In this paper, we shall present an interesting and significant refinement of a classical result of Cauchy about the moduli of the zeros of a quaternionic polynomial. As an application of this result we shall obtain zero-free regions of…

We show that the number of bifurcation points at infinity of a polynomial function f : C2 -> C is at most the number of branches at infinity of a generic fiber of f and that this upper bound can be diminished by one in certain cases.

Let $V$ be a set of isolated points in $\RR^d$. Define a linear functional $\CL$ on the space of real polynomials restricted on $V$, $\CL f = \sum_{x \in V} f(x)\rho(x)$, where $\rho$ is a nonzero function on $V$. Polynomial subspaces that…

We consider the coincident root loci consisting of the polynomials with at least two double roots andpresent a linear basis of the corresponding ideal in the algebra of symmetric polynomials in terms of the Jack polynomials with special…

Using a variety of matrix techniques, the problem of locating the left eigenvalues of the quaternion companion matrices are investigated in this paper. In a recent paper, Dar et al. [6], proved that the zeros of a quaternionic polynomial…

In this paper we relate the location of the complex zeros of the reliability polynomial to parameters at which a certain family of rational functions derived from the reliability polynomial exhibits chaotic behaviour. We use this connection…

In this note, we obtain asymptotic expected number of real zeros for random polynomials of the form $$f_n(z)=\sum_{j=0}^na^n_jc^n_jz^j$$ where $a^n_j$ are independent and identically distributed real random variables with bounded…

We show that if a real trigonometric polynomial has few real roots, then the trigonometric polynomial obtained by writing the coefficients in reverse order must have many real roots. This is used to show that a class of random trigonometric…

We call shifted power a polynomial of the form $(x-a)^e$. The main goal of this paper is to obtain broadly applicable criteria ensuring that the elements of a finite family $F$ of shifted powers are linearly independent or, failing that, to…

We present a theory which predicts if the locus of a triangle center over certain Poncelet triangle families is a conic or not. We consider families interscribed in (i) the confocal pair and (ii) an outer ellipse and an inner concentric…

The log-rank conjecture is a longstanding open problem with multiple equivalent formulations in complexity theory and mathematics. In its linear-algebraic form, it asserts that the rank and partitioning number of a Boolean matrix are…

In fractal geometry, the main objects of study have been geometric objects with a global dimension that need not be integer valued. More recently, locally fractal objects, ones in which the dimension is a local property rather than a global…

For a lattice polytope $P$, the rank of $P$ is defined by $F-(\dim P+1)$, where $F$ is the number of facets of $P$. In this paper, we study matroid polytopes with small rank. More precisely, we characterize matroid independence polytopes…

A generalization of Arnold's strange duality to invertible polynomials in three variables by the first author and A.Takahashi includes the following relation. For some invertible polynomials $f$ the Saito dual of the reduced monodromy zeta…

A $P$-polynomial corner, for $P \in \mathbb{Z}[z]$ a polynomial, is a triple of points $(x,y),\; (x+P(z),y),\; (x,y+P(z))$ for $x,y,z \in \mathbb{Z}$. In the case where $P$ has an integer root of multiplicity $1$, we show that if $A…

We study concentration inequalities for the number of real roots of the classical Kac polynomials $$f_{n} (x) = \sum_{i=0}^n \xi_i x^i$$ where $\xi_i$ are independent random variables with mean 0, variance 1, and uniformly bounded…

We consider random systems of equations over the reals, with $m$ equations and $m$ unknowns $P_i(t)+X_i(t)=0$, $t\in\mathbb{R}^m$, $i=1,...,m$, where the $P_i$'s are non-random polynomials having degrees $d_i$'s (the "signal") and the…

We study the zero set of polynomials built from partition statistics, complementing earlier work in this direction by Boyer, Goh, Parry, and others. In particular, addressing a question of Males with two of the authors, we prove asymptotics…

In this paper are discussed the results of new numerical experiments on zero distribution of type I Hermite-Pad\'e polynomials of order $n=200$ for three different collections of three functions $[1,f_1,f_2]$. These results are obtained by…

Suppose that $\langle f_n \rangle$ is a sequence of polynomials, $\langle f_n^{(k)}(0)\rangle$ converges for every non-negative integer $k$, and that the limit is not $0$ for some $k$. It is shown that if all the zeros of $f_1, f_2, \dots$…
