We generalize some previous results on random polynomials in several complex variables. A standard setting is to consider random polynomials $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_jp_j(z)$ that are linear combinations of basis polynomials $\{p_j\}$…

Kantor and Trishin described the algebra of polynomial invariants of the adjoint representation of the Lie supergalgebra $gl(m|n)$ and a related algebra $A_s$ of what they called pseudosymmetric polynomials over an algebraically closed…

For any finite partially ordered set $P$, the $P$-Eulerian polynomial is the generating function for the descent number over the set of linear extensions of $P$, and is closely related to the order polynomial of $P$ arising in the theory of…

We make progress on a conjecture of Cilleruelo on the growth of the least common multiple of consecutive values of an irreducible polynomial $f$ on the additional hypothesis that the polynomial be even. This strengthens earlier work of…

This paper discusses the location of zeros of polynomials in a polynomial sequence $\{P_n(z)\}$ generated by a three-term recurrence relation of the form $P_n(z)+ B(z)P_{n-1}(z) +A(z) P_{n-k}(z)=0$ with $k>2$ and the standard initial…

Let $z=(z_1, ..., z_n)$ and $\Delta=\sum_{i=1}^n \frac {\partial^2}{\partial z^2_i}$ the Laplace operator. A formal power series $P(z)$ is said to be {\it Hessian Nilpotent}(HN) if its Hessian matrix $\Hes P(z)=(\frac {\partial^2…

A Lee-Yang polynomial $ p(z_{1},\ldots,z_{n}) $ is a polynomial that has no zeros in the polydisc $ \mathbb{D}^{n} $ and its inverse $ (\mathbb{C}\setminus\overline{\mathbb{D}})^{n} $. We show that any real-rooted exponential polynomial of…

Brannan showed that a normalized univalent polynomial of the form $P(z)=z+a_2 z^2+\ldots + a_{n-1}z^{n-1}+\frac{z^n}{n}$ is starlike if and only if $a_2=\ldots=a_{n-1}=0$. We give a new and simple proof of his result, showing further that…

In recent work with J.Mostovoy and T.Stanford,the author found that for every natural number n, a certain polynomial in the coefficients of the Conway polynomial is a primitive integer-valued degree n Vassiliev invariant, but that modulo 2,…

If $P(z)=\sum_{j=0}^{n}a_jz^j$ is a polynomial of degree $n$ having no zero in $|z|<1,$ then it was recently proved that for every $p\in[0,+\infty]$ and $s=0,1,\ldots,n-1,$ \begin{align*} \left\|a_nz+\frac{a_s}{\binom{n}{s}}\right\|_{p}\leq…

Let $\P_{n}^c(\bar{\mu},\bar{\nu})$ be the set of all complex polynomials $p(z)=\prod_{i=1}^{m}(z-z_i)^{\mu_i}$, $\sum_{i=1}^m\mu_i=n$, with derivatives of the form $$ p'(z)=n\prod_{i=1}^{m}(z-z_i)^{\mu_i-1}\prod_{j=1}^{k}(z-\xi_j)^{\nu_j},…

The Apery polynomials are defined by $A_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}^2{n+k\choose k}^2 x^k$ for all nonnegative integers $n$. We confirm several conjectures of Z.-W. Sun on the congruences for the sum $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(-1)^k(2k+1)…

Let $P_1,\dots,P_m\in\mathbb{Z}[y]$ be any linearly independent polynomials with zero constant term. We show that there exists a $\gamma>0$ such that any subset of $\mathbb{F}_q$ of size at least $q^{1-\gamma}$ contains a nontrivial…

We show that for a Steinhaus random multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{D}$ and any polynomial $P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of $\text{deg}\ P\ge 2$ which is not of the form $w(x+c)^{d}$ for some $w\in \mathbb{Z}$, $c\in \mathbb{Q}$,…

The (generalised) Mellin transforms of certain Chebyshev and Gegenbauer functions based upon the Chebyshev and Gegenbauer polynomials, have polynomial factors $p_n(s)$, whose zeros lie all on the `critical line' $\Re\,s=1/2$ or on the real…

For a commutative ring $R$, a polynomial $f\in R[x]$ is called separable if $R[x]/f$ is a separable $R$-algebra. We derive formulae for the number of separable polynomials when $R = \mathbb{Z}/n$, extending a result of L. Carlitz. For…

Many combinatorial sequences (for example, the Catalan and Motzkin numbers) may be expressed as the constant term of $P(x)^k Q(x)$, for some Laurent polynomials $P(x)$ and $Q(x)$ in the variable $x$ with integer coefficients. Denoting such…

We study the distribution of partial sums of Rademacher random multiplicative functions $(f(n))_n$ evaluated at polynomial arguments. We show that for a polynomial $P\in \mathbb Z[x]$ that is a product of at least two distinct linear…

Let $S$ be a dense subring of the real numbers. In this paper we prove a polynomial version of Van der Waerden's theorem near zero. In fact, we prove that if $p_1,\ldots,p_m \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ are polynomials such that $p_i(0) = 0$ and…

For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…
