We give a new method for the evaluation of a class of integrals of rational symmetric functions in N pairs of variables {x_a, y_a}_{a=1,... N} arising in coupled matrix models, valid for a broad class of two-variable measures. The result is…

We prove that the Julia set of a rational function $f$ is computable in polynomial time, assuming that the postcritical set of $f$ does not contain any critical points or parabolic periodic orbits.

Spinor polynomials are polynomials with coefficients in the even sub-algebra of conformal geometric algebra whose norm polynomial is real. They describe rational conformal motions. Factorizations of spinor polynomial corresponds to the…

We consider the problem of sensitivity of threshold risk, defined as the probability of a function of a random variable falling below a specified threshold level $\delta >0.$ We demonstrate that for polynomial and rational functions of that…

We consider the problem of globally minimizing the sum of many rational functions over a given compact semialgebraic set. The number of terms can be large (10 to 100), the degree of each term should be small (up to 10), and the number of…

Let $A$ and $B$ be non-constant rational functions over $\mathbb{C}$, and let $K \subset \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ be an infinite set. Using height functions, we prove that the inclusion $ A^{-1}(K) \subseteq B^{-1}(K) $ implies the…

We analyze certain compositions of rational inner functions in the unit polydisk $\mathbb{D}^{d}$ with polydegree $(n,1)$, $n\in \mathbb{N}^{d-1}$, and isolated singularities in $\mathbb{T}^d$. Provided an irreducibility condition is met,…

We define a very general class of rational functions f:CP^1 --> CP^1 such that for every function f of this class, there exists a countable family of smooth curves \gamma_i and a critically finite hyperbolic function R such that the…

Recursive analysis was introduced by A. Turing [1936], A. Grzegorczyk [1955], and D. Lacombe [1955]. It is based on a discrete mechanical framework that can be used to model computation over the real numbers. In this context the…

Functionals are an important research subject in Mathematics and Computer Science as well as a challenge in Information Technologies where the current programming paradigm states that only symbolic computations are possible on higher order…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the family of functions $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+...$ which are analytic in the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}=\{z: |z|<1 \}$, and denote by $\pe$ of functions $p(z)=z+p_1z+p_2z^2+...$ analytic in $\de$ such that $p(z)$ is in $\pe$…

Let $W$ be a subset of the set of real points of a real algebraic variety $X$. We investigate which functions $f: W \to \mathbb R$ are the restrictions of rational functions on $X$. We introduce two new notions: ${\it curve-rational \,…

We develop the theory of minimal realizations and factorizations of rational functions where the coefficient space is a ring of the type introduced in our previous work, the scaled quaternions, which includes as special cases the…

Regarding quaternions as normal matrices, we first characterize the $2\times 2$ matrix-valued functions, defined on subsets of quaternions, whose values are quaternions. Then we investigate the regularity of quaternionic-valued functions,…

A tropical polynomial in nr variables divided into blocks of r variables each, is r-symmetric, if it is invariant under the action of Sn that permutes the blocks. For r=1 we call these tropical polynomials symmetric. We can define…

Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to…

We discuss when two rational functions $f$ and $g$ can have the same measure of maximal entropy. The polynomial case was completed by (Beardon, Levin, Baker-Eremenko,Schmidt-Steinmetz, etc., 1980s-90s), and we address the rational case…

Polynomials whose coefficients, roots, and critical points lie in the ring of rational integers are called nice polynomials. In this paper, we present a general method for investigating such polynomials. We extend our results from the ring…

In the present article we describe a class of algebraic curves on which rational functions of two arguments may reach all their possible limiting values. We also solve a similar question for functions that can be represented as a uniform…

In 2012 Chen and Singer introduced the notion of discrete residues for rational functions as a complete obstruction to rational summability. More explicitly, for a given rational function f(x), there exists a rational function g(x) such…
