Alexopoulos proved that on a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group, the restriction of a harmonic function of polynomial growth to a torsion-free nilpotent subgroup of finite index is always a polynomial in the Mal'cev coordinates of…
The Mahler measure of a monic polynomial $P(x) = a_dx^d + a_{d-1}x^{d-1} + \dots + a_1x + a_0$ is defined as $M(P) := |a_d| \prod_{P(\alpha)=0} \max\{1, |\alpha|\}$, where the product runs over all roots of $P$. Lehmer's problem asks…
We consider the orthogonal polynomials $\{P_{n}(z)\}$ with respect to the measure $|z-a|^{2N c} {\rm e}^{-N |z|^2} \,{\rm d} A(z)$ over the whole complex plane. We obtain the strong asymptotic of the orthogonal polynomials in the complex…
We show that the problem of finding the measure supported on a compact subset K of the complex plane such that the variance of the least squares predictor by polynomials of degree at most n at a point exterior to K is a minimum, is…
We study rather general multiple zeta-functions whose denominators are given by polynomials. The main aim is to prove explicit formulas for the values of those multiple zeta-functions at non-positive integer points. We first treat the case…
Amoebae from tropical geometry and the Mahler measure from number theory play important roles in quiver gauge theories and dimer models. Their dependencies on the coefficients of the Newton polynomial closely resemble each other, and they…
We present counting methods for some special classes of multivariate polynomials over a finite field, namely the reducible ones, the s-powerful ones (divisible by the s-th power of a nonconstant polynomial), and the relatively irreducible…
In this paper we are concerned with the problem of local and global subextensions of (quasi-)plurisubharmonic functions from a "regular" subdomain of a compact K\"ahler manifold. We prove that a precise bound on the complex Monge-Amp\`ere…
We prove a conjecture of K. Schmidt in algebraic dynamical system theory on the growth of the number of components of fixed point sets. We also generalize a result of Silver and Williams on the growth of homology torsions of finite abelian…
We study the distribution of Mahler's measures of reciprocal polynomials with complex coefficients and bounded even degree. We discover that the distribution function associated to Mahler's measure restricted to monic reciprocal polynomials…
For a hyperbolic knot and a natural number n, we consider the Alexander polynomial twisted by the n-th symmetric power of a lift of the holonomy. We establish the asymptotic behavior of these twisted Alexander polynomials evaluated at unit…
In this paper, we consider modular local polynomials. These functions satisfy modularity while they are locally defined as polynomials outside of an exceptional set. We prove an inequality for the dimension of the space of such forms when…
We conjecture formulae of the colored superpolynomials for a class of twist knots $K_p$ where p denotes the number of full twists. The validity of the formulae is checked by applying differentials and taking special limits. Using the…
We establish the sharp growth order, up to epsilon losses, of the $L^2$-norm of the maximal directional averaging operator along a finite subset $V$ of a polynomial variety of arbitrary dimension $m$, in terms of cardinality. This is an…
We extend a theorem by Kleiner, stating that on a group with polynomial growth, the space of harmonic functions of polynomial of at most $k$ is finite dimensional, to the settings of locally compact groups equipped with measures with…
We continue our study of the Widom factors for $L_p(\mu)$ extremal polynomials initiated in [4]. In this work we characterize sets for which the lower bounds obtained in [4] are saturated, establish continuity of the Widom factors with…
For an arbitrary quiver Q and dimension vector d we prove that the dimension of the space of cuspidal functions on the moduli stack of representations of Q of dimension d over a finite field F_q is given by a polynomial in q with rational…
In this paper we study the product of two central values of $L$-functions of a twisted modular. We show that it suffices to compute a local polynomial at a finite number of points to decide whether the product is zero. For the proof, we…
We improve Mahler's lower bound for the Mahler measure in terms of the discriminant and degree for a specific class of polynomials: complex monic polynomials of degree $d\geq 2$ such that all roots with modulus greater than some fixed value…
Let $d\nu$ be a measure in $\mathbb{R}^d$ obtained from adding a set of mass points to another measure $d\mu$. Orthogonal polynomials in several variables associated with $d\nu$ can be explicitly expressed in terms of orthogonal polynomials…
