The maximum of the absolute value of a real homogeneous polynomial of degree $d\ge 3$ on the unit sphere corresponds to the spectral norm of the induced real $d$-symmetric tensor $\mathcal{S}$. We give two sequences of upper bounds on the…

The aim of this note is to give a surprising symmetry property of some harmonic algebraic curves: when all the roots $z_i$ of a complex polynomial $P$ lie on the unit circle $\U$, the points of $\U$ different from the $z_i$, and such that…
We investigate matter collineations of plane symmetric spacetimes when the energy-momentum tensor is degenerate. There exists three interesting cases where the group of matter collineations is finite-dimensional. The matter collineations in…

Following Smale, we study simple symmetric mechanical systems of $n$ point particles in the plane. In particular, we address the question of the linear and spectral stability properties of relative equilibria, which are special solutions of…
Connection of flat polynomials with some spectral questions in ergodic theory is discussed. A necessary condition for a sequence of polynomials of the type $\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \big(1 +\sum_{j=1}^{N-1} z^{n_j}\big)$ to be flat in almost…
Constitutive tensors are of common use in mechanics of materials. To determine the relevant symmetry class of an experimental tensor is still a tedious problem. For instance, it requires numerical methods in three-dimensional elasticity. We…
