New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…

In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…

In this paper, we obtain analogues of Jacobi's derivative formula in terms of the theta constants with rational characteristics. For this purpose, we use the arithmetic formulas of the number of representations of a natural number…

A monic polynomial in F_q[t] of degree n over a finite field F_q of odd characteristic can be written as the sum of two irreducible monic elements in F_q[t] of degrees n and n-1 if q is larger than a bound depending only on n. The main tool…

Systems of equations and their solution sets are studied in polyadic groups. We prove that a polyadic group $(G, f)=\mathrm{der}_{\theta, b}(G, \cdot)$ is equational noetherian, if and only if the ordinary group $(G, \cdot)$ is equational…

We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…

Let p be a prime and let F_pbar be the algebraic closure of the finite field of p elements. Let f(x) be any one variable rational function over F_pbar with n poles of orders d_1, ...,d_n. Suppose p is coprime to d_i for every i. We prove…

The Fibonacci polynomials are defined recursively as $f_{n}(x)=xf_{n-1}(x)+f_{n-2}(x)$, where $f_0(x) = 0$ and $f_1(x)= 1$. We generalize these polynomials to an arbitrary number of variables with the $r$-Fibonacci polynomial. We extend…

C. F. Gauss discovered a beautiful formula for the number of irreducible polynomials of a given degree over a finite field. Assuming just a few elementary facts in field theory and the exclusion-inclusion formula, we show how one see the…

A function $\mathfrak{F}$ with simple and nice algebraic properties is defined on a subset of the space of complex sequences. Some special functions are expressible in terms of $\mathfrak{F}$, first of all the Bessel functions of first…

Let $X\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex closed and semialgebraic set and let $f$ be a polynomial positive on $X$. We prove that there exists an exponent $N\geq 1$, such that for any $\xi\in\mathbb{R}^n$ the function…

In this paper we study the orthogonality conditions satisfied by Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha,\beta)}$ when the parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are not necessarily $>-1$. We establish orthogonality on a generic closed contour on a…

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 use the Jacobi theta function to give a representation of the modulus of the Riemann $\xi$ function. Based on this modulus representation, we show that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the validity of a family of polynomial…

Let $l$ be a finite field of cardinality $q$ and let $n$ be in $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$. Let $f_1,\ldots,f_n \in l[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ not all constant and consider the evaluation map $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) \colon l^n \to l^n$. Set…

We evaluate the number of monic polynomials (of arbitrary degree $N$) the zeros of which equal their coefficients when these are allowed to take arbitrary complex values. In the following, we call polynomials with this property {\em…
