For a polynomial $f(t) = 1+f_0t+\cdots +f_{d-1}t^d$ with positive integer coefficients Bell and Skandera ask if real rootedness of f(t) implies that there is a simplicial complex with f-vector $(1,f_0 \ldots,f_{d-1})$. In this paper we…

Let $F$ be an entire function of exponential type represented by the Taylor series \[ F(z) = \sum_{n\ge 0} \omega_n \frac{z^n}{n!} \] with unimodular coefficients $|\omega_n|=1$. We show that either the counting function $n_F(r)$ of zeroes…
In this paper, we present efficient algorithms for solving the Diophantine equation $f(x, y) = m$ for an arbitrary definite binary quadratic form $f$, given the factorization of $m$. While Cornacchia's algorithm to solve $x^2 + dy^2 = m$ is…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An element F from k(x_1,...,x_n) is called a closed rational function if the subfield k(F) is algebraically closed in the field k(x_1,...,x_n). We prove that a rational function…
Let $f(x,y)$ be a complex irreducible formal power series without constant term. One may solve the equation $f(x,y)=0$ by choosing either $x$ or $y$ as independent variable, getting two finite sets of Newton-Puiseux series. In 1967 and…
Several combinatorial identities are presented, involving Stirling functions of the second kind with a complex variable. The identities involve also Stirling numbers of the first kind, binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers.
The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…

Let F(x,y) be a function of two variables, and suppose y = f(x) satisfies F(x,y)=0 in some range. Then dy/dx = -Fx/Fy, where Fx and Fy denote the partial derivatives of F with respect to x and y. It is natural to seek a general expression…
