Let $\mathcal{E}_d^{(s)}$ denote the set of coefficient vectors $(a_1,\dots,a_d)\in \mathbb{R}^d$ of contractive polynomials $x^d+a_1x^{d-1}+\dots+a_d\in \mathbb{R}[x]$ that have exactly $s$ pairs of complex conjugate roots and let…
The Ehrhart polynomial of a convex lattice polytope counts integer points in integral dilates of the polytope. We present new linear inequalities satisfied by the coefficients of Ehrhart polynomials and relate them to known inequalities. We…
Schur studied limits of the arithmetic means $A_n$ of zeros for polynomials of degree $n$ with integer coefficients and simple zeros in the closed unit disk. If the leading coefficients are bounded, Schur proved that $\limsup_{n\to\infty}…
Let $S$ be a finite set of primes. The $S$-part $[m]_S$ of a non-zero integer $m$ is the largest positive divisor of $m$ that is composed of primes from $S$. In 2013, Gross and Vincent proved that if $f(X)$ is a polynomial with integer…
We prove that there is a universal constant $C>0$ so that for every $d \in \mathbb N$, every centered subgaussian distribution $\mathcal D$ on $\mathbb R^d$, and every even $p \in \mathbb N$, the $d$-variate polynomial $(Cp)^{p/2} \cdot…
Univariate polynomials are called stable with respect to a domain $D$ if all of their roots lie in $D$. We study linear slices of the space of stable univariate polynomials with respect to a half-plane. We show that a linear slice always…
Consider a $d\times d$ matrix $M$ whose rows are independent centered non-degenerate Gaussian vectors $\xi_1,...,\xi_d$ with covariance matrices $\Sigma_1,...,\Sigma_d$. Denote by $\mathcal{E}_i$ the location-dispersion ellipsoid of…
We show that the Schur polynomials in all primitive $n$th roots of unity are $1$, $0$, or $-1$, if $n$ has at most two distinct odd prime factors. This result can be regarded as a generalization of properties of the coefficients of the…
In this paper, we prove the existence of full dimensional tori for $d$-dimensional nonlinear Schr$\ddot{\mbox{o}}$dinger equation with periodic boundary conditions \begin{equation*}\label{L1} \sqrt{-1}u_{t}+\Delta u+V*u\pm\epsilon…
We investigate Newton's method for complex polynomials of arbitrary degree $d$, normalized so that all their roots are in the unit disk. For each degree $d$, we give an explicit set $\mathcal{S}_d$ of $3.33d\log^2 d(1 + o(1))$ points with…
Let X be an algebraic curve, defined over a perfect field, and G a divisor on X. If X has sufficiently many points, we show how to construct a divisor D on X such that l(2D-G)=0, of essentially any degree such that this is compatible the…
Schur studied limits of the arithmetic means $s_n$ of zeros for polynomials of degree $n$ with integer coefficients and simple zeros in the closed unit disk. If the leading coefficients are bounded, Schur proved that $\limsup_{n\to\infty}…
A beautiful result of Br\"ocker and Scheiderer on the stability index of basic closed semi-algebraic sets implies, as a very special case, that every $d$-dimensional polyhedron admits a representation as the set of solutions of at most…
We show that for every finite symetric set S of integer vectors, every real trigonometric polynomial on the d dimensional torus with spectrum in S has a zero in every closed ball of diameter D, where D is the sum over S of 1 over 4 times…
The conjecture on roots of Ehrhart polynomials, stated by Matsui et al. \cite[Conjecture 4.10]{MHNOH}, says that all roots $\alpha$ of the Ehrhart polynomial of a Gorenstein Fano polytope of dimension $d$ satisfy $-\frac{d}{2} \leq…
We prove a result on the representation of squares by second degree polynomials in the field of $p$-adic meromorphic functions in order to solve positively B\"uchi's $n$ squares problem in this field (that is, the problem of the existence…
We study the zero distribution of non-orthogonal polynomials attached to $g(n)=s(n)=n^2$: \begin{equation*} Q_n^g(x)= x \sum_{k=1}^n g(k) \, Q_{n-k}^g(x), \quad Q_0^g(x):=1. \end{equation*} It is known that the case $g=id$ involves…
This is a short survey about the theory of stable polynomials and its applications. It gives self-contained proofs of two theorems of Schrijver. One of them asserts that for a $d$--regular bipartite graph $G$ on $2n$ vertices, the number of…
Burkill and Mirsky, and Kalmanson, prove independently that, for every $r\ge 2, n\ge 1$, there is a sequence of $r^{2^n}$ vectors in $\mathbb R^n$, which does not contain a subsequence of $r+1$ vectors $v^1, v^2,\dots,v^{r+1}$ such that,…
In 2015, Guth proved that if $S$ is a collection of $n$ $g$-dimensional semi-algebraic sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and if $D\geq 1$ is an integer, then there is a $d$-variate polynomial $P$ of degree at most $D$ so that each connected component…
