Volume polynomials measure the growth of Minkowski sums of convex bodies and of tensor powers of positive line bundles on projective varieties. We show that Aluffi's covolume polynomials are precisely the polynomial differential operators…

We consider a class of strongly q-log-convex polynomials based on a triangular recurrence relation with linear coefficients, and we show that the Bell polynomials, the Bessel polynomials, the Ramanujan polynomials and the Dowling…

We derive conditions for a nonholonomic system subject to nonlinear constraints (obeying Chetaev's rule) to preserve a smooth volume form. When applied to affine constraints, these conditions dictate that a basic invariant density exists if…

We investigate Chebyshev polynomials corresponding to Jacobi weights and determine monotonicity properties of their related Widom factors. This complements work by Bernstein from 1930-31 where the asymptotical behavior of the related…

In this note, we shall provide several properties of hypergeometric Bernoulli numbers and polynomials, including sums of products identity, differential equations and recurrence formulas.

We give derivations of some basic results for the Bernstein approximation in $n$ variables that are useful in investigating copulas. It is shown that Bernstein approximations of copulas are again copulas. We exhibit a stochastic…

We say that a random integer variable $X$ is monotone if the modulus of the characteristic function of $X$ is decreasing on $[0,\pi]$. This is the case for many commonly encountered variables, e.g., Bernoulli, Poisson and geometric random…

We present a Hilbert space geometric approach to the problem of characterizing the positive bivariate trigonometric polynomials that can be represented as the square of a two variable polynomial possessing a certain stability requirement,…

Contrary to the expected behavior, we show the existence of non-invertible deformations of Lie algebras which can generate invariants for the coadjoint representation, as well as delete cohomology with values in the trivial or adjoint…

We study linear operators preserving the property of being a volume polynomial. More, precisely we show that a linear operator preserves this property if the associated symbol is itself a volume polynomial. This can be seen as an analogue…

It is an open question whether the fractional parts of nonlinear polynomials at integers have the same fine-scale statistics as a Poisson point process. Most results towards an affirmative answer have so far been restricted to almost sure…

We study statistical properties of Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on GL(n). For most Hecke-Maass cusp forms, we give the asymptotic number of nonvanishing coefficients, show that there is a positive proportion of sign changes…

This paper is a continuation of the papers [21] and [22]. Here we shall investigate the asymptotic behaviour of Weyl and Bernstein numbers of embeddings of Sobolev spaces with dominating mixed smoothness into Lebesgue spaces.

We prove positivity results about linearization and connection coefficients for Bessel polynomials. The proof is based on a recursion formula and explicit formulas for the coefficients in special cases. The result implies that the…

A complete intersection of n polynomials in n indeterminates has only a finite number of zeros. In this paper we address the following question: how do the zeros change when the coefficients of the polynomials are perturbed? In the first…

We give the asymptotic behavior of the ratio of two neighboring multiple orthogonal polynomials under the condition that the recurrence coefficients in the nearest neighbor recurrence relations converge.

Zeros of many ensembles of polynomials with random coefficients are asymptotically equidistributed near the unit circumference. We give quantitative estimates for such equidistribution in terms of the expected discrepancy and expected…

We study the asymptotic properties of monic orthogonal polynomials (OPs) with respect to some Freud weights when the degree of the polynomial tends to infinity, including the asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients, the nontrivial…

We introduce a suitable notion of asymptotic smoothness on infinite dimensional Banach spaces, and we prove that, under some structural restrictions on the space, the convex envelope of an asymptotically smooth function is asymptotically…

Using the formalism of polynomials with positive coefficients, the fact that exactly half of all subsets of a finite set have even cardinality can be generalized asymptotically.
