We give two determinantal representations for a bivariate polynomial. They may be used to compute the zeros of a system of two of these polynomials via the eigenvalues of a two-parameter eigenvalue problem. The first determinantal…

We prove that the average error term when counting square-free values of polynomials is the quartic root of the main term.

Tropical roots of tropical polynomials have been previously studied and used to localize roots of classical polynomials and eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. We extend the theory of tropical roots from tropical polynomials to tropical…

The Function Field Sieve algorithm is dedicated to computing discrete logarithms in a finite field GF(q^n), where q is small an prime power. The scope of this article is to select good polynomials for this algorithm by defining and…

We study the computational complexity of a diagonalization technique for multivariate homogeneous polynomials, that is, expressing them as sums of powers of independent linear forms. It is based on Harrison's center theory and consists of a…

Linearized polynomials appear in many different contexts, such as rank metric codes, cryptography and linear sets, and the main issue regards the characterization of the number of roots from their coefficients. Results of this type have…

Working over the split octonions over an algebraically closed field, we solve all polynomial equations in which all the coefficients but the constant term are scalar. As a consequence, we calculate the n-th roots of an octonion.

Approximating the roots of a holomorphic function in an input box is a fundamental problem in many domains. Most algorithms in the literature for solving this problem are conditional, i.e., they make some simplifying assumptions, such as,…

The Newton-Raphson (N-R) method is useful to find the roots of a polynomial of degree n. However, this method is limited since it diverges for the case in which polynomials only have complex roots if a real initial condition is taken. In…

We describe a method for calculating the roots of special functions satisfying second order linear ordinary differential equations. It exploits the recent observation that the solutions of a large class of such equations can be represented…

Several root-ratio multipoint methods for finding multiple zeros of univariate functions were recently presented. The characteristic of these methods is that they deal with $m$-th root of ratio of two functions (hence the name root-ratio…

Terao's factorization theorem shows that if an arrangement is free, then its characteristic polynomial factors into the product of linear polynomials over the integer ring. This is not a necessary condition, but there are not so many…

We describe an algorithm to compute the essentially different factorizations of a given image primitive integer-valued polynomial $f(X)=g(X)/d\in\Q[X]$, where $g\in\Z[X]$ and $d\in\N$ is square-free, assuming that the factorization of…

We propose an algorithm for determining the irreducible polynomials over finite fields, based on the use of the companion matrix of polynomials and the generalized Jordan normal form of square matrices.

We give an anecdotal discussion of the problem of searching for polynomials with all roots on the unit circle, whose coefficients are rational numbers subject to certain congruence conditions. We illustrate with an example from a…
