Given a natural number $n \geq 4$ we show that there exists infinitely many polynomials $f_{n}(x):= \prod_{i=1}^{n} (x^{2} - a_{i})$ such that (i) $f_{n}(x)$ has a root modulo every positive integer, (ii) $f_{n}(x)$ has no rational roots,…

Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to…

Motivated by the problem of bounding the number of rays of plane tropical curves we study the following question: Given $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and a unimodular $2$-simplex $\Delta$ what is the maximal number of vertices a lattice polytope…

We demonstrate, using character sum arguments, the existence of primitive polynomials of degree n over a finite field GF(q) with the coefficients for x^(n-1), x^(n-2), and x^(n-3) prescribed, so long as char(GF(q)) is at least 5 and n is at…

An $n$-independent set in two dimensions is a set of nodes admitting (not necessarily unique) bivariate interpolation with polynomials of total degree at most $n.$ For an arbitrary $n$-independent node set $\mathcal X$ we are interested…

We contribute to the exceptional APN conjecture by showing that no polynomial of degree m = 2 r (2 {\ell} + 1) where gcd(r, {\ell}) 2, r 2, {\ell} 1 with a nonzero second leading coefficient can be APN over infinitely many extensions of the…

In this note, we show that real line arrangements of type at most one, admitting only intersection points of multiplicity at most five, satisfy certain boundedness properties. In particular, we prove that a free real arrangement of $d$…

We study the problem of reconstructing a function on a manifold satisfying some mild conditions, given data on the values and some derivatives of the function at arbitrary points on the manifold. While the problem of finding a polynomial of…

Lower bounds are given for the number of non-real zeros of a second order linear differential polynomial with constant coefficients in a real entire function with finitely many non-real zeros.

The determinantal complexity of a polynomial $P \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is the dimension of the smallest matrix $M$ whose entries are affine functions in $\mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ such that $P =…

We show the existence of systems of n polynomial equations in n variables, with a total of n+k+1 distinct monomial terms, possessing [n/k+1]^k nondegenerate positive solutions. (Here, [x] is the integer part of a positive number x.) This…

We show, assuming Schanuel's conjecture, that every irreducible complex polynomial in two variables where both variables appear has infinitely many algebraically independent solutions of the form (z,e^z).

In this paper, I have proved that for a class of polynomial differential systems of degree n+1 ( where n is an arbitrary positive integer) the composition conjecture is true. I give the sufficient and necessary conditions for these…

We show that for fixed $d>3$ and $n$ growing to infinity there are at least $(n!)^{d-2 \pm o(1)}$ different labeled combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices. This is about the square of the previous best lower bounds. As an…

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…

It is well-known that for any non-constant polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients the sequence $(P(n))_{ n\in \mathbb N}$ has the property that there are infinitely many prime numbers dividing at least one term of this sequence.…
