Let $\A$ be an algebra and let $f(x_1,...,x_d)$ be a multilinear polynomial in noncommuting indeterminates $x_i$. We consider the problem of describing linear maps $\phi:\A\to \A$ that preserve zeros of $f$. Under certain technical…

We give a conditional proof of the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture of Morton and Silverman in the case of polynomials over number fields, assuming a standard conjecture in arithmetic geometry. Our technique simultaneously yields a dynamical…

Given a polynomial with integral coefficients, one can inquire about the possible residues it can take in its image modulo a prime $p$. The sum over the distinct residues can sometimes be computed independent of the prime $p$; for example,…

In this paper we introduce the concept of polynomial diagrams and its area for special polynomials.We study the properties of polynomial area diagrams. The formula for the area of an arbitrary polynomial diagram.

We explore algebraic properties of noncommutative frames. The concept of noncommutative frames is due to Le Bruyn, who introduced it in connection with noncommutative covers of the Connes-Consani arithmetic site.

We establish new explicit connections between classical (scalar) and matrix Gegenbauer polynomials, which result in new symmetries of the latter and further give access to several properties that have been out of reach before: generating…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field and let $M_2(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $2\times 2$ matrices endowed with an involution of the first kind. We study the image of multilinear $*$-polynomials evaluated on $M_2(\mathbb{F})$. For the transpose…

The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomials associated with a compact set $K$ in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case where $K$ consists of a finite number of…

We continue to develop the tensor-algebra approach to knot polynomials with the goal to present the story in elementary and comprehensible form. The previously reviewed description of Khovanov cohomologies for the gauge group of rank N-1=1…

We give upper bounds on the numbers of various classes of polynomials reducible over the integers and over integers modulo a prime and on the number of matrices in SL(n), GL(n) and Sp(2n) with reducible characteristic polynomials, and on…

We extend Kolchin's results on linear dependence over projective varieties in the constants, to linear dependence over arbitrary complete differential varieties. We show that in this more general setting, the notion of linear dependence…

Let p be a polynomial in one variable. It is shown that the universal C*-algebra of the relation p(x)=0, \|x\| \le C is semiprojective, residually finite-dimensional and has trivial extension group.

Noncommutative pfaffians associated with an orthogonal algebra are some special elements of the universal enveloping algebra. In the paper it is suggested to use some pfaffians as raising operators. The images of these pfaffians in the…

The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…

We find an infinite dimensional free algebra which lives at large N in any SU(N)-invariant action or Hamiltonian theory of bosonic matrices. The natural basis of this algebra is a free-algebraic generalization of Chebyshev polynomials and…

We present a new and simple proof of a theorem due to Kaplansky which unifies theorems of Kolchin and Levitzki on triangularizability of semigroups of matrices. We also give two different extensions of the theorem. As a consequence, we…

Let ${\mathcal N}$ be the Lie algebra of all $n\times n$ strictly block upper triangular matrices over a field ${\mathbb F}$ relative to a given partition. In this paper, we give an explicit description of all derivations of ${\mathcal N}$.

Given a monic linear pencil L in g variables let D_L be its positivity domain, i.e., the set of all g-tuples X of symmetric matrices of all sizes making L(X) positive semidefinite. Because L is a monic linear pencil, D_L is convex with…

In this paper, Ostrowski and Brauer type theorems are derived for the left and right eigenvalues of a quaternionic matrix. Generalizations of Gerschgorin type theorems are discussed for the left and the right eigenvalues of a quaternionic…

We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M, in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always…
