We find a new Zariski pair with non-isomorphic fundamental groups that consists of degree $ 8 $ conic-line arrangements. Each arrangement has three conics and two lines. We use the Zariski-van Kampen Theorem and some known Coxeter groups to…

We study the dynamics of algebraic families of maps on $\mathbb{P}^N$, over the field $\mathbb{C}$ of complex numbers, and the geometry of their preperiodic points. The goal of this note is to formulate a conjectural characterization of the…

A Chebyshev curve C(a,b,c,\phi) has a parametrization of the form x(t)=Ta(t); y(t)=T_b(t) ; z(t)= Tc(t + \phi), where a,b,c are integers, Tn(t) is the Chebyshev polynomial of degree n and \phi \in \RR. When C(a,b,c,\phi) has no double…

We give a general criterion for Zariski degeneration of integral points in the complement of a divisor $D$ with $n$ components in a variety of dimension $n$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ or over a quadratic imaginary field. The key condition is…

By using the work of Frantzikinakis and Wierdl, we can see that for all $d\in\mathbb{N}$, $\alpha\in(d,d+1)$, and integers $k\ge d+2$ and $r\ge1$, there exist infinitely many $n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that the sequence…

We consider a polynomial $P\in \mathbb{R}[x_{1},\cdots, x_{d}]$ of degree $ \delta $ that depends non-trivially on each of $x_1,...,x_d$ with $d\geq 2$. For any integer $t$ with $2\leq t\leq d$, any natural number $n \in \mathbb{N}$, and…

We consider the class ${\cal A}$ of graphs that contain no odd hole, no antihole, and no "prism" (a graph consisting of two disjoint triangles with three disjoint paths between them). We prove that every graph $G\in{\cal A}$ different from…

For any two $n$-$th$ order polynomials $a(s)$ and $b(s),$ the 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…

Let $D$ denote the set of directions determined by the graph of a polynomial $f$ of $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, where $q$ is a power of the prime $p$. If $D$ is contained in a multiplicative subgroup $M$ of $\mathbb{F}_q^\times$, then by a result of…

Let $(G,+)$ be an abelian group and consider a subset $A \subseteq G$ with $|A|=k$. Given an ordering $(a_1, \ldots, a_k)$ of the elements of $A$, define its {\em partial sums} by $s_0 = 0$ and $s_j = \sum_{i=1}^j a_i$ for $1 \leq j \leq…

Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…

Let $\bar{X}_{n}=(x_{1},\ldots,x_{n})$ and $\sigma_{i}(\bar{X}_{n})=\sum x_{k_{1}}\ldots x_{k_{i}}$ be $i$-th elementary symmetric polynomial. In this note we prove that there are infinitely many triples of integers $a, b, c$ such that for…

Let $k$ be a Brauer field, that is, a field over which every diagonal form in sufficiently many variables has a nonzero solution; for instance, $k$ could be an imaginary quadratic number field. Brauer proved that if $f_1, \ldots, f_r$ are…

In a recent breakthrough Kelley and Meka proved a quasipolynomial upper bound for the density of sets of integers without non-trivial three-term arithmetic progressions. We present a simple modification to their method that strengthens…

We present a new probabilistic algorithm to find a finite set of points intersecting the closure of each connected component of the realization of every sign condition over a family of real polynomials defining regular hypersurfaces that…

We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…

Let $S$ be the collection of quadratic polynomial maps, and degree $2$-rational maps whose automorphism groups are isomorphic to $C_2$ defined over the rational field. Assuming standard conjectures of Poonen and Manes on the period length…

We consider the classical problems of interpolating a polynomial given a black box for evaluation, and of multiplying two polynomials, in the setting where the bit-lengths of the coefficients may vary widely, so-called unbalanced…

Kazhdan and Lusztig define, for an arbitrary Coxeter system $(W,S)$, a family of polynomials indexed by pairs of elements of $W$. Despite their relevance and elementary definition, the explicit computation of these polynomials is still one…
