Let K be a field. For a given valuation on K[x], we determine the structure of its graded algebra and describe its set of key polynomials, in terms of any given key polynomial of minimal degree. We also characterize valuations not admitting…

Investigating a problem posed by W. Hengartner (2000), we study the maximal valence (number of preimages of a prescribed point in the complex plane) of logharmonic polynomials, i.e., complex functions that take the form $f(z) = p(z)…

In this paper, we extend the theory of minimal limit key polynomials of valuations on the polynomial ring $\kx$. We use the theory of cuts on ordered abelian groups to show that the previous results on bounded sets of key polynomials of…

The main goal of this paper is to characterize limit key polynomials for a valuation $\nu$ on $K[x]$. We consider the set $\Psi_\alpha$ of key polynomials for $\nu$ of degree $\alpha$. We set $p$ be the exponent characteristic of $\nu$. Our…

We show for even positive integers $n$ that the quotient of the Riemann zeta values $\zeta(n+1)$ and $\zeta(n)$ satisfies the equation $$\frac{\zeta(n+1)}{\zeta(n)} = (1-\frac{1}{n}) (1-\frac{1}{2^{n+1}-1})…

The Schinzel hypothesis essentially claims that finitely many irreducible polynomials in one variable over Z simultaneously assume infinitely many prime values unless there is an obvious reason why this is impossible. We prove that under a…

Let $p(z)$ be a monic polynomial of degree $n$, with complex coefficients, and let $q(z)$ be its monic factor. We prove an asymptotically sharp inequality of the form $\|q\|_{E} \le C^n \|p\|_E$, where $\|\cdot\|_E$ denotes the sup norm on…

Let $f_n(k)$ be the number of subrings of index $k$ in $\mathbb{Z}^n$. We show that results of Brakenhoff imply a lower bound for the asymptotic growth of subrings in $\mathbb{Z}^n$, improving upon lower bounds given by Kaplan, Marcinek,…

We give a criterion whether given Eisenstein polynomials over a local field K define the same extension over K in terms of a certain non-Archimedean metric on the set of polynomials. The criterion and its proof depend on ramification…

Every finite local principal ideal ring is the homomorphic image of a discrete valuation ring of a number field, and is determined by five invariants. We present an action of a group, non-commutative in general, on the set of Eisenstein…
