermer and Geronimo-Woerdeman. The formula is related to the…
We initiate a systematic study of nonnegative polynomials $P$ such that $P^k$ is not a sum of squares for any odd $k\geq 1$, calling such $P$ \emph{stubborn}. We develop a new invariant of a real isolated zero of a nonnegative polynomial in…
Every polynomial of the form $P=(x+1)(x^{n-1}+c_1x^{n-2}+\cdots +c_{n-1})$ is representable as Schur-Szeg\H{o} composition of $n-1$ polynomials of the form $(x+1)^{n-1}(x+a_i)$, where the numbers $a_i$ are unique up to permutation. We give…
Over a field of characteristic zero, it is clear that a polynomial of the form (X-a)^d has a non-trivial common factor with each of its d-1 first derivatives. The converse has been conjectured by Casas-Alvero. Up to now there have only been…
We prove a global effective membership result for polynomials on a non-reduced algebraic subvariety of $\C^N$. It can be seen as a global version of a recent local result of Sznajdman, generalizing the Brian\c{c}on-Skoda-Huneke theorem for…
A basic result in the elementary theory of continued fractions says that two real numbers share the same tail in their continued fraction expansions iff they belong to the same orbit under the projective action of PGL(2,Z). This result was…
We prove an analogue of the Lagrange Inversion Theorem for Dirichlet series. The proof is based on studying properties of Dirichlet convolution polynomials, which are analogues of convolution polynomials introduced by Knuth in [4].
This paper establishes an analogue of the special chain theorem for the embedding dimension of polynomial rings, with direct application on the (embedding) codimension. In particular, we recover a classic result on the transfer of…
In this paper we prove the Gromov--Milman conjecture (the Dvoretzky type theorem) for homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb R^n$, and improve bounds on the number $n(d,k)$ in the analogous conjecture for odd degrees $d$ (this case is known as…
Let $G$ be a group and $H_1$,...,$H_s$ be subgroups of $G$ of indices $d_1$,...,$d_s$ respectively. In 1974, M. Herzog and J. Sch\"onheim conjectured that if $\{H_i\alpha_i\}_{i=1}^{i=s}$, $\alpha_i\in G$, is a coset partition of $G$, then…
The expansion of a Schubert polynomial into slide polynomials corresponds to a sum over sub-balls in the subword complex. There has been recent interest in other, coarser, expansions of Schubert polynomials. We extend the methods used in…
Counterparts of several classical results of number theory are proven for the ring of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. A theorem of Milnor that determines the Witt ring of a function field is applied to prove an analogue of…
Let G be a finite p-subgroup of GL(V), where p = char(F), and V is finite-dimensional over the field F. Let S(V) be the symmetric algebra of V, S(V)^G the subring of G-invariants, and V* the F-dual space of V. The following presents our…
An involution over finite fields is a permutation polynomial whose inverse is itself. Owing to this property, involutions over finite fields have been widely used in applications such as cryptography and coding theory. As far as we know,…
The aim of this paper is to prove that Markov's theorem on variation of zeros of orthogonal polynomials on the real line [Math. Ann., 27:177-182,1886] remains essentially valid in the case of paraorthogonal polynomials on the unit circle.
We prove several results in the theory of fusion categories using the product (norm) and sum (trace) of Galois conjugates of formal codegrees. First, we prove that finitely-many fusion categories exist up to equivalence whose global…
