Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…
For any polynomial f with complex coefficients we find a remarkable subset of poles of the motivic zeta function. It is combinatorially determined by any log resolution and it admits an intrinsic interpretation in terms of contact loci of…
We show that there exists a cubic threefold defined by an invertible polynomial that, when quotiented by the maximal diagonal symmetry group, has a derived category which does not have a full exceptional collection consisting of line…
We give an infinite family of polynomials that have roots modulo every positive integer but fail to have rational roots. Each polynomial in this family is made up of monic quadratic factors that do not have linear term.
The intersection distribution of a polynomial $f$ over finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ was recently proposed in Li and Pott (arXiv:2003.06678v1), which concerns the collective behaviour of a collection of polynomials $\{f(x)+cx \mid c \in…
Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$, let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and, for each nonconstant polynomial $F\in \mathbb F_{q}[X]$ and each integer $n\ge 1$, let $s_F(n)$ be the degree of the splitting field (over…
We explicitly describe the splitting of odd integral primes in the radical extension $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[n]{a})$, where $x^n-a$ is an irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$. Our motivation is to classify common index divisors, the primes…
Linear set in projective spaces over finite fields plays central roles in the study of blocking sets, semifields, rank-metric codes and etc. A linear set with the largest possible cardinality and the maximum rank is called maximum…
Let $\F_q$ be a finite field of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that, given $F(t,x)\in \F_q[t][x]$ an irreducible separable monic polynomial in the variable $x$ and a generic monic polynomial $\phi(t)$ in the variable $t$, the polynomial…
We obtain estimates on the number $|\mathcal{A}_{\boldsymbol{\lambda}}|$ of elements on a linear family $\mathcal{A}$ of monic polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ of degree $n$ having factorization pattern…
In this paper we present results concerning the stabilizer $G_f$ in $\mathrm{GL}(2,q^n)$ of the subspace $U_f=\{(x,f(x))\colon x\in\mathbb F_{q^n}[x]\}$, $f(x)$ a scattered linearized polynomial in $\mathbb F_{q^n}[x]$. Each $G_f$ contains…
In this paper, we derive some formulae involving coefficients of polynomials which occur quite naturally in the study of restricted partitions. Our method involves a recently discovered sieve technique by Li and Wan (Sci. China. Math.…
We show that (in ZFC) every infinite set S can be equipped with 2^|S| complete metrics which generate mutually non-homeomorphic scattered order topologies on S. Furthermore, we show that (in ZFC) every uncountable set S can be equipped with…
Suppose that $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ is monic and irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ of degree $N$. We say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(\theta)$,…
Intersection distribution and non-hitting index are concepts introduced recently by Li and Pott as a new way to view the behaviour of a collection of finite field polynomials. With both an algebraic interpretation via the intersection of a…
Given any polynomial $p$ in $C[X]$, we show that the set of irreducible matrices satisfying $p(A)=0$ is finite. In the specific case $p(X)=X^2-nX$, we count the number of irreducible matrices in this set and analyze the arising sequences…
We estimate the number of possible types degree patterns of $k$-lacunary polynomials of degree $t < p$ which split completely modulo $p$. The result is based on a combination of a bound on the number of zeros of lacunary polynomials with…
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…
In this paper, we propose linear maps over the space of all polynomials $f(x)$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ that map $0$ to itself, through their evaluation map. Properties of these linear maps throw up interesting connections with permutation…
We provide an algorithm to classify the asymptotic sets of the dominant polynomial mappings $F: \C^3 \to \C^3$ of degree 2, using the definition of the so-called "{\it fa\c{c}ons}" in \cite{Thuy}. We obtain a classification theorem for the…
