A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if it is the composition f = g(h) of two polynomials g and h whose degree is at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and…

The interaction between combinatorics and algebraic and differential geometry is very strong. While researching a problem of Hessian topology, we came across a series of identities of binomial coefficients, which are useful for proving a…

A theorem is proved concerning approximation of analytic functions by multivariate polynomials in the $s$-dimensional hypercube. The geometric convergence rate is determined not by the usual notion of degree of a multivariate polynomial,…

Let K be a field and denote by K[t], the polynomial ring with coefficients in K. Set A = K[f1,. .. , fs], with f1,. .. , fs $\in$ K[t]. We give a procedure to calculate the monoid of degrees of the K algebra M = F1A + $\times$ $\times$…

We classify the endomorphism algebras of factors of the Jacobian of certain hypergeometric curves over a field of characteristic zero. Other than a few exceptional cases, the endomorphism algebras turn out to be either a cyclotomic field…

We prove the finiteness of the genus of finite-dimensional division algebras over many infinitely generated fields. More precisely, let $K$ be a finite field extension of a field which is a purely transcendental extension of infinite…

A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…

We show that if $K$ is a monogenic, primitive, totally real number field, that contains units of every signature, then there exists a lower bound for the rank of integer universal quadratic forms defined over $K$. In particular, we extend…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of p-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the factorial moments of the number of roots of this…

A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if f = g o h = g(h) for nonlinear polynomials g and h. In order to count the decomposables, one wants to know, under a suitable normalization, the number of equal-degree collisions of…

We establish formulas for computation of the higher algebraic $K$-groups of the endomorphism rings of objects linked by a morphism in an additive category. Let ${\mathcal C}$ be an additive category, and let $Y\ra X$ be a covariant morphism…

Consider the conjugation action of the general linear group $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(K)$ on the polynomial ring $K[X_{2 \times 2}]$. When $K$ is an infinite field, the ring of invariants is a polynomial ring generated by the trace and the…

For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…

Based on a reduction processing, we rewrite a hypergeometric term as the sum of the difference of a hypergeometric term and a reduced hypergeometric term (the reduced part, in short). We show that when the initial hypergeometric term has a…

We characterize characteristic polynomials of elements in a central simple algebra. We also give an account for the theory of rational canonical forms for separable linear transformations over a central division algebra, and a description…
