In this paper we give a conditional improvement to the Elekes-Szab\'{o} problem over the rationals, assuming the Uniformity Conjecture. Our main result states that for $F\in \mathbb{Q}[x,y,z]$ belonging to a particular family of…

A function defined on the Boolean hypercube is $k$-Fourier-sparse if it has at most $k$ nonzero Fourier coefficients. For a function $f: \mathbb{F}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and parameters $k$ and $d$, we prove a strong upper bound on the…

We generalize some previous results on random polynomials in several complex variables. A standard setting is to consider random polynomials $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_jp_j(z)$ that are linear combinations of basis polynomials $\{p_j\}$…

We prove that any pair of bivariate trinomials has at most 5 isolated roots in the positive quadrant. The best previous upper bounds independent of the polynomial degrees were much larger, e.g., 248832 (for just the non-degenerate roots)…

We prove new bounds on the Betti numbers of real varieties and semi-algebraic sets that have a more refined dependence on the degrees of the polynomials defining them than results known before. Our method also unifies several different…

We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…

We show that there is a defining equation of degree at most $\mathsf{poly}(n)$ for the (Zariski closure of the) set of the non-rigid matrices: that is, we show that for every large enough field $\mathbb{F}$, there is a non-zero…

Let $f\in\Bbb F_q[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ with $\deg f=d>0$ and let $Z(f)=\{(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in \Bbb F_q^n: f(x_1,\dots,x_n)=0\}$. Ax's theorem states that $|Z(f)|\equiv 0\pmod {q^{\lceil n/d\rceil-1}}$, that is, $\nu_p(|Z(f)|)\ge m(\lceil…

Let $V$ be the set of real common solutions to $F = (f_1, \ldots, f_s)$ in $\mathbb{R}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ and $D$ be the maximum total degree of the $f_i$'s. We design an algorithm which on input $F$ computes the dimension of $V$. Letting…

We study extreme values of Dirichlet polynomials with multiplicative coefficients, namely \[D_N(t) : = D_{f,\, N}(t)= \frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \sum_{n\leqslant N} f(n) n^{it}, \] where $f$ is a completely multiplicative function with $|f(n)|=1$…

Given convex polytopes $P_1,...,P_r$ in $R^n$ and finite subsets $W_I$ of the Minkowsky sums $P_I=\sum_{i \in I} P_i$, we consider the quantity $N(W)=\sum_{I \subset {\bf [}r {\bf ]}} {(-1)}^{r-|I|} \big| W_I \big|$. We develop a technique…

A pair of probability distributions over $\{0,1\}^n$ is said to be $(k,\delta)$-wise indistinguishable if all of the size $k$ marginals are within statistical distance at most $\delta$. Previous works introduced this concept and study when…

This paper solves the open problem on the sharp bound for the number of isolated solutions in $\mathbf{R}_*^n$ to the real system of $n$ polynomial equations in $n$ variables, i.e., the real $n$ by $n$ fewnomial system. For an unmixed…

General concept of a gradation slicing is used to analyze polynomial solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODE) with polynomial coefficients, ${\cal L}\psi=0$, where ${\cal L}=\sum_l p_l(z) d_z^l$, $p_l(z)$ are polynomials, $z$ is a…

We propose a symbolic-numeric algorithm to count the number of solutions of a polynomial system within a local region. More specifically, given a zero-dimensional system $f_1=\cdots=f_n=0$, with $f_i\in\mathbb{C}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, and a…

Necessary and sufficient conditions under which two real functions defined on the real interval can be separated by a polynomial are given. An immediate consequence of the main result is the existence of the polynomial separation of convex…

Let $\alpha\in(0,1)\setminus{\Bbb Q}$ and $K=\{(e^z,e^{\alpha z}):\,|z|\leq1\}\subset{\Bbb C}^2$. If $P$ is a polynomial of degree $n$ in ${\Bbb C}^2$, normalized by $\|P\|_K=1$, we obtain sharp estimates for $\|P\|_{\Delta^2}$ in terms of…
