Let $P(\partial_0,\partial_1,...,\partial_n)$ be a PDO on $\symR^{1+n}$ with constant coefficients. It is proved that (i) the real parts of the $\lambda$-roots of the polynomial $P(\lambda,i\xi_1,...,i\xi_n)$ are bounded from above when…
We construct relative Gromov--Witten theory with expanded degenerations in the normal crossings setting and establish a degeneration formula for the resulting invariants. Given a simple normal crossings pair $(X,D)$, we show that there…
We show that any set containing a positive proportion of the primes contains a 3-term arithmetic progression. An important ingredient is a proof that the primes enjoy the so-called Hardy-Littlewood majorant property. We derive this by…
We introduce a wide class of deterministic subsets of primes of zero relative density and we prove Roth's Theorem in these sets, namely, we show that any subset of them with positive relative upper density contains infinitely many…
We determine the p-exponent in many of the coefficients in the power series (log(1+x)/x)^t, where t is any integer. In our proof, we introduce a variant of multinomial coefficients. We also characterize the power series x/log(1+x) by…
In this paper we give a factorization theorem for the ring of exponential polynomials in many variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 with an exponentiation. This is a generalization of the factorization theorem due…
For real polynomials with (sparse) exponents in some fixed set, \[ \Psi(t)=x+y_1t^{k_1}+\ldots +y_L t^{k_L}, \] we analyse the types of root structures that might occur as the coefficients vary. We first establish a stratification of roots…
In this paper we generalize the Ritt-Kolchin method of characteristic sets and the classical Gr\"obner basis technique to prove the existence and obtain methods of computation of multivariate difference-differential dimension polynomials…
We use the properties of Hermite and Kamp\'e de F\'eriet polynomials to get closed forms for the repeated derivatives of functions whose argument is a quadratic or higher-order polynomial. The results we obtain are extended to product of…
We prove that all arrangements (consistent with the Rolle theorem and some other natural restrictions) of the real roots of a real polynomial and of its $s$-th derivative are realizable by real polynomials.
For a polynomial P, we consider the sequence of iterated integrals of ln P(x). This sequence is expressed in terms of the zeros of P(x). In the special case of ln(1 + x^2), arithmetic properties of certain coefficients arising are…
In this paper, we introduce the polynomial continued fraction, a close relative of the well-known simple continued fraction expansions which are widely used in number theory and in general. While they may not possess all the intriguing…
We derive a generalized matrix version of Pellet's theorem, itself based on a generalized Rouch\'{e} theorem for matrix-valued functions, to generate upper, lower, and internal bounds on the eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. Variations of…
We consider the problem of defining polynomials over function fields of positive characteristic. Among other results, we show that the following assertions are true. 1. Let $\G_p$ be an algebraic extension of a field of $p$ elements and…
Artin solved Hilbert's 17th problem, proving that a real polynomial in $n$ variables that is positive semidefinite is a sum of squares of rational functions, and Pfister showed that only $2^n$ squares are needed. In this paper, we…
We study linear transformations $T \colon \mathbb{R}[x] \to \mathbb{R}[x]$ of the form $T[x^n]=P_n(x)$ where $\{P_n(x)\}$ is a real orthogonal polynomial system. Such transformations that preserve or shrink the location of the complex zeros…
We present a new, far simpler family of counter-examples to Kushnirenko's Conjecture. Along the way, we illustrate a computer-assisted approach to finding sparse polynomial systems with maximally many real roots, thus shedding light on the…
We study a question with connections to linear algebra, real algebraic geometry, combinatorics, and complex analysis. Let $p(x,y)$ be a polynomial of degree $d$ with $N$ positive coefficients and no negative coefficients, such that $p=1$…
The article focuses on three different notions of polynomiality for maps of modules. In addition to the polynomial maps studied by Eilenberg and Mac Lane and the strict polynomial maps ("lois polynomes") considered by Roby, we introduce…
We study a class of bivariate deformed Hermite polynomials and some of their properties using classical analytic techniques and the Wigner map. We also prove the positivity of certain determinants formed by the deformed polynomials. Along…
