We prove that for any prime $\ell$, any finite group has as many irreducible complex characters of degree prime to $\ell$ as the normalizers of its Sylow $\ell$-subgroups. This equality was conjectured by John McKay. The conjecture was…

We prove that in every ring of generalised power series with non-positive real exponents and coefficients in a field of characteristic zero, every series admits a factorisation into finitely many irreducibles of infinite support, the number…

Artin solved Hilbert's 17th problem, proving that a real polynomial in $n$ variables that is positive semidefinite is a sum of squares of rational functions, and Pfister showed that only $2^n$ squares are needed. In this paper, we…

The Jacobian conjecture over a field of characteristic zero is considered directly in view of the nonlinear partial differential equations it is associated with. Exploring the integrals of such partial differential equations, this work…

Let $p$ be a prime and $b(x)$ be an irreducible polynomial of degree $k$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$. Let $d\geq 1$ be an integer. Consider the following question: Is $b(x^d)$ irreducible? We derive necessary conditions for $b(x^d)$ to be…

We study identities of finite dimensional algebras over a field of characteristic zero, graded by an arbitrary groupoid $\Gamma$. First we prove that its graded colength has a polynomially bounded growth. For any graded simple algebra $A$…

Let $\mathcal{E}_d^{(s)}$ denote the set of coefficient vectors $(a_1,\dots,a_d)\in \mathbb{R}^d$ of contractive polynomials $x^d+a_1x^{d-1}+\dots+a_d\in \mathbb{R}[x]$ that have exactly $s$ pairs of complex conjugate roots and let…

Using a result of Robertson \textit{[Proc. Edinburgh Math. Soc. (2), 1976]}, we introduce a notion of differentiation of maps on certain classes of unital commutative C*-algebras. We then derive C*-algebraic Gauss-Lucas theorem and…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, let G=GL_n be the general linear group over $k$, let g=gl_n be its Lie algebra and let $D_s$ be subalgebra of the divided power algebra of g^* spanned by the divided power…

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…

We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…

In light of the well-known fact that the $n$th divided difference of any polynomial of degree $m$ must be zero while $m<n$,the present paper proves the $(\alpha,\beta)$-inversion formula conjectured by Hsu and Ma [J. Math. Res. $\&$…

We discuss the existence of zero coefficients in the powers of the determinant polynomial of order $n$. D. G. Glynn proved that the coefficients of the $m$th power of the determinant polynomial are all nonzero, if $m = p-1$ with a prime…

Let $f:\mathbb{K}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{K}^m$ be a generically finite polynomial map of degree $d$ between affine spaces. In arXiv:1411.5011 we proved that if $\mathbb{K}$ is the field of complex or real numbers, then the set $S_f$ of points…

In this paper, we prove several theorems on systems of polynomials with at least one positive real zero based on the theory of conceive polynomials. These theorems provide sufficient conditions for systems of multivariate polynomials…

A well-known conjecture of McMullen, proved by Billera, Lee and Stanley, describes the face numbers of simple polytopes. The necessary and sufficient condition is that the toric g-vector of the polytope is an M-vector, that is, the vector…

The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…

Proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra can be divided up into three groups according to the techniques involved: proofs that rely on real or complex analysis, algebraic proofs, and topological proofs. Algebraic proofs make use of the…

For $ f\in\mathbb{Z}[X] $ an irreducible polynomial of degree $ n $, the Cilleruelo's conjecture states that$$\log(\mbox{lcm}(f(1),\dots,f(M)))\sim(n-1)M\log M$$as $ M\rightarrow+\infty $, where $ \mbox{lcm}(f(1),\dots,f(M)) $ is the least…

It is well known that the Bernoulli polynomials $\mathbf{B}_n(x)$ have nonintegral coefficients for $n \geq 1$. However, ten cases are known so far in which the derivative $\mathbf{B}'_n(x)$ has only integral coefficients. One may assume…
