The real type of a finite family of univariate polynomials characterizes the combined sign behavior of the polynomials over the real line. We derive an explicit formula for the number of real types subject to given degree bounds. For the…

We examine two different ways of encoding a counting function, as a rational generating function and explicitly as a function (defined piecewise using the greatest integer function). We prove that, if the degree and number of input…

Polynomials whose zeros are symmetric either to the real line or to the unit circle are very important in mathematics and physics. We can classify them into three main classes: the self-conjugate polynomials, whose zeros are symmetric to…

We compute the generating function for the characters of the irreducible representations of SU(n) whose associated Young diagrams have only two rows with the same number of boxes. The result is a rational determinantal expression in which…

We prove that for any fixed d the generating function of the projection of the set of integer points in a rational d-dimensional polytope can be computed in polynomial time. As a corollary, we deduce that various interesting sets of lattice…

We establish an alternative, ``perpendicular" collection of generating functions for the coefficients of Gaussian polynomials, $\begin{bmatrix}N+m\\m\end{bmatrix}_q$. We provide a general characterization of these perpendicular generating…

The probability that a zero of a random real polynomial of increasing degree is real tends to zero. However, passing from polynomials to Laurent polynomials yields a surprising result: the probability that a root is real tends not to zero,…

Following the work of Asai, Kaneko, and Ninomiya for Faber polynomials associated to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$, and Bannai, Kojima, and Miezaki's partial proof for the case of $\Gamma_0^*(2)$, we show that the zeros of certain modular…

Laguerre's theorem regarding the number of non-real zeros of a polynomial and its image under certain linear operators is generalized. This generalization is then used to (1) exhibit a number of previously undiscovered complex zero…

Given a sequence of orthogonal polynomials $(p_n)_n$ with respect to a positive measure in the real line, we study the real zeros of finite combinations of $K+1$ consecutive orthogonal polynomials of the form $$…

This paper seeks to further explore the distribution of the real roots of random polynomials with non-centered coefficients. We focus on polynomials where the typical values of the coefficients have power growth and count the average number…
