Structural properties of unitary groups over local, not necessarily commutative, rings are developed, with applications to the computation of the orders of these groups (when finite) and to the degrees of the irreducible constituents of the…

We prove the absolute convergence of orbital integrals on a unitary group over a non-archimedean local field in any positive characteristic.

We generalize Carlitz' result on the number of self reciprocal monic irreducible polynomials over finite fields by showing that similar explicit formula hold for the number of irreducible polynomials obtained by a fixed quadratic…

The main result of the paper is the construction of explicit uniformly bounded basis in the spaces of complex homogenous polynomials on the unit ball of $C^3$, extending an earlier result of the author in the $C^2$ case

The purpose of this note is to extend in a simple and unified way the known results on interlacing of zeros of paraorthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. These polynomials can be regarded as the characteristic polynomials of any matrix…

We consider the problem of defining polynomials over function fields of positive characteristic. Among other results, we show that the following assertions are true. 1. Let $\G_p$ be an algebraic extension of a field of $p$ elements and…

This is a report on a joint project in experimental mathematics with Jonas Bergstr\"om and Carel Faber where we obtain information about modular forms by counting curves over finite fields.

Via counting over finite fields, we derive explicit formulas for the E-polynomials and Euler characteristics of GL(d)- and PGL(d)-character varieties of free groups. We prove a positivity property for these polynomials and relate them to…

We compute an analogue of Pascal's triangle enriched in bilinear forms over a finite field. This gives an arithmetically meaningful count of the ways to choose $j$ ring homomorphisms into an algebraic closure from an \'etale extension of…

With view to applications, we establish a correspondence between two problems: (i) the problem of finding continuous positive definite extensions of functions $F$ which are defined on open bounded domains $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}$, on the…

In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

We develop a holomorphic functional calculus for (multivalued linear) operators on locally convex vector spaces. This includes the case of fractional powers along Lipschitz curves.

In this paper, we investigate the properties of locally univalent and multivalent planar harmonic mappings. First, we discuss the coefficient estimates and Landau's Theorem for some classes of locally univalent harmonic mappings, and then…

Certain inequalities between the values of the modular and the norm in the Orlicz spaces are established. These inequalities are applied then to the theory of solvability of nonlinear integral equations of Hammerstein type.

Answering a question of Frank Calegari, we extend some of our earlier results on dimension of fixed point spaces of elements in irreducible linear groups. We consider characteristic polynomials rather than just fixed spaces.

For all simple and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that its defect is the product of the effective degrees of the complete set of key polynomials associated. As a consequence, we obtain a local uniformization theorem for…

The purpose of this note is to survey a methodology to solve systems of polynomial equations and inequalities. The techniques we discuss use the algebra of multivariate polynomials with coefficients over a field to create large-scale linear…

We enhance the approximation capabilities of algebraic polynomials by composing them with homeomorphisms. This composition yields families of functions that remain dense in the space of continuous functions, while enabling more accurate…

We introduce two extensions of the $\lambda$-calculus with a probabilistic choice operator, $\Lambda_\oplus^{cbv}$ and $\Lambda_\oplus^{cbn}$, modeling respectively call-by-value and call-by-name probabilistic computation. We prove that…
