In this paper, we consider the following $(A, B)$-polynomial $f$ over finite field: $$f(x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_n)=x_0^Ah(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+g(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+P_B(1/x_0),$$ where $h$ is a Deligne polynomial of degree $d$, $g$ is an arbitrary…
The Newton polygon of the implicit equation of a rational plane curve is explicitly determined by the multiplicities of any of its parametrizations. We give an intersection-theoretical proof of this fact based on a refinement of the…
We prove that the relative p-adic monodromy theorem holds over a dense open subset. Moreover, we establish the equivalence of the following two statements: the local constancy of the Newton polygon function associated with a de Rham local…
The classical version of P\'olya's theorem provides a simple method for certifying that a homogeneous polynomial of degree d is strictly copositive, that is, it takes only positive values on the nonnegative real orthant. However, this…
R. Crew conjectured that every overconvergent F-isocrystal over k((t)) (k a field of positive characteristic) is quasi-unipotent (equivalently, potentially semistable), and so has ``generic'' and ``special'' Newton polygons. It is easy to…
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…
For a polynomial $f(x)$ in $(\mathbb{Z}_p\cap \mathbb{Q})[x]$ of degree $d>2$ let $L(f \bmod p;T)$ be the $L$-function of the exponential sum of $f \bmod p$. Let $\mathrm{NP}(f \bmod p)$ denote the Newton polygon of $L(f \bmod p;T)$. Let…
In this paper, we shall precise the asymptotic behaviour of Newton polygons of $L$ functions associated to character sums, coming from some $n$ variable Laurent polynomials. In order to do this, we use the free sum on convex polytopes. This…
We extend the Newton's method and show the extended Newton's method leads to the binomial expansion of Newton's method that the convergences become the quadratic and linearly. In case of the quadratic convergence, we give the convergence…
The functional (de)composition of polynomials is a topic in pure and computer algebra with many applications. The structure of decompositions of (suitably normalized) polynomials f(x) = g(h(x)) in F[x] over a field F is well understood in…
A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if it is the composition f = g(h) of two polynomials g and h whose degree is at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and…
Jakhar shown that for $f(x)=a_nx^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdot+ a_0$ ($a_0\neq 0$) is a polynomial with rational coefficients, if there exists a prime integer $p$ satisfying $\nu_p(a_n)=0$ and $n\nu_p(a_i)\ge (n-i)\nu_p(a_0)> 0$ for every $0\le…
In this paper, we study iterative methods on the coefficients of the rational univariate representation (RUR) of a given algebraic set, called global Newton iteration. We compare two natural approaches to define locally quadratically…
Symmetric Grothendieck polynomials are inhomogeneous versions of Schur polynomials that arise in combinatorial $K$-theory. A polynomial has saturated Newton polytope (SNP) if every lattice point in the polytope is an exponent vector. We…
In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…
The Newton-Raphson (N-R) method is useful to find the roots of a polynomial of degree n. However, this method is limited since it diverges for the case in which polynomials only have complex roots if a real initial condition is taken. In…
Let a planar algebraic curve $C$ be defined over a valuation field by an equation $F(x,y)=0$. Valuations of the coefficients of $F$ define a subdivision of the Newton polygon $\Delta$ of the curve $C$. If a given point $p$ is of…
We investigate Newton's method as a root finder for complex polynomials of arbitrary degree. While polynomial root finding continues to be one of the fundamental tasks of computing, with essential use in all areas of theoretical…
We use the stabilization functors to study the combinatorial aspects of the $F$-polynomial of a representation of any finite-dimensional basic algebra. We characterize the vertices of their Newton polytopes. We give an explicit formula for…
A "Littlewood polynomial" is a polynomial whose coefficients are all 1 or -1. The set of all complex roots of all Littlewood polynomials exhibits many complicated, beautiful and fascinating patterns. Some fractal regions of this set closely…
