We prove that some of the basic differential functions appearing in the (unramified) theory of arithmetic differential equations, especially some of the basic differential modular forms in that theory, arise from a "ramified situation".…

We introduce the notions of alternating roots of polynomials and alternating polynomials over a Cayley-Dickson algebra, and prove a connection between the alternating roots of a given polynomial and the roots of the corresponding…

We develope a difference calculus analogous to the differential geometry by translating the forms and exterior derivatives to similar expressions with difference operators, and apply the results to fields theory on the lattice [Ref. 1]. Our…

New methods for derivation of Bell polynomials of the second kind are presented. The methods are based on an ordinary generating function and its composita. The relation between a composita and a Bell polynomial is demonstrated. Main…

We obtain the solution of the fourth order difference equation $$ x_{n+1}=\frac{ \alpha x_{n-3}}{A+B x_{n-1}x_{n-3}}$$ with the initial conditions; $x_{-3}=d,$ $x_{-2}=c,$ $x_{-1}=b,$ and $x_{0}=a$ are arbitrary nonzero real numbers,…

This article studies separating invariants for the ring of multisymmetric polynomials in $m$ sets of $n$ variables over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$. We prove that in order to obtain separating sets it is enough to consider polynomials…

Nonclassical symmetries and reductions of polynomial equations and systems of polynomial equations are considered. It is shown that specific polynomial equations having "hidden" symmetries can be reduced to classical symmetric systems of…

Galois theory is developed using elementary polynomial and group algebra. The method follows closely the original prescription of Galois, and has the benefit of making the theory accessible to a wide audience. The theory is illustrated by a…

For two meromorphic functions $ f $ and $ g $, the equation $ f^m+g^m=1 $ can be regarded as Fermat-type equations. Using Nevanlinna theory for meromorphic functions in several complex variables, the main purpose of this paper is to…

The main goal of this paper is to adopt a multivector calculus scheme to study finite difference discretizations of Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations for which Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind may be used to represent a set of…

An observation by J-P. Serre implies that cubic polynomials are unique among generic monic polynomials of degree 2 or higher in that they have a root that is a power series in the discriminant of the polynomial. We provide formulas for this…

We introduce a method for calculating the divided differences of the exponential function by means of addition and removal of items from the input list to the function. Our technique exploits a new identity related to divided differences…
