We study certain overlap coefficients appearing in representation theory of the quantum algebra $\U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2(\C))$. The overlap coefficients can be identified as products of Askey-Wilson functions, leading to an algebraic…
In this short note, we prove Hadwiger's conjecture for strongly monotypic polytopes.
We adapt ideas of Phong, Stein and Sturm and ideas of Ikromov and M\"uller from the continuous setting to various discrete settings, obtaining sharp bounds for exponential sums and the number of solutions to polynomial congruences for…
Given r>=n quasi-homogeneous polynomials in n variables, the existence of a certain duality is shown and explicited in terms of generalized Morley forms. This result, that can be seen as a generalization of [3,corollary 3.6.1.4] (where this…
We adapt the hypercube decompositions introduced by Blundell-Buesing-Davies-Veli\v{c}kovi\'{c}-Williamson to prove the Combinatorial Invariance Conjecture for Kazhdan-Lusztig $R$-polynomials in the case of elementary intervals in $S_n$.…
We prove a combinatorial formula for the Macdonald polynomial H_mu(x;q,t) which had been conjectured by the first author. Corollaries to our main theorem include the expansion of H_mu(x;q,t) in terms of LLT polynomials, a new proof of the…
We provide a reduction in the classification problem for non-compact, homogeneous, Einstein manifolds. Using this work, we verify the (Generalized) Alekseevskii Conjecture for a large class of homogeneous spaces.
We show that the only monic orthogonal polynomials $\{P_n\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ that satisfy $$\pi(x)\mathcal{D}_{q}^2P_{n}(x)=\sum_{j=-2}^{2}a_{n,n+j}P_{n+j}(x),\; x=\cos\theta,\;~ a_{n,n-2}\neq 0,~ n=2,3,\dots,$$ where $\pi(x)$ is a…
We study the monic orthogonal polynomials with respect to a singularly perturbed Airy weight. By using Chen and Ismail's ladder operator approach, we derive a discrete system satisfied by the recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal…
In this paper, using the method proposed by Dembo and Mukherjee [5], we obtain the persistence exponents of random Weyl polynomials in both cases: half nonnegative axis and the whole real axis. Our result is a confirmation to the…
In 1904, Dickson [5] stated a very important conjecture. Now people call it Dickson's conjecture. In 1958, Schinzel and Sierpinski [14] generalized Dickson's conjecture to the higher order integral polynomial case. However, they did not…
We study a family of "classical" orthogonal polynomials which satisfy (apart from a 3-term recurrence relation) an eigenvalue problem with a differential operator of Dunkl-type. These polynomials can be obtained from the little $q$-Jacobi…
In their study of the Yamabe problem in the presence of isometry group, Hebey and Vaugon announced a conjecture. This conjecture generalizes Aubin's conjecture, which has already been proven and is sufficient to solve the Yamabe problem. In…
We reveal a natural algebraic problem whose complexity appears to interpolate between the well-known complexity classes BQP and NP: (*) Decide whether a univariate polynomial with exactly m monomial terms has a p-adic rational root. In…
In this paper, we will give suitable conditions on differential polynomials $Q(f)$ such that they take every finite non-zero value infinitely often, where $f$ is a meromorphic function in complex plane. These results are related to Problem…
We investigate necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary polynomial of degree $n$ to be trivial, i.e. to have the form $a(z-b)^n$. These results are related to an open problem, conjectured in 2001 by E. Casas- Alvero. It says,…
The first author introduced a sequence of polynomials (\cite{8}, sequence A174531) defined recursively. One of the main results of this study is proof of the integrality of its coefficients.
In the present paper we prove the following conjecture in Kingman, J.F.C., Random walks with spherical symmetry, Acta Math.,109, (1963), 11-53. concerning a famous Raikov's theorem of decomposition of Poisson random variables: "If a radial…
In this paper, we introduce the so-called elliptic Askey-Wilson polynomials which are homogeneous polynomials in two special theta functions. With regard to the significance of polynomials of such kind, we establish some general elliptic…
A number of authors have proven explicit versions of Lehmer's conjecture for polynomials whose coefficients are all congruent to 1 modulo m. We prove a similar result for polynomials f(X) that are divisible in (Z/mZ)[X] by a polynomial of…
