We prove that a bivariate polynomial f with exactly t non-zero terms, restricted to a real line {y=ax+b}, either has at most 6t-4 zeroes or vanishes over the whole line. As a consequence, we derive an alternative algorithm to decide whether…

We prove that any lower unitriangular and totally nonnegative matrix gives rise to a family of polynomials with only real zeros. This has consequences for problems in several areas of mathematics. We use it to develop a general theory for…

Ideals generated by adjacent 2-minors are studied. First, the problem when such an ideal is a prime ideal as well as the problem when such an ideal possesses a quadratic Gr\"obner basis is solved. Second, we describe explicitly a primary…

We provide several examples of bounded Laurent monomials of minors of a totally positive matrix, which can not be factored into a product of so called primitive ratios, thus showing that the conjecture about factorization of bounded ratios…

We study conditions on polynomials such that the ideal generated by their orbits under the symmetric group action becomes a monomial ideal or has a monomial radical. If the polynomials are homogeneous, we expect that such an ideal has a…

Let $X$ be a (real or complex) infinite dimensional linear space. We establish conditions on a homogeneous polynomial $P$ on $X$ so that, if $W$ is any finite dimensional subspace of $X$ on which $P$ vanishes, then $P$ vanishes on an…

We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…

To any lattice $L \subset \mathbb{Z}^{m}$ one can associate the lattice ideal $I_{L} \subset K[x_{1},...,x_{m}]$. This paper concerns the study of the relation between the binomial arithmetical rank and the minimal number of generators of…

We consider the problem of determining whether a monomial ideal is dominant. This property is critical for determining for which monomial ideals the Taylor resolution is minimal. We first analyze dominant ideals with a fixed least common…

In this paper, we deal with the problem of uniqueness of minimal system of binomial generators of a semigroup ideal. Concretely, we give different necessary and/or sufficient conditions for uniqueness of such minimal system of generators.…
