Given a central division algebra $D$ of degree $d$ over a field $F$, we associate to any standard polynomial $\phi(z)=z^n+c_{n-1} z^{n-1}+\dots+c_0$ over $D$ a "companion polynomial" $\Phi(z)$ of degree $n d$ with coefficients in $F$ whose…

Free Maxwell theory on general four-manifolds may, under certain conditions on the background geometry, exhibit holomorphic factorization in its partition function. We show that when this occurs, new discrete symmetries emerge at orbifold…

We study the problem of minimizing the supremum norm, on a segment of the real line or on a compact set in the plane, by polynomials with integer coefficients. The extremal polynomials are naturally called integer Chebyshev polynomials.…

Normality arguments are applied to study the oscillation of solutions of $f''+Af=0$, where the coefficient $A$ is analytic in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ and $\sup_{z\in\mathbb{D}} (1-|z|^2)^2|A(z)| < \infty$. It is shown that such…

Let f be a polinomial with coefficients in a finite field F. Let $\Psi : F \to C^{\ast}$ be a non-trivial additive character. In this paper we give bounds for the exponential sums $\sum_{x\in F^n} \Psi (Tr_{F/F_p} (f(x)))$ in some cases…

We introduce certain special polynomials in an arbitrary number of indeterminates over a finite field. These polynomials generalize the special polynomials associated to the Goss zeta function and Goss-Dirichlet $L$-functions over the ring…

This paper consists of three parts: First, letting $b_1(z)$, $b_2(z)$, $p_1(z)$ and $p_2(z)$ be nonzero polynomials such that $p_1(z)$ and $p_2(z)$ have the same degree $k\geq 1$ and distinct leading coefficients $1$ and $\alpha$,…

Let $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$. Set $f_{0}(x) = x$ and, for $n \geq 1$, define $f_{n}(x)$ $=$ $f(f_{n-1}(x))$. We describe several infinite families of polynomials for which the infinite product \prod_{n=0}^{\infty} (1 + \frac{1}{f_{n}(x)})…

The $n$-grid $E_n$ consists of $n$ equally spaced points in $[-1,1]$ including the endpoints $\pm 1$. The extremal polynomial $p_n^*$ is the polynomial that maximizes the uniform norm $\| p \|_{[-1,1]}$ among polynomials $p$ of degree $\leq…

We use Turan type inequalities to give new non-asymptotic bounds on the extreme zeros of orthogonal polynomials in terms of the coefficients of their three term recurrence. Most of our results deal with symmetric polynomials satisfying the…
