Given $n$ polynomials $p_1, \dots, p_n$ of degree at most $n$ with $\|p_i\|_\infty \le 1$ for $i \in [n]$, we show there exist signs $x_1, \dots, x_n \in \{-1,1\}$ so that \[\Big\|\sum_{i=1}^n x_i p_i\Big\|_\infty < 30\sqrt{n}, \] where…
Some new sufficient conditions for the weighted Chebyshev's inequality for real numbers to hold are provided.
An inverse polynomial has a Chebyshev series expansion 1/\sum(j=0..k)b_j*T_j(x)=\sum'(n=0..oo) a_n*T_n(x) if the polynomial has no roots in [-1,1]. If the inverse polynomial is decomposed into partial fractions, the a_n are linear…
A variant of the well-known Chebyshev inequality for scalar random variables can be formulated in the case where the mean and variance are estimated from samples. In this paper we present a generalization of this result to multiple…
Assume $n\geq 2$. Consider the elementary symmetric polynomials $e_k(y_1,y_2,\ldots, y_n)$ and denote by $E_0,E_1,\ldots,E_{n-1}$ the elementary symmetric polynomials in reverse order \begin{align*}…
We investigate Chebyshev polynomials corresponding to Jacobi weights and determine monotonicity properties of their related Widom factors. This complements work by Bernstein from 1930-31 where the asymptotical behavior of the related…
We prove that there does not exist a non-square quadratic polynomial with integer coefficients and an axis of symmetry which takes square values for N consecutive integers for N=7 or N >= 9. At the opposite, if N <= 6 or N=8 there are…
We consider the problem of maximizing the sum of squares of the leading coefficients of polynomials $P_{i_1}(x),\ldots ,P_{i_m}(x)$ (where $P_j(x)$ is a polynomial of degree $j$) under the restriction that the sup-norm of $\sum_{j=1}^m…
In this note we revisit the classical geometric-arithmetic mean inequality and find a formula for the difference of the arithmetic and the geometric means of given $n\in\mathbb N$ nonnegative numbers $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n$. The formula yields…
We extend the necessity part of Lucas Lehmer iteration for testing Mersenne prime to all base and uniformly for both generalized Mersenne and Wagstaff numbers(the later correspond to negative base). The role of the quadratic iteration $x…
In this paper we present the result of successively applying a Chebyshev polynomial to a continuous random variable. In particular we show that under mild assumptions the limiting distribution will be the same as the weight with respect to…
We prove that the cyclic inequality $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{i=n}\left(\frac{x_i}{x_{i+1}}\right)^k\geq\sum\limits_{i=1}^{i=n}\frac{x_i}{x_{\sigma(i)}}$ holds for $k$ in a specific range dependant on the permutation $\sigma$. We also show that…
Let G be an additive abelian group whose finite subgroups are all cyclic. Let A_1,...,A_n (n>1) be finite subsets of G with cardinality k>0, and let b_1,...,b_n be pairwise distinct elements of G with odd order. We show that for every…
In this paper we evaluate Chebyshev polynomials of the second-kind on a class of symmetric integer matrices, namely on adjacency matrices of simply laced Dynkin and extended Dynkin diagrams. As an application of these results we explicitly…
It is proven that for any system of n points z_1, ..., z_n on the (complex) unit circle, there exists another point z of norm 1, such that $$\sum 1/|z-z_k|^2 \leq n^2/4.$$ Equality holds iff the point system is a rotated copy of the nth…
We give upper and lower bounds for weighted Chebyshev and residual polynomials on subsets of the real line. As an application, we prove a Szeg\H{o}-type theorem in the setting of Parreau--Widom sets.
We study weighted Chebyshev polynomials on compact subsets of the complex plane with respect to a bounded weight function. We establish existence and uniqueness of weighted Chebyshev polynomials and derive weighted analogs of Kolmogorov's…
A class P_{n,m,p}(x) of polynomials is defined. The combinatorial meaning of its coefficients is given. Chebyshev polynomials are the special cases of P_{n,m,p}(x). It is first shown that P_{n,m,p}(x) may be expressed in terms of…
