This note mainly concerns the binomial power function, defined as $(1+x^q)^{r}$. We construct systems of polynomials related to non-local approximation, which allows us to establish the density results on $C[a,b]$, where $a,b\in\mathbb{R}$.…

In this paper, we investigate permutation polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ with $q=2^m$, focusing on those in the form $\mathrm{Tr}(Ax^{q+1})+L(x)$, where $A\in\mathbb F_{q^n}^*$ and $L$ is a $2$-linear polynomial over…

Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…

Except for a limited number of cases, a complete classification of the Diophantine sets of polynomial rings and fields of rational functions seems out of reach at present. We contribute to this problem by proving that several natural sets…

Define the $n$-th fibotomic polynomial to be the product of the monic irredicible factors of the $n$-th Fibonacci polynomial which are not factors of any Fibonacci polynomial of smaller degree. In this paper, we prove a number of properties…

This paper concerns matrix "convex" functions of (free) noncommuting variables, $x = (x_1, \ldots, x_g)$. Helton and McCullough showed that a polynomial in $x$ which is matrix convex is of degree two or less. We prove a more general result:…

We prove that hypersurfaces defined by irreducible square-free polynomials have rational singularities. As an easy consequence, we deduce that certain (possibly non-square-free) polynomials associated to pairs of square-free polynomials…

We remark on pseudo-elliptic integrals and on exceptional function fields, namely function fields defined over an infinite base field but nonetheless containing non-trivial units. Our emphasis is on some elementary criteria that must be…

Properties of the $q$-ultraspherical polynomials for $q$ being a primitive root of unity are derived using a formalism of the $so_q(3)$ algebra. The orthogonality condition for these polynomials provides a new class of trigonometric…

In this work we study the associated Legendre functions of the second kind with a purely imaginary argument $Q^k_\ell(\mathbb{i}\, x)$. We derive the conditions under which they provide a set of square integrable functions when $x \in…

Permutation polynomials have been a subject of study for a long time and have applications in many areas of science and engineering. However, only a small number of specific classes of permutation polynomials are described in the literature…

A hypergeometric type equation satisfying certain conditions defines either a finite or an infinite system of orthogonal polynomials. We present in a unified and explicit way all these systems of orthogonal polynomials, the associated…

The suitable basis functions for approximating periodic function are periodic, trigonometric functions. When the function is not periodic, a viable alternative is to consider polynomials as basis functions. In this paper we will point out…

In this article, we prove some factorization results for several classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield several classes of irreducible polynomials. Such classes of polynomials are devised by imposing…

The double-direction orthogonalization algorithm is applied to construct sequences of polynomials, which are orthogonal over the interval [0,1]with the weighting function 1. Functional and recurrent relations are derived for the sequences…

We prove that, provided $d > k$, every sufficiently large subset of $\mathbf{F}_q^d$ contains an isometric copy of every $k$-simplex that avoids spanning a nontrivial self-orthogonal subspace. We obtain comparable results for simplices…

We study rational functions over finite fields under PGL-equivalence. We say that $f, g \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\psi, \phi \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g = \psi \circ f \circ \phi$. Most…

We introduce the notion of "quasi-symmetric" polynomials, which is a generalization of the notion of symmetry, and is particularly suited to the setting of polynomial rings over finite fields. The properties of this new class of functions…

Orthogonal polynomials in two variables on cubic curves are considered, including the case of elliptic curves. For an integral with respect to an appropriate weight function defined on a cubic curve, an explicit basis of orthogonal…

We study inhomogeneous $q$-Whittaker polynomials which extend both $q$-Whittaker and stable Grothendieck polynomials. We prove that inhomogeneous $q$-Whittaker polynomials (in countably many variables) form a basis of certain commutative…
