For a polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbb Z[x]$ we study an analogue of Jacobsthal function, defined by the formula \[ j_f(N)=\max_{m}\{\text{For some } x\in \mathbb N \text{ the inequality } (x+f(i),N)>1 \text{ holds for all }i\leq m\}. \] We…

We derive a lower and an upper bound for the number of binary cyclotomic polynomials $\Phi_m$ with at most $m^{1/2+\epsilon}$ nonzero terms.

Let $\mathcal S=\{s_1<s_2<s_3<\ldots\}$ be the sequence of all natural numbers which can be represented as a sum of two squares of integers. For $X\ge2$ we denote by $g(X)$ the largest gap between consecutive elements of $\mathcal S$ that…

Using an explicit version of Selberg's upper sieve, we obtain explicit upper bounds for the number of $n\leq x$ such that a non-empty set of irreducible polynomials $F_i(n)$ with integer coefficients are simultaneously prime; this set can…

A popular method in combinatorial optimization is to express polytopes P, which may potentially have exponentially many facets, as solutions of linear programs that use few extra variables to reduce the number of constraints down to a…

In this paper, we examine how far a polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_2[x]$ can be from a squarefree polynomial. For any $\epsilon>0$, we prove that for any polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{F}_2[x]$ with degree $n$, there exists a squarefree polynomial…

For a function field $K$ and fixed polynomial $F\in K[x]$ and varying $f\in F$ (under certain restrictions) we give a lower bound for the degree of the greatest prime divisor of $F(f)$ in terms of the height of $f$, establishing a strong…

The polygon $P$ is small if its diameter equals one. When $n=2^s$, it is still an open problem to find the maximum perimeter or the maximum width of a small $n$-gon. Motivated by Bingane's series of works, we improve the lower bounds for…

We compute the leading asymptotics of the maximum of the (centered) logarithm of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial, denoted $\Psi_N$, of the Ginibre ensemble as the dimension $N$ of the random matrix tends to infinity. The…

We obtain lower bounds for the maximum dimension of a simple FG-module, where G is a finite group and F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. The bounds are described in terms of properties of p-subgroups of G. When p is 2…

The $n^{th}$ cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n(x)$ is the minimal polynomial of an $n^{th}$ primitive root of unity. Hence $\Phi_n(x)$ is trivially zero at primitive $n^{th}$ roots of unity. Using finite Fourier analysis we derive a formula for…

The combinatorial diameter of a polytope $P$ is the maximum value of a shortest path between two vertices of $P$, where the path uses the edges of $P$ only. In contrast to the combinatorial diameter, the circuit diameter of $P$ is defined…

In this article, we address the lower bounds for the sums $a_f(p)+a_g(p)$ of the $p$-th Fourier coefficients of two twist-inequivalent, non-CM normalized newforms $f$ and $g$. Our main result shows that for such forms with integer Fourier…

We give a bound for the number of real solutions to systems of n polynomials in n variables, where the monomials appearing in different polynomials are distinct. This bound is smaller than the fewnomial bound if this structure of the…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…

Let G be a finite group with a generating set A. By the (symmetric) diameter of G with respect to A we mean the maximum over g in G of the length of the shortest word in (A union A inverse)A expressing g.By the (symmetric) diameter of G we…

The largest coefficient (in absolute value) of a cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$ is called its height $A(n)$. In case $p$ is a fixed prime it turns out that as $q$ and $r$ range over all primes satisfying $p<q<r$, the height $A(pqr)$ assumes…

A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we obtain improved error bounds for the number of irreducible polynomials and self-reciprocal irreducible monic…
