Let $d>m>1$ be integers, let $c_1,\dots, c_{m+1}$ be distinct complex numbers, and let $\mathbf{f}(z):=z^d+t_1z^{m-1}+t_2z^{m-2}+\cdots + t_{m-1}z+t_m$ be an $m$-parameter family of polynomials. We prove that the set of $m$-tuples of…
Nuij's theorem states that if a polynomial $p\in \mathbb{R}[z]$ is hyperbolic (i.e., has only real roots) then $p+sp'$ is also hyperbolic for any $s\in \mathbb{R}$. We study other perturbations of hyperbolic polynomials of the form…
We prove the a priori bounds for infinitely renormalizable quadratic polynomials for which we can find an infinite sequence of primitive renormalizations such that the ratios of the periods of successive renormalizations is bounded. This…
We suggest a closed solution for the roots of polynomial trinomial algebraic equation $$z^n+xz^{n-1}-1=0$$ with an appropriate $x$. This solution is a minor modification to the work of Mikhalkin (Mikhalkin E N, 2006. On solving general…
The concept of polynomials in the sense of algebraic analysis, for a single right invertible linear operator, was introduced and studied originally by D. Przeworska-Rolewicz \cite{DPR}. One of the elegant results corresponding with that…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a quadratic polynomial to be irreducible in the ring $Z[[x]]$ of formal power series with integer coefficients. For $n,m\ge 1$ and $p$ prime, we show that $p^n+p^m\beta x+\alpha x^2$ is…
We study the forward orbit of the critical point for polynomials of the form $f_c=z^2+c$ defined over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Hubbard trees capture the dynamical behavior for such maps with finite critical orbit in $\mathbb{C}$. We suggest a notion…
The isolation intervals of the real roots of the real symbolic monic cubic polynomial $p(x) = x^3 + a x^2 + b x + c\,\,$ are found in terms of simple functions of the coefficients of the polynomial (such as: $-a$, $-a/3$, $-c/b$, $\pm…
Let $G_n$ denote the $n^{\rm th}$ Gleason polynomial, whose roots correspond to parameters $c$ such that the critical point $0$ is periodic of exact period $n$ under iteration of $z^2 + c$, and let $\bar{G}_n$ denote the reduction of $G_n$…
For rational numbers $c$, we present a trichotomy of the set of totally real (totally $p$-adic, respectively) preperiodic points for maps in the quadratic unicritical family $f_c(x)=x^2+c$. As a consequence, we classify quadratic…
We consider the even monic degree-$10$ second cuboid polynomial $Q_{p,q}(t)\in\mathbb{Z}[t]$ depending on coprime integers $p\neq q>0$. We exclude the existence of a splitting of type $5+5$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, i.e., a factorization of…
For each $t\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$, define an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ by \begin{align*} E_t:y^2=x(x+1)(x+t^2). \end{align*} Using a formula for the root number $W(E_t)$ as a function of $t$ and assuming some standard…
Suppose that f has continuous derivatives thru order r+1 for x>0, and let P_{c} denote the Taylor polynomial to f of order r at x=c,c>0. In a previous paper of the author, it was shown that if r is an odd whole number and the (r+1)st…
This is a continuation of notes on dynamics of quadratic polynomials. In this part we transfer the our prior geometric result to the parameter plane. To any parameter value c in the Mandelbrot set (which lies outside of the main cardioid…
We prove a priori bounds for Feigenbaum quadratic polynomials, i.e., infinitely renormalizable polynomials $f_c: z\mapsto z^2+c$ of bounded type. It implies local connectivity of the corresponding Julia sets $J(f_c)$ and MLC (local…
We establish upper bounds on the size of the largest subset of $\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ lacking nonzero differences of the form $h(p_1,\dots,p_{\ell})$, where $h\in \mathbb{Z}[x_1,\dots,x_{\ell}]$ is a fixed polynomial satisfying appropriate…
We consider the Hurwitz action on quasipositive factorizations of a 3-braid. In a previous paper, for any given 3-braid we described a certain finite set which contains at least one representative of each orbit. Here we give an algorithm to…
Let p(x) be a polynomial of degree 4 with four distinct real roots r1<r2<r3<r4. Let x1<x2<x3 be the critical points of p, and define the ratios s_{k}=((x_{k}-r_{k})/(r_{k+1}-r_{k})),k=1,2,3. For notational convenience, let s1=u, s2=v, and…
The {\it Weierstrass semigroup} of pole orders of meromorphic functions in a point $p$ of a smooth algebraic curve $C$ is a classical object of study; a celebrated problem of Hurwitz is to characterize which semigroups ${\rm S} \subset…
Fix a prime number $d$. The post-critically finite polynomials of the form $f_{d,c} = x^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[x]$ play a fundamental role in polynomial dynamics. While many results are known in the complex dynamical setting, much less is…
