Hilbert's Nullstellensatz is a fundamental result in algebraic geometry that gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite collection of multivariate polynomials to have a common zero in an algebraically closed field. Associated…

Let $a\in \mathbb{R}^{+}\backslash\left\{0\right\}$ and $M\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider the equation $t^M-a=0$, which is equivalent to $1-\frac{t^M}{a}=0\,.$ The real solution is $\sqrt[M]{a}$. In this publication, we present a method that…

Using the properties of the ideal of the coordinate Hermite interpolation on n-dimensional grid [4], we prove that the extension k in k[x1, x2, ..., xn] / (f1(x1), ..., fn(xn)) has a primitive element if and only if at most one of the…

A closed subgroup H of the affine, algebraic group G is called observable if G/H is a quasi-affine algebraic variety. In this paper we define the notion of an observable subgroup of the affine, algebraic monoid M. We prove that a subgroup H…

We initiate a classification of complex polynomials f of degree d having the top Betti number of the general fibre close to the maximum. We find a range in which the polynomial must have isolated singularities and another range where it may…

Given an Archimedean vector lattice $E$, we present one elementary property of $E$ which is equivalent to the entire traditional list of axioms which makes $E$ a $\Phi$-algebra. We call a vector lattice with this property ``square closed".…

Let $\frak g$ be a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and $\frak k$ be a reductive in $\frak g$-subalgebra. Let $M$ be a finitely generated (possibly, infinite-dimensional) $\frak g$-module. We say…

The matrix Fej\'er-Riesz theorem characterizes positive semidefinite matrix polynomials on the real line. In the previous work of the second-named author this was extended to the characterization on arbitrary closed semialgebraic sets $K$…

Let F be a number field, and let F\subset K be a field extension of degree n. Suppose that we are given 2r sufficiently general linear polynomials in r variables over F. Let X be the variety over F such that the F-points of X bijectively…

Let d>2 and let p be a prime coprime to d. Let Z_pbar be the ring of integers of Q_pbar. Suppose f(x) is a degree-d polynomial over Qbar and Z_pbar. Let P be a prime ideal over p in the ring of integers of Q(f), where Q(f) is the number…

In the context of applying the Lorentz group theory to polarization optics in the frames of Stokes-Mueller formalism, some properties of the Lorentz group are investigated. We start with the factorized form of arbitrary Lorentz matrix as a…

Let $X$ be a closed subvariety of an abelian variety $A$ over a global function field $k$ such that the base change of $A$ to an algebraic closure does not have any positive dimensional isotrivial quotient. We prove that every adelic point…

We study the dynamics of polynomial-like mappings in several variables. A special case of our results is the following theorem. Let f be a proper holomorphic map from an open set U onto a Stein manifold V, $U\subset\subset V$. Assume f is…

The F-threshold $c^J(\a)$ of an ideal $\a$ with respect to the ideal $J$ is a positive characteristic invariant obtained by comparing the powers of $\a$ with the Frobenius powers of $J$. We show that under mild assumptions, we can detect…

We study the sequence of polynomials $\{S_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ that are orthogonal with respect to the general discrete Sobolev-type inner product $$ \langle f,g \rangle_{\mathsf{s}}=\!\int\! f(x)…

We prove that if $\sigma \in S_m$ is a pattern of $w \in S_n$, then we can express the Schubert polynomial $\mathfrak{S}_w$ as a monomial times $\mathfrak{S}_\sigma$ (in reindexed variables) plus a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients.…

Let $m\ge 2$ be an integer, $K$ an algebraic number field and $\alpha\in K\setminus \{0,-1\}$ with sufficiently small absolute value. In this article, we provide a new lower bound for linear form in…

A survey of results for Mahler measure of algebraic numbers, and one-variable polynomials with integer coefficients is presented. Related results on the maximum modulus of the conjugates (`house') of an algebraic integer are also discussed.…

A finitely generated module over the ring L=Z[t, t^{-1}] of integer Laurent polynomials that has no Z-torsion is determined by a pair of sub-lattices of L^d. Their indices are the absolute values of the leading and trailing coefficients of…

Recent work of Fili and the author examines an ultrametric version of the Mahler measure, denoted $M_\infty(\alpha)$ for an algebraic number $\alpha$. We show that the computation of $M_\infty(\alpha)$ can be reduced to a certain search…
