In this article, we prove some factorization results for several classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield several classes of irreducible polynomials. Such classes of polynomials are devised by imposing…

We consider random orthonormal polynomials $$ P_{n}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^{n}\xi_{i}p_{i}(x), $$ where $\xi_{0}$, . . . , $\xi_{n}$ are independent random variables with zero mean, unit variance and uniformly bounded $(2+\ep_0)$-moments, and…

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 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…

Any multilinear non-central polynomial $p$ (in several noncommuting variables) takes on values of degree $n$ in the matrix algebra $M_n(F)$ over an infinite field $F$. The polynomial $p$ is called {\it $\nu$-central} for $M_n(F)$ if $p^\nu$…

In this paper we relate the location of the complex zeros of the reliability polynomial to parameters at which a certain family of rational functions derived from the reliability polynomial exhibits chaotic behaviour. We use this connection…

Let $K$ be a global field and $n > 1$ an integer. We show $n$ is composite if and only if there is an irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in K[x]$ of degree $n$ which is reducible $q$-adically for all the primes $q$ of $K$.

We study the question up to which power an irreducible integer-valued polynomial that is not absolutely irreducible can factor uniquely. For example, for integer-valued polynomials over principal ideal domains with square-free denominator,…

Let $R$ be a $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra and $d$ be a locally nilpotent derivation on $R$. We will show that the Jacobson radical of a differential polynomial ring $R[x;d]$ equals $I[x;d]$ where $I$ is a nil ideal of $R$. This answers a question…

The classification of the nilpotent Jacobians with some structure has been an object of study because of its relationship with the Jacobian Conjecture. In this paper we classify the polynomial maps in dimension $n$ of the form $H = (u(x,y),…

Orthogonal polynomials for the weight $x^{\nu} \exp(-x - t/x),\ x, t > 0, \nu \in \mathbb{R}$ are investigated. Differential-difference equations, recurrence relations, explicit representations, generating functions and Rodrigues-type…

We show that for Gaussian random SU(2)polynomials of a large degree $N$ the probability that there are no zeros in the disk of radius $r$ is less than $e^{-c_{1,r} N^2}$, and is also greater than $e^{-c_{2,r} N^2}$. Enroute to this result,…

For every system $\{ p_n(z) \}_{n=0}^\infty$ of OPRL or OPUC, we construct Sobolev orthogonal polynomials $y_n(z)$, with explicit integral representations involving $p_n$. Two concrete families of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials (depending…

We investigate $k$-superirreducible polynomials, by which we mean irreducible polynomials that remain irreducible under any polynomial substitution of positive degree at most $k$. Let $\mathbb F$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. We…

We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…
