Consider an algebraic function like $F(x) = \sqrt{x^3 - 1}$. If $p \in \mathbb{Q}$ is a rational number, how many iterates of $p$ under $F$ can also be rational? The dynamics of algebraic functions may be formalized in the language of…
Consider a random polynomial $$ G(z):=\xi_0+\xi_1z+\dots+\xi_nz^n,\quad z\in\mathbb{C}, $$ where $\xi_0,\xi_1,\dots,\xi_{n}$ are independent real-valued random variables with probability density functions $f_0,\dots,f_n$. We give an…
Let $P(z)=\sum_{n=0}^Na_nz^n$ be a Littlewood polynomial of degree $N$, meaning that $a_n\in\{\pm 1\}$. We say that $P$ is reciprocal if $P(z)=z^NP(1/z)$. Borwein, Erd\'elyi and Littmann posed the question of determining the minimum number…
A new recurrence relation for exceptional orthogonal polynomials is proposed, which holds for type 1, 2 and 3. As concrete examples, the recurrence relations are given for Xj-Hermite, Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials in j = 1,2 case.
A weakly distance-regular digraph is $P$-polynomial if its attached scheme is $P$-polynomial. In this paper, we characterize all $P$-polynomial weakly distance-regular digraphs.
We introduce polynomial sets of $(p,q)$-Appell type and give some of their characterizations. The algebraic properties of the set of all polynomial sequences of $(p,q)$-Appell type are studied. Next, we give a recurrence relation and a…
We consider polynomials that are defined as Wronskians of certain sets of Hermite polynomials. Our main result is a recurrence relation for these polynomials in terms of those of one or two degrees smaller, which generalizes the well-known…
The nonlinear integral equation P(x)=\int_alpha^beta dy w(y) P(y) P(x+y) is investigated. It is shown that for a given function w(x) the equation admits an infinite set of polynomial solutions P(x). For polynomial solutions, this nonlinear…
We show that in characteristic zero all irreducible symmetrically braided Hopf algebras are of PBW type. Consequently, we obtain conditions for a braided Hopf algebra to be of PBW type as module over a braided Hopf subalgebra containing the…
Let $S$ be a rational fraction and let $f$ be a polynomial over a finite field. Consider the transform $T(f)=\operatorname{numerator}(f(S))$. In certain cases, the polynomials $f$, $T(f)$, $T(T(f))\dots$ are all irreducible. For instance,…
The main object of this paper is to investigate a new class of the generalized Hurwitz type poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials from which we derive some algorithms for evaluating the Hurwitz type poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials.…
In this paper, we study relations among several types of Eulerian polynomials from a combinatorial viewpoint. We establish an identity between the restricted Eulerian polynomials of types $A$ and $B$. As an application, we present a…
We introduce a basis of rational polynomial-like functions $P_0,\ldots,P_{n-1}$ for the free module of functions $Z/nZ\to Z/mZ$. We then characterize the subfamily of congruence preserving functions as the set of linear combinations of the…
A polynomial $p(x,y)$ on a region $S$ in the plane is called a packing polynomial if the restriction of $p(x,y)$ to $S\cap \mathbb{Z}^2$ yields a bijection to $\mathbb{N}$. In this paper, we determine all quadratic packing polynomials on…
In this article, we give two different sufficient conditions for the irreducibility of a polynomial of more than one variable, over the field of complex numbers, that can be written as a sum of two polynomials which depend on mutually…
Let $G$ be a special $p$-group. If $G$ is of rank two, or $G$ is of maximum rank with $|G^p|\leq p$, then we describe the complex irreducible projective representations of $G$.
A subset of Q^n is called semilinear (or piecewise linear) if it is Boolean combination of linear half-spaces. We study the computational complexity of the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) over the rationals when all the constraints…
Every classical orthogonal polynomial system $p_n(x)$ satisfies a three-term recurrence relation of the type \[ p_{n+1}(x)=(A_nx+B_n)p_n(x)-C_np_{n-1}(x)~ (n=0,1,2,\ldots, p_{-1}\equiv 0), \] with $C_nA_nA_{n-1}>0$. Moreover, Favard's…
We study a class of inverse monoids of the form M = Inv< X | w=1 >, where the single relator w has a combinatorial property that we call sparse. For a sparse word w, we prove that the word problem for M is decidable. We also show that the…
We prove combinatorial rigidity of infinitely renormalizable unicritical polynomials, P_c :z \mapsto z^d+c, with complex c, under the a priori bounds and a certain "combinatorial condition". This implies the local connectivity of the…
