The factorizations of the polynomial $X^n-1$ and the cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ have been studied for a very long time. Explicit factorizations have been given for the case that $\mathrm{rad}(n)\mid…

Consider the real numbers $$ \ell_{n,k} = \ln\left( \tfrac{3}{2}\,k+\sqrt{\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\,k \right)^2 + 3\,n} \right) $$ and the intervals $\mathcal{L}_{n,k} = \left]\ell_{n,k}-\ln 3,\ell_{n,k}\right]$. For all $n \geq 1$, define $$…

Let $T$ be a linear operator on an $\mathbb{F}_q$-vector space $V$ of dimension $n$. For any divisor $m$ of $n$, an $m$-dimensional subspace $W$ of $V$ is $T$-splitting if $$ V =W\oplus TW\oplus \cdots \oplus T^{d-1}W, $$ where $d=n/m$. Let…

The partitions of the integers can be expressed exactly in an iterative and closed-form expression. This equation is derived from distributing the partitions of a number in a network that locates each partition in a unique and orderly…

We classify the Betti tables of indecomposable graded matrix factorizations over the simple elliptic singularity $f_\lambda = XY(X-Y)(X-\lambda Y)$ by making use of an associated weighted projective line of genus one.

In this work, we continue the line of research on the complexity of distributions (Viola, Journal of Computing 2012), and study samplers defined by low degree polynomials. An $n$-tuple $P = (P_1,\dots, P_n)$ of functions $P_i \colon…

A sharp bound is obtained for the number of ways to express the monomial $X^n$ as a product of linear factors over $\mathbb{Z}/p^{\alpha}\mathbb{Z}$. The proof relies on an induction-on-scale procedure which is used to estimate the number…

Let $k \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that factorization of integers into $k$ parts follows the Dirichlet distribution $\text{Dir}\left(\frac{1}{k},\ldots,\frac{1}{k}\right)$ by multidimensional contour integration, thereby generalizing…

Every finite group $G$ has a normal series each of whose factors is either a solvable group or a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The minimum number of nonsolvable factors attained on all possible such series is called the…

Given a set $S=\{x^2+c_1,\dots,x^2+c_s\}$ defined over a field and an infinite sequence $\gamma$ of elements of $S$, one can associate an arboreal representation to $\gamma$, generalizing the case of iterating a single polynomial. We study…

We create a sequence version of calculus. First, we define equivalence, some fundamental operations, differential, and integral for sequences. Then, we propose sequence versions of identity function, power function, exponential function,…

Consider a random polynomial $$ G_Q(x)=\xi_{Q,n}x^n+\xi_{Q,n-1}x^{n-1}+...+\xi_{Q,0} $$ with independent coefficients uniformly distributed on $2Q+1$ integer points $\{-Q, ..., Q\}$. Denote by $D(G_Q)$ the discriminant of $G_Q$. We show…

We study the splitting of the Goodwillie towers of functors in various settings. In particular, we produce splitting criteria for functors $F: \A \to M_A$ from a pointed category with coproducts to $A$-modules in terms of differentials of…

Let $p$ be a prime. Suppose that integers $r$, $e$, $d$ such that $r \ge 2$, $e \ge 0$, $0 \le d \le p$ are given. Let $f(x)=s_0 x^r + s_1 x^{r-1} + \cdots + s_r$ be a generic polynomial of degree $r$ in characteristic $p$. We put…

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…

Let $F=\{\mathbf{p}_0,\ldots,\mathbf{p}_n\}$ be a collection of points in $\mathbb{R}^d.$ The set $F$ naturally gives rise to a family of iterated function systems consisting of contractions of the form $$S_i(\mathbf{x})=\lambda \mathbf{x}…

Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…

We prove new arithmetic results for parametric linear recurrence sequences specialized at roots of unity, denoted by $(U_n(\zeta))_{n\geq 0}$. In particular, we obtain exponential lower bounds for the largest prime ideal divisor and norm of…

Let $p_{\textrm{dsd}} (n)$ be the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct squarefree divisors of $n$. In this note, we find a lower bound for $p_{\textrm{dsd}} (n)$, as well as a sequence of $n$ for which $p_{\textrm{dsd}} (n)$ is…

Let $f(x)$ be a monic polynomial over $\mathbb{Q}$ with complex roots $\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_n$. Linear relations among them and $1$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ play an important role when we study the distribution of roots modulo a prime. We study…
