The polynomials $d_n(x)$ are defined by \begin{align*} d_n(x) &= \sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}{x\choose k}2^k. \end{align*} We prove that, for any prime $p$, the following congruences hold modulo $p$: \begin{align*}…
We show that any $p$-form on the smooth locus of a normal complex space extends to a resolution of singularities, possibly with logarithmic poles, as long as $p \le \mathrm{codim}_X (X_{\mathrm{sg}}) - 2$, where $c$ is the codimension of…
Let $p$ be a prime, let $1 \le t < d < p$ be integers, and let $S$ be a non-empty subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$. We establish that if a polynomial $P:\mathbb{F}_p^n \to \mathbb{F}_p$ with degree $d$ is such that the image $P(S^n)$ does not…
We consider polynomials in R[x] which map the set of nonnegative (element-wise) matrices of a given order into itself. Let n be a positive integer and define P(n)= {p in R[x] : p(A) is nonnegative (element-wise), for all A, A an n-by-n…
We prove the B. and M. Shapiro conjecture that says that if the Wronskian of a set of polynomials has real roots only, then the complex span of this set of polynomials has a basis consisting of polynomials with real coefficients. This in…
We give sufficient conditions under which a polyanalytic polynomial of degree $n$ has (i) at least one zero, and (ii) finitely many zeros. In the latter case, we prove that the number of zeros is bounded by $n^2$. We then show that for all…
Poincar\'e series of $p$-adic, definable equivalence relations have been studied in various cases since Igusa's and Denef's work related to counting solutions of polynomial equations modulo $p^n$ for prime $p$. General semi-algebraic…
We prove a precise version of a general conjecture on the polar degree stated by June Huh. We confirm Huh's conjectural list of all projective hypersurfaces with isolated singularities and polar degree equal to 2.
June Huh and Matthew Stevens conjectured that the Hilbert-Poincar\'e series of the Chow ring of any matroid is a polynomial with only real zeros. We prove this conjecture for the class of uniform matroids. We also prove that the Chow…
We give new sufficient conditions for a sequence of polynomials to have only real zeros based on the method of interlacing zeros. As applications we derive several well-known facts, including the reality of zeros of orthogonal polynomials,…
In this paper we prove that for all degree $6$ polynomials with rational coefficients that $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) \neq \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. The answers a question of B. Poonen and J. S. Lew in the degree 6 case. This work builds on previous work…
In this paper we first prove that a simple root of a polynomial satisfies the Sendov's conjecture. As the multiple roots trivially satisfy the Sendov's conjecture we conclude that the Sendov's conjecture holds true.
In this paper, we obtain a characterization of short normal sequences over a finite Abelian p-group, thus answering positively a conjecture of Gao for a variety of such groups. Our main result is deduced from a theorem of Alon, Friedland…
A novel method with two variations is proposed with which the number of positive and negative zeros of a polynomial with real coefficients and degree $n$ can be restricted with significantly better determinacy than that provided by the…
We show that with high probability the number of real zeroes of a random polynomial is bounded by the number of vertices on its Newton-Hadamard polygon times the cube of the logarithm of the polynomial degree. A similar estimate holds for…
Let $(P, Q)$ be a pair of Jacobian polynomials. We can show that $ <P, Q>+l+2g(P)-2= 0= <P, [P,Q]>$, where $<f, g>$ is the intersection number of $f, g\in \CC[x, y]$ in the affine plane, $l$ is the number of branch at point at infinity and…
For any prime p and any positive integer n, let B(p,n) denote the n-th layer of the cyclotomic Z_p-extension over the rationals. Based on the heuristics of Cohen and Lenstra, and refined by new results on class numbers of particular B(p,n),…
We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…
In this paper, we prove the real-rootedness of two classes of generalized Narayana polynomials: one arising as the $h$-polynomials of the generalized associahedron associated to the finite Weyl groups, the other arising in the study of the…
The main goal of this article is to provide a proof of the Pederson-Roy-Szpirglas theorem about counting common real zeros of real polynomial equations by using basic results from Linear algebra and Commutative algebra. The main tools are…
