We compute the maximum number of rational points at which a homogeneous polynomial can vanish on a weighted projective space over a finite field, provided that the first weight is equal to one. This solves a conjecture by Aubry, Castryck,…

Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…

We provide an explicit infinite family of integers $m$ such that all the polynomials of ${\mathbb F}_{2^n}[x]$ of degree $m$ have maximal differential uniformity for $n$ large enough. We also prove a conjecture of the third author in these…

In this paper we construct infinite sequences of monic irreducible polynomials with coefficients in odd prime fields by means of a transformation introduced by Cohen in 1992. We make no assumptions on the coefficients of the first…

In the present paper we consider $F_k(x)=x^{k}-\sum_{t=0}^{k-1}x^t,$ the characteristic polynomial of the $k$-th order Fibonacci sequence, the latter denoted $G(k,l).$ We determine the limits of the real roots of certain odd and even degree…

We give an upper bound in O(d ^((n+1)/2)) for the number of critical points of a normal random polynomial with degree d and at most n variables. Using the large deviation principle for the spectral value of large random matrices we obtain…

The Sendov conjecture asserts that if $p(z) = \prod_{j=1}^{N}(z-z_j)$ is a polynomial with zeros $|z_j| \leq 1$, then each disk $|z-z_j| \leq 1$ contains a zero of $p'$. Our purpose is the following: Given a zero $z_j$ of order $n \geq 2$,…

Suppose L is any finite algebraic extension of either the ordinary rational numbers or the p-adic rational numbers. Also let g_1,...,g_k be polynomials in n variables, with coefficients in L, such that the total number of monomial terms…

In this paper we introduce and develop the concept of expansivity of a tuple whose entries are elements from the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x]$. As an inverse problem, we examine how to recover a tuple from the expanded tuple at any given…

In this paper we study a particular class of polynomials. We study the distribution of their zeros, including the zeros of their derivatives as well as the interaction between this two. We prove a weak variant of the sendov conjecture in…

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…

Let $(K,v)$ be a henselian valued field. Let $\mathbb{P}^{dless}\subset K[x]$ be the set of monic, irreducible polynomials which are defectless and have degree greater than one. For a certain equivalence relation $\,\approx\,$ on…

Given a prime power $q$ and positive integers $m,t,e$ with $e > mt/2$, we determine the number of all monic irreducible polynomials $f(x)$ of degree $m$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that $f(x^t)$ contains an irreducible factor…

Let $\{Q^{(\alpha)}_{n,\lambda}\}_{n\geq 0}$ be the sequence of monic orthogonal polynomials with respect the Gegenbauer-Sobolev inner product $$\langle f,g\rangle_{S}:=\int_{-1}^{1}f(x)g(x)(1-x^{2})^{\alpha-\frac{1}{2}}dx+\lambda…

We estimate the number of possible types degree patterns of $k$-lacunary polynomials of degree $t < p$ which split completely modulo $p$. The result is based on a combination of a bound on the number of zeros of lacunary polynomials with…

We study residual polynomials, $R_{x_0,n}^{(\mathfrak{e})}$, $\mathfrak{e}\subset\mathbb{R}$, $x_0\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\mathfrak{e}$, which are the degree at most $n$ polynomials with $R(x_0)=1$ that minimize the $\sup$ norm on…

The study of inner and cyclic functions in $\ell^p_A$ spaces requires a better understanding of the zeros of the so-called optimal polynomial approximants. We determine that a point of the complex plane is the zero of an optimal polynomial…

We study the irreducibility of Wronskian Hermite polynomials labelled by partitions. It is known that these polynomials factor as a power of x times a remainder polynomial. We show that the remainder polynomial is irreducible for the…
