A hypergeometric type equation satisfying certain conditions defines either a finite or an infinite system of orthogonal polynomials. We present in a unified and explicit way all these systems of orthogonal polynomials, the associated…

In the recent years, several polynomial algorithms of a dynamical nature have been proposed to address the graph isomorphism problem. In this paper we propose a generalization of an approach exposed in cond-mat/0209112 and find that this…

We deploy numerical semidefinite programming and conversion to exact rational inequalities to certify that for a positive semidefinite input polynomial or rational function, any representation as a fraction of sums-of-squares of polynomials…

We present a mathematical model: dynamical systems over finite sets (DSF), and we show that Boolean and discrete genetic models are special cases of DFS. In this paper, we prove that a function defined over finite sets with different number…

We provide polynomial completeness results for finite algebras in congruence permutable varieties. In 2001, Idziak and S{\l}omczy{\'n}ska introduced the completeness concept of being \emph{polynomially rich}: a finite algebra is…

We prove that any finite-degree polynomial functor is topologically Noetherian. This theorem is motivated by the recent resolution of Stillman's conjecture and a recent Noetherianity proof for the space of cubics. Via work by…

We study the degree of irreducible morphisms in any Auslander-Reiten component of a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We give a characterization for an irreducible morphism to have finite left (or right) degree.…

An algorithm for irreducible decomposition of representations of finite groups over fields of characteristic zero is described. The algorithm uses the fact that the decomposition induces a partition of the invariant inner product into a…

Finite decomposition complexity and asymptotic dimension growth are two generalizations of M. Gromov's asymptotic dimension which can be used to prove property A for large classes of finitely generated groups of infinite asymptotic…

A field $k$ is called large if every irreducible $k$-curve with a $k$-rational smooth point has infinitely many $k$-points. Let $k$ be a perfect large field and let $f \in k[x]$. Consider the evaluation map $f_k: k \to k$. Assume that $f_k$…

We characterize all linear operators on finite or infinite-dimensional spaces of univariate real polynomials preserving the sets of elliptic, positive, and non-negative polynomials, respectively. This is done by means of Fischer-Fock…

Given a multi-variable polynomial, there is an associated divided symmetrization (in particular turning it into a symmetric function). Postinkov has found the volume of a permutohedron as a divided symmetrization (DS) of the power of a…

We define the parametric closure problem, in which the input is a partially ordered set whose elements have linearly varying weights and the goal is to compute the sequence of minimum-weight lower sets of the partial order as the weights…

We study the preorder $\le_p$ on the family of subsets of an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ defined by letting $A\le_pB $ if there exists a polynomial $P$ such that $A=P^{-1}(B)$.

Vladimir Shpilrain and Jie-Tai Yu have asked for an effective algorithm to decide if two elements of C[x,y] are related by an automorphism of C[x,y]. We describe here an efficient algorithm that decides this question and finds the…

Starting from the expression for the superdeterminant of $ (xI-M)$, where $M$ is an arbitrary supermatrix , we propose a definition for the corresponding characteristic polynomial and we prove that each supermatrix satisfies its…

We give some connections between various functions defined on finitely presented groups (isoperimetric, isodiametric, Todd-Coxeter radius, filling length functions, etc.), and we study the relation between those functions and the…

We show how geometric methods from the general theory of fractal dimensions and iterated function systems can be deployed to study symbolic dynamics in the zero entropy regime. More precisely, we establish a dimensional characterization of…

Abduction is a fundamental and important form of non-monotonic reasoning. Given a knowledge base explaining how the world behaves it aims at finding an explanation for some observed manifestation. In this paper we focus on propositional…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero. We deal with the algebraic closure of the field of fractions of the ring of formal power series $K[[x_1,\ldots,x_r]]$, $r\geq 2$. More precisely, we view the latter as a subfield of an iterated…
