A Lie polynomial is an element of a free Lie algebra $\mathcal F_k$ on $k$-generators, which defines a Lie map on a given Lie algebra $L$, by substituting $k$-elements of $L$. Similar to word maps on groups and polynomial maps on algebras,…
For a given quadratic equation with any number of unknowns in any free group F, with right-hand side an arbitrary element of F, an algorithm for solving the problem of the existence of a solution was given by Culler. The problem has been…
Consider a system of two polynomial equations in two variables: $$F(X,Y)=G(X,Y)=0$$ where $F \in \rr[X,Y]$ has degree $d \geq 1$ and $G \in \rr[X,Y]$ has $t$ monomials. We show that the system has only $O(d^3t+d^2t^3)$ real solutions when…
We prove that the Reeb space of a proper definable map $f:X \rightarrow Y$ in an arbitrary o-minimal expansion of a real closed field is realizable as a proper definable quotient. This result can be seen as an o-minimal analog of Stein…
Let $P \in \mathbb{Z} [X, Y]$ be a given square-free polynomial of total degree $d$ with integer coefficients of bitsize less than $\tau$, and let $V_{\mathbb{R}} (P) := \{ (x,y) \in \mathbb{R}^2, P (x,y) = 0 \}$ be the real planar…
An open problem about two new families of orthogonal polynomials was posed by Alhaidari. Here we will identify one of them as Wilson polynomials. The other family seems to be new but we show that they are discrete orthogonal polynomials on…
We study solutions of a homogeneous quadratic equation $q(x_0,\dots, x_n)=0$, defined over a field $K$, where the $x_i$ are themselves homogeneous polynomials of some degree $d$ in $r+1$ variables. Equivalently, we are looking at rational…
The zero set of a real polynomial in two variable is a curve in $\mathbb R^2$. For a generic choice of its coefficients this is a non-singular curve, a collection of circles and lines properly embedded in $\mathbb R^2$. What topological…
Let $F_1,\ldots,F_R$ be homogeneous polynomials of degree $d\ge 2$ with integer coefficients in $n$ variables, and let $\mathbf{F}=(F_1,\ldots,F_R)$. Suppose that $F_1,\ldots,F_R$ is a non-singular system and $n\ge 4^{d+2}d^2R^5$. We prove…
We determine all permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r A(X^{q-1}) where, for some Q which is a power of the characteristic of F_q, the integer r is congruent to Q+1 (mod q+1) and all terms of A(X) have degrees in {0, 1, Q,…
A polynomial transformation of the real plane $\Bbb R^2$ is a mapping $\Bbb R^2\to\Bbb R^2$ given by two polynomials of two variables. Such a transformation is called quadratic if the degrees of its polynomials are not greater than two. In…
Let $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_R)$ be a system of polynomials with integer coefficients in which the degrees need not all be the same. We provide sufficient conditions for which the system of equations $f_j (x_1, \ldots, x_n) = 0 \ (1…
We prove a quantitative Roth-type theorem for polynomial corners in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let $P_1$ and $P_2$ be two linearly independent polynomials with zero constant term. We show that any measurable subset of $[0,1]^2$ with positive measure…
We show that the effective factorization of Ore polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is still an open problem. This is so because the known algorithm in [1] presents two gaps, and therefore it does not cover all the examples. We amend one of…
In this paper, we give improved bounds for the computational complexity of computing with planar algebraic curves. More specifically, for arbitrary coprime polynomials $f$, $g \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]$ and an arbitrary polynomial $h \in…
Let K be a field of any characteristic and let R be an algebra generated by two elements satisfying quadratic equations. Then R is a homomorphic image of F=K<x,y | x^2+ax+b=0,y^2+cy+d=0> for suitable a,b,c,d in K. We establish that F can be…
There are three families of bivariate polynomial maps associated with the rank-$2$ simple complex Lie algebras $A_2, B_2 \cong C_2$ and $G_2$. It is known that the bivariate polynomial map associated with $A_2$ induces a permutation of…

We construct, for every even dimensional sphere $S^n$, $n >1$, and every odd integer $k$, a homogeneous polynomial map $f: S^{n}\to S^{n}$ of Brouwer degree $k$ and algebraic degree $2|k|-1$.
We study the minimization of fixed-degree polynomials over the simplex. This problem is well-known to be NP-hard, as it contains the maximum stable set problem in graph theory as a special case. In this paper, we consider a rational…
