New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
It is a classical result that the absolute value of any $k$-minor of an $r\times s$ real or complex matrix is bounded by the product of its first $k$ singular values. We generalize this statement to the context of real or complex simple…
For a jointly measurable probability-preserving action $\tau:\mathbb{R}^D\curvearrowright (X,\mu)$ and a tuple of polynomial maps $p_i:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}^D$, $i=1,2,...,k$, the multiple ergodic averages \[ \frac{1}{T}\int_0^T…
We prove that the Jacobian conjecture is false if and only if there exists a solution to a certain system of polynomial equations. We analyse the solution set of this system. In particular we prove that it is zero dimensional.
Let $f \in { \mathbb R} ( t) [x]$ be given by $ f(t, x) = x^n + t \cdot g(x) $ and $\beta_1 < \dots < \beta_m$ the distinct real roots of the discriminant $\Delta_{(f, x)} (t)$ of $f(t, x)$ with respect to $x$. Let $\gamma$ be the number of…
This paper investigates the asymptotics of the number of prime values taken by a polynomial in several variables with integer coefficients. Based on probabilistic heuristics and the multidimensional Bateman Horn conjecture, the expected…
We give counterexamples to the Brown-Colbourn conjecture on reliability polynomials, in both its univariate and multivariate forms. The multivariate Brown-Colbourn conjecture is false already for the complete graph K_4. The univariate…
To study the zeros of octonionic polynomials, we generalize the well-known Enestrom-Kakeya Theorem to the case of octonions. In this paper, we first deal with octonionic polynomials with nonnegative and monotonic coefficients, and prove…
Let $P_{n}(x)= \sum_{i=0}^n \xi_i x^i$ be a Kac random polynomial where the coefficients $\xi_i$ are iid copies of a given random variable $\xi$. Our main result is an optimal quantitative bound concerning real roots repulsion. This leads…
For any prime $p$ and real number and $\alpha$, the $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture due to de Mathan and Teuli\'e asserts that \[\inf_{|m|\ge1}|m|_p\cdot |m|\cdot |\left\langle\alpha m\right\rangle|=0.\] Above, $|m|$ is the usual absolute…
Consider real bivariate polynomials f and g, respectively having 3 and m monomial terms. We prove that for all m>=3, there are systems of the form (f,g) having exactly 2m-1 roots in the positive quadrant. Even examples with m=4 having 7…
The Newton polytope $P_f$ of a polynomial $f$ is well known to have a strong impact on its zeros, as in the Kouchnirenko-Bernstein theorem on the number of simultaneous zeros of $m$ polynomials with given Newton polytopes. In this article,…
The van der Waerden's Conjecture states that the set $\mathscr{P}_{n,N}^0(\mathbb{Q})$ of monic integer polynomials $f(X)$ of degree $n$, with height $\le N$ such that the Galois group $G_{K_f/\mathbb{Q}}$ of the splitting field…
Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…
We further investigate the relations between the large degree asymptotics of the number of real zeros of random trigonometric polynomials with dependent coefficients and the underlying correlation function. We consider trigonometric…
We consider a problem of bounding the maximal possible multiplicity of a zero at of some expansions $\sum a_i F_i(x)$, at a certain point $c,$ depending on the chosen family $\{F_i \}$. The most important example is a polynomial with $c=1.$…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of prime $p$. A polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ is square-free if all its monomials are square-free. In this note, we determine an upper bound on the number of…
In this paper, we establish some local universality results concerning the correlation functions of the zeroes of random polynomials with independent coefficients. More precisely, consider two random polynomials $f =\sum_{i=1}^n c_i \xi_i…
We consider random systems of equations over the reals, with $m$ equations and $m$ unknowns $P_i(t)+X_i(t)=0$, $t\in\mathbb{R}^m$, $i=1,...,m$, where the $P_i$'s are non-random polynomials having degrees $d_i$'s (the "signal") and the…
