In this paper, we prove that there does not exist $F \in \mathbb{Q}[x,y]$ of degree $4$ such that $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) = \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. In particular, this answers a question by John S. Lew and Bjorn Poonen for quartic polynomials.
For polynomials of degree two which have no zeros, the method of accompanying variables is developed and zeros of associated vector polynomials are determined. Our flexible method uses a wide variety of possible vector-valued vector…
We prove that the polynomials generated by the relation $\displaystyle{\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} H_m(z)t^m=\frac{1}{P(t)+z t^r Q(t)}}$ are hyperbolic for $m \gg 1$ given that the zeros of the real polynomials $P$ and $Q$ are real and sufficiently…
A hyperbolic polynomial (HP) is a real univariate polynomial with all roots real. By Descartes' rule of signs a HP with all coefficients nonvanishing has exactly $c$ positive and exactly $p$ negative roots counted with multiplicity, where…
The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…
We describe a new approach to certifying the global nonnegativity of multivariate polynomials by solving hyperbolic optimization problems---a class of convex optimization problems that generalize semidefinite programs. We show how to…
Let $p$ be a real polynomial in two variables. We say that a polynomial $q$ is a real Jacobian mate of $p$ if the Jacobian determinant of the mapping $(p,q):\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ is everywhere positive. We present a class of…
This article deals with a quantitative aspect of Hilbert's seventeenth problem: producing a collection of real polynomials in two variables of degree 8 in one variable which are positive but are not a sum of three squares of rational…
It is shown that if $f$ or $1/f$ is a real entire function of infinite order of growth, with only real zeros, then $f''+\omega f$ has infinitely many non-real zeros for any $\omega > 0$.
A real univariate polynomial of degree $n$ is called hyperbolic if all of its $n$ roots are on the real line. Such polynomials appear quite naturally in different applications, for example, in combinatorics and optimization. The focus of…
In this paper, we prove several theorems on systems of polynomials with at least one positive real zero based on the theory of conceive polynomials. These theorems provide sufficient conditions for systems of multivariate polynomials…

In this paper, we give a formula for the proper class number of a binary quadratic polynomial assuming that the conductor ideal is sufficiently divisible at dyadic places. This allows us to study the growth of the proper class numbers of…
Given any polynomial with real coefficients, the existence of a real quadratic polynomial factor is proven using only basic real analysis. The aim is to provide an approachable proof to anybody who is familiar with the least upper bound…
This paper investigates the number of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ whose roots are all real and positive. We establish an asymptotic formula for the case of fixed trace by estimating the number of integer sequences satisfying…
This paper investigates the location of the zeros of a sequence of polynomials generated by a rational function with a denominator of the form $G(z,t)=P(t)+zt^{r}$, where the zeros of $P$ are positive and real. We show that every member of…
We show that an integer-valued quadratic polynomial on $\mathbb{R}^2$ can not be injective on the integer lattice points of any affine convex cone if its discriminant is nonzero. A consequence is the non-existence of quadratic packing…
We study separable plus quadratic (SPQ) polynomials, i.e., polynomials that are the sum of univariate polynomials in different variables and a quadratic polynomial. Motivated by the fact that nonnegative separable and nonnegative quadratic…
The purpose of this note is to point out that the main result of [M. Chamberland, When Are All the Zeros of a Polynomial Real and Distinct? Amer. Math. Monthly. 127 (2020) 449-451] is implicitly contained in the elementary lore of the…
