This paper has three aims. First, for $n \geq 1$ we construct a family of real-rooted trigonometric polynomial maps $P : \mathbb C^n \mapsto \mathbb C^n$ whose divisors are Fourier Quasicrystals (FQ). For $n = 1$ these divisors include the…

Let $f_t(z)=z^2+t$. For any $z\in\mathbb{Q}$, let $S_z$ be the collection of $t\in\mathbb{Q}$ such that $z$ is preperiodic for $f_t$. In this article, assuming a well-known conjecture of Flynn, Poonen, and Schaefer, we prove a uniform…

The subject matter of this work is quadratic and cubic polynomial functions with integer coefficients;and all of whose roots are integers. The material of this work is directed primarily at educators,students,and teachers of…

Recently, Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko introduced a $q$-deformation of rational numbers. More precisely, for an irreducible fraction $\frac{r}s>0$, they constructed coprime polynomials $\mathcal{R}_{\frac{r}s}(q),~ \mathcal{S}_{\frac{r}s}(q)…

We study those finite dimensional quotients of the rational Cherednik algebra at t=0 that are supported at a point of the centre. It is shown that each such quotient is Morita equivalent to a certain cuspidal quotient of a rational…

Building on a classification of zeros of cubic equations due to the $12$-th century Persian mathematician Sharaf al-Din Tusi, together with Smale's theory of {\it point estimation}, we derive an efficient recipe for computing high-precision…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct prime numbers, and $X^{pq}/w_q$ be the quotient of the Shimura curve of discriminant $pq$ by the Atkin-Lehner involution $w_q$. We describe a way to verify in wide generality a criterion of Parent and Yafaev…

This article provides a simple trigonometric method for determining how many roots of a quartic equation are real and how many are complex, without solving the equation. The approach replaces the quartic's classical discriminant -- a…

This article addresses the existence of $\Q$-rational periodic points for morphisms of projective space. In particular, we construct an infinitely family of morphisms on $\P^N$ where each component is a degree 2 homogeneous form in $N+1$…

We generalize the work of Dem'janenko and Silverman for the Fermat quartics, effectively determining the rational points on the curves $x^{2m}+ax^m+ay^m+y^{2m}=b$ whenever the ranks of some companion hyperelliptic Jacobians are at most one.…

For a non-commutative ring R, we consider factorizations of polynomials in R[t] where t is a central variable. A pseudo-root of a polynomial p(t) is an element x in R, for which there exist polynomials q(t) and s(t) such that…

In 2016, in the work related to Galois representations, Greenberg conjectured the existence of multi-quadratic $p$-rational number fields of degree $2^{t}$ for any odd prime number $p$ and any integer $t \geq 1$. Using the criteria provided…

This article deals with a quantitative aspect of Hilbert's seventeenth problem: producing a collection of real polynomials in two variables of degree 8 in one variable which are positive but are not a sum of three squares of rational…

Let $f$ be a monic quadratic polynomial over a finite field of odd characteristic. In 2012, Boston and Jones constructed a Markov process based on the post-critical orbit of $f$, and conjectured that its limiting distribution explains the…

There has been growing interest in high-order tensor methods for nonconvex optimization, with adaptive regularization, as they possess better/optimal worst-case evaluation complexity globally and faster convergence asymptotically. These…

We determine the squarefree part of the scalar factor that arises when the quartic invariant of the generic binary form $F$ of odd degree $2n+1$ is expressed as the discriminant of the unique quadratic covariant $(F,F)_{2n}$. This…

We prove that the quartic threefolds defined by $$ \sum_{i=0}^{5}x_i=\sum_{i=0}^{5}x_i^4-t\left(\sum_{i=0}^{5}x_i^2\right)^2=0 $$ in $\mathbb{P}^5$ are rational for $t=\frac{1}{6}$ and $t=\frac{7}{10}$.

We consider bivariate polynomials over the skew field of quaternions, where the indeterminates commute with all coefficients and with each other. We analyze existence of univariate factorizations, that is, factorizations with univariate…

The (generalised) Mellin transforms of certain Chebyshev and Gegenbauer functions based upon the Chebyshev and Gegenbauer polynomials, have polynomial factors $p_n(s)$, whose zeros lie all on the `critical line' $\Re\,s=1/2$ or on the real…

Bounding the number of preperiodic points of quadratic polynomials with rational coefficients is one case of the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture in arithmetic dynamics. Here, we provide a general framework that may reduce finding periodic…
