We study the problem of reconstructing a function on a manifold satisfying some mild conditions, given data on the values and some derivatives of the function at arbitrary points on the manifold. While the problem of finding a polynomial of…

Let $k\leq n$. Each polynomial $p\in\oR[x_1,...,x_n]$ can be uniquely written as $p=\sum_{\mu}\mu p_{\mu}$, where $\mu$ ranges over the set $M$ of all monomials in $\oR[x_1,...,x_k]$ and where $p_{\mu}\in\oR[x_{k+1},...,x_n]$. If $p$ is…

We study the question of local testability of low (constant) degree functions from a product domain $S_1 \times \dots \times {S}_n$ to a field $\mathbb{F}$, where ${S_i} \subseteq \mathbb{F}$ can be arbitrary constant sized sets. We show…

For any natural $d \ge k \ge 2$ we calculate the cohomology groups of the space of homogeneous polynomials $R^2 \to R$ of degree $d$, which do not vanish with multiplicity $\ge k$ on real lines. For $k=2$ this problem provides the simplest…

We consider the problem of finding for a given $N$-tuple of polynomials (real or complex) the closest $N$-tuple that has a common divisor of degree at least $d$. Extended weighted Euclidean seminorm of the coefficients is used as a measure…

We study the family of intersection graphs of low density objects in low dimensional Euclidean space. This family is quite general, and includes planar graphs. We prove that such graphs have small separators. Next, we present efficient…

Polynomial-time deterministic approximation of volumes of polytopes, up to an approximation factor that grows at most sub-exponentially with the dimension, remains an open problem. Recent work on this question has focused on identifying…

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 monograph, we prove an asymptotic approximation for integrals of probability densities over sets in finite dimensional euclidean space, which are far away from the origin (asymptotic sets). We use this approximation to investigate…

This paper is devoted to studying the multiple recurrent property of topologically mildly mixing systems along generalized polynomials. We show that if a minimal system is topologically mildly mixing, then it is mild mixing of higher orders…

A theorem is proved concerning approximation of analytic functions by multivariate polynomials in the $s$-dimensional hypercube. The geometric convergence rate is determined not by the usual notion of degree of a multivariate polynomial,…

The $\epsilon$-approximate degree of a Boolean function $f: \{-1, 1\}^n \to \{-1, 1\}$ is the minimum degree of a real polynomial that approximates $f$ to within $\epsilon$ in the $\ell_\infty$ norm. We prove several lower bounds on this…

We state a kind of Euclidian division theorem: given a polynomial P(x) and a divisor d of the degree of P, there exist polynomials h(x),Q(x),R(x) such that P(x) = h(Q(x)) +R(x), with deg h=d. Under some conditions h,Q,R are unique, and Q is…

The (weak) Nullstellensatz over finite fields says that if $P_1,\ldots,P_m$ are $n$-variate degree-$d$ polynomials with no common zero over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ then there are polynomials $R_1,\ldots,R_m$ such that…

The task of approximating a function of d variables from its evaluations at a given number of points is ubiquitous in numerical analysis and engineering applications. When d is large, this task is challenged by the so-called curse of…

We consider degree-d forms on the Euclidean unit sphere. We specialize to our setting a genericity result by Nie obtained in a more general framework. We exhibit an homogeneous polynomial Res in the coefficients of f , such that if Res(f) =…

We prove that random low-degree polynomials (over $\mathbb{F}_2$) are unbiased, in an extremely general sense. That is, we show that random low-degree polynomials are good randomness extractors for a wide class of distributions. Prior to…

Let $P_1, \ldots, P_m \in K[y]$ be polynomials with distinct degrees, no constant terms and coefficients in a general locally compact topological field $K$. We give a quantitative count of the number of polynomial progressions $x, x+P_1(y),…

We prove a criterion on the possible locations of zeros of type I and type II multiple orthogonal polynomials in terms of normality of degree $1$ Christoffel transforms. We provide another criterion in terms of degree $2$ Christoffel…

Consider random polynomials of the form $G_n = \sum_{i=0}^n \xi_i p_i$, where the $\xi_i$ are i.i.d.\ non-degenerate complex random variables, and $\{p_i\}$ is a sequence of orthonormal polynomials with respect to a regular measure $\tau$…
