In a recent work, Maciej Do\l{}e\k{}ga and the author have given a formula of the expansion of the Jack polynomial $J^{(\alpha)}_\lambda$ in the power-sum basis as a non-orientability generating series of bipartite maps whose edges are…

Let T(x) in k[x] be a monic non-constant polynomial and write R=k[x] / (T) the quotient ring. Consider two bivariate polynomials a(x, y), b(x, y) in R[y]. In a first part, T = p^e is assumed to be the power of an irreducible polynomial p. A…

We initiate the study of the coefficients of the distinct monomials in the expansion of the multivariate polynomials $x_1(x_1+x_2)\cdots(x_1+x_2+\cdots+x_n), n\in\N$. In particular we obtain several results regarding their maximal…

The polynomials that arise as coefficients when a power series is raised to the power $x$ include many important special cases, which have surprising properties that are not widely known. This paper explains how to recognize and use such…

We consider a deformation of Kerov character polynomials, linked to Jack symmetric functions. It has been introduced recently by M. Lassalle, who formulated several conjectures on these objects, suggesting some underlying combinatorics. We…

We solve the problem of factoring polynomials $V_n(x) \pm 1$ and $W_n(x) \pm 1$ where $V_n(x)$ and $W_n(x)$ are Chebyshev polynomials of the third and fourth kinds. The method of proof is based on previous work by Wolfram [12] for factoring…

An extension (K(X)|K, v) of valued fields is said to be valuation transcendental if we have equality in the Abhyankar inequality. Minimal pairs of definition are fundamental objects in the investigation of valuation transcendental…

We define a class of multivariate Laurent polynomials closely related to Chebyshev polynomials, and prove the simple but somewhat surprising (in view of the fact that the signs of the coefficients of the Chebyshev polynomials themselves…

We review recent results on necessary and sufficient conditions for measures on $\mathbb{R}$ and $\partial\mathbb{D}$ to yield exponential decay of the recursion coefficients of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials. We include results…

Asymptotic approximations of Jacobi polynomials are given in terms of elementary functions for large degree $n$ and parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$. From these new results, asymptotic expansions of the zeros are derived and methods are…

We consider polynomials which take integer values on the integers (IVPs), and satisfy an additional growth condition on the natural numbers. Elkies and Speyer, answering a question by Dimitrov, showed there is a critical exponential growth…

Given a basis for a polynomial ring, the coefficients in the expansion of a product of some of its elements in terms of this basis are called linearization coefficients. These coefficients have combinatorial significance for many classical…

We show that the number of real roots of random trigonometric polynomials with i.i.d. coefficients, which are either bounded or satisfy the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, satisfies an exponential concentration of measure.

We state a kind of Euclidian division theorem: given a polynomial P(x) and a divisor d of the degree of P, there exist polynomials h(x),Q(x),R(x) such that P(x) = h(Q(x)) +R(x), with deg h=d. Under some conditions h,Q,R are unique, and Q is…

We prove that the minimum of the modulus of a random trigonometric polynomial with Gaussian coefficients, properly normalized, has limiting exponential distribution.

We prove a new upper bound for the number of smooth values of a polynomial with integer coefficients. This improves Timofeev's previous result unless the polynomial is a product of linear polynomials with integer coefficients. As an…

An algebraic $q$-difference equation is considered. A sufficient condition for the existence of a formal power-logarithmic expansion of a solution to such an equation in the neighborhood of zero is proposed. An example of applying this…

A new powerful method to calculate Feynman diagrams is proposed. It consists in setting up a Taylor series expansion in the external momenta squared (in general multivariable). The Taylor coefficients are obtained from the original diagram…

Let $k_i\ (i=1,2,\ldots,t)$ be natural numbers with $k_1>k_2>\cdots>k_t>0$, $k_1\geq 2$ and $t<k_1.$ Given real numbers $\alpha_{ji}\ (1\leq j\leq t,\ 1\leq i\leq s)$, we consider polynomials of the shape…

The Kauffman-Vogel polynomials are three variable polynomial invariants of $4$-valent rigid vertex graphs. A one-variable specialization of the Kauffman-Vogel polynomials for unoriented $4$-valent rigid vertex graphs was given by using the…
