In this paper we study unimodality problems for the independence polynomial of a graph, including unimodality, log-concavity and reality of zeros. We establish recurrence relations and give factorizations of independence polynomials for…
In this note we extend the Gauss-Lucas theorem on the zeros of the derivative of a univariate polynomial to the case of sequences of univariate polynomials whose almost all zeros lie in a given convex bounded domain in C.
We construct algebraically closed fields containing an algebraic closure of the field of power series in several variables over a characteristic zero field. Each of these fields depends on the choice of an Abhyankar valuation and are…
Li and Wei (2009) studied the density of zeros of Gaussian harmonic polynomials with independent Gaussian coefficients. They derived a formula for the expected number of zeros of random harmonic polynomials as well as asymptotics for the…
In this paper we pose the question of whether the (generalized) Mukai inequalities hold for compact, positive monotone symplectic manifolds. We first provide a method that enables one to check whether the (generalized) Mukai inequalities…
The Fourier coefficients of a smooth $K$-invariant function on a compact symmetric space $M=U/K$ are given by integration of the function against the spherical functions. For functions with support in a neighborhood of the origin, we…
We study the sequence of monic polynomials $\{S_n\}_{n\geqslant 0}$, orthogonal with respect to the Jacobi-Sobolev inner {product} \;$$ \langle f,g\rangle_{\mathsf{s}}= \int_{-1}^{1} f(x) g(x)\,…
In this paper we provide properties---which are, to the best of our knowledge, new---of the zeros of the polynomials belonging to the Askey scheme. These findings include Diophantine relations satisfied by these zeros when the parameters…
A partition polynomial is a refinement of the partition number p(n) whose coefficients count some special partition statistic. Just as partition numbers have useful asymptotics so do partition polynomials. In fact, their asymptotics…
Let $(X_t)_{t\ge0}$ denote a non-commutative monotone L\'evy process. Let $\omega=(\omega(t))_{t\ge0}$ denote the corresponding monotone L\'evy noise.. A continuous polynomial of $\omega$ is an element of the corresponding non-commutative…
For systems of equations with an infinite set of roots, one can sometimes obtain Kushnirenko-Bernstein-Khovanskii type theorem if replace the number of roots by their asymptotic density. We consider systems of entire functions with…
We give a complete characterization of polynomials in two complex variables that are cyclic with respect to the coordinate shifts acting on Dirichlet-type spaces in the bidisk, which include the Hardy space and the Dirichlet space of the…
A celebrated theorem of Shoda states that over any field K (of characteristic 0), every matrix with trace 0 can be expressed as a commutator AB-BA, or, equivalently, that the set of values of the polynomial f(x,y)=xy-yx on the nxn-matrix…
We introduce a theory of orthogonal polynomials on the unit sphere of the quaternions based on the notion of a $q$-positive measure (which originated in a work of Alpay, Colombo, the second author and Sabadini). The results we extend to…
Let $X_N$ be a random trigonometric polynomial of degree $N$ with iid coefficients and let $Z_N(I)$ denote the (random) number of its zeros lying in the compact interval $I\subset\mathbb{R}$. Recently, a number of important advances were…
We establish some new Tur\'an's type inequalities for orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence with monotonic coefficients. As a corollary we deduce asymptotic bounds on the extreme zeros of orthogonal polynomials with…
In this note, we prove a central limit theorem for smooth linear statistics of zeros of random polynomials which are linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials with iid standard complex Gaussian coefficients. Along the way, we obtain…
We attach Hecke polynomials $P_n(F;x)$ to weak Hecke eigenforms $F$ of weight $2-k$ and show that, for large $n$, every zero is simple and lies in $[0,1728]$. The construction pulls back a weakly holomorphic Hecke combination of $F$ along…
We prove several theorems concerning arithmetic properties of Stern polynomials defined in the following way: $B_{0}(t)=0, B_{1}(t)=1, B_{2n}(t)=tB_{n}(t)$, and $B_{2n+1}(t)=B_{n}(t)+B_{n+1}(t)$. We study also the sequence…
We give a survey concerning both very classical and recent results on the electrostatic interpretation of the zeros of some well-known families of polynomials, and the interplay between these models and the asymptotic distribution of their…
