We give the stratification by the symmetric tensor rank of all degree $d \ge 9$ homogeneous polynomials with border rank $5$ and which depend essentially on at least 5 variables, extending previous works (A. Bernardi, A. Gimigliano, M.…

A family of polynomials parameterized by the conjugacy classes of a finite Coxeter group is investigated. These polynomials, together with the character table of the group, determine the associated generic degrees. The polynomials are…

For a d-dimensional polyhedral complex P, the dimension of the space of piecewise polynomial functions (splines) on P of smoothness r and degree k is given, for k sufficiently large, by a polynomial f(P,r,k) of degree d. When d=2 and P is…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the mixed Hodge polynomial of the ``space of equations'' for smooth complete intersections of given multidegree in $\mathbb{C} P^n$ is divisible by the mixed Hodge polynomial of the group…

Here we study the typical rank for real bivariate homogeneous polynomials of degree $d\ge 6$ (the case $d\le 5$ being settled by P. Comon and G. Ottaviani). We prove that $d-1$ is a typical rank and that if $d$ is odd, then $(d+3)/2$ is a…

A polynomial is a direct sum if it can be written as a sum of two non-zero polynomials in some distinct sets of variables, up to a linear change of variables. We analyze criteria for a homogeneous polynomial to be decomposable as a direct…

The nonzero level sets of a homogeneous, logarithmically homogeneous, or translationally homogeneous function are affine spheres if and only if the Hessian determinant of the function is a multiple of a power or an exponential of the…

We prove that the number of indecomposable vector bundles of fixed rank r and degree d over a smooth projective curve X defined over a finite field is given by a polynomial (depending only on the pair (r,d) and the genus g of X) in the Weil…

We find a formula, in terms of n, d and p, for the value of the F-pure threshold for the generic homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We also show that, in every…

Given a set $\Gamma$ of low-degree k-dimensional varieties in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that for any $D \ge 1$, there is a non-zero polynomial $P$ of degree at most $D$ so that each component of $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus Z(P)$ intersects…

In this article, we prove some factorization results for several classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield several classes of irreducible polynomials. Such classes of polynomials are devised by imposing…

Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $k, P:V\to k, d\geq 3$. We show the existence of a function $C(r,d)$ such that $rank (P)\leq C(r,d)$ for any field $k,char (k)>d$, a finite-dimensional $k$-vector space $V$ and a polynomial $P:V\to k$…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let $f \in K[x]$. The $m$-th {\it cyclic resultant} of $f$ is \[r_m = \text{Res}(f,x^m-1).\] A generic monic polynomial is determined by its full sequence of cyclic…

We contribute to the exceptional APN conjecture by showing that no polynomial of degree m = 2 r (2 {\ell} + 1) where gcd(r, {\ell}) 2, r 2, {\ell} 1 with a nonzero second leading coefficient can be APN over infinitely many extensions of the…

Fix two integers $1\leq d<e$. We study the birational geometry of a parameter space for pairs of homogeneous polynomials of degrees $d$ and $e$ in two variables (in which the higher degree polynomial is well defined only up to a multiple of…

We use the representation theory of Lie algebras and computational linear algebra to determine the simplest nonconstant invariant polynomial in the entries of a general 2 x 2 x 3 array. This polynomial is homogeneous of degree 6 and has 66…
