We consider a general class of random matrices whose entries are centred random variables, independent up to a symmetry constraint. We establish precise high-probability bounds on the averages of arbitrary monomials in the resolvent matrix…

Motivated by the question of whether a random polynomial with integer coefficients is likely to be irreducible, we study the probability that a monic polynomial with integer coefficients has a low-degree factor over the integers, which is…

We derive identities for the determinants of matrices whose entries are (rising) powers of (products of) polynomials that satisfy a recurrence relation. In particular, these results cover the cases for Fibonacci polynomials, Lucas…

Let $n$ be a large integer and $M_n$ be a random $n$ by $n$ matrix whose entries are i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables (each entry is $\pm 1$ with probability 1/2). We show that the probability that $M_n$ is singular is at most $(3/4…

We prove that for writing the 3 by 3 permanent polynomial as a determinant of a matrix consisting only of zeros, ones, and variables as entries, a 7 by 7 matrix is required. Our proof is computer based and uses the enumeration of bipartite…

We prove that an elasticity tensor with orthotropic symmetry is extremal if the determinant of its acoustic tensor is an extremal polynomial that is not a perfect square.

We show that for a random polynomial \[ F(X) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} f(n) X^{n-1}, \] where $f(n)$ is a random completely multiplicative function taking values in $\{\pm 1\}$, one has \[ \limsup_{N \to \infty} \mathbb{P}\big[F(X) \text{ is…

In a recent paper, Bary-Soroker, Koukoulopoulos and Kozma proved that when $A$ is a random monic polynomial of $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ of deterministic degree $n$ with coefficients $a_j$ drawn independently according to measures $\mu_j,$ then $A$…

We give an upper bound in O(d ^((n+1)/2)) for the number of critical points of a normal random polynomial with degree d and at most n variables. Using the large deviation principle for the spectral value of large random matrices we obtain…

In this paper we consider pentadiagonal $(n+1)\times(n+1)$ matrices with two subdiagonals and two superdiagonals at distances $k$ and $2k$ from the main diagonal where $1\le k<2k\le n$. We give an explicit formula for their determinants and…

A unimodular $2\times 2$ matrix $A$ with entries in a commutative ring $R$ is called weakly determinant liftable if there exists a matrix $B$ congruent to $A$ modulo $R\det(A)$ and $\det(B)=0$; if we can choose $B$ to be unimodular, then…
