We define the generalized basic hypergeometric polynomial of degree $N \geq 1$ in terms of the generalized basic hypergeometric function, which depends on (arbitrary, generic, possibly complex) parameters $q \neq 1$, the $r \geq 0$…

Let $U_{n,d}$ denote the uniform matroid of rank $d$ on $n$ elements. We obtain some recurrence relations satisfied by Speyer's $g$-polynomials $g_{U_{n,d}}(t)$ of $U_{n,d}$. Based on these recurrence relations, we prove that the polynomial…

It is shown that any smooth closed orientable manifold of dimension $2k + 1$, $k \geq 2$, admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^{3k}$. This improves by $1$ the previously known lower bound of $3k+1$ on the possible…

We consider subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ of the algebra $M_n$ of $n \times n$ complex matrices that contain all diagonal matrices, known in the literature as the structural matrix algebras (SMAs). Let $\mathcal{A} \subseteq M_n$ be an…

The Boolean lattice $2^{[n]}$ is the power set of $[n]$ ordered by inclusion. A chain $c_{0}\subset...\subset c_{k}$ in $2^{[n]}$ is rank-symmetric, if $|c_{i}|+|c_{k-i}|=n$ for $i=0,...,k$; and it is symmetric, if $|c_{i}|=(n-k)/2+i$. We…

In this text we study the regularity of matrices with special polynomial entries. Barring some mild conditions we show that these matrices are regular if a natural limit size is not exceeded. The proof draws connections to generalized…

We consider the set of monic degree $d$ real univariate polynomials $Q_d=x^d+\sum_{j=0}^{d-1}a_jx^j$ and its {\em hyperbolicity domain} $\Pi_d$, i.e. the subset of values of the coefficients $a_j$ for which the polynomial $Q_d$ has all…
