We study in details how and when the radical $\sqrt[3]{a+b\sqrt p}$ with rational numbers $a,b$ and $p$ positive can be simplified, providing a complete answer to the problem; furthermore, a program that computes the result is also made…

Let K = Q(t1,..,tk) and a,b,c in K. We give a simple algorithm to find, if it exists, X,Y,Z in K, not all zero, for which aX^2 + bY^2 + cZ^2 = 0.

This short paper is concerned with polynomial Pell equations \[P^2-DQ^2=1,\] with $P,Q,D\in\Bbb C[X]$ and ${deg}(D)=2$. The main result shows that the polynomials $P$ and $Q$ are closely related to Chebyshev polynomials. We then investigate…

We present subquadratic algorithms, in the algebraic decision-tree model of computation, for detecting whether there exists a triple of points, belonging to three respective sets $A$, $B$, and $C$ of points in the plane, that satisfy a…

In this paper, elliptic curves theory is used for solving the Diophantine equations X^3+Y^3+Z^3+aU^k=a_0U_0^{t_0}+...+a_nU_n^{t_n}, k=3,4 where n, ti are natural numbers and a, a_i are fixed arbitrary rational numbers. We try to transform…

Motivated by applications in robotics and computer vision, we study problems related to spatial reasoning of a 3D environment using sublevel sets of polynomials. These include: tightly containing a cloud of points (e.g., representing an…

We develop an analytic approach that draws on tools from Fourier analysis and ergodic theory to study Ramsey-type problems involving sums and products in the integers. Suppose $Q$ denotes a polynomial with integer coefficients. We establish…

Polynomial solving algorithms are essential to applied mathematics and the sciences. As such, reduction of their complexity has become an incredibly important field of topological research. We present a topological approach to constructing…

The original version of this paper did not take into account that there may be solutions (x_0, y_o)in Z X Z of f(x,y) = x^3 + p(y)x + q(y) = 0 even though w_0 = (-3D(y_0))^(1/2) is irrational.

We complete the complexity classification by degree of minimizing a polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Previous work shows that optimizing a quadratic polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedral…

Computational approaches to finding non-trivial integer solutions of the equation in the title are discussed. We summarize previous work and provide several new solutions.

Let $\mu_1, \ldots, \mu_s$ be real numbers, with $\mu_1$ irrational. We investigate sums of shifted cubes $F(x_1,\ldots,x_s) = (x_1 - \mu_1)^3 + \ldots + (x_s - \mu_s)^3$. We show that if $\eta$ is real, $\tau >0$ is sufficiently large, and…

Theoretical results are known about the completeness of a planar algebraic cubic curve as a (n,3)-arc in PG(2,q). They hold for q big enough and sometimes have restriction on the characteristic and on the value of the j-invariant. We…

We introduce a family of polynomials in $q^2$ and four variables associated with the quantized algebra of functions $A_q(C_2)$. A new formula is presented for the recent solution of the 3D reflection equation in terms of these polynomials…
