We solve the problem of characterizing the existence of a polynomial matrix of fixed degree when its eigenstructure (or part of it) and some of its rows (columns) are prescribed. More specifically, we present a solution to the row (column)…

Many graph polynomials, such as the Tutte polynomial, the interlace polynomial and the matching polynomial, have both a recursive definition and a defining subset expansion formula. In this paper we present a general, logic-based framework…

We introduce the Insertion Chain Complex, a higher-dimensional extension of insertion graphs, as a new framework for analyzing finite sets of words. We study its topological and combinatorial properties, in particular its homology groups,…

I describe an empirical-yet-rigorous, algorithm, based on Riordan's rook polynomials and the so-called C-finite ansatz, fully implemented in the accompanying Maple package (http://www.math.rutgers.edu/~zeilberg/tokhniot/MENAGES ), MENAGES,…

For a sequence of polynomials $\{p_k(t)\}$ in one real or complex variable, where $p_k$ has degree $k$, for $k\ge 0$, we find explicit expressions and recurrence relations for infinite matrices whose entries are the coefficients $d(n,m,k)$,…

The solution to the general univariate polynomial equation has been sought for centuries. It is well known there is no general solution in radicals for degrees five and above. The hyper-Catalan numbers $C[m_2,m_3,m_4,\ldots]$ count the ways…

The Collatz conjecture is explored using polynomials based on a binary numeral system. It is shown that the degree of the polynomials, on average, decreases after a finite number of steps of the Collatz operation, which provides a weak…

A sequence is difference algebraic (or D-algebraic) if finitely many shifts of its general term satisfy a polynomial relationship; that is, they are the coordinates of a generic point on an affine hypersurface. The corresponding equations…
