In this paper, we concentrate on counting and testing dominant polynomials with integer coefficients. A polynomial is called dominant if it has a simple root whose modulus is strictly greater than the moduli of its remaining roots. In…

We introduce certain special polynomials in an arbitrary number of indeterminates over a finite field. These polynomials generalize the special polynomials associated to the Goss zeta function and Goss-Dirichlet $L$-functions over the ring…

The $T$-adic exponential sum of a polynomial in one variable is studied. An explicit arithmetic polygon in terms of the highest two exponents of the polynomial is proved to be a lower bound of the Newton polygon of the $C$-function of the…

The aim of this paper is to give an overview of some inequalities about $L^p$-norms ($p= 1$ or $p= 2$) of harmonic (periodic) and non-harmonic trigonometric polynomials. Among the material covered, we mention Ingham's Inequality about 2…

We investigate the problem of showing that the values of a given polynomial are smooth (i.e., have no large prime factors) a positive proportion of the time. Although some results exist that bound the number of smooth values of a polynomial…

Motivated by the work of Prajapati \emph{et al.} \cite{PAA}, here we study some explicit form of the generalized Laguerre polynomials $L_{\lfloor\frac{n}{q}\rfloor}^{(\alpha,\beta)}(z)$, when $q=1$.

Let K be a field and let S = K[x_1, ..., x_n] be a polynomial ring. Consider a homogenous ideal I in S. Let t_i denote reg(Tor_i (S/I, K)), the maximal degree of an ith syzygy of S/I. We prove bounds on the numbers t_i for i > n/2 purely in…

In this paper, we obtain several new factorization results for certain classes of polynomials having integer coefficients. In doing so, we use the information about prime factorization of the value taken up by such polynomials and their…

We establish a generalization of Bourgain double recurrence theorem by proving that for any map $T$ acting on a probability space $(X,\mathcal{A},\mu)$, and for any non-constant polynomials $P, Q$ mapping natural numbers to themselves, for…

For any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ and any positive integer $n$ we count the number of monic polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with nonzero constant coefficient and a self-reciprocal factor of any specified degree. An application…

Consider the divisor sum $\sum_{n\leq N}\tau(n^2+2bn+c)$ for integers $b$ and $c$ which satisfy certain extra conditions. For this average sum we obtain an explicit upper bound, which is close to the optimal. As an application we improve…

Let $f_n$ be a random polynomial of degree $n$, whose coefficients are independent and identically distributed random variables with mean-zero and variance one. Let $\Delta(f_n)$ denote the discriminant of $f_n$, that is $\Delta(f_n) =…

We provide an elementary and self-contained derivation of formulae for products and ratios of characteristic polynomials from classical groups using classical results due to Weyl and Littlewood.

Recent theorems of Dubickas and Mossinghoff use auxiliary polynomials to give lower bounds on the Weil height of an algebraic number $\alpha$ under certain assumptions on $\alpha$. We prove a theorem which introduces an auxiliary polynomial…

Let $L^2(X,\Sigma,\mu,\tau)$ be a measure-preserving system, with $\tau$ a $\mathbb{Z}$-action. In this note, we prove that the ergodic averages along integer-valued polynomials, $P(n)$, \[ M_N(f):= \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n \leq N} \tau^{P(n)} f…

The paper provides an estimate of the total variation distance between distributions of polynomials defined on a space equipped with a logarithmically concave measure in terms of the $L^2$-distance between these polynomials.

Let $f(x_1,...,x_k)$ be a polynomial over a field $K$. This paper considers such questions as the enumeration of the number of nonzero coefficients of $f$ or of the number of coefficients equal to $\alpha\in K^*$. For instance, if $K=\ff_q$…

The ring of dual numbers over a ring $R$ is $R[\alpha] = R[x]/(x^2)$, where $\alpha$ denotes $x+(x^2)$. For any finite commutative ring $R$, we characterize null polynomials and permutation polynomials on $R[\alpha]$ in terms of the…

In the present paper a new mean value theorem for polynomials of special form is obtained. The case of sums on vertices of a regular polygon is studied. A criterion for a certain equation to be satisfied is obtained.

Let n be a positive integer. We consider the Sylvester Resultant of f and g, where f is a generic polynomial of degree 2 or 3 and g is a generic polynomial of degree n. If f is a quadratic polynomial, we find the resultant's height. If f is…
