Let $l$ be a finite field of cardinality $q$ and let $n$ be in $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$. Let $f_1,\ldots,f_n \in l[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ not all constant and consider the evaluation map $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) \colon l^n \to l^n$. Set…

We provide upper bounds on the total number of irreducible factors, and in particular irreducibility criteria for some classes of bivariate polynomials $f(x,y)$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$. Our results rely on information on the…

We analyze the behavior of the Euclidean algorithm applied to pairs (g,f) of univariate nonconstant polynomials over a finite field F_q of q elements when the highest-degree polynomial g is fixed. Considering all the elements f of fixed…
It is well known that, using fast algorithms for polynomial multiplication and division, evaluation of a polynomial $F \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ of degree $n$ at $n$ complex-valued points can be done with $\tilde{O}(n)$ exact field operations in…

For various Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the unit disk, we characterize when a function $f$ has optimal polynomial approximants given by truncations of a single power series. We also introduce a generalized notion of optimal…
Nisan and Szegedy (CC 1994) showed that any Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}$ that depends on all its input variables, when represented as a real-valued multivariate polynomial $P(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$, has degree at least $\log…
We give a number of approximation metatheorems for monotone maximization problems expressible in the first-order logic, in substantially more general settings than the previously known. We obtain * constant-factor approximation algorithm in…
We prove various theorems on approximation using polynomials with integer coefficients in the Bernstein basis of any given order. In the extreme, we draw the coefficients from $\{ \pm 1\}$ only. A basic case of our results states that for…
Let $f_1,\dots,f_k\in\mathbb{R}[X]$ be polynomials of degree at most $d$ with $f_1(0)=\dots=f_k(0)=0$. We show that there is an integer $n<x$ such that the fractional parts $\|f_i(n)\|\ll x^{c/k}$ for all $1\le i\le k$ and for some constant…
Consider the gradient map associated to any non-constant homogeneous polynomial $f\in \C[x_0,...,x_n]$ of degree $d$, defined by \[\phi_f=grad(f): D(f)\to \CP^n, (x_0:...:x_n)\to (f_0(x):...:f_n(x))\] where $D(f)=\{x\in \CP^n; f(x)\neq 0\}$…
Semidefinite programming (SDP) provides a fundamental framework for studying properties of sum-of-squares (sos) representations of nonnegative polynomials. In this paper we study the quartic forms GF = (|x|^4 + F(x))/2 associated with…

In this work, our aim is to obtain conditions to assure polynomial approximation in Hilbert spaces $L^{2}(\mu)$, with $\mu$ a compactly supported measure in the complex plane, in terms of properties of the associated moment matrix to the…
A bilevel program is an optimization problem whose constraints involve another optimization problem. This paper studies bilevel polynomial programs (BPPs), i.e., all the functions are polynomials. We reformulate BPPs equivalently as…
We consider the inverse optimization problem associated with the polynomial program f^*=\min \{f(x): x\in K\}$ and a given current feasible solution $y\in K$. We provide a systematic numerical scheme to compute an inverse optimal solution.…
Most results on the value sets $V_f$ of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ relate the cardinality $|V_f|$ to the degree of $f$. In particular, the structure of the spectrum of the class of polynomials of a fixed degree $d$ is rather well…
We introduce a new non-degeneracy condition at infinity for a real or a mixed polynomial mapping $F$ which allows us to approximate its bifurcation locus in terms of certain Newton polyhedra. We derive a sufficiency result for the Jacobian…
