We consider the zeros of exceptional orthogonal polynomials (XOP). Exceptional orthogonal polynomials were originally discovered as eigenfunctions of second order differential operators that exist outside the classical Bochner-Brenke…
We study globally supersymmetric 3d gauge theories on curved manifolds by describing the coupling of 3d topological gauge theories, with both Yang-Mills and Chern-Simons terms in the action, to background topological gravity. In our…
In this paper, we study the arithmetics of skew polynomial rings over finite fields, mostly from an algorithmic point of view. We give various algorithms for fast multiplication, division and extended Euclidean division. We give a precise…
We consider polynomials of bi-degree $(n,1)$ over the skew field of quaternions where the indeterminates commute with each other and with all coefficients. Polynomials of this type do not generally admit factorizations. We recall a…
Polynomials whose zeros are symmetric either to the real line or to the unit circle are very important in mathematics and physics. We can classify them into three main classes: the self-conjugate polynomials, whose zeros are symmetric to…
Answering problems of Manin, we use the critical $L$-values of even weight $k\geq 4$ newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ to define zeta-polynomials $Z_f(s)$ which satisfy the functional equation $Z_f(s)=\pm Z_f(1-s)$, and which obey the…
We develop the tools to bound extreme roots of multivariate real zero polynomials globally. This is done through the use of a relaxation that approximates their rigidly convex sets. This relaxation can easily be constructed using the degree…
Let $\mathcal{F}_n$ be the set of unitary polynomials of degree $n \ge 2$ that have their roots in $\mathbb{Z}^*$. We note $$ Q(x) := x^n+a_{1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_{n}. $$ We show that any two fixed consecutive coefficients $(a_{j},a_{j+1})$ ($j…
There are three types of results in this paper. The first, extending a representation theorem on a conformal mapping that omits two values of equal modulus. This was due to Brickman and Wilken. They constructed a representation as a convex…
Connection of flat polynomials with some spectral questions in ergodic theory is discussed. A necessary condition for a sequence of polynomials of the type $\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \big(1 +\sum_{j=1}^{N-1} z^{n_j}\big)$ to be flat in almost…
We consider the unconstrained optimization of multivariate trigonometric polynomials by the sum-of-squares hierarchy of lower bounds. We first show a convergence rate of $O(1/s^2)$ for the relaxation with degree $s$ without any assumption…
Let f: X -> Y be a separated morphism of schemes of finite type over a finite field of characteristic p, let Lambda be an artinian local Z_p-algebra with finite residue field, let m be the maximal ideal of Lambda, and let L^\bullet be a…
We prove that the roots of a smooth monic polynomial with complex-valued coefficients defined on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb R^m$ admit a parameterization by functions of bounded variation uniformly with respect to the…
We prove a factorization formula for the Taylor series coefficients of a zero of a polynomial as a function of the polynomial's coefficients. This result extends to more general functions which we call "complex-exponent polynomials". To…
An interrelationship is found between the accumulation points of zeros of non-trivial solutions of $f"+Af=0$ and the boundary behavior of the analytic coefficient $A$ in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$. It is…

We consider a spacetime singularity at $t = 0$ arising in a Kasner-type metric that solves the gravitational equations modified by quantum effects of a conformal field theory (CFT). The resulting constraints can be solved efficiently when…
We develop refined Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) and Fritz-John (FJ)-type optimality conditions for nonsmooth, nonconvex mathematical pro\-gra\-mming problems. We pay special attention in the case that the functional constraint belongs to a…
The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…
We establish generalizations of the Nyman-Beurling and B\'aez-Duarte criteria concerning lack of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the semi-plane $\Re(s) >1/p$ for $p\in (1,2]$. We pose and solve a natural extremal problem for Dirichlet…
