Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ be fixed, $Q>1$ be a real parameter and $\mathcal{P}_n(Q)$ denote the set of polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$ of degree $n$ and height at most $Q$. In this paper we investigate the following counting problems regarding…

We consider the equation $P(Q(x_1,\ldots,x_\nu))=Q(P(x_1),\ldots,P(x_\nu))$ in polynomials over the field of complex numbers and prove that if ${\rm deg}(P)>1$, then it is only solvable in polynomials that are affinely conjugate to…

We analyze the polynomial solutions of a nonlinear integral equation, generalizing the work of C. Bender and E. Ben-Naim. We show that, in some cases, an orthogonal solution exists and we give its general form in terms of kernel…

We study separable plus quadratic (SPQ) polynomials, i.e., polynomials that are the sum of univariate polynomials in different variables and a quadratic polynomial. Motivated by the fact that nonnegative separable and nonnegative quadratic…

On the coordinate plane, the slopes $a$ and $b$ of two straight lines and the slope $c$ of one of their angle bisectors satisfy the equation $(a-c)^2(b^2+1) = (b-c)^2(a^2+1).$ Recently, an explicit formula for nontrivial integral solutions…

The purpose of this paper is to study a class of ill-posed differential equations. In some settings, these differential equations exhibit uniqueness but not existence, while in others they exhibit existence but not uniqueness. An example of…

In the paper we study the distribution of the discriminant $D(P)$ of polynomials $P$ from the class $\mathcal{P}_{n}(Q)$ of all integer polynomials of degree $n$ and height at most $Q$. We evaluate the asymptotic number of polynomials $P\in…

Consider the $n$th degree polynomial equation, $X^n+A_{n-1}X^{n-1}+...+A_1X+A_0=0$ over the ring of 2 by 2 complex matrices. If this equation has more than ${2n \choose 2}$ solutions, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show here that…

We prove that if $P(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ is an integer polynomial of degree $n$ and having $P(0) = 1$, then either $P(X)$ is a product of cyclotomic polynomials, or else at least one of the complex roots of $P$ belongs to the disk $|z|…

I considered definition and properties of polynomial in no-commutative algebra. There exists polynomial which has finite, infinite or empty set of roots. For instance, the polynomial $$p_1(x)=ix-xi-1$$ have no root and the polynomial…

In this paper, we prove that the equation $x^2-(p^{2k+2}+1)y^2=-p^{2l+1}$, $l \in \{0,1,\dots,k\}, k \geq 0$, where $p$ is an odd prime number, is not solvable in positive integers $x$ and $y$. By combining that result with other known…

Given a real univariate degree $d$ polynomial $P$, the numbers $pos_k$ and $neg_k$ of positive and negative roots of $P^{(k)}$, $k=0$, $\ldots$, $d-1$, must be admissible, i.e. they must satisfy certain inequalities resulting from Rolle's…

For a polynomial P, we consider the sequence of iterated integrals of ln P(x). This sequence is expressed in terms of the zeros of P(x). In the special case of ln(1 + x^2), arithmetic properties of certain coefficients arising are…

In this paper, we obtain several new classes of irreducible polynomials having integer coefficients whose zeros lie inside an open disk around the origin or outside a closed annular region in the complex plane. Such irreducible polynomials…

For each prime p other than 3, and each power q=p^k, we present two large classes of permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r B(X^{q-1}) which have at most five terms, where B(X) is a polynomial with coefficients in {1,-1}. The…

We investigate a family of Diophantine polynomial equations which involve continuant functions. In particular, given a polynomial $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, we consider the equation $P(K_n(x_1,\ldots, x_n)) =…

We shall show that, for any positive integer $D>0$ and any primes $p_1, p_2$ not dividing $D$, the diophantine equation $x^2+D=2^s p_1^k p_2^l$ has at most $63$ integer solutions $(x, k, l, s)$ with $x, k, l\geq 0$ and $s\in \{0, 2\}$.

In this study, we find continued fraction expansion of sqrt(d) when d=a^2+2a where a is positive integer. We consider the integer solutions of the Pell equation x^2-(a^2+2a)y^2=N when N={-1,+1,-4,+4}. We formulate the n-th solution…
