The paper studies the complex 1-dimensional polynomial vector fields with real coefficients under topological orbital equivalence preserving the separatrices of the pole at infinity. The number of generic strata is determined, and a…

Given $H\subseteq \mathbb{C}$ two natural objects to study are the set of zeros of polynomials with coefficients in $H$, $$\{z\in \mathbb{C}: \exists k>0,\, \exists (a_n)\in H^{k+1}, \sum_{n=0}^{k}a_{n}z^n=0\},$$ and the set of zeros of…

We study two notions of concentration for homogeneous polynomials of degree $N$ in $d+1$ complex variables on the unit sphere: a local notion measuring the fraction of the $L^2$-norm supported on a measurable subset; and a global notion…

Given a real polynomial $p$ with only real zeroes, we find upper and lower bounds for the number of non-real zeroes of the differential polynomial $$ F_{\varkappa}[p](z):= p(z)p''(z)-\varkappa[p'(z)]^2,$$ where $\varkappa$ is a real number.…

For a simplicial complex $\Delta$, the graded Betti number $\beta_{i,j}(k[\Delta])$ of the Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta]$ over a field $k$ has a combinatorial interpretation due to Hochster. Terai and Hibi showed that if $\Delta$ is the…

Honda and Tate showed that the isogeny classes of abelian varieties of dimension $g$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ are classified in terms of $q$-Weil polynomials of degree $2g$, that is, monic integer polynomials whose set of complex…

Any discrete distribution with support on $\{0,\ldots, d\}$ can be constructed as the distribution of sums of Bernoulli variables. We prove that the class of $d$-dimensional Bernoulli variables $\boldsymbol{X}=(X_1,\ldots, X_d)$ whose sums…

We note that the recent polynomial proofs of the spherical and complex plank covering problems by Zhao and Ortega-Moreno give some general information on zeros of real and complex polynomials restricted to the unit sphere. As a corollary of…

We study the computational limits of the following general hypothesis testing problem. Let H=H_n be an \emph{arbitrary} undirected graph on n vertices. We study the detection task between a ``null'' Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph G(n,p)…

In this paper, we characterize arbitrary polynomial vector fields on $S^n$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for a degree one vector field on the odd-dimensional sphere $S^{2n-1}$ to be Hamiltonian. Additionally, we…

Let X be a projective scheme carrying a circle action S with isolated fixed points. We associate a simplicial complex Delta(X,S) of "closure chains" using a refinement of its Morse/Bialynicki-Birula decomposition. If this decomposition is a…

We begin with the following question: given a closed disc $\bar{D}$ in the complex plane and a complex-valued function F in $C(\bar{D})$, is the uniform algebra on $\bar{D}$ generated by z and F equal to $C(\bar{D})$ ? When F is in…

Inspired by the theory of hyperbolic polynomials and Hodge theory, we develop the theory of Lorentzian polynomials on cones. This notion captures the Hodge-Riemann relations of degree zero and one. Motivated by fundamental properties of…

We present some enumerative and structural results for flag homology spheres. For a flag homology sphere $\Delta$, we show that its $\gamma$-vector $\gamma^\Delta=(1,\gamma_1,\gamma_2,\ldots)$ satisfies: \begin{align*} \gamma_j=0,\text{ for…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a simple thin polyomino and $\Bbbk$ a field. Let $R$ be the toric $\Bbbk$-algebra associated to $\mathcal{P}$. Write the Hilbert series of $R$ as $h_{R}(t)/(1-t)^{\dim(R)}$. We show that…

Assume G is a finite abstract simplicial complex with f-vector (v0,v1, ...), and generating function f(x) = sum(k=1 v(k-1) x^k = v0 x + v1 x^2+ v2 x^3 + ..., the Euler characteristic of G can be written as chi(G)=f(0)-f(-1). We study here…

For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…

Notions of sesquiconstructible complexes and odd iterated stellar subdivisions are introduced, and some of their basic properties are verified. The Charney-Davis conjecture is then proven for odd iterated stellar subdivisions of…

We investigate the symmetry component of the center variety of polynomial differential systems, corresponding to systems with an axis of symmetry in the real plane. We give a general algorithm to find this irreducible subvariety and compute…
