We investigate the computational problem of determining whether a bivariate polynomial with non-negative coefficients and no constant term can attain a prime value. While classical conjectures such as Bouniakowsky's provide necessary…

In this paper, we consider methods to compute the coefficients of interpolants relative to a basis of polynomials satisfying a three-term recurrence relation. Two new algorithms are presented: the first constructs the coefficients of the…

We survey divisibility properties of the Fourier coefficients of modular functions inspired by Ramanujan. Then using recent results of the generalized Hecke operator on harmonic Maass functions and known divisibility of Fourier coefficients…

The analysis of many physical phenomena can be reduced to the study of solutions of differential equations with polynomial coefficients. In the present work, we establish the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of…

A cyclotomic polynomial Phi_n(x) is said to be ternary if n=pqr with p,q and r distinct odd prime factors. Ternary cyclotomic polynomials are the simplest ones for which the behaviour of the coefficients is not completely understood. Eli…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the mixed Hodge polynomial of the ``space of equations'' for smooth complete intersections of given multidegree in $\mathbb{C} P^n$ is divisible by the mixed Hodge polynomial of the group…

In this paper one extends the binomial and trinomial coefficients to the concept of 'k-nomial' coefficients, and one obtains some properties of these. As an application one generalizes Pascal's triangle.

A polynomial is a direct sum if it can be written as a sum of two non-zero polynomials in some distinct sets of variables, up to a linear change of variables. We analyze criteria for a homogeneous polynomial to be decomposable as a direct…

Let $f(x) = \sum\limits _{i=0}^{n} a_i x^i $ be a polynomial with coefficients from the ring $\mathbb{Z}$ of integers satisfying either $(i)$ $0 < a_0 \leq a_{1} \leq \cdots \leq a_{k-1} < a_{k} < a_{k+1} \leq \cdots \leq a_n$ for some $k$,…

A class P_{n,m,p}(x) of polynomials is defined. The combinatorial meaning of its coefficients is given. Chebyshev polynomials are the special cases of P_{n,m,p}(x). It is first shown that P_{n,m,p}(x) may be expressed in terms of…

We give a new operator formula for Grothendieck polynomials that generalizes Magyar's Demazure operator formula for Schubert polynomials. Our proofs are purely combinatorial, contrasting with the geometric and representation theoretic tools…

We prove that, over a field of characteristic $0$, the degrees of factors of a binomial $t^n-\alpha$ are divisible by the least such degree. As a consequence, we deduce that for relatively prime natural numbers $m,n$, a polynomial has the…

Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…

Following work of Mazur-Tate and Satoh, we extend the definition of division polynomials to arbitrary isogenies of elliptic curves, including those whose kernels do not sum to the identity. In analogy to the classical case of division…

We consider binomial and inverse binomial sums at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi$ or $\log(2)$. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as specializations of…

We investigate the coefficients of the polynomial \[ S_{m,r}^n(\ell)=r^n+(m+r)^n+(2m+r)^n+\cdots+((\ell-1)m+r)^n. \] We prove that these can be given in terms of Stirling numbers of the first kind and $r$-Whitney numbers of the second kind.…

We provide explicit conditions for a real polynomial $f$ of degree 2d to be a sum of squares (s.o.s.), stated only in terms of the coefficients of $f$, i.e. with no lifting. All conditions are simple and provide an explicit description of a…
