In this note, we investigate the measure of singular sets and critical sets of real-valued solutions of elliptic equations in two dimensions. These singular sets and critical sets are finitely many points in the plane. Adapting the Carleman…

In this article, we propose a few sufficient conditions on polynomials having integer coefficients all of whose zeros lie outside a closed disc centered at the origin in the complex plane and deduce the irreducibility over the ring of…

A polynomial over a ring is called decomposable if it is a composition of two nonlinear polynomials. In this paper, we obtain sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of decomposable polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree…

In this paper, we provide an efficient method for computing the Taylor coefficients of $1-p_n f$, where $p_n$ denotes the optimal polynomial approximant of degree $n$ to $1/f$ in a Hilbert space $H^2_\omega$ of analytic functions over the…

We prove a linear in $\deg\omega$ upper bound on the number of real zeros of the Abelian integral $I(t)=\int_{\delta(t)}\omega$, where $\delta(t)\subset\R^2$ is the real oval $x^2y(1-x-y)=t$ and $\omega$ is a one-form with polynomial…

Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…

We show that for any sufficiently large integer $Q$ and a real $0\leq\lambda\leq\frac34$ there exists a value $c(n,f,J)>0$ such that all strips $L(Q,\lambda)=\{(x,y):|y-f(x)|<Q^{-\lambda}, x\in J=[a,b]\}$ contain at least $c(n, f,…

Polynomial approximations of functions are widely used in scientific computing. In certain applications, it is often desired to require the polynomial approximation to be non-negative (resp. non-positive), or bounded within a given range,…

We give a general method for proving quantum lower bounds for problems with small range. Namely, we show that, for any symmetric problem defined on functions $f:\{1, ..., N\}\to\{1, ..., M\}$, its polynomial degree is the same for all…

We consider the problem of finding a sparse multiple of a polynomial. Given f in F[x] of degree d over a field F, and a desired sparsity t, our goal is to determine if there exists a multiple h in F[x] of f such that h has at most t…

Given a real cubic function $f(x)$ with three roots, take an equilateral triangle $ABC$, the projections of which vertices are the roots of $f(x)$. There is a folklore fact that the vertical lines through the extrema of $f(x)$ are tangent…

We study best approximation to a given function, in the least square sense on a subset of the unit circle, by polynomials of given degree which are pointwise bounded on the complementary subset. We show that the solution to this problem, as…

In this article, we obtain upper bounds on the number of irreducible factors of some classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield some of the well known irreducibility criteria. For devising our results, we…

Let n be a positive integer. We consider the Sylvester Resultant of f and g, where f is a generic polynomial of degree 2 or 3 and g is a generic polynomial of degree n. If f is a quadratic polynomial, we find the resultant's height. If f is…

We obtain asymptotic bounds on the number of natural numbers less than $X$ satisfying $\gcd{\left(n,\lfloor P(n) \rfloor\right)}=1$, under some diophantine conditions on the coefficient of $x$ in $P$, and show that the density of such…

This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…

We prove Dirichlet's theorem for polynomial rings: Let F be a pseudo algebraically closed field. Then for all relatively prime polynomials a(X), b(X)\in F[X] and for every sufficiently large positive integer n there exist infinitely many…

Let $N_n(X)$ denote the number of degree $n$ number fields with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this note, we improve the best known upper bounds on $N_n(X)$, finding that $N_n(X) = O(X^{ c (\log n)^2})$ for an explicit constant $c$.
