Given an order, a commutative ring whose additive group is free of finite rank, a natural computational question is whether a fixed univariate polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ has a root in this ring. In this paper, we show that the…
We investigate the behavior of the higher-order degrees, db_n, of a finitely presented group G. These db_n are functions from H^1(G;Z) to Z whose values are the degrees certain higher-order Alexander polynomials. We show that if def(G) is…
The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…
We construct the polynomial induction functor, which is the right adjoint to the restriction functor from the category of polynomial representations of a general linear group to the category of representations of its Weyl group. This…
A string link S can be closed in a canonical way to produce an ordinary closed link L. We also consider a twisted closing which produces a knot K. We give a formula for the Conway polynomial of L as a product of the Conway polynomial of K…
We establish, utilizing the Hardy-Littlewood Circle Method, an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of primes whose differences lie in the image of a fixed polynomial. We also include a generalization of this result where differences…
In this paper, we pose lots of challenging conjectures on congruences for the sums involving binomial coefficients and Ap\'ery-like numbers modulo $p^3$, where $p$ is an odd prime.
In this paper we prove a noncommutative version of Hardy-Littlewood inequalities relating a function and its Fourier coefficients on the group $SU(2)$. As a consequence, we use it to obtain lower bounds for the $L^p-L^q$ norms of Fourier…
We consider a multidimensional version of an inequality due to Leray as a substitute for Hardy's inequality in the case $p=n\geq2.$ In this paper we provide an optimal Sobolev-type improvement of this substitute, analogous to the…
The volume conjecture and its generalizations say that the colored Jones polynomial corresponding to the N-dimensional irreducible representation of sl(2;C) of a (hyperbolic) knot evaluated at exp(c/N) grows exponentially with respect to N…
We study the question up to which power an irreducible integer-valued polynomial that is not absolutely irreducible can factor uniquely. For example, for integer-valued polynomials over principal ideal domains with square-free denominator,…
We reconsider topological string realization of SU(N) Chern-Simons theory on S^3. At large N, for every knot K in S^3, we obtain a polynomial A_K(x,p;Q) in two variables x,p depending on the t'Hooft coupling parameter Q=e^{Ng_s}. Its…
Explicit answer is given for the HOMFLY polynomial of the figure eight knot $4_1$ in arbitrary symmetric representation R=[p]. It generalizes the old answers for p=1 and 2 and the recently derived results for p=3,4, which are fully…
In this paper we investigate the following related problems: (A) the separation of $p$-adic roots of integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height; and (B) counting integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height with…
A "Littlewood polynomial" is a polynomial whose coefficients are all 1 or -1. The set of all complex roots of all Littlewood polynomials exhibits many complicated, beautiful and fascinating patterns. Some fractal regions of this set closely…
We describe a method, based on the theory of Macdonald-Koornwinder polynomials, for proving bounded Littlewood identities. Our approach provides an alternative to Macdonald's partial fraction technique and results in the first examples of…
In this paper, we study the relationship between iterated resultant and multivariate discriminant. We show that, for generic form $f(X_n)$ with even degree $d$, if the polynomial is squarefreed after each iteration, the multivariate…
In this paper we study the (classical) Frobenius problem, namely the problem of finding the largest integer that cannot be represented as a nonnegative integral combination of given relatively prime (strictly) positive integers (known as…
We provide upper bounds on the density of a symmetric generalized arithmetic progression lacking nonzero elements of the form h(n) for natural numbers n, or h(p) with p prime, for appropriate polynomials h with integer coefficients. The…
We show that for any even positive integer d there exist polynomials x and y with integer coefficients such that deg(x) = 2d, deg(y) = 3d and deg(x^3 - y^2) = d + 5.
