Fix an odd prime $p$. If $r$ is a positive integer and $f$ a polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, let $P_{p,r}(f)$ be the proportion of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_{p^r})$ that is periodic with respect to $f$. We show that as…

Let $K=\Q(\theta)$ be an algebraic number field with $\theta$ a root of an irreducible quadrinomial $f(x) = x^6+ax^m+bx+c\in\Z[x] $ with $m\in\{2,3,4,5\}$. In the present paper, we give some explicit conditions involving only $a,~b,~c$ and…

We reprove twice, in a simpler but as elementary way, a result by Hor\'ak and Skula (1985) who determined, among all sequences of integers defined by $$u_1=1,\quad u_2=R,\quad u_{n+2}=Pu_{n+1}-Qu_n$$ for some integers $P,Q,R$, those which…

For nonautonomous, nonuniformly elliptic integrals with so-called $(p,q)$-growth conditions, we show a general interpolation property allowing to get basic higher integrability results for H\"older continuous minimizers under improved…

A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if f = g o h = g(h) for nonlinear polynomials g and h. It is intuitively clear that the decomposable polynomials form a small minority among all polynomials over a finite field. The…

Let $f, g, h\in \mathbb{C}\left[x\right]$ be non-constant complex polynomials satisfying $f(x)=g(h(x))$ and let $f$ be lacunary in the sense that it has at most $l$ non-constant terms. Zannier proved that there exists a function $B_1(l)$ on…

We first prove that if $a$ has a prime factor not dividing $b$ then there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that $\binom {an+bn} {an}$ is not divisible by $bn+1$. This confirms a recent conjecture of Z.-W. Sun. Moreover, we…

In this work, we consider rational ordinary differential equations dy/dx = Q(x,y)/P(x,y), with Q(x,y) and P(x,y) coprime polynomials with real coefficients. We give a method to construct equations of this type for which a first integral can…
