We introduce a family of 3-variable "Farey polynomials" that are closely connected with the geometry and topology of $3$-manifolds and orbifolds as they can be used to produce concrete realisations of the boundaries and local coordinates…

We derive semiclassical asymptotics for the orthogonal polynomials P_n(z) on the line with respect to the exponential weight \exp(-NV(z)), where V(z) is a double-well quartic polynomial, in the limit when n, N \to \infty. We assume that…

We prove that two n-by-n matrices A and B have their rank-k numerical ranges $\Lambda_k(A)$ and $\Lambda_k(B)$ equal to each other for all k, $1\le k\le \lfloor n/2\rfloor+1$, if and only if their Kippenhahn polynomials…

In a previous paper, we introduced the Collatz polynomials $P_N(z)$, whose coefficients are the terms of the Collatz sequence of the positive integer $N$. Our work in this paper expands on our previous results, using the Enestr\"om-Kakeya…

We find and discuss asymptotic formulas for orthonormal polynomials $P_{n}(z)$ with recurrence coefficients $a_{n}, b_{n}$. Our main goal is to consider the case where off-diagonal elements $a_{n}\to\infty$ as $n\to\infty$. Formulas…

We obtain the strong asymptotics of polynomials $p_n(\lambda)$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$, orthogonal with respect to measures in the complex plane of the form $$ e^{-N(|\lambda|^{2s}-t\lambda^s-\overline{t\lambda}^s)}dA(\lambda), $$ where $s$…

We show how to obtain linear combinations of polynomials in an orthogonal sequence $\{P_n\}_{n\geq 0}$, such as $Q_{n,k}(x)=\sum\limits_{i=0}^k a_{n,i}P_{n-i}(x)$, $a_{n,0}a_{n,k}\neq0$, that characterize quasi-orthogonal polynomials of…

The aim of this paper is twofold. The first part is concerned with the associated and the so-called co-polynomials, i.e. new sequences obtained when finite perturbations of the recurrence coefficients are considered. In the second part we…

In this paper, we derive some formulae involving coefficients of polynomials which occur quite naturally in the study of restricted partitions. Our method involves a recently discovered sieve technique by Li and Wan (Sci. China. Math.…

Let $p_n$ be the characteristic polynomial of an $n \times n$ random matrix drawn from one of the compact classical matrix groups. We show that the critical points of $p_n$ converge to the uniform distribution on the unit circle as $n$…

Assume that $\{a_{n};\,n\geq0\}$ is a sequence of positive numbers and $\sum a_{n}^{\,-1}<\infty$. Let $\alpha_{n}=ka_{n}$, $\beta_{n}=a_{n}+k^{2}a_{n-1}$ where $k\in(0,1)$ is a parameter, and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be an orthonormal polynomial…

In this paper, we prove that if $f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}a_kx^k$ is a polynomial with real zeros only, then the sequence $\{a_k\}_{k=0}^n$ satisfies the following inequalities $a_{k+1}^2(1-\sqrt{1-c_k})^2/a_k^2…

For certain polynomials we relate the number of roots inside the unit circle with the index of a non-degenerate isolated umbilic point on a real analytic surface in Euclidean 3-space. In particular, for $N>0$ we prove that for a certain…

We obtain asymptotic formulas for sums over arithmetic progressions of coefficients of polynomials of the form $$\prod_{j=1}^n\prod_{k=1}^{p-1}(1-q^{pj-k})^s,$$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $n, s$ are positive integers. Let us denote by…

The polynomials that arise as coefficients when a power series is raised to the power $x$ include many important special cases, which have surprising properties that are not widely known. This paper explains how to recognize and use such…

Descent polynomials and peak polynomials, which enumerate permutations with given descent and peak sets respectively, have recently received considerable attention. We give several formulas for $q$-analogs of these polynomials which refine…

We investigate the Stern polynomials defined by $B_0 ( t ) =0,B_1 ( t ) =1$, and for $n \geq 2$ by the recurrence relations $B_{2n}( t) =tB_{n}( t) ,$ $B_{2n+1}( t) =B_n( t) +B_{n+1}( t) $. We prove that all possible rational roots of that…

A cubic Galois polynomial is a cubic polynomial with rational coefficients that defines a cubic Galois field. Its discriminant is a full square and its roots $x_1,x_2,x_3$ (enumerated in some order) are real. There exists (and only one)…
