Consider a finite collection of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^d$. The hyperplanes dissect $\mathbb R^d$ into finitely many polyhedral chambers. For a point $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and a chamber $P$ the metric projection of $x$ onto $P$ is the…
Polynomial remainder sequences contain the intermediate results of the Euclidean algorithm when applied to (non-)commutative polynomials. The running time of the algorithm is dependent on the size of the coefficients of the remainders.…
Assume that the Riemann hypothesis holds for Dedekind zeta functions. Under this assumption, we prove that a degree $d$ polynomial with random multiplicative $\pm1$ coefficients is irreducible in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with probability…
We prove that r independent homogeneous polynomials of the same degree d become dependent when restricted to any hyperplane if and only if their inverse system parameterizes a variety whose (d-1)-osculating spaces have dimension smaller…
Wang and Yeh proved that if $P(x)$ is a polynomial with nonnegative and nondecreasing coefficients, then $P(x+d)$ is unimodal for any $d>0$. A mode of a unimodal polynomial $f(x)=a_0+a_1x+\cdots + a_mx^m$ is an index $k$ such that $a_k$ is…
Let $\Gamma=(V,E)$ be a finite simple graph. A matching $M \subseteq E$ is positive if there exists a weight function on $V$ such that the matching $M$ is characterized by those edges with positive weights. A positive matching decomposition…
Let $\MP_d$ denote the space of polynomials $f: \C \to \C$ of degree $d\geq 2$, modulo conjugation by $\Aut(\C)$. Using properties of polynomial trees (as introduced in [DM, math.DS/0608759]), we show that if $f_n$ is a divergent sequence…
Let $d$ and $n$ be positive integers, and $E/F$ be a separable field extension of degree $m=\binom{n+d}{n}$. We show that if $|F| > 2$, then there exists a point $P\in \mathbb{P}^n(E)$ which does not lie on any degree $d$ hypersurface…
We are interested in differential forms on mixed-dimensional geometries, in the sense of a domain containing sets of $d$-dimensional manifolds, structured hierarchically so that each $d$-dimensional manifold is contained in the boundary of…
We classify hyperbolic polynomials in two real variables that admit a transitive action on some component of their hyperbolic level sets. Such surfaces are called special homogeneous surfaces, and they are equipped with a natural Riemannian…
Let n,d be positive integers, with d even (say d=2e). Let X_(n,d) denote the locus of degree d hypersurfaces in P^n which consist of two e-fold hyperplanes. We bound the regularity of the ideal of this variety. Moreover, we show that this…
We study an abstract equation in a reflexive Banach space, depending on a real parameter $\lambda$. The equation is composed by homogeneous potential operators. By analyzing the Nehari sets, we prove a bifurcation result. In some particular…
Let L be the zero set of a nonconstant monic polynomial with complex coefficients. In the context of constructive mathematics without countable choice, it may not be possible to construct an element of L. In this paper we introduce a notion…
We provide simple criteria and algorithms for expressing homogeneous polynomials as sums of powers of independent linear forms, or equivalently, for decomposing symmetric tensors into sums of rank-1 symmetric tensors of linearly independent…
In this note we present a method to bound gaps between primes via the divergence of the series of reciprocals of the prime numbers, a consequence of a version of the Bertrand's test for convergence of series of positive numbers and a…
By studying laminations of the unit disk, we can gain insight into the structure of Julia sets of polynomials and their dynamics in the complex plane. The polynomials of a given degree, $d$, have a parameter space. The hyperbolic components…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective irreducible curve of genus $g$. And let $G_{\alpha}(n,d,l)$ be the moduli space of $\alpha$ stable pairs of a vector bundle of $\rank n, \deg d$ and a subspace of $H^0(C,E)$ of $\dim = l $. We find an explicit…
A beautiful result of Br\"ocker and Scheiderer on the stability index of basic closed semi-algebraic sets implies, as a very special case, that every $d$-dimensional polyhedron admits a representation as the set of solutions of at most…
We consider a space of complex polynomials of degree $n\ge 3$ with $n-1$ distinguished periodic orbits. We prove that the multipliers of these periodic orbits considered as algebraic functions on that space, are algebraically independent…
A limiting property of the nearest-neighbor recurrence coefficients for multiple orthogonal polynomials from a Nevai class is investigated. Namely, assuming that the nearest-neighbor coefficients have a limit along rays of the lattice, we…
