Sparse (or toric) elimination exploits the structure of polynomials by measuring their complexity in terms of Newton polytopes instead of total degree. The sparse, or Newton, resultant generalizes the classical homogeneous resultant and its…
The Todd polynomials, denoted as $td_k(b_1,b_2,\ldots,b_m)$, are characterised by their generating functions: $$\sum_{k\ge 0} td_k s^k = \prod_{i=1}^m \frac{b_i s}{e^{b_i s}-1}.$$ These polynomials serve as fundamental components in the…
Motivated by an application of semigroup variants to the discrete log problem in groups and related cryptographic applications, we introduce a new kind of totient function, related to both Euler's function and a generalisation of Euler's…
The theory of symmetric functions has been extended to the case where each variable is paired with an anticommuting one. The resulting expressions, dubbed superpolynomials, provide the natural N=1 supersymmetric version of the classical…
In an isomorphic copy of the ring of symmetric polynomials we study some families of polynomials which are indexed by rational weight vectors. These families include well known symmetric polynomials, such as the elementary, homogeneous, and…
We define an extension of the Ramanujan trigonometric function to arbitrary dimensions, and give the Dirichlet series generating function. The extension was first given by Eckford Cohen long ago. This links directly to visible point vector…
Consider an ordinary generating function $\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}c_kx^k$, of an integer sequence of some combinatorial relevance, and assume that it admits a closed form $C(x)$. Various instances are known where the corresponding truncated sum…
The aim of this paper is twofold. Firstly, we investigate a finite sum involving the generalized falling factorial polynomials, in some special cases of which we express it in terms of the degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind, the…

This paper reexamines univariate reduction from a toric geometric point of view. We begin by constructing a binomial variant of the $u$-resultant and then retailor the generalized characteristic polynomial to fully exploit sparsity in the…
A symmetric function of $N$ variables can be given in terms of symmetric polynomials of these variables. We determine those symmetric polynomials in which the dual differential operators take the neatest form when expressed in terms of our…
We generalize Newton-type methods for minimizing smooth functions to handle a sum of two convex functions: a smooth function and a nonsmooth function with a simple proximal mapping. We show that the resulting proximal Newton-type methods…
We introduce a generalization of symmetric functions and apply the resulting theory to compute the class in the Grothendieck ring of varieties of the space of geometrically irreducible hypersurfaces of a fixed degree in projective space.
We derive certain identities involving various known arithmetical functions and a generalized version of Ramanujan sum. L. Toth constructed certain weighted averages of Ramanujan sums with various arithmetic functions as weights. We choose…
