This paper investigates the location of the zeros of a sequence of polynomials generated by a rational function with a denominator of the form $G(z,t)=P(t)+zt^{r}$, where the zeros of $P$ are positive and real. We show that every member of…
For any two $n$-$th$ order polynomials $a(s)$ and $b(s),$ the Hurwitz stability of their convex combination is necessary and sufficient for the existence of a polynomial $c(s)$ such that $c(s)/a(s)$ and $c(s)/b(s)$ are both strictly…
In this paper, we give sharp upper and lower bounds for the number of degenerate monic (and arbitrary, not necessarily monic) polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree $n \ge 2$ and height bounded by $H \ge 2$. The polynomial is…
We show that the base space of a homotopy cofibration is locally hyperbolic under various conditions. In particular, if these manifolds admit a rationally elliptic closure, then almost all punctured manifolds and almost all manifolds with…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p \neq 2$, and let $f(x)$ be a sextic polynomial irreducible over $K$ with no repeated roots, whose Galois group is isomorphic to $\A_5$. If the jacobian $J(C)$ of the hyperelliptic curve $C:y^2=f(x)$…
Analysing the cubic sectors of a real polynomial of degree n, a modification of the Newton Rule is Signs is proposed with which stricter upper bound on the number of real roots can be found. A new necessary condition for reality of the…
A negatively curved hyperbolic cone metric is called rigid if it is determined (up to isotopy) by the support of its Liouville current, and flexible otherwise. We provide a complete characterization of rigidity and flexibility, prove that…
It is noted that using complex Hessian equations and the concavity inequalities for elementary symmetric polynomials implies a generalized form of Hodge index inequality. Inspired by this result, using G{\aa}rding's theory for hyperbolic…
The prime divisors of a polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients are those primes $p$ for which $P(x) \equiv 0 \pmod{p}$ is solvable. Our main result is that the common prime divisors of any several polynomials are exactly the prime…
Revisiting canonical integration of the classical solid near a uniform rotation, canonical action angle coordinates, hyperbolic and elliptic, are constructed in terms of various power series with coefficients which are polynomials in a…
In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…
In this paper, we investigate the solubility of homogeneous polynomial equations. The work of Browning, Le boudec, Sawin [3] shows that almost all homogeneous equations of degree $d\geq 4$ in $d+1$ or more variables satisfy the Hasse…
A polynomial $p\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ is a divisor of some polynomial $0\neq f\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ with non-negative coefficients if and only if $p$ does not have a positive real root. The lowest possible degree of such $f$ for a given $p$ is known…
Let F be a homogeneous real polynomial of even degree in any number of variables. We consider the problem of giving explicit conditions on the coefficients so that F is positive definite or positive semi-definite. In this note we produce a…
It is shown that if two hyperbolic polynomials have a particular factorization into quadratics, then their roots satisfy a power majorization relation whenever key coefficients in their factorizations satisfy a corresponding majorization…
A polynomial f (multivariate over a field) is decomposable if f = g(h) with g univariate of degree at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and an approximation to their number…
We consider random polynomials $p_n(x)=\xi_0+\xi_1+\dots+\xi_n x^n$ whose coefficients are independent and identically distributed with zero mean, unit variance, and bounded $(2+\epsilon)^{th}$ moment (for some $\epsilon>0$), also known as…
We study the stratification of the space of monic polynomials with real coefficients according to the number and multiplicities of real zeros. In the first part, for each of these strata we provide a purely combinatorial chain complex…
We prove that non-hyperbolic non-renormalizable quadratic polynomials are expansion inducing. For renormalizable polynomials a counterpart of this statement is that in the case of unbounded combinatorics renormalized mappings become almost…
We consider polynomials $Q:=\sum _{j=0}^da_jx^j$, $a_j\in \mathbb{R}^*$, with all roots real. When the {\em sign pattern} $\sigma (Q):=({\rm sgn}(a_d),{\rm sgn}(a_{d-1})$, $\ldots$, ${\rm sgn}(a_0))$ has $\tilde{c}$ sign changes, the…
