We show that for any set of n distinct points in the complex plane, there exists a polynomial p of degree at most n+1 so that the corresponding Newton map, or even the relaxed Newton map, for p has the given points as a super-attracting…
Let $\mathbf{K}$ be a field and $\phi$, $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_s)$ in $\mathbf{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be multivariate polynomials (with $s < n$) invariant under the action of $\mathcal{S}_n$, the group of permutations of $\{1, \dots,…
In this paper we introduce a new approach and obtain new results for the problem of studying polynomial images of affine subspaces of finite fields. We improve and generalise several previous known results, and also extend the range of such…
[Inserted by J. Maurice Rojas] We give a formula for the number of complex roots of a generic system of two polynomial equations in two unknowns. The formula is completely combinatorial, ultimately depending just on the convex hull of the…
We consider the problem of computing matrix polynomials $p(X)$, where $X$ is a large dense matrix, with as few matrix-matrix multiplications as possible. More precisely, let $\Pi_{2^{m}}^*$ represent the set of polynomials computable with…
Consider a semi-algebraic set A in R^d constructed from the sets which are determined by inequalities p_i(x)>0, p_i(x)\ge 0, or p_i(x)=0 for a given list of polynomials p_1,...,p_m. We prove several statements that fit into the following…
Let f be a non constant meromorphic function and a(not identically zero or infinity) be a meromorphic function satisfying T(r,a) = o(T(r,f)) as r tends to infinity, and p(z) be a polynomial of degree n greater than or equal to 1 with p(0) =…
We characterize the fixed divisor of a polynomial $f(X)$ in $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ by looking at the contraction of the powers of the maximal ideals of the overring ${\rm Int}(\mathbb{Z})$ containing $f(X)$. Given a prime $p$ and a positive…
We consider polynomials of bi-degree $(n,1)$ over the skew field of quaternions where the indeterminates commute with each other and with all coefficients. Polynomials of this type do not generally admit factorizations. We recall a…
Let $f\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ be quadratic or cubic polynomial. We prove that there exists an integer $G_f\geq 2$ such that for every integer $k\geq G_f$ one can find infinitely many integers $n\geq 0$ with the property that none of…
In this note, it is shown that the differential polynomial of the form $Q(f)^{(k)}-p$ has infinitely many zeros, and particularly $Q(f)^{(k)}$ has infinitely many fixed points for any positive integer $k$, where $f$ is a transcendental…
Let $p$ be a multilinear polynomial in several non-commuting variables with coefficients in an arbitrary field $K$. Kaplansky conjectured that for any $n$, the image of $p$ evaluated on the set $M_n(K)$ of $n$ by $n$ matrices is a vector…
The functional decomposition of polynomials has been a topic of great interest and importance in pure and computer algebra and their applications. The structure of compositions of (suitably normalized) polynomials f=g(h) over finite fields…
We consider a generic family of polynomial maps $f:=(f_1,f_2):\mathbb{C}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{C}^2$ with given supports of polynomials, and degree $ d(f):=\max (deg f_1, deg f_2)$. We show that the (non-) properness of maps $f$ in this…
The classical volume polynomial in algebraic geometry measures the degrees of ample (and nef) divisors on a smooth projective variety. We introduce an analogous volume polynomial for matroids, and give a complete combinatorial formula. For…
Following work of Bugeaud, Corvaja, and Zannier for integers, Ailon and Rudnick prove that for any multiplicatively independent polynomials, $a, b \in {\mathbb C}[x]$, there is a polynomial $h$ such that for all $n$, we have \[ \gcd(a^n -…
This is a straightforward introduction to the properties of polynomials in many variables that do not vanish in the open upper half plane. Such polynomials generalize many of the well-known properties of polynomials with all real roots.
Sergey Pinchuk discovered a class of pairs of real polynomials in two variables that have a nowhere vanishing Jacobian determinant and define maps of the real plane to itself that are not one-to-one. This paper describes the asymptotic…
This paper is an enhancement of the previous note "Explicit computations of Zariski decompositions on P_Z^1". In this paper, we observe several properties of a certain kind of an arithmetic divisor D on the n-dimensional projective space…
Let $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ be monic of degree $N\ge 2$. Suppose that $f(x)$ is monogenic, and that $f(x)$ is the characteristic polynomial of the $N$th order linear recurrence sequence $\Upsilon_f:=(U_n)_{n\ge 0}$ with initial conditions…
