A polynomial is real-rooted if all of its roots are real. This note gives a simple proof of the Hermite-Sylvester theorem that a polynomial $f(x) \in {\mathbf R}[x]$ is real-rooted if and only if an associated quadratic form is positive…
For a given set of integers $\mathcal{S}$, let $\mathcal{R}_n^*(\mathcal{S})$ denote the set of reducible polynomials $f(X)=a_nX^n+a_{n-1}X^{n-1}+\cdots+a_1X+a_0$ over $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ with $a_i\in\mathcal{S}$ and $a_0a_n\ne 0$. In this…
The problem of when a given digraph contains a subdivision of a fixed digraph $F$ is considered. Bang-Jensen et al. laid out foundations for approaching this problem from the algorithmic point of view. In this paper we give further support…
Interpreting three-leaf binary trees or {\em rooted triples} as constraints yields an entailment relation, whereby binary trees satisfying some rooted triples must also thus satisfy others, and thence a closure operator, which is known to…
Our probabilistic analysis sheds light to the following questions: Why do random polynomials seem to have few, and well separated real roots, on the average? Why do exact algorithms for real root isolation may perform comparatively well or…
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…
We provide upper bounds for the sum of the multiplicities of the non-constant irreducible factors that appear in the canonical decomposition of a polynomial $f(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$, in case all the roots of $f$ lie inside an Apollonius…
Locating the zeros of quaternionic polynomials is a fundamental problem with significant implications across scientific and engineering disciplines, yet the noncommutative nature of quaternion multiplication makes it fundamentally more…
Suppose X is the complex zero set of a finite collection of polynomials in Z[x_1,...,x_n]. We show that deciding whether X contains a point all of whose coordinates are d_th roots of unity can be done within NP^NP (relative to the sparse…
We consider the Rosenfeld-Groebner algorithm for computing a regular decomposition of a radical differential ideal generated by a set of ordinary differential polynomials in n indeterminates. For a set of ordinary differential polynomials…
In this paper, a linear univariate representation for the roots of a zero-dimensional polynomial equation system is presented, where the roots of the equation system are represented as linear combinations of roots of several univariate…
We construct a family of root-finding algorithms which exploit the branched covering structure of a polynomial of degree $d$ with a path-lifting algorithm for finding individual roots. In particular, the family includes an algorithm that…
A polynomial $p\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ is a divisor of some polynomial $0\neq f\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ with non-negative coefficients if and only if $p$ does not have a positive real root. The lowest possible degree of such $f$ for a given $p$ is known…
The subject matter of this work is quadratic and cubic polynomial functions with integer coefficients;and all of whose roots are integers. The material of this work is directed primarily at educators,students,and teachers of…
Triangular decomposition is one of the standard ways to represent the radical of a polynomial ideal. A general algorithm for computing such a decomposition was proposed by A. Szanto. In this paper, we give the first complete bounds for the…
The degree polynomial of a multigraph $G$ is given by $\sum _{v \in V(G)} x^{\mbox{deg}(v)}$. We investigate here properties of the roots of such polynomials. In addition to examining the roots for some families of graphs with few and many…
In this paper we partially settle our conjecture from [1] (math.SP/0701143) on roots of eigenpolynomials for degenerate exactly-solvable operators. Namely, for any such operator, we establish a lower bound (which supports our conjecture)…
We use Newton's method to find all roots of several polynomials in one complex variable of degree up to and exceeding one million and show that the method, applied to appropriately chosen starting points, can be turned into an algorithm…
A sharp bound is obtained for the number of ways to express the monomial $X^n$ as a product of linear factors over $\mathbb{Z}/p^{\alpha}\mathbb{Z}$. The proof relies on an induction-on-scale procedure which is used to estimate the number…
In this paper, we study properties of polynomials over division rings. Moreover, we present formulas for finding roots of some polynomials
