Let $s\geq 8$ be an integer and $P$ be a set of primes with relative lower density greater than $\sqrt{1-\min\{s,16\}/32}$. We prove that every sufficiently large integer $n\equiv s({\rm mod}24)$ can be represented by a sum of $s$ squares…

Denoting by V(n) the number of regular integers $(\text{mod}n)$, we study properties of the sequences $\displaystyle \biggl(\frac{V(n+1)}{V(n)}\biggr)_{n\geq1}$ and $\displaystyle (V(n+1)-V(n))_{n\geq1}$. We also prove that the sets…

We study polynomials with integer coefficients which become Eisenstein polynomials after the additive shift of a variable. We call such polynomials shifted Eisenstein polynomials. We determine an upper bound on the maximum shift that is…

Call a monic integer polynomial exceptional if it has a root modulo all but a finite number of primes, but does not have an integer root. We classify all irreducible monic integer polynomials $h$ for which there is an irreducible monic…

The Wiener polynomial of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $W(G;x)=\sum x^{d(u,v)}$, where $d(u,v)$ denotes the distance between $u$ and $v$, and the sum is taken over all unordered pairs of distinct vertices of $G$. We examine the nature…

A conjecture of Odoni stated over Hilbertian fields $K$ of characteristic zero asserts that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a polynomial $f\in K[x]$ of degree $d$ such that for every positive integer $n$, each iterate $f^{\circ…

A polynomial with integer coefficients yields a family of dynamical systems indexed by primes as follows: for any prime $p$, reduce its coefficients mod $p$ and consider its action on the field $\mathbb{F}_p$. We say a subset of…

We prove that if a polynomial has a root mod $p$ for every large prime $p$, then it has a real root. As an application, we show that the primes can't be covered by finitely many positive definite binary quadratic forms.

We classify the polynomials with integral coefficients that, when evaluated on a group element of finite order $n$, define a unit in the integral group ring for infinitely many positive integers $n$. We show that this happens if and only if…

We use generating functions over group rings to count polynomials over finite fields with the first few coefficients prescribed and a factorization pattern prescribed. In particular, we obtain different exact formulas for the number of…

It is shown by the author in [J. Lie Theory 29:4, 1045-1070, 2019] that for every connected linear complex Lie group the algebra of polynomials (regular functions) is dense in the algebra of holomorphic functions of exponential type.…

We show that any subset of the natural numbers with positive logarithmic Banach density contains a set that is within a factor of two of a geometric progression, improving the bound on a previous result of the authors. Density conditions on…

We give density results for automorphic representations of Hilbert modular groups. In particular, we show that there are infinitely many automorphic representations that have a prescribed discrete series factor at some (but not all) real…

For an arbitrary positive integer n, we construct infinitely many one-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds where each manifold's A-polynomial detects every n-th root of unity. This answers a question of Cooper, Culler, Gillet, Long, and Shalen as…

In this paper, we prove a number of results providing either necessary or sufficient conditions guaranteeing that the number of real roots of real polynomials of a given degree is either less or greater than a given number. We also provide…

We establish a result linking the Bouniakowsky conjecture and the density of polynomial roots to prime moduli.

We consider polynomials on the intersection of the closed positive orthant with the height-$1$ level hypersurface of certain polynomials with positive coefficients. We show that any polynomial strictly positive on such a semi-algebraic set…

We show that for any positive integer $h$, either $h$ or $h+1$ is a height of some cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$, where $n$ is a product of three distinct primes.

In this paper we study how the number of integer points in a polytope grows as we dilate the polytope. We prove new and essentially tight bounds on this quantity by specifically studying dilates of the Hadamard polytope. Our motivation for…

In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the density of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ with squarefree discriminant over various subsets of the set of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of fixed degree. We compute the…
