The divisibility and congruence of usual and generalized central trinomial coefficients have been extensively investigated. The present paper is devoted to analytic properties of these numbers. We show that usual central trinomial…

Several polytopes arise from finite graphs. For edge and symmetric edge polytopes, in particular, exhaustive computation of the Ehrhart polynomials not merely supports the conjecture of Beck {\it et al.}\ that all roots $\alpha$ of Ehrhart…

If a real polynomial $f(x)=p(x^2)+xq(x^2)$ is Hurwitz stable (every root if $f$ lies in the open left half-plane), then the Hermite-Biehler Theorem says that the polynomials $p(-x^2)$ and $q(-x^2)$ have interlacing real roots. We extend…

We present a practical implementation based on Newton's method to find all roots of several families of complex polynomials of degrees exceeding one billion ($10^9$) so that the observed complexity to find all roots is between $O(d\ln d)$…

We study the polynomials $x^n + (1-x)^n + a^n, a \in\mathbb{Q}$, whose rational roots would yield counterexamples to Fermat's Last Theorem. We investigate their factorization over $\mathbb{Q}$. In the case $a \notin \{0, \pm 1\}$, we ask…

This paper deals with the problem of numerically computing the roots of polynomials $p_k(x)$, $k=1,2,\ldots$, of degree $n=2^k-1$ recursively defined by $p_1(x)=x+1$, $p_k(x)=xp_{k-1}(x)^2+1$. An algorithm based on the Ehrlich-Aberth…

We study the irreducibility of Wronskian Hermite polynomials labelled by partitions. It is known that these polynomials factor as a power of x times a remainder polynomial. We show that the remainder polynomial is irreducible for the…

It is well-known that the coordinator polynomials of the classical root lattice of type $A_n$ and those of type $C_n$ are real-rooted. They can be obtained, either by the Aissen-Schoenberg-Whitney theorem, or from their recurrence…

We prove the classical result, which goes back at least to Fourier, that a polynomial with real coefficients has all zeros real and distinct if and only if the polynomial and also all of its nonconstant derivatives have only negative minima…

For any fixed positive integer $n$, we study the root distribution of a sequence of polynomials $H_{m}(z)$ satisfying the rational generating function \[ \sum_{m=0}^{\infty}H_{m}(z)t^{m}=\frac{1}{1+B(z)t+A(z)t^{n}} \] where $A(z)$ and…

We consider a class of real random polynomials, indexed by an integer d, of large degree n and focus on the number of real roots of such random polynomials. The probability that such polynomials have no real root in the interval [0,1]…

The probability that a zero of a random real polynomial of increasing degree is real tends to zero. However, passing from polynomials to Laurent polynomials yields a surprising result: the probability that a root is real tends not to zero,…

We prove Dirichlet's theorem for polynomial rings: Let F be a pseudo algebraically closed field. Then for all relatively prime polynomials a(X), b(X)\in F[X] and for every sufficiently large positive integer n there exist infinitely many…

In this paper, we first consider the graph of $(F_1,F_{2},\cdots,F_{n})$ on $\overline{\mathbb{D}}^{n},$ where $F_{j}(z)=\bar{z}^{m_{j}}_{j}+R_{j}(z),j=1,2,\cdots,n,$ which has non-isolated CR-singularities if $m_{j}>1$ for some…

Following a systematic analysis of existing results, we investigate when complete interlacing between the zeros of distinct polynomial sequences, $\{\mathcal{P}_n\}$ and $\{\mathcal{G}_n\}$ can be achieved by using a naturally arising extra…

We construct parametric families of (monic) reducible polynomials having two roots very close to each other.

In this paper, we prove that if $f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}a_kx^k$ is a polynomial with real zeros only, then the sequence $\{a_k\}_{k=0}^n$ satisfies the following inequalities $a_{k+1}^2(1-\sqrt{1-c_k})^2/a_k^2…

We present algorithmic, complexity and implementation results for the problem of isolating the real roots of a univariate polynomial in $B_{\alpha} \in L[y]$, where $L=\QQ(\alpha)$ is a simple algebraic extension of the rational numbers. We…

We have developed a heuristic showing that in the Dirichlet divisor problem for the almost all $n \in \mathbb{N}^{+}$: $$ R(n) \leq O(\psi(n)n^{\frac{1}{4}}) $$ where $$ R(n) = \Big\lvert \sum_{x=1}^{n}\Big\lfloor\frac{n}{x}\Big\rfloor -…
