The polynomials $x^n + (1-x)^n + a^n$ arise naturally from FLT (Fermat's Last Theorem). We formulate a conjecture about them which is a generalization of FLT. We investigate the complex roots of these polynomials, and our main result is…

Given a real cubic function $f(x)$ with three roots, take an equilateral triangle $ABC$, the projections of which vertices are the roots of $f(x)$. There is a folklore fact that the vertical lines through the extrema of $f(x)$ are tangent…

Given a linear recurrence of the form $c_n=a_1c_{n-1}+\cdots+a_j c_{n-j}$, it is well-known that $c_n=\sum_{r}p_r(n)r^n$, where the sum is taken over the set of characteristic roots and each $p_r(n)$ is some polynomial. We give a closed…

Let RX_{k,n}^l be the space consisting of all (n+1)-tuples (p_0(z),...,p_n(z)) of monic polynomials over R of degree k and such that there are at most l roots common to all p_i(z). In this paper, we prove a stable splitting of RX_{k,n}^l.

We study various statistical properties of real roots of three different classes of random polynomials which recently attracted a vivid interest in the context of probability theory and quantum chaos. We first focus on gap probabilities on…
