Heath-Brown proved that for a positive proportion of integers $n$, $n^3+2$ has a prime factor larger than $n^{1+c}$ with $c=10^{-303}$. We generalize this result to arbitrary monic irreducible cubic polynomial of $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with $c$…

In this article, we investigate the statistical distribution and asymptotic behavior of the family of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ having at least one root in a fixed number field $K$. Although the framework of thin sets implies…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of p-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the factorial moments of the number of roots of this…

A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we enumerate self-reciprocal irreducible monic polynomials over a finite field with prescribed leading coefficients.…

In this work we compute the families of classical Hamiltonians in two degrees of freedom in which the Normal Variational Equation around an invariant plane falls in Schroedinger type with polynomial or trigonometrical potential. We analyze…

Let $f(T)$ be a monic polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Extending earlier results in the literature, but now allowing $(q,2d)>1$, we give a criterion for $f$ to satisfy the following property: for…

We study the number $M_n(T)$ be the number of integer $n\times n$ matrices $A$ with entries bounded in absolute value by $T$ such that the Galois group of characteristic polynomial of $A$ is not the full symmetric group $S_n$. One knows…

The space of monic centered cubic polynomials with marked critical points is isomorphic to C^2. For each n>0, the locus Sn formed by all polynomials with a specified critical point periodic of exact period n forms an affine algebraic set.…

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…

We introduce a sequence $P_{2n}$ of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed. We prove that the ratio between number of nonunimodular roots of $P_{2n}$ and its degree $d$ has a limit when…

Given a differential operator T=\sum_{i=1}^k Q_i(z)d^i/dz^i where each Q_i(z) is a polynomial define r=max_i deg(Q_i(z)-i). Assuming that r is nonnegative we consider the following multiparameter spectral problem: for each positive integer…

Suppose that $k\geq 3.5\times 10^6$ and $\hH=\{h_1,\ldots,h_{k_0}\}$ is admissible. Then for any $m\geq 1$, the set $$ \{m(h_j-h_i):\,h_i<h_j\} $$ contains at least one Polignac number.

Let $E_k$ be the normalized Eisenstein series of weight $k$ on $\mathrm{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $\varphi_k$ be the polynomial that encodes the $j$-invariants of non-elliptic zeros of $E_k$. In 2001, Gekeler observed that the polynomials…

Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…
