We show how to construct sparse polynomial systems that have non-trivial lower bounds on their numbers of real solutions. These are unmixed systems associated to certain polytopes. For the order polytope of a poset P this lower bound is the…
The work proves that, for three-dimensional upper triangular groups over a field of odd characteristic with an abelian unipotent subgroup, the ring of invariants is polynomial if and only if the unipotent subgroup is generated by…
We reexamine different examples of reduction chains $\mathfrak{g} \supset \mathfrak{g}'$ of Lie algebras in order to show how the polynomials determining the commutant with respect to the subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}'$ leads to polynomial…
It is shown that monic orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are the characteristic polynomials of certain five-diagonal matrices depending on the Schur parameters. This result is achieved through the study of orthogonal Laurent…
Given n polynomials in n variables of respective degrees d_1,...,d_n, and a set of monomials of cardinality d_1...d_n, we give an explicit subresultant-based polynomial expression in the coefficients of the input polynomials whose…
We study sets of univariate hyperbolic polynomials that share the same first few coefficients and show that they have a natural combinatorial description akin to that of polytopes. We define a stratification of such sets in terms of root…
Lascoux and Sch\"utzenberger introduced Schubert and Grothendieck polynomials to study the cohomology and K-theory of the complete flag variety. We present explicit combinatorial rules for expressing Grothendieck polynomials in the basis of…
This paper constructs polynomial bases that capture the structure of the de Rham complex with boundary conditions in disks and cylinders (both periodic and finite) in a way that respects rotational symmetry. The starting point is explicit…
We obtain results describing the behavior of the action of rotation generators on polynomials over a commutative ring. We also explore harmonic polynomials in a purely algebraic setting.
We construct linear operators factorizing the three bases of symmetric polynomials: monomial symmetric functions m(x), elementary symmetric polynomials E(x), and Schur functions s(x), into products of univariate polynomials.
Schubert polynomials form a basis of all polynomials and appear in the study of cohomology rings of flag manifolds. The vanishing problem for Schubert polynomials asks if a coefficient of a Schubert polynomial is zero. We give a tableau…
A hierarchy of matrix-valued polynomials which generalize the Jacobi polynomials is found. Defined by a Rodrigues formula, they are also products of a sequence of differential operators. Each class of polynomials is complete, satisfies a…
Highest weight categories are described in terms of standard objects and recollements of abelian categories, working over an arbitrary commutative base ring. Then the highest weight structure for categories of strict polynomial functors is…
The notion of block divisibility naturally leads one to introduce unitary cyclotomic polynomials. We formulate some basic properties of unitary cyclotomic polynomials and study how they are connected with cyclotomic, inclusion-exclusion and…
These are the notes of my lectures at the 1996 European Congress of Mathematicians. {} Polynomials appear in mathematics frequently, and we all know from experience that low degree polynomials are easier to deal with than high degree ones.…
We compute the Groebner basis of a system of polynomial equations related to the Jacobian conjecture, and describe completely the solution set.
Descent polynomials and peak polynomials, which enumerate permutations with given descent and peak sets respectively, have recently received considerable attention. We give several formulas for $q$-analogs of these polynomials which refine…
Polynomial algebra offers a standard approach to handle several problems in geometric modeling. A key tool is the discriminant of a univariate polynomial, or of a well-constrained system of polynomial equations, which expresses the…
We prove the existence of signed combinatorial interpretations for several large families of structure constants. These families include standard bases of symmetric and quasisymmetric polynomials, as well as various bases in Schubert…
Let T(x) in k[x] be a monic non-constant polynomial and write R=k[x] / (T) the quotient ring. Consider two bivariate polynomials a(x, y), b(x, y) in R[y]. In a first part, T = p^e is assumed to be the power of an irreducible polynomial p. A…
