Expansive polynomials (whose roots are greater than 1 in modulus) often arise in dynamical systems and other computational problems. This paper examines the expansivity gap (the gap between 1 and the smallest modulus of the roots) of these…

We investigate the summability of the coefficients of $m$-homogeneous polynomials and $m$-linear mappings defined on $\ell_{p}$-spaces. In our research we obtain results on the summability of the coefficients of $m$-linear mappings defined…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the polynomial ring over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. A polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ is called $m$-smooth (or $m$-friable) if all its irreducible factors are of degree at most $m$. In this…

In classical prime number theory there are several asymptotic formulas said to be "equivalent" to the PNT. One is the bound $M(x) = o(x)$ for the sum function of the Moebius function. For Beurling generalized numbers, this estimate is not…

The problem of finding a nontrivial factor of a polynomial f(x) over a finite field F_q has many known efficient, but randomized, algorithms. The deterministic complexity of this problem is a famous open question even assuming the…

We prove that an algebraic flat connection has definable flat sections in the analytic exponential structure if and only if it is regular singular with unitary monodromy eigenvalues at infinity, refining previous work of Bakker and Mullane.…

We consider a problem of P. Erdos, A. M. Odlyzko and A. Sarkozy about the representation of residue classes modulo m by products of two not too large primes. While it seems that even the Extended Riemann Hypothesis is not powerful enough to…

We study random exponential sums of the form $\sum_{k=1}^nX_k\times\ex p\{i(\lambda_k^{(1)}t_1+...+\lambda_k^{(s)}t_s)\}$, where $\{X_n\}$ is a sequence of random variables and $\{\lambda_n^{(i)}:1\leq i\leq s\}$ are sequences of real…

For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…

Let $(b,u)$ be a pair consisting of a symplectic form $b$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$, and of a $b$-alternating endomorphism $u$ of $V$ (i.e. $b(x,u(x))=0$ for all $x$ in $V$). Let $p$ and $q$ be…

A generalisation of the odd Bernoulli polynomials related to the quantum Euler top is introduced and investigated. This is applied to compute the coefficients of the spectral polynomials for the classical Lam\'e operator.

We obtain an effective analytic formula, with explicit constants, for the number of distinct irreducible factors of a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$. We use an explicit version of Mertens' theorem for number fields to estimate a related…

We establish a generalization of Littlewood's criterion on $L^\alpha$-flatness by proving that there is no $L^\alpha$-flat polynomials, $\alpha>0$, within the class of analytic polynomials on the unit circle of the form $…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with orthogonality measure $\log \bigl(\frac{2}{1-x}\bigr) {\rm d}x$ on $(-1,1)$. The asymptotic formula confirms a special case of a conjecture by…

Our previous theorems on exponential sums often did not apply or did not give sharp results when certain powers of a variable appearing in the polynomial were divisible by p. We remedy that defect in this paper by systematically applying…

This paper, along with E592 and E636, seems to consider the binomial expansion (1+z)^n in the case where z is complex. Euler even gives the sums of divergent series. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.

We construct new rational approximants of Euler's constant that improve those of Aptekarev et al. (2007) and Rivoal (2009). The approximants are given in terms of certain (mixed type) multiple orthogonal polynomials associated with the…

The even and odd Zernike Polynomials R_n^m(x) can be expanded into sums of even and odd Chebyshev Polynomials T_i(x). This manuscript provides closed forms for the rational expansion coefficients c_{n,m,i} for a set of small 0 <= n-m <= 6…

In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients. We prove some Omega results under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis.

For a fixed odd prime $\ell$, we define a variant of the classical M\"{o}bius function on the poset of isomorphism classes of finite abelian $\ell$-groups, then we prove an analog of Hall's theorem on the vanishing of the M\"{o}bius…
