The even weight period polynomial relations in the double shuffle Lie algebra $\mathfrak{ds}$ were discovered by Ihara, and completely classified by the second author by relating them to restricted even period polynomials associated to cusp…
In recent years, a number of papers have been devoted to the study of roots of period polynomials of modular forms. Here, we study cohomological analogues of the Eichler-Shimura period polynomials corresponding to higher $L$-derivatives. We…
We associate to a semisimple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ a sequence of polynomials $P_{\ell,\mathfrak{g}}(x)\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$ in $r$ variables, where $r$ is the rank of $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\ell=0,1,2,\ldots $. The polynomials…
Inspired by the framework of operational methods and based on the generating functions of Legendre-Gould Hopper polynomials and Sheffer sequences, we discuss certain new mixed type polynomials and their important properties. We show that…
Theory of motivic superpolynomials is developed, including its extension to algebraic links colored by rows, relations to $L$-functions of plane curve singularities, the justification of the motivic versions of Weak Riemann Hypothesis, and…
There have been a number of recent works on the theory of period polynomials and their zeros. In particular, zeros of period polynomials have been shown to satisfy a "Riemann Hypothesis" in both classical settings and for cohomological…
Some combinatorial aspects of relations between multiple zeta values of depths 2 and 3 and period polynomials are discussed.
We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…
New bispectral polynomials orthogonal on a Bannai-Ito bi-lattice (uniform quadri-lattice) are obtained from an unconventional truncation of the untruncated Bannai-Ito and complementary Bannai-Ito polynomials. A complete characterization of…
We solve the connection coefficient problem between the Al-Salam-Chihara polynomials and the q-Hermite polynomials, and we use the resulting identity to answer a question from probability theory. We also derive the distribution of some…
It was observed by Bump et al. that Ehrhart polynomials in a special family exhibit properties similar to the Riemann {\zeta} function. The construction was generalized by Matsui et al. to a larger family of reflexive polytopes coming from…
We show that there is a relationship between modular forms and totally odd multiple zeta values, by relating the matrix $E_{N,r}$, whose entries are given by the polynomial representations of the Ihara action, with even period polynomials.…
The exceptional Racah and q-Racah polynomials are constructed. Together with the exceptional Laguerre, Jacobi, Wilson and Askey-Wilson polynomials discovered by the present authors in 2009, they exhaust the generic exceptional orthogonal…
We classify all self-reciprocal polynomials arising from reversed Dickson polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{F}_p$, where $p$ is prime. As a consequence, we also obtain coterm polynomials arising from reversed Dickson polynomials.
In this note, by counting some colored plane trees we obtain several binomial identities. These identities can be viewed as specific evaluations of certain generalizations of the Narayana polynomials. As consequences, it provides…
The $q$-Racah polynomials are expressed in terms of certain ratios of scalar products of Bethe states associated with Bethe equations of either homogeneous or inhomogeneous type. This result is obtained by combining the theory of Leonard…
In this article, a new approach based on linear algebra is adopted to study a hybrid Sheffer polynomial sequences. The recurrence relations and differential equation for these polynomials are derived by using the properties and…
The Schinzel Hypothesis is a celebrated conjecture in number theory linking polynomial values and prime numbers. In the same vein we investigate the common divisors of values $P_1(n),\ldots, P_s(n)$ of several polynomials. We deduce this…
We show that a period polynomial introduced by the Lehmers coincides with a generalized Wilf polynomial.
A novel family of $-1$ orthogonal polynomials called the Chihara polynomials is characterized. The polynomials are obtained from a "continuous" limit of the complementary Bannai-Ito polynomials, which are the kernel partners of the…
