This paper investigates the number of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ whose roots are all real and positive. We establish an asymptotic formula for the case of fixed trace by estimating the number of integer sequences satisfying…

We investigate the sets of uniform limits $A(\bar{B}_n)$, $A(\bar{D}^I)$ of polynomials on the closed unit ball $\bar{B}_n$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ and on the cartesian product $\bar{D}^I$ where $I$ is an arbitrary set and $\bar{D}$ is the closed…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables with values in $\C$. Denote by $\mu$ the probability distribution of $X_1$. Consider a random polynomial $P_n(z)=(z-X_1)...(z-X_n)$. We prove a conjecture of Pemantle…

Of the $(2H+1)^n$ monic integer polynomials $f(x)=x^n+a_1 x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_n$ with $\max\{|a_1|,\ldots,|a_n|\}\leq H$, how many have associated Galois group that is not the full symmetric group $S_n$? There are clearly $\gg H^{n-1}$ such…

A conjecture of Kac states that the polynomial counting the number of absolutely indecomposable representations of a quiver over a finite field with given dimension vector has positive coefficients and furthermore that its constant term is…

On a probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal F, \mathbb P)$ we consider two independent sequences $(a_k)_{k \geq 1}$ and $(b_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of i.i.d. random variables that are centered with unit variance and which admit a moment strictly…

A complex harmonic polynomial is the sum of a complex polynomial and a conjugated complex polynomial, of degrees $n$ and $m$ respectively. Li and Wei (2009) presented a formula for the expected number of zeros of a random harmonic…

This paper investigates asymptotic distribution of complex zeros of random polynomials $P_n(z):=\sum_{k=0}^{n}b(k)\xi_k z^k$, as $n\to\infty$, where $b$ is a regularly varying function at infinity with index $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$ and…

The notion of $c$-differential uniformity has recently received a lot of attention since its proposal~\cite{Ellingsen}, and recently a characterization of perfect $c$-nonlinear functions in terms of difference sets in some quasigroups was…

We derive a useful result about the zeros of the $k$-polar polynomials on the unit circle; in particular we obtain a ring shaped region containing all the zeros of these polynomials. Some examples are presented.

We investigate the probability that a random polynomial with independent, mean-zero and finite variance coefficients has no real zeros. Specifically, we consider a random polynomial of degree $2n$ with coefficients given by an i.i.d.…

If $f$ is a polynomial with all of its roots on the real line, then the roots of the derivative $f'$ are more evenly spaced than the roots of $f$. The same holds for a real entire function of order~1 with all its zeros on a line. In…

For a pair of positive integers (k,r) with r>1 such that k+1 and r-1 are relatively prime, we describe the space of symmetric polynomials in variables x_1,...,x_n which vanish at all diagonals of codimension k of the form…

We show that the counts of low degree irreducible factors of a random polynomial $f$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with independent but non-uniform coefficients behave like that of a uniform random polynomial, exhibiting a form of universality for…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…

Let $f(x)$ be a monic polynomial in $\dZ[x]$ with no rational roots but with roots in $\dQ_p$ for all $p$, or equivalently, with roots mod $n$ for all $n$. It is known that $f(x)$ cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more…

Let $f(Z)=Z^n-a_{1}Z^{n-1}+\cdots+(-1)^{n-1}a_{n-1}Z+(-1)^na_n$ be a monic polynomial with coefficients in a ring~$R$ with identity, not necessarily commutative. We study the ideal $I_f$ of $R[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ generated by…

Let $f(x_1,...,x_k)$ be a polynomial over a field $K$. This paper considers such questions as the enumeration of the number of nonzero coefficients of $f$ or of the number of coefficients equal to $\alpha\in K^*$. For instance, if $K=\ff_q$…

Given a family $(q_k)_k$ of polynomials, we call an open set $U$ root-sparse if the number of zeros of $q_k$ is locally uniformly bounded on $U$. We study the interplay between the individual zeros of the polynomials $q_k$ and those of the…
