Given two finite sequences of positive integers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we associate a square free monomial ideal $I_{\alpha,\beta}$ in a ring of polynomials $S$, and we recursively compute the algebraic invariants of $S/I_{\alpha,\beta}$.…

In this paper, we investigate permutation polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ with $q=2^m$, focusing on those in the form $\mathrm{Tr}(Ax^{q+1})+L(x)$, where $A\in\mathbb F_{q^n}^*$ and $L$ is a $2$-linear polynomial over…

Let the numbers $\alpha_n,\beta_n$ and $\gamma_n$ denote \begin{align*} \alpha_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}{2k\choose k},\quad \beta_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}{2k\choose k}\frac{1}{k+1}\quad\text{and}\quad \gamma_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}{2k\choose…

Swan (Pacific J. Math. 12(3) (1962), 1099-1106) characterized the parity of the number of irreducible factors of trinomials over $F_2$. Many researchers have recently obtained Swan-like results on determining the reducibility of polynomials…

The ring of dual numbers over a ring $R$ is $R[\alpha] = R[x]/(x^2)$, where $\alpha$ denotes $x+(x^2)$. For any finite commutative ring $R$, we characterize null polynomials and permutation polynomials on $R[\alpha]$ in terms of the…

An interesting, and still wide open, conjecture of Reiner and Stanton predicts that certain "strange" symmetric differences of $q$-binomial coefficients are always nonnegative and unimodal. We extend their conjecture to a broader, and…

The aim of this paper is to prove duality of Triebel-Lizorkin spaces $% F_{1,q\left( \cdot \right) }^{\alpha \left( \cdot \right) }$. First, we prove the duality of associated sequence spaces. Then from the so-called $% \varphi $-transform…

In the previous author's paper the Macdonald norm conjecture (including the famous constant term conjecture) was proved. This paper contains the proof of the remaining two (the duality and evaluation conjectures). The evaluation theorem is…

In the present note we obtain new results on two conjectures by Csordas et al. regarding the interlacing property of zeros of special polynomials. These polynomials came from the Jacobi tau methods for the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue…

Riffaut (2019) conjectured that a singular modulus of degree $h\ge 3$ cannot be a root of a trinomial with rational coefficients. We show that this conjecture follows from the GRH, and obtain partial unconditional results.

Let $(x_1, \dots, x_n, y_1, \dots, y_n)$ be a list of $2n$ commuting variables, $(\theta_1, \dots, \theta_n, \xi_1, \dots, \xi_n)$ be a list of $2n$ anticommuting variables, and $\mathbb{C}[X_n, Y_n] \otimes \wedge \{\Theta_n, \Xi_n\}$ be…

In this paper, a class of permutation trinomials of Niho type over finite fields with even characteristic is further investigated. New permutation trinomials from Niho exponents are obtained from linear fractional polynomials over finite…

We give new, short proofs of recent permutation polynomial results of Bousalmi, Bayad, and Derbal by reducing the verification to explicit computations on a three-element multiplicative subgroup via Zieve's fiber criterion. Building on this…

We prove that for any integers $\alpha, \beta > 1$, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z}; 0,1,<, +, \alpha^{\mathbb{N}}, \beta^{\mathbb{N}}\rangle$ is decidable (where $\alpha^{\mathbb{N}}$…

In this paper, we shall prove the equality \[ \zeta(3,\{2\}^{n},1,2)=\zeta(\{2\}^{n+3})+2\zeta(3,3,\{2\}^{n}) \] conjectured by Hoffman using certain identities among iterated integrals on $\mathbb{P}^{1}\setminus\{0,1,\infty,z\}$.

We prove two single-parameter q-supercongruences which were recently conjectured by Guo, and establish their further extensions with one more parameter. Crucial ingredients in the proof are the terminating form of q-binomial theorem and a…

Let $f(x)=x^{2p}+ax^p+b^p$, where $p$ is a prime and $a,b\in {\mathbb Z}$ with $ab\ne 0$. If $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$, we say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{2p-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring…

In this paper, we study certain determinants over finite fields. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements and let $a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_{q-1}$ be all nonzero elements of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let…

The well-known Chowla and Zassenhaus conjecture, proven by Cohen in 1990, states that if $p>(d^2-3d+4)^2$, then there is no complete mapping polynomial $f$ in $\Fp[x]$ of degree $d\ge 2$. For arbitrary finite fields $\Fq$, a similar…

In this paper, we show that for any projective klt pair $(X,\Delta)$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(0\) and any big $\mathbb{Q}$-Cartier $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $L$ on $X$, the invariants $\alpha(X,\Delta,L)$ and…
