In this paper, we give error bounds on the number of monic irreducible polynomials $a_0+a_1x+\dots+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+x^n$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of degree $n$ with $(a_0, a_1, \dots, a_{n-1}, 1)$ lying in a fixed affine algebraic…
This paper studies the family of piecewise linear differential systems in the plane with two pieces separated by a switching curve $y=x^{m}$, where $m>1$ is an arbitrary positive. By analysing the first order Melnikov function, we give an…
Let $\xi$ be an irrational algebraic real number and $(p_k / q_k)_{k \ge 1}$ denote the sequence of its convergents. Let $(u_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a non-degenerate linear recurrence sequence of integers, which is not a polynomial sequence. We…
In this short paper we identify special systems of (an arbitrary number) N of first-order Difference Equations with nonlinear homogeneous polynomials of arbitrary degree M in their right-hand sides, which feature very simple explicit…
Following Verde-Star, Linear Algebra Appl. 627 (2021), we label families of orthogonal polynomials in the $q$-Askey scheme together with their $q$-hypergeometric representations by three sequences $x_k, h_k, g_k$ of Laurent polynomials in…
The algebras $Q_n$ describe the relationship between the roots and coefficients of a non-commutative polynomial. I.Gelfand, S.Gelfand, and V. Retakh have defined quotients of these algebras corresponding to graphs. In this work we find the…
We tersely review a recently introduced technique to identify systems of two nonlinearly-coupled Ordinary Di{\S}erential Equations (ODEs) solvable by algebraic operations; and we report some specifc examples of this kind, namely systems of…
We study the spaces $Q_m$ of $m$-quasi-invariant polynomials of the symmetric group $S_n$ in characteristic $p$. Using the representation theory of the symmetric group we describe the Hilbert series of $Q_m$ for $n=3$, proving a conjecture…
In recent decades, piecewise linear differential systems have attracted considerable attention due to their ability to describe a wide range of phenomena. A central problem, as in the theory of general planar differential systems, is to…
For each $k\geq 3$, Green proved an arithmetic $k$-cycle removal lemma for any abelian group $G$. The best known bounds relating the parameters in the lemma for general $G$ are of tower-type. For $k>3$, even in the case $G=\mathbb{F}_2^n$…
In this paper we extend three results about polycycles (also known as graphs) of planar smooth vector field to planar non-smooth vector fields (also known as piecewise vector fields, or Filippov systems). The polycycles considered here may…
We prove a lower bound of $\Omega\left(n^{1.5}\right)$ for the number of product gates in non-commutative arithmetic circuits for an explicit $n$-variate degree-$n$ polynomial $f_{n}$ (over every field). We observe that this implies that…
Let $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ be an $N$th degree polynomial that is monic and irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$. We say that $f(x)$ is {\em monogenic} if $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of…
In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the \emph{exact} number of periodic orbits for polynomial planar flows. This problem is a variant of Hilbert's 16th problem. Using a natural definition of computability, we show that the…
Let $m\neq0,\pm1$ and $n\geq 2$ be integers. The ring of algebraic integers of the pure fields of type $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[n]{m})$ is explicitly known for $n=2,3,4$. It is well known that for $n=2$, an integral basis of the pure quadratic…
Limit cycles of planar polynomial vector fields have been an active area of research for decades; the interest in periodic-orbit related dynamics comes from Hilbert's 16th problem and the fact that oscillatory states are often found in…
Let X be a smooth curve defined over the algebraic numbers, let a,b be algebraic numbers, and let f_l(x) be an algebraic family of rational maps indexed by all l in X. We study whether there exist infinitely many l in X such that both a and…
We classify all post-critically finite unicritical polynomials defined over the maximal totally real algebraic extension of ${\mathbb Q}$. Two auxiliary results used in the proof of this result may be of some independent interest. The first…
We present a new solution for fundamental problems in nonlinear dynamical systems: finding, verifying, and stabilizing cycles. The solution we propose consists of a new control method based on mixing previous states of the system (or the…
This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "typical" sequence of polynomials. We consider various types of "nice" varieties: set-theoretic and ideal-theoretic complete intersections,…
