We study three classes of combinatorial sums involving central binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers, odd harmonic numbers, and even indexed harmonic numbers, respectively. In each case we use summation by parts to derive recursive…
The purpose of this paper is to present an addition formula for so-called $q$-disk polynomials, using some quantum group theory. This result is a $q$-analogue of a result which was proved around 1970 by ${\breve{\text S}}$apiro [S] and…
We look for spectral type differential equations for the generalized Jacobi polynomials found by T.H. Koornwinder in 1984 and for the Sobolev-Laguerre polynomials. We introduce a method which makes use of computeralgebra packages like Maple…
We obtain new explicit formulas for the recurrence coefficients of the q-orthogonal polynomial sequences in a class that extends the q-Askey scheme. Our formulas express the recurrence coefficients in terms of four parameters that determine…
These pages contain a short overview on the state of the art of efficient numerical analysis methods that solve systems of multivariate polynomial equations. We focus on the work of Steve Smale who initiated this research framework, and on…
In this paper we study universal quadratic polynomials which arise as sums of polygonal numbers. Specifically, we determine an asymptotic upper bound (as a function of $m$) on the size of the set $S_m\subset\mathbb{N}$ such that if a sum of…
We define skew Schubert polynomials to be normal form (polynomial) representatives of certain classes in the cohomology of a flag manifold. We show that this definition extends a recent construction of Schubert polynomials due to Bergeron…
Given a set of inequalities determined by homogeneous forms, the following intertwined results are established: (1) the volume of the real semi-algebraic domain determined by these inequalities is explicitly determined; it is shown to be…
For the polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle with respect to the measure from the Szego class we prove that the polynomial entropy integrals can grow. The estimate obtained is sharp.

Let $\mu$ be a non-trivial probability measure on the unit circle $\partial\bbD$, $w$ the density of its absolutely continuous part, $\alpha_n$ its Verblunsky coefficients, and $\Phi_n$ its monic orthogonal polynomials. In this paper we…
In this paper, we study a class of orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence relation with periodic coefficients. We derive explicit formulas for the generating function, the associated continued fraction, the orthogonality…
A comprehensive study is made for the magnetic moments of octet baryons in the method of QCD sum rules. A complete set of QCD sum rules is derived using the external field method and generalized interpolating fields. For each member, three…
This paper proposes seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the spectral numbers of a quasihomogeneous singularity. One of them is a new conjecture on the characteristic polynomial. It is an…
A new spectral method is built resorting to $(0,2)$ Jacobi polynomials. We describe the origin and the properties of these polynomials. This choice of polynomials is motivated by their orthogonality properties with the respect to the weight…
Motivated by a recent conjecture of R. P. Stanley we offer a lower bound for the sum of the coefficients of a Schubert polynomial in terms of $132$-pattern containment.
We present an accurate spectral integral method (SIM) for the analyses of scattering from multiple circular perfect electric conductor (PEC) cylinders. It solves the coupled surface integral equations by using the Fourier series and…
We study the space of orthogonally additive $n$-homogeneous polynomials on $C(K)$. There are two natural norms on this space. First, there is the usual supremum norm of uniform convergence on the closed unit ball. As every orthogonally…
We consider orthogonal polynomials with respect to a linear differential operator $$\mathcal{L}^{(M)}=\sum_{k=0}^{M}\rho_{k}(z)\frac{d^k}{dz^k}, $$ where $\{\rho_k\}_{k=0}^{M}$ are complex polynomials such that $deg[\rho_k]\leq k, 0\leq k…
Binomial coefficients have been used for centuries in a variety of fields and have accumulated numerous definitions. In this paper, we introduce a new way of defining binomial coefficients as repeated sums of ones. A multitude of binomial…
