A real polynomial $P(X_1,..., X_n)$ sign represents $f: A^n \to \{0,1\}$ if for every $(a_1, ..., a_n) \in A^n$, the sign of $P(a_1,...,a_n)$ equals $(-1)^{f(a_1,...,a_n)}$. Such sign representations are well-studied in computer science and…
For any two n-th order polynomials a(s) and b(s), the Hurwitz stability of their convex combination is necessary and sufficient for the existence of a polynomial c(s) such that c(s)/a(s) and c(s)/b(s) are both strictly positive real.
A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if f = g o h = g(h) for nonlinear polynomials g and h. In order to count the decomposables, one wants to know, under a suitable normalization, the number of equal-degree collisions of…
In this paper we characterize real bivariate polynomials which have a small range over large Cartesian products. We show that for every constant-degree bivariate real polynomial $f$, either $|f(A,B)|=\Omega(n^{4/3})$, for every pair of…
A well-known theorem of Quillen says that if $r(z,\bar{z})$ is a bihomogeneous polynomial on ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ positive on the sphere, then there exists $d$ such that $r(z,\bar{z}){\lVert z \rVert}^{2d}$ is a squared norm. We obtain…
As was detailed by Loewy and London in [Linear and Multilinear Algebra 6 (1978/79), no.~1, 83--90], the cone of polynomials that preserve the nonnegativity of matrices may play an important role in the solution to the nonnegative inverse…
We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…
We give a strongly polynomial time algorithm which determines whether or not a bivariate polynomial is real stable. As a corollary, this implies an algorithm for testing whether a given linear transformation on univariate polynomials…
An important theorem by Timofte states that nonnegativity of real $n$-variate symmetric polynomials of degree $d$ can be decided at test sets given by all points with at most $\lfloor\frac{d}{2}\rfloor$ distinct components. However, if the…
In this paper, we prove optimal local universality for roots of random polynomials with arbitrary coeffcients of polynomial growth. As an application, we derive, for the first time, sharp estimates for the number of real roots of these…
In this paper, using Descartes law of sign, we provide elementary proof of results on the number of real eigenvalues of real matrices of which certain properties on the signs of their principal minors are known. More precisely, we analyze…
The spectral order on $\bR$ induces a partial ordering on the manifold $\calH_{n}$ of monic hyperbolic polynomials of degree $n$. We show that the semigroup $\tilde{\calS}$ generated by differential operators of the form $(1-\la…
The P-Eulerian polynomial counts the linear extensions of a labeled partially ordered set, P, by their number of descents. It is known that the P-Eulerian polynomials are real-rooted for various classes of posets P. The purpose of this…
We show that all knots up to $6$ crossings can be represented by polynomial knots of degree at most $7$, among which except for $5_2, 5_2^*, 6_1, 6_1^*, 6_2, 6_2^*$ and $6_3$ all are in their minimal degree representation. We provide…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic or Maass Hecke cusp form for the full modular group and write $\lambda_f(n)$ for the corresponding Hecke eigenvalues. We are interested in the signs of those eigenvalues. In the holomorphic case, we show that for…
The Ehrhart polynomial of the $d$-th hypersimplex $\Delta(d,n)$ of order $n$ is studied. By computational experiments and a known result for $d=2$, we conjecture that the real part of every roots of the Ehrhart polynomial of $\Delta(d,n)$…
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…
This paper presents new six solutions for sixth degree polynomial equation in general forms basing on new theorems, where the possibility to calculate the six roots of any sixth degree equation nearly simultaneously. The proposed roots for…
In this paper we show that a polynomial equation admits infinitely many prime-tuple solutions assuming only that the equation satisfies suitable local conditions and the polynomial is sufficiently non-degenerate algebraically. Our notion of…
Isolating the real roots of univariate polynomials is a fundamental problem in symbolic computation and it is arguably one of the most important problems in computational mathematics. The problem has a long history decorated with numerous…
