In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…
Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $k, P:V\to k, d\geq 3$. We show the existence of a function $C(r,d)$ such that $rank (P)\leq C(r,d)$ for any field $k,char (k)>d$, a finite-dimensional $k$-vector space $V$ and a polynomial $P:V\to k$…

Let $n$ be an arbitrary integer, let $p$ be a prime factor of $n$. Denote by $\omega_1$ the $p^{th}$ primitive unity root, $\omega_1:=e^{\frac{2\pi i}{p}}$. Define $\omega_i:=\omega_1^i$ for $0\leq i\leq p-1$ and…
Analysing the cubic sectors of a real polynomial of degree n, a modification of the Newton Rule is Signs is proposed with which stricter upper bound on the number of real roots can be found. A new necessary condition for reality of the…
We state a kind of Euclidian division theorem: given a polynomial P(x) and a divisor d of the degree of P, there exist polynomials h(x),Q(x),R(x) such that P(x) = h(Q(x)) +R(x), with deg h=d. Under some conditions h,Q,R are unique, and Q is…
Suppose that f has continuous derivatives thru order r+1 for x>0, and let P_{c} denote the Taylor polynomial to f of order r at x=c,c>0. In a previous paper of the author, it was shown that if r is an odd whole number and the (r+1)st…
A polynomial is expansive if all of its roots lie outside the unit circle. We define some special determinants involving the coefficients of a real polynomial and formulate necessary and sufficient conditions for expansivity using these…

We prove that if a polynomial has a root mod $p$ for every large prime $p$, then it has a real root. As an application, we show that the primes can't be covered by finitely many positive definite binary quadratic forms.
We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…
A polynomial x^3+px^2+qx+r with the condition pr^(1/3)+ 3r^(2/3)+q=0 we call a Ramanujan cubic polynomial (RCP). We study different interest properties of RCP, in particular, an important role of a parameter pq/r. We prove some new…
