In this paper we present a new type of fractional operator, the Caputo-Katugampola derivative. The Caputo and the Caputo-Hadamard fractional derivatives are special cases of this new operator. An existence and uniqueness theorem for a…

This paper contains the proof of Macdonald's duality and evaluation conjectures, the definition of the difference Fourier transform, the recurrence theorem generalizing Pieri rules, and the action of GL(2,Z) on the Macdonald polynomials at…

The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…

We study some natural sets arising in the theory of ordinary differential equations in one variable from the point of view of descriptive set theory and in particular classify them within the Borel hierarchy. We prove that the set of Cauchy…

The solution of equations from the title is well known since the Euler's time. However, its proof in the case of multiple roots of the characteristic polynomial is rather long and technical and even appearance of the factors $x^m$ looks…

Eliminating the arbitrary coefficients in the equation of a generic plane curve of order $n$ by computing sufficiently many derivatives, one obtains a differential equation. This is a projective invariant. The first one, corresponding to…

The package Binomials contains implementations of specialized algorithms for binomial ideals, including primary decomposition into binomial ideals. The current implementation works in characteristic zero. Primary decomposition is restricted…

Jeffery's 1861 computations using finite difference calculus are resurrected and extended from forward differences to general delta operators and used to neatly prove theorems in the Rota--Mullins theory of polynomials of binomial type…

In this paper, we point out that there are at lest six theorems in physics sharing common virtue of Pythagoras theorem, so that it is possible to string these theorems together with the Pythagoras theorem for physics teaching, the six…

In this paper motivated by the celebrated fundamental theorem of algebra and its standard proof utilizing Liouville's Theorem, we prove the fundamental theorem of algebra type results for both commutative and noncommutative polynomials in…

We develop a differential theory for the polarity transform parallel to that for the Legendre transform, which is applicable when the functions studied are "geometric convex", namely convex, non-negative and vanish at the origin. This…

We derive some identities and relations and extremal problems and minimization and Fourier development involving of integral Legendre polynomials.

A classical result due to Bochner characterizes the classical orthogonal polynomial systems as solutions of a second-order eigenvalue equation. We extend Bochner's result by dropping the assumption that the first element of the orthogonal…

We consider primitive divisors of terms of integer sequences defined by quadratic polynomials. Apart from some small counterexamples, when a term has a primitive divisor, that primitive divisor is unique. It seems likely that the number of…

The "unit theorem" to which the present mini-course is devoted is a theorem from algebra that has a combinatorial flavour, and that originated in fact from algebraic combinatorics. Beyond a proof, the course also addresses applications, one…

Differential equations are a powerful tool for evaluating Feynman integrals. Their solution is straightforward if a transformation to a canonical form is found. In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding such a transformation. This…

We provide an alternative unified approach for proving the Pythagorean theorem (in dimension $2$ and higher), the law of sines and the law of cosines, based on the concept of shape derivative. The idea behind the proofs is very simple: we…

We analyze, mainly using bifurcation methods, an elliptic superlinear problem in one-dimension with periodic boundary conditions. One of the main novelties is that we follow for the first time a bifurcation approach, relying on a…

We consider semiclassical orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle associated with a weight function that satisfy a Pearson-type differential equation involving two polynomials of degree at most three. Structure relations and difference…

In a recent article, the class of functions from the integers to the integers computable in polynomial time has been characterized using discrete ordinary differential equations (ODE), also known as finite differences. Doing so, we pointed…
