A planar node set $\mathcal X,$ with $\#\mathcal X=\binom{n+2}{2},$ is called $GC_n$ set if each node possesses fundamental polynomial in form of a product of $n$ linear factors. We say that a node uses a line if the line is a factor of the…

Let F(n) be a polynomial of degree at least 2 with integer coefficients. We consider the products N_x=\prod_{1 \le n \le x} F(n) and show that N_x should only rarely be a perfect power. In particular, the number of x \le X for which N_x is…
The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…
Given a natural number $n \geq 4$ we show that there exists infinitely many polynomials $f_{n}(x):= \prod_{i=1}^{n} (x^{2} - a_{i})$ such that (i) $f_{n}(x)$ has a root modulo every positive integer, (ii) $f_{n}(x)$ has no rational roots,…

Consider the $n$th degree polynomial equation, $X^n+A_{n-1}X^{n-1}+...+A_1X+A_0=0$ over the ring of 2 by 2 complex matrices. If this equation has more than ${2n \choose 2}$ solutions, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show here that…
