Generalized Heisenberg algebras $\H(f)$ for any polynomial $f(h)\in\C[h]$ have been used to explain various physical systems and many physical phenomena for the last 20 years. In this paper, we first obtain the center of $\H(f)$, and the…

A polynomial of degree $n$ in two variables is shown to be uniquely determined by its Radon projections taken over $[n/2]+1$ parallel lines in each of the $(2[(n+1)/2]+1)$ equidistant directions along the unit circle.

We show that the apolar ideal to the determinant of a generic symmetric matrix is generated in degree two, and the apolar ideal to the permanent of a generic symmetric matrix is generated in degrees two and three. In each case we specify…

We determine which quadratic polynomials in three variables are expanders over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. More precisely, we prove that for a quadratic polynomial $f\in \mathbb{F}[x,y,z]$, which is not of the form $g(h(x)+k(y)+l(z))$,…

Let I be an arbitrary ideal in C[[x,y]]. We use the Newton algorithm to compute by induction the motivic zeta function of the ideal, yielding only few poles, associated to the faces of the successive Newton polygons. We associate a minimal…

Using Casorati determinants of Meixner polynomials $(m_n^{a,c})_n$, we construct for each pair $\F=(F_1,F_2)$ of finite sets of positive integers a sequence of polynomials $m_n^{a,c;\F}$, $n\in \sigma_\F$, which are eigenfunctions of a…

We study bihomogeneous systems defining, non-zero dimensional, biprojective varieties for which the projection onto the first group of variables results in a finite set of points. To compute (with) the 0-dimensional projection and the…

We compute the primary decomposition of certain ideals generated by subsets of minors in a generic matrix or in a generic symmetric matrix, or subsets of Pfaffians in a generic skew-symmetric matrix. Specifically, the ideals we consider are…

Newton's identities provide a way to express elementary symmetric polynomials in terms of power polynomials over fields of characteristic zero. In this article, we study the failure of this relation in positive characteristic and what can…

The scheme of divided differences is widely used in many approximation and interpolation problems. Computing the Newton coefficients of the interpolating polynomial is the first step of the Bj\"{o}rck and Pereyra algorithm for solving…

The usual univariate interpolation problem of finding a monic polynomial f of degree n that interpolates n given values is well understood. This paper studies a variant where f is required to be composite, say, a composition of two…
