We consider rational functions of the form $V(x)/U(x)$, where both $V(x)$ and $U(x)$ are polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Polynomials that permute the elements of a field, called {\it permutation polynomials ($PPs$)}, have…

Two proper polynomial maps $f_1, \,f_2 \colon \mC^n \lr \mC^n$ are said to be \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\Phi_1,\, \Phi_2 \in \textrm{Aut}(\mC^n)$ such that $f_2=\Phi_2 \circ f_1 \circ \Phi_1$. In this article we investigate proper…

It has been shown by Madden that there are only finitely many quadratic extensions of k(x), k a finite field, in which the ideal class group has exponent two and the infinity place of k(x) ramifies. We give a characterization of such fields…

We prove that, over any field, the dimension of the indeterminacy locus of a rational transformation $f$ of $P^n$ which is defined by monomials of the same degree $d$ with no common factors is at least $(n-2)/2$, provided that the degree of…

The number of square-free integers in $x$ consecutive values of any polynomial $f$ is conjectured to be $c_fx$, where the constant $c_f$ depends only on the polynomial $f$. This has been proven for degrees less or equal to 3. Granville was…

Let $S$ be the collection of quadratic polynomial maps, and degree $2$-rational maps whose automorphism groups are isomorphic to $C_2$ defined over the rational field. Assuming standard conjectures of Poonen and Manes on the period length…

In this paper, by using a powerful criterion for permutation polynomials given by Zieve, we give several classes of complete permutation monomials over $\F_{q^r}$. In addition, we present a class of complete permutation multinomials, which…

In this paper, we propose linear maps over the space of all polynomials $f(x)$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ that map $0$ to itself, through their evaluation map. Properties of these linear maps throw up interesting connections with permutation…

For K a field of characteristic 0 and d any integer number greater than or equal to 2, we prove the invertibility of polynomial endomorphisms of the affine space of dimension d over K of the form F=Id+H, where each coordinate of H is the…

Let K be a function field, let f be a rational function of degree d at least 2 defined over K, and suppose that f is not isotrivial. In this paper, we show that a point P in P^1(Kbar) has f-canonical height zero if and only if P is…

A non-zero constant Jacobian polynomial map $F=(P,Q):\mathbb{C}^2 \longrightarrow \mathbb{C}^2$ has a polynomial inverse if the component $P$ is a simple polynomial, i.e. if, when $P$ extended to a morphism $p:X\longrightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$…

We propose graph theoretic equivalents for existence of a finite projective plane. We then develop a new approach and see that the problem of existence of a finite projective plane of order n is linked up with a subset of sharply 2…

A graded Artinian algebra $A$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property if there exists a linear form $\ell$ such that the multiplication map by $\ell:[A]_i\to [A]_{i+1}$ has maximum rank in every degree. The linear forms satisfying this property…

We generalize Waldschmidt's bound for Leopoldt's defect and prove a similar bound for Gross's defect for an arbitrary extension of number fields. As an application, we prove new cases of Gross's finiteness conjecture (also known as the…

A $\textit{square-full}$ number is a positive integer for which all its prime divisors divide itself at least twice. The counting function of square-full integers of the form $f(n)$ for $n\leqslant N$ is denoted by…

Jones conjectures the arboreal representation of a degree two rational map will have finite index in the full automorphism group of a binary rooted tree except under certain conditions. We prove a version of Jones' Conjecture for quadratic…

It is shown that the rank-$k$ numerical range of every $n$-by-$n$ complex matrix is non-empty if $n \ge 3k - 2$. The proof is based on a recent characterization of the rank-$k$ numerical range by Li and Sze, the Helly's theorem on compact…

Let D be a bounded convex domain in C^N, N\geq 2. We prove that a continous map F from bD to C^N extends holomorphically through D if and only if for every polynomial map P from C^N to C^N such that F+P has no zero on bD, the degree of…

We prove that on $\mathbb{P}^{3}$ there is no exceptional bundle with rank $r=2d^{2}+1$ and degree $d$ for every $|d|\geq 4$. In particular, we find a new obstruction for the existence of exceptional bundles other than $r|(2d^{2}+1)$. We…

The paper studies completeness of the polynomials in weighted $L_p$-spaces on half line. It is shown that the completeness of polynomials does not hold for a wide class of weights, including the weights $\exp(- r t^q)$ with $r>0$ and $q\in…
