We introduce a sequence P_d of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed as well as the peripheral coefficients. We prove that the ratio between number of nonunimodular roots of P_d and its…
In this paper, we classify, up to three possible exceptions, all monic, post-critically finite quadratic polynomials $f(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ with an iterate reducible module every prime, but all of whose iterates are irreducible over…
An irreducible element of a commutative ring is absolutely irreducible if no power of it has more than one (essentially different) factorization into irreducibles. In the case of the ring $\text{Int}(D)=\{f\in K[x]\mid f(D)\subseteq D\}$,…
M. Hochster defines an invariant namely $\Theta(M,N)$ associated to two finitely generated module over a hyper-surface ring $R=P/f$, where $P=k\{x_0,...,x_n\}$ or $k[X_0,...,x_n]$, for $k$ a field and $f$ is a germ of holomorphic function…
Let $S$ be a domain and $R=S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$ -derivation. We give criteria for skew polynomials $f\in R$ of degree less or equal to…
The monodromy conjecture is a mysterious open problem in singularity theory. Its original version relates arithmetic and topological/geometric properties of a multivariate polynomial $f$ over the integers, more precisely, poles of the…
An element $g$ in a group $G$ is called \emph{reciprocal} if there exists $h \in G$ such that $g^{-1}=hgh^{-1}$. The reciprocal elements are also known as `real elements' or `reversible elements' in the literature. We classify the…
In this paper, for any nonic number field $K$ generated by a root $\alpha$ of a monic irreducible trinomial $F(x)=x^9+ax+b \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and for every rational prime $p$, we characterize when $p$ divides the index of $K$. We also…
Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer, and let $(U_n)$ be the Lucas sequence of the first kind defined by \begin{equation*}\label{Eq:Lucas} U_0=0,\quad U_1=1\quad \mbox{and} \quad U_n=kU_{n-1}+U_{n-2} \quad \mbox{ for $n\ge 2$}. \end{equation*} It is…
L. Jones characterized among others monogenity of a family of cyclic sextic polynomials. Our purpose is to study monogenity of the family of corresponding sextic number fields. This also provides the first non-trivial application of the…
A skew polynomial ring $R=K[x;\sigma,\delta]$ is a ring of polynomials with non-commutative multiplication. This creates a difference between left and right divisibility, and thus a concept of left and right evaluations and roots. A…
Given a field $F$, an integer $n\geq 1$, and a matrix $A\in M_n(F)$, are there polynomials $f,g\in F[X]$, with $f$ monic of degree $n$, such that $A$ is similar to $g(C_f)$, where $C_f$ is the companion matrix of $f$? For infinite fields…
For a class of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, which in particular includes all quadratic polynomials, and also trinomials of some special form, we show that, under some natural conditions (necessary for quadratic polynomials), the set…
Given a field $K$ and $n > 1$, we say that a polynomial $f \in K[x]$ has newly reducible $n$th iterate over $K$ if $f^{n-1}$ is irreducible over $K$, but $f^n$ is not (here $f^i$ denotes the $i$th iterate of $f$). We pose the problem of…
In all available papers, on power integral bases of pure octic number fields $K$, generated by a root $\alpha$ of a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)=x^8-m\in\mathbf Z[x]$, it was assumed that $m\neq \pm 1$ is square free. In this paper,…
Given an odd integer polynomial f(x) of a degree k >=3, we construct a non-negative valued, normed trigonometric polynomial with the spectrum in the set of integer values of f(x) not greater than n, and a small free coefficient…
We prove that the equality problem is decidable for rational subsets of the monogenic free inverse monoid $F$. It is also decidable whether or not a rational subset of $F$ is recognizable. We prove that a submonoid of $F$ is rational if and…
Viewing a bivariate polynomial f in R[x,t] as a family of univariate polynomials in t parametrized by real numbers x, we call f real rooted if this family consists of monic polynomials with only real roots. If f is the characteristic…
We show that if $A$ is a finite set of non-negative integers then the number of zeros of the function \[ f_A(\theta) = \sum_{a \in A} \cos(a\theta), \] in $[0,2\pi]$, is at least $(\log \log \log |A|)^{1/2-\varepsilon}$. This gives the…
An integer-valued multiplicative function $f$ is said to be polynomially-defined if there is a nonconstant separable polynomial $F(T)\in \mathbb{Z}[T]$ with $f(p)=F(p)$ for all primes $p$. We study the distribution in coprime residue…
