In 1999, Iwan Duursma defined the zeta function for a linear code as a generating function of its Hamming weight enumerator. It can also be defined for other homogeneous polynomials not corresponding to existing codes. If the homogeneous…
Let $f \in \mathbb{R}[x]$ be a polynomial with real coefficients. We say that $f$ is eventually non-negative if $f^m$ has non-negative coefficients for all sufficiently large $m \in \mathbb{N}$. In this short note, we give a classification…
For a class of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, which in particular includes all quadratic polynomials, and also trinomials of some special form, we show that, under some natural conditions (necessary for quadratic polynomials), the set…
In this note we settle two open problems in the theory of permanents by using recent results from other areas of mathematics. Bapat conjectured that certain quotients of permanents, which generalize symmetric function means, are concave. We…
Let f be a non constant meromorphic function and a(not identically zero or infinity) be a meromorphic function satisfying T(r,a) = o(T(r,f)) as r tends to infinity, and p(z) be a polynomial of degree n greater than or equal to 1 with p(0) =…
Given two polynomials $P(\underline x)$, $Q(\underline x)$ in one or more variables and with integer coefficients, how does the property that they are coprime relate to their values $P(\underline n), Q(\underline n)$ at integer points…
For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…
In this paper, we show that the Jacobian conjecture holds for gradient maps in dimension n <= 3 over a field K of characteristic zero. We do this by extending the following result for n <= 2 by F. Dillen to n <= 3: if f is a polynomial of…
Let h be a complex meromorphic function decomposed in two different ways P(f) and Q(g), where f, g are meromorphic functions and P, Q are rational functions. We follow an approach due to C.-C. Yang, P. Li and K. H. Ha who handle similar…
Let $K$ be a number field of degree $n$ with ring of integers $O_K$. By means of a criterion of Gilmer for polynomially dense subsets of the ring of integers of a number field, we show that, if $h\in K[X]$ maps every element of $O_K$ of…
We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…
In this paper, we establish transcendental entire function $A(z)$ and polynomial $B(z)$ such that the differential equation $f''+A(z)f'+B(z)f=0$, has all non-trivial solution of infinite order. We use the notion of \emph{critical rays} of…
We study a random polynomial of degree $n$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where the coefficients are independent and identically distributed and uniformly chosen from the squares in $\mathbb{F}_q$. Our main result demonstrates that…
The existence of sufficiently many finite order meromorphic solutions of a differential equation, or difference equation, or differential-difference equation, appears to be a good indicator of integrability. In this paper, we investigate…
We study the number of irreducible polynomials over $\mathbf{F}_{q}$ with some coefficients prescribed. Using the technique developed by Bourgain, we show that there is an irreducible polynomial of degree $n$ with $r$ coefficients…
In this work we relate the deterministic complexity of factoring polynomials (over finite fields) to certain combinatorial objects we call m-schemes. We extend the known conditional deterministic subexponential time polynomial factoring…
We generalize both the notion of polynomial functions on Lie groups and the notion of horizontally affine maps on Carnot groups. We fix a subset $S$ of the algebra $\mathfrak g$ of left-invariant vector fields on a Lie group $\mathbb G$ and…
The valence of a function f at a point $z_0$ is the number of distinct, finite solutions to $f(z) = z_0.$ In this paper, we bound the valence of complex-valued harmonic polynomials in the plane for some special harmonic polynomials of the…
An old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, proved by Schinzel, predicted a bound for the number of terms of a polynomial $g(x) \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ when its square $g(x)^2$ has a given number of terms. Further conjectures and results arose,…
We consider absolutely irreducible polynomials $f \in Z[x,y]$ with $\deg_x(f)=m$, $\deg_y(f)=n$ and height $H$. We show that for any prime $p$ with $p>c_{mn} H^{2mn+n-1}$ the reduction $f \bmod p$ is also absolutely irreducible. Furthermore…
