Let $ K $ be a number field, $ S $ a finite set of places of $ K $, and $ \mathcal{O}_S $ be the ring of $ S $-integers. Moreover, let $$ G_n^{(0)} Z^d + \cdots + G_n^{(d-1)} Z + G_n^{(d)} $$ be a polynomial in $ Z $ having simple linear…
Let $p$ be a prime number. As a standard application of the irreducibility criterion of Eisenstein, it is well known that the $p$-th cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_p(t)=1+t+\dots+t^{p-1}$ is the minimal polynomial of $e^{2\pi i/p}$ over…
Bounding the number of preperiodic points of quadratic polynomials with rational coefficients is one case of the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture in arithmetic dynamics. Here, we provide a general framework that may reduce finding periodic…
We construct an infinite family of real cyclotomic fields with non-trivial class group. This result generalizes the result in [1] in the sense that our family includes theirs.
Cyclotomic polynomials play an important role in several areas of mathematics and their study has a very long history, which goes back at least to Gauss (1801). In particular, the properties of their coefficients have been intensively…
We discuss existence of explicit search bounds for zeros of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. Our main result is a theorem about the existence of polynomial zeros of small height over the field of algebraic numbers outside of…
For a set $S$ of quadratic polynomials over a finite field, let $C$ be the (infinite) set of arbitrary compositions of elements in $S$. In this paper we show that there are examples with arbitrarily large $S$ such that every polynomial in…
Standard integration-by-parts (IBP) reduction methods typically yield Feynman integral bases where the reduction of some integrals gives rise to coefficients singular as the dimensional regulator $\epsilon\rightarrow 0$. These singular…
We give a method of constructing polynomials of arbitrarily large degree irreducible over a global field F but reducible modulo every prime of F. The method consists of finding quadratic f in F[x] whose iterates have the desired property,…
The requirement for solving a polynomial is a means of breaking its symmetry, which in the case of the quintic, is that of the symmetric group S_5. Induced by its five-dimensional linear permutation representation is a three-dimensional…
We describe a congruence property of solvable polynomials over Q, based on the irreducibility of cyclotomic polynomials over number fields that meet certain conditions.
We show the existence of and explicitly construct generic polynomials for various groups, over fields of positive characteristic. The methods we develop apply to a broad class of connected linear algebraic groups defined over finite fields…
Let $x_1,x_2,...,x_n$ be the zeroes of a polynomial P(x) of degree n and $y_1,y_2,...,y_m$ be the zeroes of another polynomial Q(y) of degree m. Our object of study is the permanent $\per(1/(x_i-y_j))_{1\le i\le n, 1\le j\le m}$, here named…
This paper is purely expository. We present short elementary proofs of * the Gauss Theorem on constructibility of regular polygons; * the existence of a cubic equation unsolvable in real radicals; * the existence of a quintic equation…
We present a change of basis that may allow more efficient calculation of the volumes of Birkhoff polytopes using a slicing method. We construct the basis from a special set of square matrices. We explain how to construct this basis easily…
In a recent paper, we considered integers n for which the polynomial x^n - 1 has a divisor in Z[x] of every degree up to n, and we gave upper and lower bounds for their distribution. In this paper, we consider those n for which the…
We present the formula for the number of monic irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$ where the coefficients of $x^{n-1}$ and $x$ vanish for $n\ge3$. In particular, we give a relation between rational…
Let L be the zero set of a nonconstant monic polynomial with complex coefficients. In the context of constructive mathematics without countable choice, it may not be possible to construct an element of L. In this paper we introduce a notion…
Given a numerical semigroup $S$, we let $\mathrm P_S(x)=(1-x)\sum_{s\in S}x^s$ be its semigroup polynomial. We study cyclotomic numerical semigroups; these are numerical semigroups $S$ such that $\mathrm P_S(x)$ has all its roots in the…
We give two proofs of a folkore result relating numerical semigroups of embedding dimension two and binary cyclotomic polynomials and explore some consequences. In particular, we give a more conceptual reproof of a result of Hong et al.…
