In this paper we prove that given two sets $E_1,E_2 \subset \mathbb{Z}$ of positive density, there exists $k \geq 1$ which is bounded by a number depending only on the densities of $E_1$ and $E_2$ such that $k\mathbb{Z} \subset…
We prove that the Fourier coefficients of a certain general eta product considered by K. Saito are nonnegative. The proof is elementary and depends on a multidimensional theta function identity. The z=1 case is an identity for the…
S\'ark\"ozy proved that dense sets of integers contain two elements differing by a $k$th power. The bounds in quantitative versions of this theorem are rather weak compared to what is expected. We prove a version of S\'ark\"ozy's theorem…
A conjecture of Khang Tran [6] claims that for an arbitrary pair of polynomials $A(z)$ and $B(z)$, every zero of every polynomial in the sequence $\{P_n(z)\}_{n=1}^\infty$ satisfying the three-term recurrence relation of length $k$…
This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…
Herzog and Sch\"onheim conjectured that any nontrivial partition of a group into cosets must contain two cosets with the same index.
The Collatz conjecture is explored using polynomials based on a binary numeral system. It is shown that the degree of the polynomials, on average, decreases after a finite number of steps of the Collatz operation, which provides a weak…
Let $N$ be a positive integer and let $S_N$ be the set of polynomials with integer coefficients, degree less than $N$, and minimal positive integral over $[0,1]$. D. Bazzanella initiated the study of $S_N$ because of its relation to the…
Let $P$ be a bounded convex subset of $\mathbb R^n$ of positive volume. Denote the smallest degree of a polynomial $p(X_1,\dots,X_n)$ vanishing on $P\cap\mathbb Z^n$ by $r_P$ and denote the smallest number $u\geq0$ such that every function…
Consider a random system $\mathfrak{f}_1(x)=0,\ldots,\mathfrak{f}_n(x)=0$ of $n$ random real polynomials in $n$ variables, where each $\mathfrak{f}_k$ has a prescribed set of exponent vectors in a set $A_k\subseteq \mathbb{Z}^n$ of size…
The multiple zeta values (MZV) are a set of real numbers with a beautiful structure as an algebra over the rational numbers. They are related to maybe the most important conjecture on mathematics today, the Riemann hypothesis. In this paper…
We develop an effective version of Kronecker's Theorem on the splitting of polynomials, based on asymptotic arguments proposed by the Chudnovsky brothers, coming from Hermite-Pad\'e approximation. In conjunction with Honda's proof of the…
The Index Conjecture in zero-sum theory states that when $n$ is coprime to $6$ and $k$ equals $4$, every minimal zero-sum sequence of length $k$ modulo $n$ has index $1$. While other values of $(k,n)$ have been studied thoroughly in the…
We show that if $A$ is a finite set of non-negative integers then the number of zeros of the function \[ f_A(\theta) = \sum_{a \in A} \cos(a\theta), \] in $[0,2\pi]$, is at least $(\log \log \log |A|)^{1/2-\varepsilon}$. This gives the…
Based on Casas-Alvero conjecture \textit{[J. Algebra, 2001]} we formulate the following conjecture.\\ \textbf{C*-algebraic Casas-Alvero Conjecture : Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a commutative C*-algebra, $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $P(z) =…
For a polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb Z[x]$ without non-trivial linear relations among roots, we propose a conjecture on the distribution of the least root $r_p$ ($r_p\in\mathbb Z,\,0\le r_p<p)$ of $f(x)\equiv0\bmod p$ where $p$ runs over the…
Assuming the existence of Siegel zeros, we prove that there exists an increasing sequence of positive integers for which Chowla's Conjecture on $k$-point correlations of the Liouville function holds. This extends work of Germ\'an and…
Recently GM Sofi & SA Shabir [arXive: 1903.01850v2 [math.GM] 6 Mar 2019] made an attempt to prove the Sendov's conjecture. But unfortunately the proof is not correct. In this note, we discuss the fallacy in the proof.
The polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem implies that, for any $\delta \in (0,1)$, any family $\{P_1,\ldots, P_m\} \subset \mathbb{Z}[y]$ of nonconstant polynomials with constant term zero, and any sufficiently large $N$, every subset of…
Let $D_\alpha P(z)=nP(z)+(\alpha-z)P^{\prime}(z)$ denote the polar derivative of a polynomial $P(z)$ of degree $n$ with respect to a point $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}.$ In this paper, we present a correct proof, independent of Laguerre's theorem,…
