An $s$-sparse polynomial has at most $s$ monomials with nonzero coefficients. The Equivalence Testing problem for sparse polynomials (ETsparse) asks to decide if a given polynomial $f$ is equivalent to (i.e., in the orbit of) some…
We consider multivariable polynomials over a fixed number field, linear in some of the variables. For a system of such polynomials satisfying certain technical conditions we prove the existence of search bounds for simultaneous zeros with…
Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…
We consider the problem of finding a sparse multiple of a polynomial. Given f in F[x] of degree d over a field F, and a desired sparsity t, our goal is to determine if there exists a multiple h in F[x] of f such that h has at most t…
Consider a system F of n polynomial equations in n unknowns, over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We present a fast method to find a point in every irreducible component of the zero set Z of F. Our techniques…
We study polynomials with no zeros on the unit ball in complex Euclidean space with a view toward characterizing when a rational function is bounded on the ball. We give a complete local description of such polynomials in two variables near…
We establish how the coefficients of a sparse polynomial system influence the sum (or the trace) of its zeros. As an application, we develop numerical tests for verifying whether a set of solutions to a sparse system is complete. These…
Simply put, a sparse polynomial is one whose zero coefficients are not explicitly stored. Such objects are ubiquitous in exact computing, and so naturally we would like to have efficient algorithms to handle them. However, with this compact…
To compute solutions of sparse polynomial systems efficiently we have to exploit the structure of their Newton polytopes. While the application of polyhedral methods naturally excludes solutions with zero components, an irreducible…
We study non-linear surjective mappings on subsets of ${\cal M}_n(F)$, which preserve the zeros of some fixed polynomials in noncommuting variables. Keywords: Matrix algebra, Multilinear polynomials, Preservers.
We consider polynomials of a few linear forms and show how exploit this type of sparsity for optimization on some particular domains like the Euclidean sphere or a polytope. Moreover, a simple procedure allows to detect this form of…
We consider real polynomials in finitely many variables. Let the variables consist of finitely many blocks that are allowed to overlap in a certain way. Let the solution set of a finite system of polynomial inequalities be given where each…
Our interest lies in describing the zero behaviour of Gauss hypergeometric polynomials $F(-n,b; c; z)$ where $b$ and $c$ are arbitrary parameters. In general, this problem has not been solved and even when $b$ and $c$ are both real, the…
We study the vanishing sets of slice regular polynomials in several quaternionic variables. We obtain a geometric description of the vanishing sets in two variables, which leads to a new version of the Strong Hilbert Nullstellensatz in the…
Vanishing polynomials are polynomials over a ring which output $0$ for all elements in the ring. In this paper, we study the ideal of vanishing polynomials over specific types of rings, along with the closely related ring of polynomial…
We give the first algorithm that is both query-efficient and time-efficient for testing whether an unknown function $f: \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ is an $s$-sparse GF(2) polynomial versus $\eps$-far from every such polynomial. Our algorithm…
We consider a certain class of multiplicative functions $f: \mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb C$ and study the distribution of zeros of Dirichlet polynomials $F_N(s)= \sum_{n\le N} f(n)n^{-s}$ corresponding to these functions. We prove that the…
We study the probability distribution of the number of common zeros of a system of $m$ random $n$-variate polynomials over a finite commutative ring $R$. We compute the expected number of common zeros of a system of polynomials over $R$.…
It is well known that for every $f\in C^m$ there exists a polynomial $p_n$ such that $p^{(k)}_n\rightarrow f^{(k)}$, $k=0,\ldots,m$. Here we prove such a result for fractional (non-integer) derivatives. Moreover, a numerical method is…
For a real polynomial $f$ we present explicit zero-free angular sectors in the complex plane, symmetric with respect to the real axis, with angles depending only on the degree of $f$, and vertices expressed in terms of the coefficients of…
