Let F be a homogeneous real polynomial of even degree in any number of variables. We consider the problem of giving explicit conditions on the coefficients so that F is positive definite or positive semi-definite. In this note we produce a…

A survey is given on mathematical structures which emerge in multi-loop Feynman diagrams. These are multiply nested sums, and, associated to them by an inverse Mellin transform, specific iterated integrals. Both classes lead to sets of…

We show that positivity on $\mathbb{R}_+^n$ and on $\mathbb{R}^n$ of real symmetric polynomials of degree at most $p$ in $n\ge2$ variables is solvable by algorithms running in $\mathrm{poly}(n)$ time. For real symmetric quartics, we find…

We classify all totally real number fields of degree at most 5 that admit a universal quadratic form with rational integer coefficients; in fact, there are none over the previously unsolved cases of quartic and quintic fields. This fully…

Linear differential equations of arbitrary order with polynomial coefficients are considered. Specifically, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of polynomial solutions of a given degree are obtained for these equations. An…

We study the regularity of the roots of multiparameter families of complex univariate monic polynomials $P(x)(z) = z^n + \sum_{j=1}^n (-1)^j a_j(x) z^{n-j}$ with fixed degree $n$ whose coefficients belong to a certain subring $\mathcal C$…

We prove that the roots of a smooth monic polynomial with complex-valued coefficients defined on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb R^m$ admit a parameterization by functions of bounded variation uniformly with respect to the…

We explain how to use the probabilistic method to prove the existence of real polynomial singularities with rich topology, i.e. with total Betti number of the maximal possible order. We show how similar ideas can be used to produce real…

We consider here a particular quadratic equation linking two elements of a C-Algebra. By analysing powers of the unknowns, it appears a double sequence of polynomials related to classical Bernoulli polynomials. We get the generating…

In this paper, we obtain two analogues of the Sturm bound for modular forms in the function field setting. In the case of mixed characteristic, we prove that any harmonic cochain is uniquely determined by an explicit finite number of its…

The roots of any polynomial of degree m with complex integer coefficients can be computed by manipulation of sequences made from distinct symbols and counting the different symbols in the sequences. This method requires only primitive…

We give a simpler proof of an earlier result giving an asymptotic estimate for the number of integral matrices, in large balls, with a given monic integral irreducible polynomial as their common characteristic polynomial. The proof uses…

This note proves the existence of universal rational parametrizations. The description involves homogeneous coordinates on a toric variety coming from a lattice polytope. We first describe how smooth toric varieties lead to universal…

We give an asymptotic formula for the number of monic Eisenstein polynomials of odd prime degree satisfying an additional condition that arises in the study of the genus number of an algebraic number field.

We give various examples of Q-factorial projective toric varieties such that the sum of the squared torus invariant prime divisors is positive. We also determine the generators for the cone of effective $2$-cycles on a toric variety of…

The Cox ring provides a coordinate system on a toric variety analogous to the homogeneous coordinate ring of projective space. Rational maps between projective spaces are described using polynomials in the coordinate ring, and we generalise…

This paper seeks to further explore the distribution of the real roots of random polynomials with non-centered coefficients. We focus on polynomials where the typical values of the coefficients have power growth and count the average number…

We identify the scaling region of a width O(n^{-1}) in the vicinity of the accumulation points $t=\pm 1$ of the real roots of a random Kac-like polynomial of large degree n. We argue that the density of the real roots in this region tends…

Sturm oscillation theorem for second order differential equations was generalized to systems and higher order equations with positive leading coefficient by several authors. What we propose here is a Sturm oscillation theorem for systems of…
