Let P be a convex polytope containing the origin, whose dual is a lattice polytope. Hibi's Palindromic Theorem tells us that if P is also a lattice polytope then the Ehrhart $\delta$-vector of P is palindromic. Perhaps less well-known is…
Let $R$ be a standard graded polynomial ring that is finitely generated over a field of characteristic $0$, let $\mathfrak{m}$ be the homogeneous maximal ideal of $R$, and let $I$ be a homogeneous prime ideal of $R$. Dao and Monta\~{n}o…
For a hypergraph $\mathcal H$, we consider the edge-induced and vertex-induced subhypergraph polynomials and study their relation. We use this relation to prove that both polynomials are reconstructible, and to prove a theorem relating the…
We introduce a new problem on the elementary symmetric polynomials $\sigma_k$, stemming from the constraint equations of some modified gravity theory. For which coefficients is a linear combination of $\sigma_k$ $1/p$-concave, with $0 \leq…
The local $h^*$-polynomial is a natural invariant of a lattice polytope appearing in Ehrhart theory and Hodge theory. In this work, we study the question posed in [GKZ94] concerning the classification of lattice simplices with vanishing…
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…
A polynomial is real-rooted if all of its roots are real. This note gives a simple proof of the Hermite-Sylvester theorem that a polynomial $f(x) \in {\mathbf R}[x]$ is real-rooted if and only if an associated quadratic form is positive…
As shown by McMullen in 1983, the coefficients of the Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope can be written as a weighted sum of facial volumes. The weights in such a local formula depend only on the outer normal cones of faces, but are…
A set of polynomials in noncommuting variables is called locally linearly dependent if their evaluations at tuples of matrices are always linearly dependent. By a theorem of Camino, Helton, Skelton and Ye, a finite locally linearly…
Ordinary polytopes were introduced by Bisztriczky as a (nonsimplicial) generalization of cyclic polytopes. We show that the colex order of facets of the ordinary polytope is a shelling order. This shelling shares many nice properties with…
Graph polytopes arising from vertex-weighted graphs were first introduced by B\'ona, Ju, and Yoshida. We prove a conjecture stating that for any simple connected graph, the numerator polynomial of the Ehrhart series of its graph polytope is…
We show that for each fixed non-constant complex polynomial $P$ of the plane there exists a homeomorphism $h$ such that $P\circ h$ is a Lipschitz quotient mapping. This corrects errors in the construction given earlier by Johnson et. al.…
The $\gamma$-vector is an important enumerative invariant of a flag simplicial homology sphere. It has been conjectured by Gal that this vector is nonnegative for every such sphere $\Delta$ and by Reiner, Postnikov and Williams that it…
Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a polynomial with real coefficients. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…
We present a short proof, based on local character expansions, of the celebrated theorem of Harish-Chandra about local integrability of complex characters of $p$-adic reductive groups. The proof gives an algebraic incarnation of the local…
In this paper, we give a complete real-variable theory of local variable Hardy spaces. First, we present various real-variable characterizations in terms of several local maximal functions. Next, the new atomic and the finite atomic…
For a finite subset $I$ of positive integers, the descent polynomial $\mathcal{D}(I;n)$ counts the number of permutations in $S_n$ that have descent set $I$. We generalize descent polynomials by considering permutations with a specific…
This paper gives an elementary proof of an improved version of the algebraic Local B\'ezout Theorem (given by the authors in JSC 45 (2010) 975--985). Here we remove some ad hoc hypotheses and obtain an optimal algebraic version of the…
We study sets of univariate hyperbolic polynomials that share the same first few coefficients and show that they have a natural combinatorial description akin to that of polytopes. We define a stratification of such sets in terms of root…
The aim of this paper is to study in details the regular holonomic $D-$module introduced in \cite{[B.19]} whose local solutions outside the polar hyper-surface $\{\Delta(\sigma).\sigma_k = 0 \}$ are given by the local system generated by…
