Applying techniques similar to Combinatorial Nullstellensatz we prove a lower estimate of $|f(A,B)|$ for finite subsets $A$, $B$ of a field, and polynomial $f(x,y)$ of the form $f(x,y)=g(x)+yh(x)$, where degree of $g$ is greater then degree…
In this note we give an extended version of Combinatorial Nullstellensatz, with weaker assumption on nonvanishing monomial. We also present an application of our result in a situation where the original theorem does not seem to work.
In this expository note we show how combinatorial Nullstellensatz by N. Alon naturally appears in solutions of elementary problems. Simple ideas gradually and naturally appear in such solutions, thus bringing a reader to generalizations.…
A Nullstellensatz is a theorem providing information on polynomials that vanish on a certain set: David Hilbert's Nullstellensatz (1893) is a cornerstone of algebraic geometry, and Noga Alon's Combinatorial Nullstellensatz (1999) is a…
We introduce a new form of the polynomial method based on what we call "shift operators," which we use to give efficient and intuitive new proofs of results previously shown using a wide range of polynomial methods, including Alon's…
We interpret the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz of Noga Alon as a multidimensional residue formula, describe some consequences of this interpretation and related open problems.
In this paper, using some conditions that arise naturally in Alon's combinatorial Nullstellensatz as well as its various extensions and generalizations, we characterize Gr\"{o}bner bases consisting of monic polynomials, which helps us to…
We discuss here some computational aspects of the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz argument. Our main result shows that the order of magnitude of the symmetry group associated with permutations of the variables in algebraic constraints,…
We revisit and further explore the celebrated Combinatorial Nullstellens\"atze of N. Alon in several different directions.
In this note we give a short, direct proof of the well known Combinatorial Nullstellensatz.
It is shown that by eliminating duality theory of vector spaces from a recent proof of Kouba (O. Kouba, A duality based proof of the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz. Electron. J. Combin. 16 (2009), #N9) one obtains a direct proof of the…
We prove a general version of Bezout's form of the Nullstellensatz for arbitrary fields. The corresponding sufficient and necessary condition only involves the local existence of multi-valued roots for each of the polynomials belonging to…
We survey a few strengthenings and generalizations of the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz of Alon and the Schwartz-Zippel Lemma. These lemmas guarantee the existence of (a certain number of) nonzeros of a multivariate polynomial when the…
We prove a Nullstellensatz for the ring of polynomial functions in n non-commuting variables over Hamilton's ring of real quaternions. We also characterize the generalized polynomial identities in n variables which hold over the…
The (weak) Nullstellensatz over finite fields says that if $P_1,\ldots,P_m$ are $n$-variate degree-$d$ polynomials with no common zero over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ then there are polynomials $R_1,\ldots,R_m$ such that…
Alon's combinatorial Nullstellensatz (Theorem 1.1 from \cite{Alon1}) is one of the most powerful algebraic tools in combinatorics, with a diverse array of applications. Let $\F$ be a field, $S_1,S_2,..., S_n$ be finite nonempty subsets of…
We study multivariate polynomials over `structured' grids. We begin by proposing an interpretation as to what it means for a finite subset of a field to be structured; we do so by means of a numerical parameter, the nullity. We then extend…
Using polynomial equations to model combinatorial problems has been a popular tool both in computational combinatorics as well as an approach to proving new theorems. In this paper, we look at several combinatorics problems modeled by…
In this expository paper, we present simple proofs of the Classical, Real, Projective and Combinatorial Nullstellens\"atze. Several applications are also presented such as a classical theorem of Stickelberger for solutions of polynomial…
In this paper, we present the Nullstellensatz in case of the coordinate rings of a nonempty subset of Kn where K is a finite field Fq. Some applications of the Nullstellensatz are also discussed.
