We study the bias of random bounded-degree polynomials over odd prime fields and show that, with probability exponentially close to 1, such polynomials have exponentially small bias. This also yields an exponential tail bound on the weight…

In this survey we consider polynomial optimization problems, asking to minimize a polynomial function over a compact semialgebraic set, defined by polynomial inequalities. This models a great variety of (in general, nonlinear nonconvex)…

In this paper, we study the arithmetics of skew polynomial rings over finite fields, mostly from an algorithmic point of view. We give various algorithms for fast multiplication, division and extended Euclidean division. We give a precise…

We consider the computation of roots of polynomials expressed in the Chebyshev basis. We extend the QR iteration presented in [Eidelman, Y., Gemignani, L., and Gohberg, I., Numer. Algorithms, 47.3 (2008): pp. 253-273] introducing an…

This paper presents an algorithm for generating all imaginary and unusual discriminants up to a fixed degree bound that define a quadratic function field of positive 3-rank. Our method makes use of function field adaptations of a method due…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In…

We introduce the notion of semi-characteristic polynomial for a semi-linear map of a finite- dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic p. This polynomial has some properties in common with the classical characteristic…

We consider multilinear Littlewood polynomials, polynomials in $n$ variables in which a specified set of monomials $U$ have $\pm 1$ coefficients, and all other coefficients are $0$. We provide upper and lower bounds (which are close for $U$…

In the present paper we generate binary pseudorandom sequences using generalized polynomials. A generalized polynomial is a function in whose description we not only allow addition and product (as it is the case in usual polynomials) but…

Let $P: \F \times \F \to \F$ be a polynomial of bounded degree over a finite field $\F$ of large characteristic. In this paper we establish the following dichotomy: either $P$ is a moderate asymmetric expander in the sense that $|P(A,B)|…

We seek random versions of some classical theorems on complex approximation by polynomials and rational functions, as well as investigate properties of random compact sets in connection to complex approximation.

We study numerical integration of functions $f: \mathbb{R}^{s} \to \mathbb{R}$ with respect to a probability measure. By applying the corresponding inverse cumulative distribution function, the problem is transformed into integrating an…

With probability 1, we assess the average behaviour of various arithmetic functions at the values of degree d polynomials f that are ordered by height. This allows us to establish averaged versions of the Bateman-Horn conjecture, the…

Random feature approximation is arguably one of the most popular techniques to speed up kernel methods in large scale algorithms and provides a theoretical approach to the analysis of deep neural networks. We analyze generalization…

A degree-$d$ polynomial $p$ in $n$ variables over a field $\F$ is {\em equidistributed} if it takes on each of its $|\F|$ values close to equally often, and {\em biased} otherwise. We say that $p$ has a {\em low rank} if it can be expressed…
