This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…

We investigate polynomials that satisfy simultaneous orthogonality conditions with respect to several measures on the unit circle. We generalize the direct and inverse Szeg\H{o} recurrence relations, identify the analogues of the Verblunsky…

We show that smooth curves of monic complex polynomials $P_a (Z)=Z^n+\sum_{j=1}^n a_j Z^{n-j}$, $a_j : I \to \mathbb C$ with $I \subset \mathbb R$ a compact interval, have absolutely continuous roots in a uniform way. More precisely, there…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In…

We present a new explicit family of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle with a dense point spectrum. This family is expressed in terms of q-hypergeometric function of type ${_2}\phi_1$. The orthogonality measure is the wrapped…

We present the formula for the number of monic irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$ where the coefficients of $x^{n-1}$ and $x$ vanish for $n\ge3$. In particular, we give a relation between rational…

We present a sufficient condition for a self-inversive polynomial to have a fixed number of roots on the complex unit circle. We also prove that these roots are simple when that condition is satisfied. This generalizes the condition found…

Considering the L-function of exponential sums associated to a polynomial over a finite field F_q, Deligne proved that a reciprocal root's p-adic order is a rational number in the interval [0, 1]. Based on hypergeometric theory, in this…

The range of a trigonometric polynomial with complex coefficients can be interpreted as the image of the unit circle under a Laurent polynomial. We show that this range is contained in a real algebraic subset of the complex plane. Although…

In this paper, we consider polynomials of degree $n$, for which the inverse image of $[-1,1]$ consists of two Jordan arcs. We prove that the four endpoints of these arcs form an ${\cal O}(1/n)$-net in the complex plane.
