We examine the maximal number of zeros a polynomial of degree at most n with constrained coefficients may have at 1. Our results are essentially sharp and extend earlier results of this variety. An interesting connection to certain…

Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers with $p \geq 5$ such that $p || (N + 1)$. In a previous paper, we showed that there is a cuspform $f$ of weight 2 and level $\Gamma_0(N^2)$ whose $\ell$-th Fourier coefficient is congruent to $\ell + 1$…

Given a zero-dimensional ideal I in a polynomial ring, many computations start by finding univariate polynomials in I. Searching for a univariate polynomial in I is a particular case of considering the minimal polynomial of an element in…

We investigate clones in the interval between the group polynomials and the ring polynomials of ${\mathbb Z}_8$. This is the simplest open case of the problem, as the answer is known for ${\mathbb Z}_{p^2}$ (with $p$ prime) and, in general,…

The triangle of sorted binomial coefficients $\left\langle {n \atop k} \right\rangle = \binom{n}{\lfloor \frac{n - k}{2} \rfloor}$ for $0 \leq k \leq n$ has appeared several times in recent combinatorial works but has evaded dedicated…

For a Noetherian local ring (R, m) having a finite residue field of cardinality q, we study the connections between the ideal Z(R) of R[x], which is the set of polynomials that vanish on R, and the ideal Z(m), the polynomials that vanish on…

We study polynomials with integer coefficients which become Eisenstein polynomials after the additive shift of a variable. We call such polynomials shifted Eisenstein polynomials. We determine an upper bound on the maximum shift that is…

Let $z\ne \pm1,w^2$ be a fixed integer, and let $f(t)\ne g(t)^2$ be a fixed polynomial over the integers. It is shown that the subset of primes $p\geq 2$ such that $z$ and $f(z)$ is a pair of simultaneous primitive roots modulo $p$ has…

Let $(\mathcal{O}_n, \mathfrak{m})$ denote the ring of germs of holomorphic functions $\mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}$, and let $I\subseteq \mathcal{O}_n$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. Demailly and Pham showed that $\mathrm{lct}(I) \geq…

Kopparty and Wang studied in [3] the relation between the roots of a univariate polhynomial over GF(q) and the zero-nonzero pattern of its coefficients. We generalize their results to polynomials in more variables.

Let $\iota:K\hookrightarrow L\cong K(x)$ be a simple transcendental extension of valued fields, where $K$ is equipped with a valuation $\nu$ of rank 1. That is, we assume given a rank 1 valuation $\nu$ of $K$ and its extension $\nu'$ to…

Let $P(z)$ be a polynomial of degree $n$. In $2004$, Aziz and Rather \cite{aziz2004some} investigated the dependence of \[\bigg|P(Rz)-\alpha P(z)+\beta\biggl\{\biggl(\frac{R+1}{2}\biggr)^n-|\alpha|\biggr\}P(z)\bigg|, \ \text{for} \ z \in…

We give a first-order definition of key polynomials, we show the links with previous definitions, that it is relevant to study key degrees, and to use a kind of valuations that we call partially multiplicative. We also prove or reprove…

Suppose $p$ is a prime, $t$ is a positive integer, and $f\!\in\!\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a univariate polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients of absolute value $<\!p^t$. We show that for any fixed $t$, we can compute the number of roots in…
