We produce generalizations of Iwasawa's `Riemann-Hurwitz' formula for number fields. These generalizations apply to cyclic extensions of number fields of degree p^n for any positive integer n. We first deduce some congruences and…

Within the framework of mappings between affine spaces, the notion of $n$-th polarization of a function will lead to an intrinsic characterization of polynomial functions. We prove that the characteristic features of derivations, such as…

We establish an analogue of the fundamental theorem of algebra for polynomial matrix equations, in which the matrices-coefficients and unknown matrix are assumed to be circulant matrices.

We define an infinite sequence of generalizations, parametrized by an integer $m \ge 1$, of the Stieltjes--Rogers and Thron--Rogers polynomials; they arise as the power-series expansions of some branched continued fractions, and as the…

We consider products of $n$ random Hermitian matrices which generalize the one-matrix model and show its relation to Hurwitz numbers which count ramified coverings of certain type. Namely, these Hurwitz numbers count $2k$-fold ramified…

We consider the local eigenvalue distribution of large self-adjoint $N\times N$ random matrices $\mathbf{H}=\mathbf{H}^*$ with centered independent entries. In contrast to previous works the matrix of variances $s_{ij} = \mathbb{E}\,…

We define \emph{generalized standard triples} $\mathbf{X}$, $\mathbf{Y}$, and $L(z) = z\mathbf{C}_{1} - \mathbf{C}_{0}$, where $L(z)$ is a linearization of a regular matrix polynomial $\mathbf{P}(z) \in \mathbb{C}^{n \times n}[z]$, in order…

We prove the irreducibility of the Hurwitz spaces which parametrize Galois coverings of P^1 whose Galois group is an arbitrary Weyl group and the local monodromies are reflections. This generalizes a classical theorem due to Clebsch and…

A theorem of Hunter ensures that the complete homogeneous symmetric polynomials of even degree are positive definite functions. A probabilistic interpretation of Hunter's theorem suggests a broad generalization: the construction of…

We show that tautological integrals on Hilbert schemes of points can be written in terms of universal polynomials in Chern numbers. The results hold in all dimensions, though they strengthen known results even for surfaces by allowing…

The paper studies the generic complex 1-dimensional polynomial vector fields of the form $iP(z)\frac{\partial}{\partial z}$, where $P$ is a polynomial with real coefficients, under topological orbital equivalence preserving the separatrices…

For the two sixth-order polynomials $a(s)$ and $b(s),$ Hurwitz stability of their convex combination is necessary and sufficient for the existence of a polynomial $c(s)$ such that $c(s)/a(s)$ and $c(s)/b(s)$ are both strictly positive real.…

The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem says that a general collection of $k$ double points in ${\bf P}^n$ imposes independent conditions on homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ with a well known list of exceptions. We generalize this theorem to…

Hurwitz spaces are moduli of isotopy classes of covers. A specific space is formed from a finite group G and C, r of its conjugacy classes and an equivalence relation \dagger. Components, interpret as a braid orbits on Nielsen classes.…

Rosenbrock's theorem on polynomial system matrices is a classical result in linear systems theory that relates the Smith-McMillan form of a rational matrix $G$ with the Smith forms of an irreducible polynomial system matrix $P$ giving rise…

We extend the Faulhaber formula to the whole complex plane, obtaining an expression that fully resembles the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula, only it's exact. Thereafter, an expression for the generalized harmonic progressions valid in…

We study the action of the group of polynomial automorphisms of C^n (n>2) which preserve the Markoff-Hurwitz polynomial H(x):= x_1^2 + x_2^2 + ... + x_n^2 - x_1 x_2 ... x_n. Our main results include the determination of the group, the…

Given a square matrix $A$, Brauer's theorem [Duke Math. J. 19 (1952), 75--91] shows how to modify one single eigenvalue of $A$ via a rank-one perturbation, without changing any of the remaining eigenvalues. We reformulate Brauer's theorem…

Guardian maps are scalar maps that vanish when a matrix or polynomial is on the verge of stability. Several guardian maps have been proposed in the literature for Hurwitz stability based on the Kronecker sum, the second lower Schl\"aflian…
