The Casas-Alvero conjecture predicts that every univariate polynomial over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero sharing a common factor with each of its Hasse-Schmidt derivatives is a power of a linear polynomial. The…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary polynomial of degree $n$, especially with only real roots, to be trivial, i.e. to have the form a(x-b)^n. To do this, we derive new properties of polynomials and their roots.…
Based on Casas-Alvero conjecture \textit{[J. Algebra, 2001]} we formulate the following conjecture.\\ \textbf{C*-algebraic Casas-Alvero Conjecture : Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a commutative C*-algebra, $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $P(z) =…
We investigate necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary polynomial of degree $n$ to be trivial, i.e. to have the form $a(z-b)^n$. These results are related to an open problem, conjectured in 2001 by E. Casas- Alvero. It says,…
Over a field of characteristic zero, it is clear that a polynomial of the form (X-a)^d has a non-trivial common factor with each of its d-1 first derivatives. The converse has been conjectured by Casas-Alvero. Up to now there have only been…
The Casas-Alvero conjecture states that if $f(X)$ is a monic univariate polynomial of degree $d$ over a characteristic $0$ field $\mathbb{K}$ such that $\gcd(f, f_{i})$ is non-trivial for each $i=1, \dots, d-1$, then $f(X)=(X-\alpha)^d$ for…
The Casas-Alvero conjecture is about interpolation polynomials. There are some partial proofs of it, but there is not any proof in the general case.In this paper we propose three.
The Casas--Alvero conjecture predicts that every univariate polynomial $f$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero having a common factor with each of its derivatives $H\_i(f)$ is a power of a linear polynomial. Let…
We present a proof of the Casas-Alvero conjecture, stating that if a complex polynomial has a root in common with each of its derivatives it must be a multiple of the power of some monomial.
We study a basic algorithmic problem in algebraic geometry, which we call NNL, of constructing a normalizing map as per Noether's Normalization Lemma. For general explicit varieties, as formally defined in this paper, we give a randomized…
We show that every affine or projective algebraic variety defined over the field of real or complex numbers is homeomorphic to a variety defined over the field of algebraic numbers. We construct such a homeomorphism by choosing a small…
The Casas-Alvero conjecture predicts that every univariate polynomial over a field of characteristic zero having a common factor with each of its derivatives $H_i(f)$ is a power of a linear polynomial. One approach to proving the conjecture…
The Weitzenboeck theorem states that the algebra of constants of a linear locally nilpotent derivation of the polynomial algebra K[Z]=K[z_1,...,z_m] in m variables over a field K of characteristic 0 is finitely generated. If m=2n and the…
We expand our previously founded basic theory of equiresidual algebraic geometry over an arbitrary commutative field, to a well-behaved theory of (equiresidual) algebraic varieties over a commutative field, thanks to the generalisation of…
The Casas-Alvero conjecture says that a degree $n$ complex univariate polynomial sharing a root with each of its derivative must have only one root. In this article we give three results. The first one, is that the number of possible…
The Casas-Alvero conjecture states: if a complex univariate polynomial has a common root with each of its derivatives, then it has a unique root. We show that hypothetical counterexamples must have at least 5 different roots. The first case…
We establish sharp estimates that adapt the polynomial method to arbitrary varieties. These include a partitioning theorem, estimates on polynomials vanishing on fixed sets and bounds for the number of connected components of real algebraic…
We explore the geometric notion of prolongations in the setting of computational algebra, extending results of Landsberg and Manivel which relate prolongations to equations for secant varieties. We also develop methods for computing…
Many statistical models are algebraic in that they are defined by polynomial constraints or by parameterizations that are polynomial or rational maps. This opens the door for tools from computational algebraic geometry. These tools can be…
We invent the notion of a {\it dimension of a variety} $V$ as the cardinality of all its proper {\it derived} subvarieties (of the same type). The dimensions of varieties of lattices, varieties of regular bands and other general algebraic…
