The Newton polytope $P_f$ of a polynomial $f$ is well known to have a strong impact on its zeros, as in the Kouchnirenko-Bernstein theorem on the number of simultaneous zeros of $m$ polynomials with given Newton polytopes. In this article,…

Given a sequence of points in the unit disk, a well known result due to Carleson states that if given any point of the sequence it is possible to interpolate the value one in that point and zero in all the other points of the sequence, with…

In 1956 Marguerite Frank and Paul Wolfe proved that a quadratic function which is bounded below on a polyhedron $P$ attains its infimum on $P$. In this work we search for larger classes of sets $F$ with this Frank-and-Wolfe property. We…

In 2014, Juul, Kurlberg, Madhu and Tucker asked the following: given $K$ a number field and $f$ a rational function with coefficients in $K$, if $f_\mathfrak{p}$ denotes the reduction of $f$ modulo a prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ in the ring…

For functions $f$ in Dirichlet-type spaces we study how to determine constructively optimal polynomials $p_n$ that minimize $\|p f-1\|_\alpha$ among all polynomials $p$ of degree at most $n$. Then we give upper and lower bounds for the rate…

We prove the irreducibility of integer polynomials $f(X)$ whose roots lie inside an Apollonius circle associated to two points on the real axis with integer abscisae $a$ and $b$, with ratio of the distances to these points depending on the…

We consider an equation of multiple variables in which a partial derivative does not vanish at a point. The implicit function theorem provides a local existence and uniqueness of the function for the equation. In this paper, we propose an…

We introduce a weakened version of the Dunford-Pettis property, and give examples of Banach spaces with this property. In particular, we show that every closed subspace of Schreier's space $S$ enjoys it. As an application, we characterize…

We develop a new algorithm for factoring a bivariate polynomial $F\in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ which takes fully advantage of the geometry of the Newton polygon of $F$. Under a non degeneracy hypothesis, the complexity is…

The famous Michael selection theorem deals with the characterisation of paracompact spaces by continuous selections of lower semi-continuous mappings in Banach spaces. In this paper, we will discuss several equivalent forms of this theorem,…

The Kac polynomial $$f_n(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{n} \xi_i x^i$$ with independent coefficients of variance 1 is one of the most studied models of random polynomials. It is well-known that the empirical measure of the roots converges to the uniform…

Let $X\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex closed and semialgebraic set and let $f$ be a polynomial positive on $X$. We prove that there exists an exponent $N\geq 1$, such that for any $\xi\in\mathbb{R}^n$ the function…

It is well known that not every convex multifunction admits an affine selection. One could ask whether there exists at least local affine selection. The answer is positive in the finite-dimensional case. The main part of this note consists…

This paper has two objectives: we first generalize the theory of Abhyankar-Moh to quasi-ordinary polynomials, then we use the notion of approximate roots and that of generalized Newton polygons in order to prove the embedding conjecture for…

Let d be a positive integer. We show a finiteness theorem for semialgebraic RL triviality of a Nash family of Nash functions defined on a Nash manifold, generalising Benedetti-Shiota's finiteness theorem for semialgebraic RL equivalence…

This paper extends the Kadison duality between compact convex sets and function systems to the setting of partial convexity. A partially convex set is a set that is convex in a designated set of convex variables when the others are held…

In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…

In this note we consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube equipped with a biased product probability measure. We prove that if the spectrum of such a function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function…

For a compact set $E \subset \mathbb{C}$ containing more than two points, we study asymptotic behavior of normalized zero counting measures $\{\mu_k \}$ of the derivatives of Faber polynomials associated with $E$. For example if $E$ has…

We study the irreducibility of Wronskian Hermite polynomials labelled by partitions. It is known that these polynomials factor as a power of x times a remainder polynomial. We show that the remainder polynomial is irreducible for the…
