We study the ring of polyfunctions over $\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z$. The ring of polyfunctions over a commutative ring $R$ with unit element is the ring of functions $f:R\to R$ which admit a polynomial representative $p\in R[x]$ in the sense…

Polynomial factorization in conventional sense is an ill-posed problem due to its discontinuity with respect to coefficient perturbations, making it a challenge for numerical computation using empirical data. As a regularization, this paper…

A higher order difference equation may be generally defined in an arbitrary nonempty set S as: \[ f_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k})=g_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k}) \] where $f_{n},g_{n} :S^{k+1}\rightarrow S$ are given functions for…

In this paper, we study Grothendieck polynomials from a combinatorial viewpoint. We introduce the factorial Grothendieck polynomials, analogues of the factorial Schur functions and present some of their properties, and use them to produce a…

If K/k is a function field in one variable of positive characteristic, we describe a general algorithm to factor one-variable polynomials with coefficients in K. The algorithm is flexible enough to find factors subject to additional…

This paper deals with function field analogues of famous theorems of Laudau which counted the number of integers which have $t$ prime factors and R. Hall which researched the distribution of divisors of integers in residue classes.\;We…

Stanley defined a partition function t(n) as the number of partitions $\lambda$ of n such that the number of odd parts of $\lambda$ is congruent to the number of odd parts of the conjugate partition $\lambda'$ modulo 4. We show that t(n)…

Several determinants with gamma functions as elements are evaluated. This kind of determinants are encountered in the computation of the probability density of the determinant of random matrices. The s-shifted factorial is defined as a…

This paper deals with both the higher order Tur\'an inequalities and the Laguerre inequalities for quasi-polynomial-like functions -- that are expressions of the form $f(n)=c_l(n)n^l+\cdots+c_d(n)n^d+o(n^d)$, where $d,l\in\mathbb{N}$ and…

Let $S_p(n)$ denote the sum of $p$th powers of the first $n$ positive integers $1^p + 2^p + \cdots + n^p$. In this paper, first we express $S_p(n)$ in the so-called Faulhaber form, namely, as an even or odd polynomial in $(n + 1/2)$,…

In this note, we represent integers in a type of factoradic notation. Rather than use the corresponding Lehmer code, we will view integers as permutations. Given a pair of integers n and k, we give a formula for n mod k in terms of the…

We develop a new algorithm for factoring a bivariate polynomial $F\in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ which takes fully advantage of the geometry of the Newton polygon of $F$. Under a non degeneracy hypothesis, the complexity is…

If L is a complete ortholattice, f any partial function from L^n to L, then there is a complete ortholattice L* containing L as a subortholattice, and an ortholattice polynomial with coefficients in L* which represents f on L^n. Iterating…

Let $f(x) = \sum\limits _{i=0}^{n} a_i x^i $ be a polynomial with coefficients from the ring $\mathbb{Z}$ of integers satisfying either $(i)$ $0 < a_0 \leq a_{1} \leq \cdots \leq a_{k-1} < a_{k} < a_{k+1} \leq \cdots \leq a_n$ for some $k$,…

The following result, a consequence of Dumas criterion for irreducibility of polynomials over integers, is generally proved using the notion of Newton diagram: Let $f(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients and $k$ be a positive…

We give a complete classification of the factorial functions of Eulerian binomial posets. The factorial function B(n) either coincides with $n!$, the factorial function of the infinite Boolean algebra, or $2^{n-1}$, the factorial function…

We prove that, given a function $f$ in the Nevanlinna class $N$ and a positive integer $n$, there exist $g\in N$ and $h\in BMOA$ such that $f^{(n)}=gh^{(n)}$. We may choose $g$ to be zero-free, so it follows that the zero sets for the class…

A bracket polynomial on the integers is a function formed using the operations of addition, multiplication and taking fractional parts. For a fairly large class of bracket polynomials we show that if p is a bracket polynomial of degree k-1…

We derive a combinatorial multisum expression for the number $D(n,k)$ of partitions of $n$ with Durfee square of order $k$. An immediate corollary is therefore a combinatorial formula for $p(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$. We then…
