A seminal result of E. Ehrhart states that the number of integer lattice points in the dilation of a rational polytope by a positive integer $k$ is a quasi-polynomial function of $k$ --- that is, a "polynomial" in which the coefficients are…
This paper investigates coefficients of cyclotomic polynomials theoretically and experimentally. We prove the following result. {{\em If $n=p_1\ldots p_k$ where $p_i$ are odd primes and $p_1<p_2<\ldots<p_r<p_1+p_2<p_{r+1}<\ldots<p_t$ with…
The main goal of this paper is to characterize the Hilbert functions of all (artinian) codimension 4 Gorenstein algebras that have at least two independent relations of degree four. This includes all codimension 4 Gorenstein algebras whose…
The Hilbert class polynomial has as roots the j-invariants of elliptic curves whose endomorphism ring is a given imaginary quadratic order. It can be used to compute elliptic curves over finite fields with a prescribed number of points.…
We prove that the Hilbert functions of codimension four graded Gorenstein Artin algebras R/I are unimodal provided I has a minimal generator in degree less than five. It is an open question whether all Gorenstein h-vectors in codimension…
Consider the interval of integers $I_{m,n} = \{m, m+1, m+2,\ldots, m+n-1 \}$. For fixed integers $h,k,m$, and $c$, let $\Phi_{h,k,m}^{(c)}(n)$ denote the number of solutions of the equation $(a_1+\cdots + a_h)- (a_{h+1} + \cdots +…
Let $n>1$ be an integer. The algebras of the title, which we abbreviate as algebras of type $n$, are infinite-dimensional graded Lie algebras $L= \bigoplus_{i=1}^{\infty}L_i$, which are generated by an element of degree $1$ and an element…
Let K be a field. For a given valuation on K[x], we determine the structure of its graded algebra and describe its set of key polynomials, in terms of any given key polynomial of minimal degree. We also characterize valuations not admitting…
The article is devoted to the problem of Hilbert-Schmidt type analytic extensions in Hardy spaces over the infinite-dimensional unitary matrix group endowed with an invariant probability measure. An orthogonal basis of Hilbert-Schmidt…
Let $K$ be an arbitrary field of characteristic zero, $P_n:= K[ x_1, ..., x_n]$ be a polynomial algebra, and $P_{n, x_1}:= K[x_1^{-1}, x_1, ..., x_n]$, for $n\geq 2$. Let $\s' \in {\rm Aut}_K(P_n)$ be given by $$ x_1\mapsto x_1-1, \quad…
We classify the irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on non-reduced algebraic plane curves, and give a formula for the multiplicities of the irreducible components. The irreducible components are indexed by partitions…
Consider a semi-algebraic set A in R^d constructed from the sets which are determined by inequalities p_i(x)>0, p_i(x)\ge 0, or p_i(x)=0 for a given list of polynomials p_1,...,p_m. We prove several statements that fit into the following…
We start with a (q,t)-generalization of a binomial coefficient. It can be viewed as a polynomial in t that depends upon an integer q, with combinatorial interpretations when q is a positive integer, and algebraic interpretations when q is…
We compute an explicit closed formula for the Hilbert polynomial of the Jacobian algebra $M(f)$ of a reduced surface $X:f=0$ in $\mathbb P^3$ in terms of the graded Betti numbers of the algebra $M(f)$. When $X$ has only isolated…
We consider Hecke symmetries on a 3-dimensional vector space with the associated R-symmetric algebra isomorphic to the polynomial algebra $k[x_1,x_2,x_3]$ twisted by an automorphism. The main result states that any such a Hecke symmetry is…
We attach to normalized (non-vanishing) arithmetic functions $g$ and $h$ recursively defined polynomials. Let $P_0^{g,h}(x):=1$. Then \begin{equation} P_n^{g,h}(x) := \frac{x}{h(n)} \sum_{k=1}^{n} g(k) \, P_{n-k}^{g,h}(x). \end{equation}…
This note is devoted to the study of the links between the Hilbert function of a subscheme X of the projective space, and its geometric properties. We will assume that X is arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, which allows us to characterize its…
Given a polynomial $f(x_1,x_2,\ldots, x_t)$ in $t$ variables with integer coefficients and a positive integer $n$, let $\alpha(n)$ be the number of integers $0\leq a<n$ such that the polynomial congruence $f(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_t)\equiv a\…
Let $FI(X,K)$ be the finitary incidence algebra of a poset $X$ over a field $K$. In this short note we establish when $FI(X,K)$ satisfies a polynomial identity and when its group of units $\mathcal{U}(FI(X,K))$ satisfies a group identity.…
Algebraic and analytic aspects of self-adjoint operators of order four or more with polynomial coefficients are investigated. As a consequence, a systematic way of constructing such operators is given. The procedure is applied to obtain…
