An integer-valued multiplicative function $f$ is said to be polynomially-defined if there is a nonconstant separable polynomial $F(T)\in \mathbb{Z}[T]$ with $f(p)=F(p)$ for all primes $p$. We study the distribution in coprime residue…
Let $\chi_{-f}$ be the odd quadratic Dirichlet character of conductor $f$, and let $\mathrm{m}(P)$ denote the Mahler measure of a polynomial $P$. In 1984, Chinburg conjectured that for any such $\chi_{-f}$ there exist an integral bivariate…
We express the Mahler measure of an exact polynomial in arbitrarily many variables in terms of Deligne-Beilinson cohomology. We then focus on the relationship between the Mahler measure of four-variable exact polynomials and the special…
The objective of this paper is, in the main, twofold: Firstly, to develop an algebraic setting for dealing with Bell polynomials and related extensions. Secondly, based on the author's previous work on multivariate Stirling polynomials…
In signal processing the Rudin-Shapiro polynomials have good autocorrelation properties and their values on the unit circle are small. Binary sequences with low autocorrelation coefficients are of interest in radar, sonar, and communication…
We introduce the ratio of the number of roots, not equal to 1 in modulus, of a reciprocal polynomial $R_d(x)$ to its degree $d$. For some sequences of reciprocal polynomials we show that the ratio has a limit $L$ when $d$ tends to infinity.…
For a monic polynomial $Q_n$ of degree $n$, let $Q_{n, k}$ be its $k$-th derivative normalized to be monic. Under the only assumption that the sequence $\{Q_n\}$ has a weak* limiting zero distribution (an empirical distribution of zeros)…
We prove that sparse resultants having Mahler measure equal to zero are those whose Newton polytope has dimension one. We then compute the Mahler measure of resultants in dimension two, and examples in dimension three and four. Finally, we…
We introduce the quaternionic Mahler measure for non-commutative polynomials, extending the classical complex Mahler measure. We establish the existence of quaternionic Mahler measure for slice regular polynomials in one and two variables.…
In general, while obtaining the probability density function of sums and products of shifted random variables, ordinary analytical methods such as Fourier and Mellin transforms tend to provide integrals which cannot be expressed in terms of…
Let $M_{d,n}(q)$ denote the number of monic irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[x_1, x_2, \ldots , x_n]$ of degree $d$. We show that for a fixed degree $d$, the sequence $M_{d,n}(q)$ converges $q$-adically to an explicitly determined…
This paper considers MEP - Mixed Exponential Polynomials as one class of real exponential polynomials. We introduce a method for proving the positivity of MEP inequalities over positive intervals using the Maclaurin series to approximate…
We consider a bounded radial function f. B. Korenblum and K.E.Zhu give a case where we have equality between the limit near the boundary of the unit disc of the Berezin transform and the limit of the normalized Mellin coefficient when one…
Given a prime $p$, let $P(t)$ be a non-constant monic polynomial in $t$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ of $p$-adic integers. Let $X_{n}$ be an $n \times n$ random matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ with independent entries that lie in any residue…
We study the probability that a random polynomial with integer coefficients is reducible when factored over the rational numbers. Using computer-generated data, we investigate a number of different models, including both monic and non-monic…
This article investigates the Mahler measure of a family of 2-variate polynomials, denoted by $P_d, d\geq 1$, unbounded in both degree and genus. By using a closed formula for the Mahler measure introduced in "Volume function and Mahler…
We discuss a special function (polyexponential) that extends the natural exponential function and also the exponential integral. The basic properties of the polyexponential are listed and some applications are given. In particular, it is…
We first provide some properties of the Mellin transform of nonnegative random variables, such that monotonicity, injectivity and effect of size biasing. Convergence of Mellin transforms is also entirely formalized through convergence in…
We describe a numerical algorithm for evaluating the numbers of roots minus the number of poles contained in a region based on the argument principle with the function of interest being written as a Mellin transformation of a usually…
